  1. I also asked for VF-2SS SAP, VF-2JA, Metal Siren and re-release of VF-25S Armored pack bundle(renewal version) Twich
  2. Just got this today, wow! What an adventure getting that armor on! This is my first DX VF-1! I am very excited! Twich
  3. Since I never got the renewal VF-25F or VF-25S, this might be a good thing if these get re-released as the VF-25F is with included Super Pack. I am excited that these will potentially be available on such sites as BBTS and Amazon US. Twich
  4. This is very interesting, I wonder if this is indication that "they" are trying to reinvigorate Macross II in Japan and abroad. I would love to see a DX VF-2SS! Twich
  5. Short answer, one control by student, one controlled by instructor Twich
  6. I have to admit that I am surprised and disappointed. A lot of Macross fans are key on details about this sort of thing. Maybe they will give us info in the non canon publication Variable Fighter Master File for the VF-31AX Kairos Plus. Twich
  7. I was unaware that others contributed to the Macross Compendium. I know that Macross Mecha Manual is behind because of peoples’ day jobs/lives. One can hope that someday they get updated. Twich
  8. So now that Absolute Live!!!!!! Is out in Japan on video and should be arriving elsewhere in the world, how long can we expect to wait until the official statistics on the VF-31AX Kairos Plus and SV-303 surface? How long until Egan Loo updates the Macross Compendium? I know I should have patience, but we have waited a good part of a year now. Twich
  9. I would certainly want to, but time and price will tell. I am getting this as a birthday present from the wife, but ordered it myself because she can’t stand Japanese websites. Thanks everyone! Twich
  10. Thank You! Ordered the GBP version from Mandarake, will be my first DX VF-1! Twich
  11. Sorry if this has been asked and answered, but did the VF-1J Hikaru GBP release of this fix the folding nose issue that the first VF-1J release had? Thank you, Twich
  12. I wonder with Bandai revisiting the Macross Frontier Valkyries, will we get a re-release of the VF-27? If they continue with the VF-25’s, hope we get VF-25S Armored Pack release! Twich
  13. yeah, I used a combination of Tekering's posted photos and Anymoon's posted pictures and did the best that I could. Since I am old and cant see worth a crap anymore, had my 13 year old put on the caution and no step stickers, he thought it was cool handling dad's New Macross Jet. Twich
  14. Just got Arcadia 1/60 VF-4A! Now I just to figure out where to put the decals. I’m surprised that no decal instructions came with the Valkyrie!?! Kind of makes things difficult. But love the Macross Jet! Twich
  15. looks like an articulated air brake. I like the look of it, the telling factor will be the price. Twich
  16. looks awesome, I am always up for some good old fashion Dungeons & Dragons adventures! Twich
  17. So looking at the latest pictures, it looks as though Bandai might actually offer the Hi Metal R VF-0S with rubber, rolling wheels on the landing gear and they almost looked metal on that closeup. Twich

    Arcadia VF-5000G

    since I am a social media dinosaur and do not partake of it, does the twitter post mention when we might see more than the ankles of the VF-5000G? I feel like this is some sort of 1950's bikini model reveal photo. Twich
  19. A bigger VF-1? It was called the VF-3000, the joints slipped, so it wasn’t mass produced. So, we got the surviving concept of the VF-4, which was space oriented and the VF-5000, which was kinda a refined VF-3000 concept for atmosphere. Twich

    Hi-Metal R

    Also note that it says the item will arrive in March 2023 Twich
  21. You know, the more I think about, the more that I think it is kinda a bummer that the versions of both the Movie and the Series of Macross Delta led me to believe that Hayate's Father was this tragic, misunderstood man who was doing the right thing when he dropped the dimension eater off of his intended target. And the tone and subs that I read gave me the impression that the story tellers wanted us, the audience to feel sorry for Hayate and by extension, his father for what happened because his father was just "trying to do the right thing". The copy of the movie that I have is an official Malaysian release with English subtitles, so my thought was(maybe erroneously) that these would be the closest that I would get to official subtitles for the first Macross Delta movie. So I am kinda wondering where the disconnect is? So, on to mecha stuff! Speculation-I have not seen the second Macross Delta movie in any fashion, so I wonder how powerful this SV-303 is as far as weapons, engine output and the like the so thoroughly trash Delta Platoon's VF-31 Siegfried's. I believe I heard here from someone that the YF-29 piloted by Max was initially the only pilot/mecha that could hope to be on par with this new SV-303. I cannot wait until the Macross Mecha Manual and the Macross Compendium are updated with official stats of these Variable Fighters! Twich
  22. I guess this is an instance where official and correct subtitles on the show would have provided clarity as to what really happened. Thank you for clarifying. Twich
  23. Yes, I am unclear on this as well. From My understanding, Wright Immelmann sacrificed himself, went against his orders to drop a Dimension Eater bomb on a populated area and saved some of the people some undue evaporation from its effects. While this solidified the hatred that the ruling body had for the NUNS, it saved so many of the people he had gotten to know while on the planet. Twich
  24. So, as we know, the amazing thing about the YF-29 is that it has this fold wave system which allows for many things, as Seto has pointed out, but what I also find amazing, that hasn’t really been discussed is the Energy Conversion Armor, which is double thickness with twice the energy being pumped into it, which gives it even higher armor power than the armor pack of the VF-25 Armor pack. Is this present then on the YF-29, or is it one of those things that has been added to every subsequent Valkyrie (YF-30, VF-31)? Twich
