    Cool, glad to see see another 19. It could be fun if they made it with that color-changing plastic or paint that turned red when it got warm!

    Might be the Arcadia release. They were really white. Plus I see a hint of pink...

    I have a Disney+ account without Hulu, and I can search and see the listings of the various Macross titles, but can't actually play the content. It tells me to upgrade/unlock with Hulu in order to watch the material.

    Given that the revival version was the third release of the Hikaru VF-1J (fourth if you count the original Hi Metal release) I doubt they will release it yet again. But this is Bandai we are talking about, so who knows. In case you weren't aware, the red stand was included with the Kakizaki VF-1A that was released a year or so ago.

    Does anyone have any knowledge of where things might stand with the releases that RightStuf had announced, given that they were apparently dissolved and merged into Crunchyroll a few months ago? Frontier and 7 were the 2 Blu-ray releases I was still hoping for, even with the recent streaming release on Disney/Hulu, since those are the only remaining Blu-rays that have yet to see English subs. (I'm excluding SDFM, since I doubt we will ever see an English subbed version of the Blu-rays in my lifetime.)

    There were some shots that appear to have been photographed out of focus, which became more obvious with the jump from DVD to Blu-ray. Is this what you're referring to? No amount of film rescanning will help those, though there could be some AI tricks which could improve them.

    As a Lego and Macross fan, this looks really cool. Plus it's based on the TV version, which doesn't seem to get enough love. Appears to be 70cm long, which would put it maybe around 1/2000 scale? Display space could be a concern, but I still want one. 😁

    I can hear Basara busting out a rendition of Rockin Around the Christmas Tree after saying, "Listen to my song!"

    We can only hope. (Like we've been hoping for how many years now?)

    What is up with all the reissues? VF-1J GBP (technically a "revival"), then VF-4, now VF-2SS? While I can appreciate them trying to keep the Macross part of the line alive, some new models like the recent VF-19 would probably be more effective. Then again, if they would reissue the army-building units like the brown VF-1A or the Regult, I bet a lot of people would bite.

    Yeah, I watched that recently, too. Makes me want to get a copy for the art book.

    If only. That thing would require its own house (or large garage) to display. It would be amazing, though.

    Wow. It would be great to see all of them on display at some point!
  14. ScrambledValkyrie
    Got mine today as well. I couldn't believe how heavy the box was. The book is nice - reminds me of Perfect Memory for SDFM. Though I would have rather had a standard case for the disks so I can keep them with my other Blurays. Looking forward to watching!
  15. ScrambledValkyrie
    As far as Frontier having English subs, you're talking about the "Shooting Star" Blu-ray set of both movies, I believe? To my knowledge English subs don't officially exist yet for the Frontier TV series -- something that gets remedied soon, I hope.
  16. ScrambledValkyrie
    What we *can* say is that the process of creating dubs would delay the distribution of these shows by who knows how long. Especially if they dubbed in multiple languages.
  17. ScrambledValkyrie
    Subs only, according to below, which is not surprising to me in the least. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2024-07-10/disney-in-u.k-is-now-streaming-macross-frontier-and-macross-delta/.213082 I don’t believe we will ever get dubbed versions of these shows, and I’m personally OK with that. I’m just glad that official English subs of Frontier now exist.
  18. ScrambledValkyrie
    Apparently Frontier and Delta are now streaming on Disney+ in the UK? https://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2024/07/11/macross-frontier-and-delta-get-released-in-the-uk-but-not-the-us/

    I came here with the intent to post this myself. Just watched it last night, and it was so much fun to see some of the original actors reprise their roles. Kinchen and Todaro were pretty good replacements. I really hope they at least finish the first 3-episode miniseries.
  20. ScrambledValkyrie
    You'd think the prospect of multiple purchases driven by the desire to army build would help encourage Bandai to go ahead and release a cannon fodder version. The DX price would be a little prohibitive of a really large squad, but buying multiples would still be tempting for many. I mean, Bandai is re-releasing the HMR VF-4, but could probably do just as well re-releasing the HMR VF-1A. I'd bet that @sh9000 (who I believe took that photo above) would be up for a few more. 😁
  21. ScrambledValkyrie
    Agreed that $190 is too steep. But that discount code that @sh9000 posted took almost $30 off, which made it low enough for me to handle. And at least it's free shipping. The idea of a potential lower-priced disk-only option is great, but I really want the OVA.
  22. ScrambledValkyrie
    I'd think it will be available in the US. Flashback was listed as being included in Disney's upcoming streaming deal (which only excluded SDFM and DYRL). That said, I'll pass on this since I already have the original release, but glad to see any Macross-related HMR being made at this point.
  23. ScrambledValkyrie
    Cool! I wonder how much it will end up costing. Hopefully less than the earlier Blu-ray box.
  24. ScrambledValkyrie
    So this would essentially be the WWM version? I already sprang for the recent Japanese remaster since it had English subs.

    I'm still holding out hope for those two.
