  1. Very cool! Is that a screen at the back? [the tunnel image]
  2. Yep Jenius, i am as imperfect as those figures. I still want to get one of these Kitzconcept valks, but i am hesitant to pull the trigger.

    Macross figures

    I posted this on the wrong thread. OMG where do i begin. Ben may have lost his crotch area, back when the SDF-1 barrier exploded. He seems to have also lost his face, since he looks like a Muppet. It seems the explosion made him skinnier too. Who sculpted this? A 10 year old? Claudia looks sort of alright, but too generic. Cap Global is clearly drunk, and he looks too light skinned. That is a boy-band Rick, but i do sort of like the uniform. That looks like Lisa's stunt double. The problem is her eyes should look sort of "sad" on the edges. Her eye lashes slope down in the animation, not up. if you look up her image, you can see this immediately. It almost feels the artist did this by memory, or while watching the Muppet's show. A pass for me. It is incredible to think Ben has such bad looks down there. It looks worse than Gi-joes did back in the 80's. The only reason why the other ones look decent, is their crotches are covered. Breetai does look ok.

  5. Yeah, the chunky monkeys. Spceialy the rare ones Badass! I love to see groups of elements in relatively the same scale. A few years ago i got me a metal 1/48 F-14, to go with the 1/48 birds.
  6. Dollars. IIRC it was mind boggling expensive to get one in such good shape back then. There was no Yamato, or anything else. Maybe if i looked hard enough I would have been able to find better prices, but i recall the hobby being way too expensive for me, back then.
  7. I remember when they went for 1,200 bucks back in the year 2000. Before the Macross renaissance.
  8. Good stuff everyone! Enjoy! So cool they actually made the VT-1 and VE-1 back then.
  9. I think we need to censor this. Her cone is touching his leg. Her wings are wide open at the back, and there is clear gun contact.

    Ha, I knew I've seen that Breetai with the bent pipe somewhere. I would also like some HMR Angel birds and Fanliner [Hikkie's aerobatic plane], with a proper stand included [dreams, dreams] Or a HMR stealth livery... Or just give us HMR TV Max and Kakizake to finish the darn Vermilion. Have you all noticed they rarely give love to the vermilion squad! Please don't say some local Japanese stores release is a normal 1/48 Yammie release. It isn't, because then i would have them. Yes, I know bandai might go through with it with the DX Vermilion. [crosses fingers] [yes i do own the Yammie 1/60 vermilion, but it is still boxed] [yes, i am having a crisis]

    Bandai could have included all the Zentraedi faction within this scale. A Breetai [spelling?] with a bent pipe. Zentraedi soldiers, so you could army build. They do S.H.Figuarts, so you know they can make a badass figure. Meh, dreaming is free i guess. Yeah, i really want a Tomahawk. I have been trying to avoid the Spartan*, but i might cave one of these days.
  12. Yeah that's a good one! I need to find my Glaug and missile Regults. We just need pictures with Low angles , so we can math them to the backgrounds.
  13. I love my MP-10 and MPP-10! Congrats on your purchase! SWEEET! DUUUUDE! SWEEET! DUUUUDE! SWEEET! DUUUUDE! SWEEET! DUUUUDE! SWEEETAHH! DUUUUUUUUDE!
  14. Oh I made my mistakes at first. I ended using two types or dust proof material. Yes, it closes perfectly, and it seals, I'd say 99% of the gaps. I put my phone inside, while playing music, and it significantly reduces the sound. Also, I lit the area, to see if i could see any light shinning through, and it didn't. i used these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076F7T33Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NL4AATS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 There was enough material for two detolfs.
  15. Does the figure fit inside the Tumbler? Pardon me if i missed this. Hmmm, don't put ideas in my head SH9000. I truly enjoyed all the films. [quickie review:1>3>2] All of them are excellent, and well choreographed. If they keep this up, I'll watch as many as they dare make in this franchise. I heard the wachowski brothers [or sisters] are planning to make another Matrix film. We will see what happens in that world. BTW, I finally took some time to make my detolfs, dust proof. Not perfect, but for the most part i am very happy.

    Yeah, they are amazing little works of art. I am in the craze indeed @Slave IV

    @sh9000^ ^ ^ You know i will buy your Milia! ^^ ^ [and your VF-4!] i Do have a few black series myself, and i think they have improved their printing methods, face etc. @Slave IV yeah, the HMR are really cool. I was able to tuck in Max head in fighter mode you can tuck in the lens in the little gap, if the neck part is rotated properly. Like you said, that was a first time transformation. I am surprised how good these things feel with the fast packs on. It is a dense little thing. I missed all the cool 1S-1J-1A FP releases, but i think i have enough to represent the scales among the fighters. I see now why people are crazy about this awesome line.

    ^ ^ ^ absolutely! ^ ^ ^ I hoping to find a nice deal on Milia. When i get my VF-4 from @sh9000, i'll take more pictures! BTW, I noticed the 1J head is really exposed in your picture. Was that on purpose? @seti88 Thanks so much seti!

    not gonna lie... I got a thing for fighter mode... Nice trash compactor Luke BTW. That's very cool!

    Some say Misa is the right one! Bandai included the wrong stand adaptor for the VT-1 Fastpacks. I need to find my Hikaru HM and use that stand. I do like Minmei too, but she is only in my mind, when the fast packs are on...

    It arrived... Group shot! Macross Jam Thank you @kkx for a great transaction on Super Max. It is a thing of beauty. With the wrong colors, but yeah, a thing of beauty!
