Anubis

Those blessed things can take a beating, I haven't heard any horror stories about them at all. It's something you can happily give to your kids and not worry. Maybe hurt their fingers on the landing gear, but you can alays take the spring out there. I would imagine if you are rough with it, throw it across the room, play catch with it in the driveway, or shoot it, it could likely break or suffer cosmatic damage at least.

Post what happened in the "What's wrong with my Yamato" pinned thread and maybe someone can give you some tips on how to fix it.

The deal continues to sweeten.

You wouldn't have a copy of the full pic that avatar is from would you?

There was extra footage added to the episodes for the director's cut. It's not from EoE, though a few pieces pieces of the new footage were in Death and Rebirth during the recap portion. Scenes include Kaoru talking to Seele, expanded 16th angel battle, more talk time between some characters and Kaji, and some more stuff. I'm eager to see all that's in there. Mine should be shipping from Right Stuf by tomorrow. Note: this one is of Episodes 21-23. The next vol. with 24-26 will be out on 3/9. Now if we could just get the enhanced revival box out here that saw it's R2 release already, I'd be ecstatic. 5.1 audio, touched up backgrounds, removal of screen jitter supposedly, the works.

Unfortunately, the kit was designed so you could build EITHER of the two versions. It probably wasn't really intended for parts swapping. If you want to build both you may end up having to buy a new kit altogether. It may end up cheaper and easier than pleading for the parts you need, which tend to be very expensive buying them like you're thinking of doing.

I don't know how reliable that one is. I'll wait for the full press release from Bandai. All signs were pointing to Zeta coming first, which was already overdue anyway. Then F91, then Seed. The Zeta box set will definately be released first, which in normal fashion would mean it would air first. That, and it would have been on Anime News Network already, not a toy site. The toy sites have misquoted and such before. With word that the toys are at least coming, we can expect an actual press release about Zeta and Seed's broadcasts and DVD's within a couple of months. They just announced the English cast for Seed anyway, so it wouldn't be ready yet. Zeta is supposedly ready to go out the door already as soon as they decide it's time.

I said that on the first page of this new thread.

Where'd he go? It's too bad everyone couldn't keep from ruining that stuff... It was pretty funny and cool Vostok 7 YES, the little valk Roy 1S! There we go.

Apparently you've never heard of the "Buddy Jesus?" I think you're onto something. Maybe we could commission one of our talented fan-artists to make a superdeformed VF in this pose. I have to second that one. Agent One's right though, you cant make the creator the mascot, it just doesn't fit. The froating head is best suited for forum post appearances with creative quotes attached to his picture. "Die HG Scum!", and etc. The buddy valk though would be cool. Or the buddy Britai/Exedol.

Sorry, but we just did this one not too long ago. Remembering Your First Valk My yamato 1/60 VF-1S Roy was my first Macross toy.

oops, put only instead of not. Hasbro's going for 70 somthing. I paid 97 for my Takara too. I don't want a battle damaged prime.

That's good, But per amazon.com it would be a $20.00 bill not a pile. By not buying the hasbro you would save four $20 bills, or 80 ones, or 16 fives, to make the actual stack of cash. I only bought the Takara. I don't really want the Hasbro too. He is in static robot mode.

Any transformation from an A-10 would look pretty crappy for an alternator. The fuselage is too thin for it. I'm in the camp of a Mig or F-22 would work better for Starscream. The VF-14 is much closer to the SR-71 Blackbird than the VF-4.

The VF-14 is much closer to the SR-71. Especially in black like they showed in the M7+ Short. Great job on the Yukikaze Super Sylph, btw.

HG sucks. Damn she ugly. If he's forced to again, Montarvillois could use her for his new Valkaeda avatar.

This kind of topic can be highly dangerous. Wars have been fought on this topic. See the Macross 7 debate thread for where this one can go very easily. That, and RT doesn't sit too keenly here. I saw some RT when I was younger, only from the Macross saga, like many of us US folk but only got into Macross really after seeing DYRL and M+. Needless to say, I prefer actual Macross.

yes. evidence - ranma movies Do you konw when? I would guess Movie one to be announced this year maybe. They may need to wait a while for Movie 2 until they catch up to where they need to be in the show, given it's Naraku content. Their coming to R1 is a given, it's just a matter of when.

I wonder if Caterpillar would liscense some stuff so we could have Constucticons. Hell, I could deal with Samsung construction stuff if need be.

OMG, I had him. Chalk another MIA transformer to my list..

I had hoped Myung would be the fifth figure in this one instead of the other Minmei. Hopefully for Series 3. Any one have any guesses as to the chase figure? I'm thinking Guvava maybe.

No, remember, Max and co. wanted us to limit the actual bit-torrent links to Macross related stuff, per Shawn. Other than that, may want to PM the links.

Exactly, a lot of them had similar transformations, and it would make sense that some of the alternators would ave transformation similarities, especially for the detail they wat to put in both the car and robot modes. The Rx-8 one looks to have a couple of differences looking at the design and transformation they showed. Either way, it looks positively bad ass. I want one. Now for the Impala or Crown Vic Prowl.

If it was really that, he'd have a hole in his gut. The burn marks seem to correspond to where Megatron shot him him repeatedly, minus the one up by his head. These could just be random burn/smoke/dirt marks, more like weathering, or after a long day of kicking someone's ass. I still like my pristine Takara version. Still don't know why they would bother chopping the smokestacks. The things are even spring loaded to prevent breakage. But if it can be found for in the in the $70's, and avoid shipping, I can see how some might migrate to that one instead, though the Takara is clearly the superior version.

Looks pretty good. May have to order another box this time too. If anything for Misa and Roy. The Sara looks nice too. Still don't agree with another Minmei, but at least they made a good TV version.
