  1. In my toy collecting experience, you don't need to hate the toy just because the source is not good. Even if I didn't follow the overall Mazinger Z experience after the 70's, I still appreciate the modernized design of the Metal Build release. The only reason I didn't bought one is because, I'm trying to streamline my collection. If I have extra budget, I would love to get one and the Infinity if ever that one gets made. Why not, right? It looks cool. And just so you know, I didn't enjoy Macross Delta, but here I am buying DX Valkyries from that series. And still looking forward to what's going to get released from the compilation movie. Just my 2 cents on toy experience versus source experience.

    Hi-Metal R

    For you amptor, did it arrived at the same time? If not, how many days the interval from each other? And are they from the same store?
  3. By the way, is there anyone here has a Hasegawa VF-0S with Ghost kit? I was browsing some manuals online esp at HobbySearch. I couldn't tell if there's some additional markings on the Ghost such as NO STEP and WARNINGS besides the U.N.SPACY and the Kite logo. But I can't seem to make it if there is. Also, is there some extra markings too on the Leg Fast Packs besides the U.N.SPACY? Thanks in advance!

    Did you use EMS or SAL?
  5. ^ Cool! Let me know what you think of this F360. I also bought something from HobbyMission. Hope they deliver well.
  6. It's safe to assume that Macross Delta made money in Japan, correct? Why don't they just do a 'new' movie of the Delta instead of doing a compilation of the series with added small footages or changes? Just do like the DYRL. It's a retelling of the series with new anime footage. I know budget-wise it's easy to reuse old footages and all. But would it be best to treat fans to a whole new anime instead? I mean, they're still going to change stuff and story, right? Just treat it as a movie then.
  7. Rainbow tinted canopy? Bah! That's so early 2000's, man. It's already 2018. The blue tinted canopy in the Hi-Metal R line is the new rainbow tinted canopy. Let's see how it's going to look on a 1/60 scale. Kidding aside, thanks Lolicon.
  8. So. I thought I could apply the topcoat on Hikaru's VF-1S over this weekend but I ended up finishing applying decals on the Strike Parts instead. I just want to add that I used the Red Skull marking from the sticker sheet because the one that came with the waterslide decal is too 'orange'. The one from the sticker sheet is actually not matching the red paint in the Valkyrie. But it's more red than the one from the waterslide decal. Also, I know that I mentioned those white 'NO STLP' markings from the very beginning of this thread but I still ended up using it on the Packs just to move this project along. I also used the NP-BP-01, NP-FP-01, and NP-AR-01 from the sticker sheet too because the one from the waterslide are all NP-BP-01's. Anyways, let me know what you guys think. Maybe I went overboard and put too much decals. Hehehe!
  9. Thanks Recon! Yes, it is indeed very time consuming. But in the end it's a labor of love. IMHO, Arcadia's markings are just the basics. Even with the current sticker sheet that comes with the Valk, there's more left overs or unused. And I think the Hasegawa 1/72 scaled VF-1's have more markings than this. It would make more sense to pay their Premium Finish offering if it comes with a lot of markings.
  10. If it's still not paid, you can still cancel it in your account page. But if it's already paid and went to your Private Warehouse, assuming you did that, then you have 10 days to get a 100% refund. Beyond that it will deduct restocking fee and the rest will be store credit. Here's detail info from their Terms and Conditions page.
  11. Some Deformed Votoms figures displayed at C3AFA HK2018 over at B2Five's Booth. Looks like the toys are doing some kind of cross-over with their Acid Rain line. Photos from TagHobby.
  12. No. If there was, it will definitely be announced in the Macross Delta Movie thread.
  13. At WonderFest? Let's hope there is. But I'm not going to put my hopes up for those two (Fuke and Yellow). What I think is that they will have their first painted or finished product of Stick's and Ley's displayed at the fest, assuming that they will attend the said event.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    In my cabinet for sure.
  15. Some footage from the event. Starts at 1:25.

    Also, make sure to check Tamashii site from time to time with their Macross Hi-Metal R section so you can budget everything ahead of time. Enjoy collecting!
  17. Hey Bandai! I'm still waiting for Roid's DX Elvis Draken. Make sure to make that white one first before investing on a purple Ba's Draken instead of greens.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Hubba Hubba! Where this from? I want a poster of this one now! Where can I get one?
  19. Thanks sumyumgoy! I'm planning on using Flory's too for easy application and correction if ever I messed up. Yes sir! That's what I'm planning on doing this weekend if time permits. I will topcoat the whole thing so that by next week I can start applying panel wash. But since you guys said it's hard to do panel wash, now I'm considering mechanical pencil. That way, it has the light 'dirty weathered' look from the lead and smudges. Anyways, we'll see what's the best way.

    Macross figures

    Opportunist, maybe?
  21. Rule of thumb. It's always been a commercial for toys and merchandise whether the story is good or bad.
  22. Thanks for your input, JIS. Does that mean Reina had a boob job as well? Wow. She's not petite anymore.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Bandai doesn't have the habit on selling their Valks in bundle. The only one I think was Isamu's VF-19/Adv. So expect that the Armored Pack will be exclusive. Which in turn, can make everyone customized their own Armored Pack, whereas Isamu's can't because the boosters used on him even though it's the same as the VF-25's, the slots are not the same so it makes more sense to bundle it with the VF-19. Nope. That's still the same 31J he has. Check the wing folded in Battroid mode.
