  1. I didn't follow Mikimoto's art all through the years (90's onwards). But can someone tell me in what year Mikimoto changed his style? I do have his Macross The First books and I can tell that's 2010's Mikimoto style already. Thanks.
  2. Well, so does Arad's Armored VF-31S. We'll just have to wait and see what other things they will change on this series retelling.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Was there any hint that the blue on the 31J Kai have a different tint compared to the original 31J?

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I like the extra panel detail added to the Fold Booster. Though I'm sure this one doesn't light up like Yamato's. And yes, this one still have the exposed wing tabs. Bummer.
  5. CAD looks nice.
  6. I'm not surprised if they will have lesser role. Besides, Macross Delta was all about Walküre... and the cool pilot-less Valkyries. She got injured before the series end.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    The display is probably just using the previous DX figure with UN Kites markings instead of SMS markings. And as most of the guys pointed out, there’s a probability that Bandai might not fix it (such as the split canopy, exposed wing tabs, etc.) maybe to save production cost. They’ll probably just replace the markings and call it a day. But atleast with this release, everything is included as a set. No worries. Most of the times, I’m having hard time composing what I really wanted to say. Esp the terms or descriptions that I’m using.
  8. Found a better pic. Hope someone who can read Nihonggo can translate it. I'm no good at kanjis.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I remember mentioning that a few posts ago.
  10. Up-close it's kinda have a 'blocky' look.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    You meant the red stripes behind the cockpit on to the head? The red stripes on the shoulders was there already on the regular 31J. The only thing that changes on the shoulder was the grey paint background behind the Δ05 which is now black in Kai. The C on 31J/C means 'Custom'. Custom/-ized (modified/altered/refitted/upgraded) is one of the english counterpart for the kanji 'Kai'.
  12. The tag says Kunio Okawara X Satoshi Shigeta. I don't remember seeing Okawara's name attached on the Metal Build's Strike Freedom and Freedom product description. Is this the reason why it looks differently from the other two? Is this going to be a problem for consistency? I know Kunio's the main designer of the SEED mechas but I have a feeling it's going to ruin the consistency of the overall look if ever someone has the first two Kira mechas. For me, it's ok since I don't have the first two. What do you guys think?
  13. From TagHobby: Metal Build INFINITY displayed from Tamashii Nations 2017.
  14. From TagHobby: I know it’s still early but it looks like the overall proportions are off.
  15. Yes. But it is what it is.

  17. Tamashii Nation 2017 video from Kaifuu.
  18. Don't panic. They're just one and the same. There's no different versions nor different releases. AmiAmi is just trying to move their in-store stock. That's why they're heavily discounted. It's why it's best to browse around first on different stores and sites rather to give in immediately. Besides, why panic when you're happy with what you're getting?
  19. What do I think?! I'm selling all my Yamato Vf-1J's now. If ever this will become a success, I don't want to restart my VF-1's in DX format. I'll probably just get Hikaru's VF-1J, VF-1A, and VF-1S. I just realized, that what I said to myself last 2012 when I started collecting Hikaru's Yamato Valkyries.

    Hi-Metal R

    For me, IMHO, the only advantage Evolution Toy version has over Hi-Metal R is just the scale. Well said, Mr. Cheng. Can't wait to see your VF-2SS detailed up version.

    Sad to learn you're missing one closed hatch for the SAP missiles. And about the head laser turrets, good thing they've included another pair. This is why I missed what Bandai were doing before on their releases. They install a PVC/rubber type material head laser turrets on the figure and have an extra pair in ABS material.
  22. I'm excited for this. An ultimate VF-1J figure. But if the said figure name plate says for 'Display Only', I'm not going to put my hopes up... just yet.
  23. Great purchases everyone! I found this 'upside-down' YouTube video where he flipped all the pages for MacrossWorld members.
