Based on the anime screenshots, the ∆05 markings placements on the Bandai Super Parts are correct. Here's some screenshots samples from Chuck's ∆03 and Arad's ∆01.

Think I got the last one. That Store Credit will cover my shipping or less coming July along with the MB 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G.

Actually, I was thinking the same on the Orguss II CF figure when I purchased the 2nd Kei's Orguss. I need to save more. Hehehe. That's why I was hoping they would release the brownie one next year like Kei's. But it makes me excited since it was shown that the release date is September. So we have to save a lot now. -
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

^ Not so Macross-centric, right? Great purchases, everyone! -
Yes it is, sir. Yes it is. If Japanese have their Nissin Cup Noodles, we have Costco Hotdogs.
-
Wait. How about my wallet strategy suggestion? No Costco Hotdog for you then? By the way, did you purchase a second Orguss this HLJ Sale?
-
Granted that you paid more for that Olson's Orguss. With new engineering and mold, it sure worth it, right? Not some 10 year old mold. As for a new strategy, try Costco Hotdog for lunch everyday.

Ok. Time for me to stay away officially from this thread. See you guys on Saturday evening. -

+1 Ditto! -
Well, atleast Bandai really knows how to pay homage.
-
Ha! I didn't see this one. After you're done removing the tissue paper, wrap it in acyrlic sleeves. Instant Premium for you, sir.
-
Pull the trigger sir. Premium or not, you won't get disappointed owning one. Because, like I said earlier: Agree? No one will pay? Are you sure? Remember there's still someone out there whose willing to pay $750 to get a decent and new never-been-out-from-the-box Valkyrie. And that's a fact. Hey David! This release will get the exclusive treatment in your hand once you wrapped it in in your acrylic plastics. Because probably blank ink is much more expensive than colored inks. Hence, the Premium Finish. Who doesn't love Tommy Yune's artwork in those Premium packages?

Macross Cosplay by Super Dimension Foto Patreon (New Set Sept 2019)
no3Ljm replied to Roy Focker's topic in Fan Works
I wonder though. Since you're using female for Hikaru. Why not, use a wig for the Hikaru character? I mean, I've seen girls do male characters in some conventions and they do use the specific character hairstyle as part of their overall look. And if it's not blackish blue hair, photoshop it in post-prod. I appreciate the effort for doing this but inquiring minds want to know. Is this more like just relying on the costume and not the overall look? I know your Mirage have the 'elven' ear going on but how about the other characters with their signature look? -
Click to jump.

As for the purple hued Tomahawk, are Bandai basing it on the old Conversion Kit box artwork?
-
I see. Thought it was someone new who does HMR review. Based on Macross Mecha Manual site, the blue type Spartan was seen on Episode 15 of SDFM. Agreed!

TBH, I don't understand it 100%. But those sweet images are good enough for me to get one. Go and buy one and tell me afterwards if I'm correct. And this is why we need that Macross Coffee Book from Saburo. No Japanese texts needed. -

Got this Model Graphix Macross Archives book at work this morning. Thanks @jvmacross for the heads up on this one. Even if it's 'used', the book looks pristine. -
I never get tired of looking at this incarnation of VF-1's. People always says it's a 10 year old mold toy. But everytime there's new releases even if it's just the same old Roy or Hikaru scheme. Premium or not, they're still gorgeous to look at.
-
Who's Pinot? This is the first time I heard of him. Care to share some link please. Thanks!

Ok. Understood. So, how will you apply this satisfaction, appreciation, etc if your the head honcho of Arcadia? Would you still keep on doing it knowing that some companies out there are just going to copy what you've been building? For sure, Arcadia will be forced to lower their price to battle this KO goods. But how can you pay your own people now to innovate more? How can Arcadia or any company for that matter survive to pay the rights, materials, labors, marketing, costs, etc. knowing that other companies are just going to come in, reverse engineer your stuff and sell it cheap? Like what you said, it all comes down to money. How one business can survive if they're not going to be paid right? And for sure, companies like this were also built with passion. Passion for making toys and make everyone happy especially us -- Macross Lovers.
-
See. It's a never-ending cycle. You innovate. Someone will copy. You advance more. Then for sure someone else is going to copy that advancement. It's not going to end. That's why I ask to what extent because people will copy people. In the end, why innovate? Why do advancement? When someone can just steal easily your advancement.
-
Hey B! Wait. Why am I saying Hey to someone who devolving this thread? Just kidding B! Hahaha! Those were good posts, JVM and Chronocidal.

I've read your post before and I understand what you're saying. But to what extent are you going to stay good enough in order for the "I'm-not-going-to-think-of-something-new-because-there-will-always-be-something-to-copy" copycats to stop copying just for you not to always think that imitation is the highest form of flattery, etc, etc? Would it need to stop if money is already involved since you have to pay lots of money for copyrights and all? That's what I'm trying to say when I said about I want to hear what those inventors and alike starts to say something about this matter. Even if it's a form of flattery and all, copying one's idea is already stealing. I'm not against to what you've said. But with what's going on around the world lately when it comes about this matter. Imitation is the highest form of flattery is just an excuse for being sourgraping. Esp when that copycat makes a better version of what you did. So, from there, it's just a big cycle. Now you have to make a better one. But like I asked in the beginning, to what extent you're going to stay good enough? +1 In the end, for me as a consumer, when I run out of option then that's the only time I buy KO goods. For example, I bought a Metal Saga 00 Gundam Seven Sword it simply because the original release is so expensive nowadays. But that doesn't stop me for preordering Bandai's reissue Metal Build 00 Gundam Seven Sword/G. I know it's much expensive than the KO one. But who wants a Gundam display stand that says Metal Saga or Mecha Worrior in their collection, right? Who wants a KO display stand that has a different color compared to the others, right? Just my 2 centavos.
