hot damn!!! That is the absolute hottest of the Sharon Apples I've yet to see

We need a Frakkin group buy! When this comes out. I didn't bite on the 1/48 AB, but always wanted one. The fact that it comes with a fan racer (altohough, not painted again) is kinda cool. FTR, a group buy is in need it seems.

Ahhh, still need to get those Bunny and white costume Sheryls, just don't have the money at this point. also, the prices are a bit too high at this point. If anyone knows where to get them at a decent price, or if anyone has extras, let me know.

I'll be going for sure, not sure if one or more days though.

You know, for the most part, you are correct. But I wouldn't say all Robotech fans are pathetic. Actually, most I know are good, decent guys, that don't isolate other fans because they have different opinions. We talk about a few fanatical crazy RT fans, and they think we are trying to trash talk all of them. Not true. What they need to realize is that it's just a couple of them, the more vocal ones that think they know what they're talking about, that we talk about. I'm sure, HP, that you've heard that they think you're not a fan of Robotech as well, otherwise, you wouldn't be doing the trash talking. That's what a couple think of me, but really, they'll say that in defense of the truths that are told here. To some, the "you're just saying that cause you wanna kill Robotech" defense helps them to invalidate whatever is said, and write off everything here. It's why I don't delve too deeply in the politics as heavily. What good is trying to convince crazy fanboys locked in their mom's basement of what is real? To be honest, those guys are the best comedy, as most of what they say is so far out there, you'd think they were trying to create a new soap opera. But yeah, HP, you are the devil in carnate, and you're not a real fan of Robotech, cause you want to kill it. The insanity!!!

Hahaha, I heard that!!! My old Sentinels comics are worth more than those, although, the very first comic that came out I have signed by Tony Oliver, Dan Warren. It's the only one of all those comics I really kept and appreciate. Speaking of comics, I have an issue of the promo comic that was the prelude to the Nintendo game that never made it, Crystal Dreams I think it is. Is that worth anything? I know it's rare, just have no clue about the worth of it. I also have the very first issue of Protoculture Addicts, which is all black and white. Is that worth anything? I need to make more space, so I maybe looking to part with this stuff very soon.

I thought the film was quite clean and edited well. It had more of an emotional feel than most fans would expect, but I think that aspect of it is interesting, and people who are into short films will appreciate the effort and work involved in this production. Congrats on a job well done and I hope you guys do more in the future. Even if it's not Robotech, the style of the cinematography is cool.

Yeah, I'm kinda curious, too. The old comics of the 90s were decent to all the way craptastic. Some were so abstract that they were an abstract adaptation of an abstract storyline. But, in all fairness, at least they were more independent and kept the franchise on life support during the time. What's strange is that even with all the hype that has come and gone in 5 years, it's still in that same position as back then. Go figure.

Why am I starting to have second thoughts on this happening this year?

There was always this strife that was noticed when Carl left the first time. In past interviews and comments, it always seemed that he wanted to get back into HG, and back onto Robotech. Being that he's back in HG to one extent or another, perhaps he's saying that simply due to the fact that he'd rather be a part of that, then a part of nothing. It's just an opinion, but I don't think he'd be around if he was going to criticize the direction they're taking Robotech in.

Anybody wanna buy my PTTSC comics, with first issue signed by Tommy Yune? $300 OBO

Jerks, pedophiles, Robotech killers, and haters. That's why I hate you all. I drink my daily Hater-aide, Hahaha (j/k for those that have no sense of humor)

Thanks for the compliments. The SDF-1 is just there, no work will be put into that. There are too many broken pieces, and it's just a floppy mess. I've been fixing the minor missing decals, and all that, so still working on the Sheryl Guard. I'm glad it does transform without any hitches. I will be putting up pics of the decals here when I'm done. So anyone who wants to use them can. As for the MacF specific decals, you'll have to get those from the decal sets that are out there. I will be doing a Minmay Guard probably next, as well as working out the possibility of the Platypus (which will be done from the unassembled version.)

Here's the still unfinished pics of it in Battroid.

For the MW con 10, we should figure out who is in, who is out, and whatnot. Bee, are you completely out? Once we get a loc, I think everything starts moving in a natural process. I'd like to help, and can do so to some extent, but I think instead of having one person do it, it should be a team. I'll commit myself to getting this done, but there needs to be others that commit, then get things going. I'm not the one for a loc, since I don't have those types of contacts, but I can help with contacting the vendors/sponsors, getting the flyer together, and if anyone is planning on shipping stuff, I can keep the stuff here. That's what I can contribute.

Awesome!!! i got the DVDs, but didn't get the booklet. I think that's the only thing I didn't get. Looks cool.

Thanks, this is the first "custom job" I've done since leaving the old Chunkey Monkey behind. Once the decals dry for the shoulder tops, I'll have pics of it up in Battroid mode.

Still need some touch up work, but here it is assembled in Fighter mode. I'm quite happy with the turnout. Still need to do the shoulders, and coat the head, as well as fix some decals that are being troublesome. Alas, here it is.

I really don't care who directs the movie. If they get this Sylvain guy, maybe there will be some scary killer in it, a few dance battles, and the sort. Hell, maybe it'll even have Mtv get involved and it'll have Tila Tequila play Hooker Minmay.

I got quite a few plans with these...1 will be a Minmay Guard, the other may be a very ambitious project, the "Platypus"

While there are some really (trying to find a less abrasive word) "poor" choice desisions and statements people in the RT fandom have made, I have to agree on the question of why take them so seriously. Hell, I may have my dislikes, but I'm not taking them seriously, even though they are. What is Maverick's piss poor analysis going to change? What is Memo's lack, and downright twisting of info going to effect? What is dougbendo's eneducated rationale going to infiltrate? NOTHING. You're talking about these people as if they run the show, and they're nothing but side commentators for a few people to listen to. Now, aside from pointing out the obvious stupidity that seems to come up almost daily that we all point out, why let them affect you to the point of spending your life hating someone? I'd rather just not give a rat's @ss about them. Seto, in your case, I can see why and how it could urk you that much, but you having that much of a problem with someone doesn't mean that we all have to take the same train. This isn't making excuses for their idiotic posts, comments, and actions, nor is it a reprieve for them either. But calling Gubaba a hypocrite for being able to converse with someone you can't stand is a little overboard.

These just came in the mail today. Love the packaging and will open one up later today. Will have pics up tonight of it, but for now...

Now, that would take the fun out of it, wouldn't it? Part of why translated versions of Macross the First haven't been floating around here, too. No one would buy these if all the new stuff was just scanned and posted on here.

Well, that kinda coincides with what I said. Either way they wanna play it, they're using it as a card, and they're gonna play that card to benefit them. The whole incident is quite childish, and you'd think it would've been shrugged off long ago. whether it's getting offended, or wanting to bask is a little admiration out of persecution, it's all pretty feable for weak minded people. Again, my opinion on this even only. In other semi related news, I did hear the rtfan podcast's most recent droppings in the RT toilet, and it talks about the UEG issue. Guess who were the first voices to chime in? Juanrt and Memo. It sounded like greedy rt fans just wanting something, by the bitching of UEG not putting Genesis on rt.com. Memo's name on the podcast is S-California, and Maverick was on there as well. They still form a false opinion that UEG was trying to make their Genesis show as a business dea and make money off it, as if it is gospell. Maverick was on there, pretending like he knew exactly what transpired. Do these guys even listen at all, or read? Same ol' song and dance, I guess. In anycase, the only people who could shed light on what happened, was HG, and the guys at UEG, and UEG did. The rest of the show is all assinine assumption from the other guys on the show. I'd give you guys the link to listen, but it was a lot of wasted time, and it just goes back to the same ol rt fans role playing like they are "professionals" in the industry, and pretending like they all know exactly what happened and knew all the intentions of both sides. SAVE YOURSELF SOME TIME AND DON'T BOTHER. I JUST SUMMED IT ALL UP FOR YOU.

There you go, let's make a board game. Macrossonopoly. In anycase, Exo, I can wait for mine next time I see you. I'll also be sending you payment for the remaining set(s)
