They do some great work. That's cool that they have the difference in the design for both models. That actually helps. Haven't had any updates as I was in the hospital for awhile with major surgery, and the recovery process has taken awhile. I'm up and about now after a couple months, and should get back into it shortly.

For your poll, I would definitely go for the blue/grey launch arm color that was on the Yamato release, and black. Also, for the stand you posted on the poll, is that the base it'd come with, or would it be the UN Spacy and SMS base?
-
I haven't looked through the entire board here, but is there an estimated release date for this?
-
In just about every collection, all that always sticks out for me is the VF-4. Still my favorite release of them all.
-
Hell, if anything, this will be a time for my wallet to take a breather while it recoups from the Chronos, and the Prophecy, as well as the Tornado parts, and the Isamu YF-29 armor parts.
-
I love the design, and will order one, but that's the biggest flaw, complaint I have with this design. The tail fins just bother me to no end. The pilot would need to worry about any gritty fighting, cause if he fell on his back, he's not transforming afterwards and flying out of the combat.
-
I don't think this is going to be a large release to begin with, so any sales numbers outside Japan would be significant.

I feel like playing a horn to make it dance out of a basket, as I put it in a trance.
-
Nice collection there. Makes me miss my old setup from back in 07, before all the super pretty stuff.
-
You know what will be really funny? To find out just how far off base we all are in our expectations (more or less). I have things I'd like to see in this, but what I really want more than anything, is simply quality. They put great characters into a great story and have bonuses of mecha action in it, I'm good as fresh gravy.
-
I really want to get this, but as I'm saving up for a possible trip to Japan this year, I'm not sure if I am going to get it. I'd be sold for certain, if it had dub or even the US Renditions dub attached to it, like Plus did with their BD. That said, as I doubt that will happen, I'll probably stick to my US Manga release and wait and see if this release gets any less as time goes.
-
It's limited in each individual post. You can probably post them as you go, and have no issues.

The mounting parts are slightly different, enough to where if you want the original to work, you would need to do some work on remaking the connectors. The overall size of the first Yang is significantly larger than the new one. I think putting the old head on the new one would make him look like an olive on a toothpick. I'm just gonna work with the back side of the old Yang. See what I can do with that.
-
All I'm gonna say is, WOW!!!
-
Definitely not made for someone like me.... a male.
-
Yep, just got mine in as well, and I must say, it's a beauty. To address a couple of the people who hit the panic button when a piece of lint flies past their face, it's a solid toy. I've inspected mine, and there seems to be no issues with mine. The feet shouldn't be a problem unless you absolutely have to extend, and keep the feet extended, and the color of the diecast parts and plastic is uniform throughout. I did try the fold booster Yang, and alas, he's quite larger than the new version, and barely fits in the rear seat. The rear canopy doesn't close all the way with him in the back seat, so, unless you trim the part where he sits, he won't fit back there. I may end up doing that, as I like that version much better.
-
I'm not one to make suggestions, especially on someone's project, and you probably know better, but have you tried maybe recessing the part where the arm connects with the base, to integrate the into a more distinct kite symbol?
-
I have my old Yang and the fold booster set ready to test when I get mine in today. It's on the way. Any transforming vids up yet?
-
If these end up working well enough, I will get a few as well. BTW, that material are they printed in?

Macross World Podcast - feedback & comments
Jasonc replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
I like the podcasts so far. Not really any suggestions at this point, as I haven't thought of it, really. I do like the little sound bytes in between. You guys should put more of those in. -
MacrossWorld Convention 2014 Information Thread
Jasonc replied to KiriK's topic in Conventions and Local Gatherings
We're working on that. -
OK, it looks like these figures may have a bit of movement in them, and their legs don't look like they were cut off at the ankles. I consider that a definite bonus as well.
-
I know that rubber seal of the 0s that were on seemed to corrode on its own as well, which is what I think they were referring to. For some reason, my 0s never had the arm breakage. Even when I sold them, they were pretty solid. Still, after sometime, it freaked me out to transform them, so I sold them all.
-
I like it. I hope they have plugs for the screws and the holes, and I'd like to see the visor rounded like the Yamato helmet, but aside from those tidbits, it's looking great.
-
I'm pretty sure that's where I sent mine to.
