    I want one, but if I happen to completely miss out, I'm not going to worry about it. It's an Alto version, and one that I can easily skip over. I just want the damn CF versions.

    I'm just OK with the CG designs. In the case of Frontier, the CG was done very well, and the CG work looks fluid with the 2D stuff. Shadow Chronicles was jarring with their CG work, and it was very cut and paste. The ships, mecha, and all that, was like bricks in it.

    ... You're welcome. While it wasn't intended to be condescending, if it came off as that, oh well. I think what you're not figuring out, is that nobody said Kawamori was the be all, end all to mechanical design. That's your assumption, which now has made you the first syllables of that word. As for trying to make me feel "better about myself", again, another ass-umption that you've incorrectly made, but glad you could play along anyways. 1. I know that's my opinion. 2. If you read the first part of the quote above, those are your words. You brought up the argument, and when others started debating that claim, you posted again with your (paraphrasing) "Big whoop, Aramaki did ....., 3. I think you're getting mixed up with me correcting you, and you thinking that your opinion counts to me. Re-read. 4. That's fine if that is your opnion. I don't have a problem with your opinion, albeit quite misinformed. The facts are, while I like both, and have respect for both, Kawamori is the more successful of the designers, which many more times than not, translates to a better designer. You can still have your opinion, but usually the masses outweigh the one on this. 5. Again, you're very misinformed, it seems, about this topic. The armored core game franchis isn't some small walk in the park sketching he did. There are quite a few art books with all the Armored Core mecha, and the franchise has had quite a few releases. Not something people just throw together. You're trying to validate your argument by diluding the facts, and make his work not so important, so that's where you need to be corrected. 6. Sure....

    On top of what others have mentioned, Kawamori also worked on Eureka 7, Aquarion, Basquash, and was also asked to design a fighter for the new Ace Combat: Assault Horizon. You may want to check a few facts before rambling. I don't know what poor decision you went with to create a worthless argument, but your comment above makes me think you still play in a sandbox at school. To add to that, if you're going to use M.A.S.K. as one of your arguments, it's probably more of a detriment to your cause. I can't call it an argument, as you've managed to degrade it into a contest of how much you want your opinion to count to us.

    Yeah, you'll definitely have a lot of valks dancing with you in there.

    Hope you're not referring to short bus special. I doubt you are, but shoot me a pm.
  7. Jasonc
    They've had "special guests" drummers and players before, so they might be able to have one come up, that is, if they end up playing.

    Will these fit on the Thunder Focus kit? I'm also getting the VF-11 Nothung kit, too. So, if these go with that as well, I'll be getting two sets.
  9. Jasonc
    If you were to do that, that'd be great. Are you able to scale it down like that? I sent you a pm, but I think I wrote it not reading your post correctly. Anyways, I'll talk to you there. And for this teaser, it looks to be a very promising piece. Can't wait to see the outcome.

    Will there be a band playing??? I know a band that has a decent set of Macross songs in their catalogue (hint hint)

    Macross clothing

    Jasonc replied to sharky's topic in Collectors

    I so need that shirt.
  12. Jasonc
    Is anyone doing a 1/60 version? If not, I'm going to finish my 1/60 kit up. Love this design, and if I collected the 1/48s, I'd be all over this kit. Great stuff, Thor.

    As the saying goes, if "common sense" is so common, why is it so few have it? I have no problems for people asking for some links as referrence, or to simply give examples, but when people start with the "Back up your claim", or "Do you have hard data to back that up" type of sh!t, it usually goes with an idiotic sense of entitlement, like the burden of proof and the entire argument hangs on making them a believer. On separate occassions, I've run into this in some of the Robotech camp, and it comes down to this...it's not my responsibility to educate them, nor is it my "burden" of proof. If someone wants to be that diluded into thinking that I say things just for their belief, I simply laugh. The response usually is, "go do some research, and try to converse when you're not so much a dumb@ss."

    Didn't the guys who did Yamato's 17, design this one as well? From first impression, the knee joints look very much the same.
  15. Jasonc
    +1 While I like the designs, they are definitely drawn from the VF-1. You can especially see it in the hea design of the VF-2JA, and the 2SS. While Kawamori was not involved, they certainly wanted to give the impression that he was, maybe because he is that good.
  16. Jasonc
    Let me ask you a question...do you ever search anything on the internet, look at youtube, or do anything like that? Fans that want to incorporate anything Macross into Robotech are all around the net. I find it ironic that the people whom ask for "hard data" and facts, are either too ignorant, or too damn lazy to do their own searching. Do you even know what you mean by "hard data"? I don't think you do, or you would've just said "facts". I'm sure you can at least look that up in the meantime after reading this. Nothing personal, but I wish we had "Stupidest Comment" awards. You'd be a shoe-in about now.

    If you know that this is a Macross site, why would you put it up here, knowing that you'll stir the hornet's nest? I have friends that do fanfic writing, but they put their stuff up in the right places. Just sayin'.
  18. Jasonc
    I was waiting on this. Now that it's got a release date, more sack lunches to pay for it. If it's going to be upwards in cost, I hope they just include everything in the bundle. I'd rather pay more upfront, save the shipping, and get it all together, than just get the main fighter, then the pieces later. Bandai must not realize that it's a double punch for fans who order these online and have to pay for shipping on two items, instead of one.

    I usually order my parts in the WSF Polished, and it maybe a good option to have, or at least try. It's polished a bit, but still has a little grittiness to them. So, is anyone planning on dyeing their parts to color match?
  20. Jasonc
    Finished watching Birdy the Mighty: Decode, and I have to say, it was great. I hope there's more to watch. Started picking up Shuffle, a typical high school harem anime. Cute and all, not really my type, but it is fun.Next up with this one, Rosario+Vampire. Don't know how that one is, but I'll let you guys who haven't seen it, know how it is, afterward.
  21. Jasonc
    And Mikimoto now has his chance in Macross the First.
  22. Jasonc
    I'm definitely interested in getting those. With large files like that, it'd probably have to go up on bittorrent, but if you do that, please let us know. If I can get the files, I should have my BRD burner in about a month. BTW, thanks for the offer. I'm sure you'll make a lot of people happy here.
  23. Jasonc
    That looks amazing with those boosters and in that color scheme.
  24. Jasonc
    I have to agree, the armor parts look like an epic win on the fan's part, and for Bandai. I'll be happy when this comes in. It'll be my first armor set purchased. Never got the version 1 set. I hope there's news of the RVF, and Michael's version.
  25. Jasonc
    So, out of curiosity, has hlj put this up and it's already taken down, or have they not put anything up yet on the re-release?
