Hikuro

I've talked to a few cast members about Episode 2...Cassa still has a few days of vacation left and since her and Cypher have recovered from their illnesses they're going to get cracking on the recording. Lionel is having personal issues which include him having a play and possibly having to move back home afterwards. He's still gungho on being Fokker (It's not an easy role to replace) so I'll continue to wait but it'll just make his work load even bigger. Episode 1 is missing Mao, Aries, Edgar, the ending lines for Sara which I havne't heard from Allison if she still has them or not. And then extras.....so it's still VERY far from finished. The hi-def footage, seriously, is just fantastic to look at, I'm shocked. Boinger treats my projects well, he's a great source for video assignment.

lol it's kind of an odd amount though, why not 12? or 12.50? Why 12.27? where'd that number come from? I've gotten a couple of emails from cast about 5 I think who are going to order their copies, that pretty much knocks me out on what I got left for materials. In the meantime, a surprising developement has occured in the last few days. I wasn't going to really start this project until next year YES next year not this year, but I'm well underway on the scripting of Macross Plus Movie Edition. Right now I have over 350 lines scripted, with 45 minutes worth of footage looked at. It's a pretty doable movie...though I've found 1 song on there that's not in the OST tracks which isn't bad, I can substitute it with the one closest which exists. Casting isn't set in stone, I'm probably gonna need more help on this one with a cast then I did with DYRL which I barely had enough to get done in my opinion. If I'm lucky...and I get a good cast.....it could be summer of 09, IF I'm lucky....meaning good cast, a good mix...it wont be 100% identical to the movie at all. It'll be kind of similar to what Volume 4 was like for Manga. But I'm still gathering up lots of SFX's from various shows that I know can be used, so no worries.

HAH! I couldn't even do that chibi VF-1S battroid.....it got all lop sided but I atleast had much of the upper body left...I can still build it just gonna be soooooo funky.

Well I didn't want it to expensive, I'm thinking 8 dollars..I've sent an email to cast members and I know of 2 who will buy one. I did want to put something in the box, but I don't really have any paper that works you can split in half or anything less it looks lopsided. Like some sort of Mikimoto waterpaint art work or something.

Yeah god, I got a VF-19 and looked at that going ".................................what?" So dashed lines you fold forward? You mean like how you normally fold a piece of paper or you fold it white side up? color side down? Don't really follow on t hat. But you serious? you cut the solid lines 0_o? This is pretty confusing to me. But tooth pick and elmers that I can cover.

The movie is being reuploaded. It's set up as an .ace file and it zipped just fine it's just a really long process of putting up when I've got other deals downloading too....House is my latest addiction with the lack of Battlestar Galatica. A physical DVD is completed. Here Hikaru and his VF-1S pose for the camera on their first american release! Took these shots with the DVD playing on my Blu-ray player. Course you'll have to set your TV accordingly if you play it on a seperate DVD player. But if your player is TV built in it wont be a problem to play properly. No price tag on this yet, I'm still jobless after sending in 12 applications this week so far, and cast members get first dibs.

After downloading a bunch of these paper models I just gotta know.....how the HELL do you do these? most of these don't even have instructions, and I don't know if you fold on the lines or on the flaps, or anything, it's just so confusing...I can like guess where these pieces go but I dunno if I'm right. I was working on a VF-11C with some instructions, but i couldn't figure it out, some of the folds are so complex. I had to give up when i was trying to attatch the shoulders onto the main body and then it started to really look like crap. I've got a 1/32 and a 1/48 VF-4 I wanna put together, but it's just........I dunno 0_o what do I do? someone hold my frakin hand XD

oh yeah lol that sent shivers at the end. Bobby is one freaky character, no if, and or but about it.

Maaaaan brings back memories of a website I'd go to where they had a counter for the Macross crashing on the island that was back in 1997 with a big ol counter with the year, month, day until it crashed I'm sure once the counter reached zero the site was gone. Now I shall count the days until our first interstellar war!

Oh god bobby made me wanna puke, never got sick listening to a song before XD WIN!

Hooooooo interesting, I don't get it, but interesting.

Gone, deleted the file from the server.

Like I said, back burner right now. I'll have something up later, just not right now.

Huh 0_o?! I only unlocked the VF-25S, dammit. I'm playing that level again!

VF-4 does indeed look cool, I just have an issue with how far the fuselage sticks out of the torso along with the nose bending so far out in angle. Look slike they still got it in stock, I'll plonder on it this weekend, if I end up getting the job I"m trying for then maybe tomorrow or monday I'll score.

God dunno why they would of done this, but I'll atleast watch it since I enjoy GiTS...still .....man......oh well.

Yeah those are the new 1/60 scale VF-1's. Cool job though, just missing the VF-1J to make it a true Vermillion Squad, since there was no more Vermillion unit once Hikaru became Skull Leader Still though good job overall, I don't have the balls to do that to 150 dollar toys, espically two of them.

So, are there any good cheap places in the US to get Ozma right now? orrrrr am I pretty much stuck with getting it from Image Anime for 80 bucks?

It does seem due to it's large size, it doesn't want to unzip...which is odd. Sadly right now, I'm not really up to reuploading/encoding/sizing it again cause it takes so damn long and it really just eats up my PC's memory cause it's a fairly old model now. Took almost 5 days to upload it, and I don't have the greatest speed right now, it was uploading around 28kb/s where as my downloading is almost 175kb/s....sucks. Don't really need any explinations as to why, not really interested in fixing something that I don't understand. Movies out in other forms for now so that'll just have to tied people over until I can address the problem later.

K yeah, if I get any of these, it'll be Alto's otherwise, I believe I'll pass on this line unless they make improvements. That's just so sad that Bandai went this direction with a really good Valkyrie. I'll stick to the model kits, I'm sure that's what Bandai really wants us to do.

Saw zero new universe toys for almost a month. HOWEVER I did see some of the new wave figures that include Skywarp, Shockwave, Sentinel Prime and Blurr....beucase I'm on such a tight budget, I got Blurr. His vehicle form is sleek and sexy, but his bot mode leaves a bit to be lacked but still decent in my opinion. Good design overall so i can't really complain. Just wish they'd hurry up with the other figures so I can finish collecting the TV characters.

Well, if I get this job I spotted before christmas, and my 401K check comes in, I'll get this along with some other stuff i wanted...but I can hold out on waiting.

Good, means I can save up, I think I found a job that'll help me out for the time being, just need the snow to freakin clear.

getting rather spotty already buddy?

Wow, personally I think 00 as a franchise and series is so much better than what SEED/DESTINY could do. They're just pissed cause of the lack of pretty boys.....they're there, they're just not emo enough for their taste.
