Could be seeing how i think i twas a year ago when they that Macross idol contest I think in Japan am I correct? Animation be it hand drawn/flash/CGI does take time. Espically CGI. I've actually got a new found respect for these animators after trying to do it myself and seeing just how freakin difficult it is to make a drawn figure move a frame at a time.

YAY! Garland shipped today! which is what I'd figured it'd ship when. So I probably won't see it until friday. My biggest concern truely is quality after all, I've gone thru a garland and now a VF-0 that are all or were busted up and I barely touched them. So I guess when I get the figure I'll have to examine very closely on fragile parts.

Well!...............crap....now my Vf-0A needs a new head .........don't ask. I'm REALLY close to selling it for spare parts....I really am.

Wow very cool! I'm gonna have to find a way to get back into this game, it's been forever.

I just purchased a Protogarland a weekago......saaaaadddddly TMP has yet to ship it : / but atleast it was cheaper then everywhere else so i'll be patient. Hope to god the Quality is good on this....my Garland didn't last 20 minutes before the shoulders snapped and an arm broke off.

Wow BIG update XD my Roy Fokker VA turned in a majority of the first half of his lines....he's got a few missing here and there but it isn't too bad!

I am fangasming. I never owned ironhie cept movie release and hated the toy. But with the classics line, i will diffenetly be a happy boy.

Just another one this time from Episode 1 not a bad mix either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiOgWNxGMgk

Fine, somethings are alot easier to pick out and understand. You also see hints that there could be a sequel since there's another guy who Hud comes into contact with who's also holding a video camera. Sound quality wise, damn it'd be nice if I could play it on my surround sound without waking people up.

I was fooling around with the Triangular single tonight trying to create a TV size edit of the Kareoke mix and it's timed differently then the actual TV version. I'm not 100% sure but I think the TV version or the actual release is slowed down by a beat or two.

Thanks, youve always been a good supporter of our stuff and we appreciate it. Maria and I have been fooling around with the idea of doing more clips or nailing the series. I'm trying to find a none mp4/mkv version of episode one but have gone ahead and started working on episode two scripting. Im also tooling with the idea of merging certain scenes in both ep1 releases to make a longer cut...probably what that 37 minute ultimate cut is thatll come in july. Ill handle the sfx mixing thatl be easy, however with no music out until .....june? I dont suspect an episode of it dubbed will be out until mid July. Im even tooling the idea of doing english versions of he songs featured....MAYBE. either case, I still got DYRL and Macross Zero to finish...so Ill just toy with this idea when Im taking breaks.

It was all stuff to completely throw off internet researches. The staff mentions many times that no one is allowed too tell anyone what they were filming and they didn't give much information to cast members either. For instance one of the staff members tells the extras for the liberty head scene just before it falls that they hear a loud "SKRAW!" and when they hear her shout "SKRAW!" they are to freak out and scatter cause something will be falling close to them. Or the code names such as "1.18.08" "Cloverfield", "Cheese" stupid stuff like that. But soon enough someone out watching would leak, see it's JJ out there filming and put 2 and 2 together and go "OH! It's that movie!". I think I got a better understanding about the movie now then what i did when I saw it. But still, you gotta have the right ambience to play this movie and really get into it.

Right, but I don't think the people of Mayan are french. If they were, that honestly would be messed up. Another speculation is that could be just a song Sara enjoys that calms her down or something, I don't know. I say, Liner notes.....when those come out, maybe we'll know.

So the DVD is out today, I picked it up, great features in my opinion. Commentary from the director, 3 alternate endings of course, the ending they went with gave some closure. Also a brief sum up of how and why they gave birth to the Cloverfield monster. Not a bad DVD. It'd be a better viewing for me if I could of had my surround up watching it with some friends. I may bring it with me to cali when I see my friend, she LOVES monster movies and is a big gojira fan...I told her it's a mix of Blairwitch and Gojira and she flipped thinking it sounded cool....ya sheltered life. By the way, I DID see that segment at the end of something crashing into the water. Now that I could actually stop and look around in the end...that was interesting I wonder why no one else picked up on that, espically the cruise ship that was close to that area.

Yeah to help provide her as some sort of high tech super advanced cyborg, she'll walk out of this unscaved going "We need a new vehicle."

That's the Impulse from Gundam Seed Destiny, the weakest link of the Seed franchise. Seriously though, how many freaking versions of the RX-78-2 do we need? I think we're up to 4, Original, 1.5, Kai, and OYW verison...now this 2.0...really what needs improvement once the OYW version came out? I though that kit was amazing.

That's not completely true. For instance, we have a Roy Fokker and we have an Aegis Fokker, and I believe it was shown that based on the time span those two were nothing in common but last name. It's like running into a Mike Smith and a Bill Smith...same last name but nothing else similar. Like there are others in the US that share the same last name as myself (which is kind of a surprise) and I have no relation to them what so ever. Not too mention if Sheryl had any relation to Mao or Sara, that would make her like a grandchild of either or...and seeing how it was more then likely that Mao was killed when the Zentradie attacked, I'd say, just common name. Hell for all we know, Sheryl Nome might not be her real name. Also, based on what she wrote on her hotel mirror, I doubt she would be of Mayan Linage...I couldn't make it all out, but it almost seemed french or something.

XD yay! I got the router working again...and I'm really using the crap out of the Xboxlive stuff now. I downloaded a demo of Ironman and I gotta say, while the graphics are very cool looking, the controls are poo to me.

So let me get this straight, if we have a TV show with a franchise tag to it and we get, let's say, a Lopez as a last name in the first one, and then suddenly a few shows later, we get another Lopez, do we start saying "OMIGOD! RELATION!" right away without any proof outside of last name spelling? Until I see hard proof, Sheryl Nome, and any Mao or Sara Nome of Macross Zero are totally unrelated to eachother....you can have a million lopez, but that doesn't mean they're related.

Since the series induction 3 weeks ago, I"ve been wanting to tool with a English Dub of the show, DON'T CRINGE! Geeezeeee. Anyways, my good friend MariaVu has become hooked on the show, she's a long time fan of Macross and is also Lynn Minmay and Aries Turner for DYRL and Macross Zero. So when i got home from work lastnight she sent me a script and video file of Episode 3 where Ranka and Alto are sitting on the roof top of a building and talking about their dreams of being a singer and pilot. The dialouge was slightly altered to fit the scene and the song Ranka sings in the Japanese rendition was not used in this English verison because we couldn't translate it fast enough to do an English rendition. So instead Maria used a song she did for Arjuna which fit rather well. Also same issue with Background music. So here you people go, a near 3 minute clip with Ranka and Alto.

Meaning that the series will be released in the US. Gundam merchandise is a flop in the states. The only reliable place to get merchandise like model kits is at a hobby shop...not like ToysRUs or Kaybee's like when Wing made waves on CN almost 8 years ago.

Sadly to pay bills all I got left for the 360 game wise is Acecombat.....I've sold off every game or accessory I've owned in the last 4 months. I can't even get my wi/fi back up....limited traffic or something so whenever I get a chance I'll have too reset it and try to reupload the whole thing over....this sucks. My netgear wi/fi was doing soooooooooooo well.

Can't wait to start watching Season 4, I'm only 4 episodes away from finishing Season 3.....massive sit down for the last 3 weeks on BSG from Series Mini to now.......gaaarrrrr I can't wait for the end!

Thanks, that worked REALLY well....now I'm actually enjoying the game lol.

Which ppl need to pay close attention, this is only in Canada where in some stores the figures are already out. US release is still June. Yep, got it for a buck on ebay. But this helped me decide if I wanted the toys or not. I got to say, these are gonna be pretty good.
