Major Focker

anyone know if the VF-1A (or the Tomahawk) has been released yet? most sites say August release, and we're very close to September now. passing through HK this saturday and hoping to pick one up.

don't know how accurate it is, but i liked how gg captured michel's statement to alto: "in your case, being dense is criminal" or something along that line...

indeed. bravo!

ha! good one! er, but wait... in DYRL hikaru went looking for misa, then went looking for minmei. so which one were you referring to? depending on your answer, you might be staring down a sniper rifle barrel... kidding i know it's pointless to put logic in these speculations, but it's just fun. besides it passes the time while waiting for the boarding call.

sorry, can't explain it really specially not before the subs come out (my japanese vocabulary is limited to those words found in menus) i just got this vibe that michel is finally coming to terms with his past (sister), klan, and himself. if he survives to enjoy it, well and good. if not, it's tragic. and macross always has its fair share of tragedies. but, like i said, i can't explain it. just a feeling. so pay no mind to my rambling musings

nope, you are not alone.

wow, no mechaporn at all, yet strangely satisfying. perhaps even one of the best. - deathflags seem to be waving for michel? - got a feeling it's grace who eliminates leon when he outlives his usefulness or becomes too ambitious - in DYRL, it was misa who ran into hikaru and minmei embracing, right? so misa=ranka in this instance. but given how they seem to be twisting every homage, this may actually be in favor of sheryl. i just hope sheryl lives past the revelation moment

dang, it went on to set 5..

i took a leap of faith when i blindly pre-ordered last week, so these pics are certainly encouraging. i think i'll add another one and make it a non-transforming fighter

this is official art for macross chronicles, right? i wonder if this is a hint that sheryl gets alto in the end. ok, no stoning now.. and i wonder if it's just me, but those sure look like voodoo dolls.. unnecessary i would think, considering the charms they already possess.

would anyone know how much the YF-21 goes for in HK stores these days? might pick one up in transit but have to factor it into the luggage plans. thanks.

i dunno, for me it's ranka that's a ticking timebomb, maybe literally with what's inside her glowing tummy

that is creepy.. when i watched the live, blurry picture and all, my impression was of a heart. (could be birdman's..) and i don't know if it was just because i was groggy from staying up late, but i thought i saw/heard it start to beat when ranka sang normal aimo in fold space.

back in ep4 (i think) there was a red lobster that hid out (or nested) in one of the islands before it was roused by ranka's singing (thereafter alto, sheryl and ranka were trapped in one of the maintenance tubes). come to think of it, wasn't it sheryl singing? can't remember now. edit: sniped! but that's cool

i take it back. and i hope i'm wrong.

the ghost is nice, but that LAV is just wow! what base kit did you use? is it 1/72 too?

i wouldn't mind propping up her hopes and dreams

SHAVED! ... er, i meant SAVED it to my harddrive

tried this and they're showing M0. not sure though if this is MBS and MF will follow edit: guess i'm not the first to try

i think hobbyfan still has some resin monsters. you might also try e2046

pre-ordered! for those interested in sky crawlers, their up for early bird too.

thought i missed the boat on the VF-1S strike set (after foolishly cancelling my early bird), but managed to replace the order at HLJ last friday and just got payment request today. so those looking for this set and finding it out of stock elsewhere, seems HLJ still has some stock left.

what's that other mech with the bunny slippers?

this latest news made me curious, so i took out my very first valk from years of storage, a 1/60 VF-1J. no black stripes means it's TV version, right?
