I used to have the VE-1 & Max's SD valk's, but got lost over the years. They are fun little kits to have.....Wish I still had them.

Its the next Model on my wish list!!! Great review & the pictures/poses are great!

Mikimoto.... We should live so long!!!

I was pushing 7 years old when Macross released!!! And it just gets better & better over time!!!

Hi everyone, well it comes to making a simple Hasegawa or Bandai model kit, I can do pretty well. However when it comes to something custom and from the ground up, scratch building is not my specialty. I have a few Macross Items I would like to have made custom, If you know how to mold parts, make them from scratch (Resin, Silicone, polystyrene, vacuum forming or fiberglass). Please email me, I'd like to talk to you and see if we can work something out.

thats kinda what I figured. maybe I'll get another one....Flanker camo scheme!!!!!!!

I haven't purchased a VF-1 1/60 v.2 yet, so I am out of the loop a bit... Are we having the VF-0 effect again!!?? Come on Yamato get this VF-1D right, No more SNAFU's!!!

From the ad, it does not look like a new pattern or anything, might just be mentioning that its being re-released like the VF-0B & Low vis. VF-1A perhaps?? Would be cool if it was a new design!!

No troubles Miriya, Either way any info is good stuff!!!

Part of Sumdumgai's post: Ozma survived a pineapple dish and got to eat it, Roy didn't. Ummmm, Roy was shot a few times in the back by a Meltrandi pilot, Pretty sure the pineapple salad didn't get him.

Your "hunch" sounds like an interesting one, i look forward to hearing more about it.

No new updates or info I take it. Well if anyone hears anything new.....

The boys from the SDF-1, Roy, Max, Hikaru & yes, even Kakizaki would have turned the Vajra into Lobster Bisque for dinner!! Roy is a killer, Hikaru kicks ass, Max is pure talent and skill, And for Hayao Kakizaki...its him. But he was cooler than Luca was. Just picture Roy & Max behind the controls of a VF-25....DAM!!!

As for the new paint schemes, they look great. And of course I'll buy them, because I keep thinking if I through enough money at Hasegawa Macross models, they'll make a Gerwalk or a VF-11 or a VF-4. Yes, I live in a fantasy world. Stranger things have been seen, A VF-11 & VF-4 could very well be possible!!! If so and Hasegawa making them, could it get any better!!

Hey VF-25, I agree with you that it is not part of the Kawamori or Studio Nue time line, I'm just saying that every time this discussion comes up, seems like everyone can't wait to find a reason why it can not be accepted thats all. Its like a 10th commandment rule or something, "thou shall not ever find a connection in the time lines....EVER!!" I like Macross II and welcome it as part of the series as an equal.

I'm always amazed by the people who quite frankly do not like Macross II, do not except as a valid entry in to the macross world. Yet can't stop talking about it or finding ways to prove the fans of that series are wrong. Who died and made you all the official writers of macross. You don't like Macross II, fine. But let the fans of it enjoy it. I've been hearing this debate for years & years now. I saw it 1st in Japanese, then Translated & even in the Theater on Sunset Blvd. in LA. Loved it then, still love watching it now. If you can not get over the idea of Kawamori not being involved, too bad. Cry a river about it. There are many ways that Macross II could & can be involved in the official time line, yet however many of you seem to feel the urge of finding every way possible to denounce that idea.

Don't forget Vinnie that Gentex is US Military supplier, when they make HGU series helmets, they make them by the thousands, keeps the price down. These are made from scratch, so a bit higher is price, not mention lower quantities, However $1500 a helmet is way over priced no matter what!!

One day, One day my friend we might just see that. To see the actual Protoculture would absolutely amazing. And yes I hope it is very creepy in format!!

The Masterpiece Alphas have the worst landing gear design of all time. Because of that massive flaw in design on the rear struts & wheels, I just leave Alpha in the box!!!

Do You Remember Love. Then the original SDF TV series. All the other series are awesome too, but these are the legends.

See this why putting up a post is a good thing and you get to see what others are thinking as well. Gives me a better idea of what the super vision army sort of was, is a there a GOOD copy of Macross 7 subtitled? I need to watch that one!! If there were a million VF-27's running loose with the same cannon Brera had or stronger, I'd put up the white flag for surrender, That's a tough fighter to go up against!!! Even the SMS pilots with their VF-25 could barely take them on. But Bullet101 has a good point too, Civil War between the UN SPACY, it could work. But human vs. Human, could that fit in with the modern realm of Macross?? Since we it all originally started with the Anti-unification wars, pre-Space war 1.

Since we're talking about future Macross villains for what ever possible series may come about. And mind you macross 7 is the only one I really never watched, couldn't find a descent subbed version. So maybe I missed something.... What about the Supervision Army? Have they ever been exposed or seen in action...ever? Are they still active, still a menace? Or are they extinct and long gone. I just figure that we've well covered Zentradi/Meltrandi forces, The Vajra and the Birdman quite a bit, AI controlled idols & ghost fighters as well as the Marduk (That's from Macross II which no one ever seems to care about). So I figure why not the super Vision Army. Seriously, why not? How bad an idea could it be?

More than anything, my initial comment was just it was cool how Alto saluted in his VF-25 like Hikaru Ichijo did in DYRL. It looked to me like it was to both girls & everyone else. But yeah a debate over this has gone way too far!!! Lets just enjoy the moment!!!

Thank you VF-25!!! I knew I saw it that way too, just rewatched it to be certain!!!

Alto's VF-25 salute to Ranka & Sheryl was awesome, total homage to Hikaru Ichijo in DYRL!!
