Macross Δ (Delta) - announcement thread

I was referring to aircraft in general. But, it wouldn't be far fetched to show jets in a WWII movie since jet aircraft saw service before the end of WWII to be sure.All I'm saying is the idea of flying low over the water wasn't a novel concept when Macross was created. So, while Kawamori created a lot of new and interesting ideas and designs that wasn't one of them. And tactically speaking that was a dumb thing to do when going head to head in a dogfight with the enemy. Perhaps with the fictional thrust to weight ratios of VF-1 aircraft it's not as critical to have the high ground so to speak, but generally speaking it's better to attack from above. Though, it was a cool scene nonetheless, and a favorite of mine and many others I'm sure.

I didn't think you were being trollish. By today's standards those figures suck big time, but it's the best we've got so far since the old Matchbox figures. So I'll probably buy them if they aren't way overpriced.

Liking armored Gerwalk mode after seeing some of the posted pics. I managed to get the shoulder armor on, but I had to keep the wings swept all the way back. It also limits the arm movement a great deal. Still looks hella cool, though. If only there was a way to have some foot articulation with the foot covers you could get some better poses.

Thanks a million! I'll try it out. Also, for pointing me towards MPC-HC. Seems a lot simpler to use. Edit: One more thing. As you may know playing it while running AnyDVD gets rid of the menu and simply plays the movie. I notice 2 video files 00000.MPLS(1:55:03) and 00001.MPLS(1:55:02) I recall the DVD had 2 as well one "HD" and the other not. What are the 2 files on the Blu-ray? I couldn't quickly tell the difference when watching a bit of both files.

I'm the guy that got the 2nd to last.

Now there's none.

The customs office guy is probably having too much fun transforming it and swooshing it around. He probably wasn't able to order one himself.

I just want to say playability with these vs. perfect transformation shouldn't be underrated. I just tried to transform my VF-17S for the first time the other night. I was thinking it would be pretty straight forward given the nature of the design. I tell you I was nervous and sh..ing bricks thinking I was going to break something or ding a sharp edge/point the entire time. I was glad to finally get it back in fighter mode. Not a particularly enjoyable experience. I hope they make everything HMR over time. Then I can actually play with my toys from time to time.

Macross Frontier Movies BD Boxset WITH ENGLISH SUBS!
sharky replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Duh! That makes sense. I was just assuming super hyper ultimate boxsets come out first before the individual releases. I didn't even think to check the release dates on the webpage. My mistake.- 286 replies

Macross Frontier Movies BD Boxset WITH ENGLISH SUBS!
sharky replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
Don't know. I got mine from Amiami back when it was first released. I had 2nd thoughts because the price was so high. But, I felt better when I actually received it and saw how nice the entire set was. It has 2 full sized art books not the little handbooks you normally get.The thing I want to bring up is wouldn't the individual movie releases simply be the same actual Blu-ray disks as the box set? That is to say, wouldn't they also have subtitles if the original box set had subtitles?- 286 replies

sharky replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
And a glorious set it is. Looks like it's got a good discount on Amazon. It was worth the regular price, so the discount is a no brainer. That is, if you like the movies.- 286 replies

Macross Δ (Delta) - announcement thread
sharky replied to renegadeleader1's topic in Movies and TV Series
I wouldn't mind some scenes where, perhaps, they run out of ammo and have to resort to some melee weapons combat. But, I agree this should not be the typical scenario. Maybe something sprinkled in here and there.- 2715 replies

Cool. Pre-ordered one. What size are these BTW?

I think I'm going to display my VF-1J in Gerwalk mode as well. For some reason I don't display anything in Gerwalk. Not sure why I don't. I like all 3 modes just fine. But seeing pics of it with armor looks really good to me.

If I had to choose a Boba Fett type equivalent in Macross I would choose Milia. Kamjin was really just a big douche rather than a warrior with a coolness factor.But, I would think the Glaug will be sold quickly simply because the design is cool and there's never much emphasis to make toys of it, so I personally am chomping at the bit to buy it.

I like the look of them in those outfits best. Those are some fine collectables you have there. I'm assuming their expressions are in line with the type of dolls that they are. Personally it would look even nicer IMO with more of a smile.
