  1. While we don't know what the details are on the licenses, they seem specific enough to allow both Toynami and KC to release transforming VF-1s- so the licenses are either not exclusive or they are very exclusive to specific scales (Toynami with 1/100 and KC with 1/72). So this may prove a difficulty for the HMR stuff (not that we have any of that coming out lately) but could open up the Arcadia 1/60 and Bandai 1/48 (or even a newer release of the chunkys again). Of course, the fact I'm not seeing some of the non-Macross HMR stuff like Dougram already floating around in the states does temper any excitement I might have that we'll see anything on shelves here anytime soon. If anything, we'll maybe see availability in BBTS (hopefully).
  2. I thought the same. I almost felt we'd been past April already. It's been that sort of year.
  3. The SC cover is a couple posts above, but here is a repost: No visibility on a limited variant or variants like they did for Macross yet, but I suspect they'll do one or both series in "leatherette".
  4. Yep, and looks like this will be one of the variant covers: Also looks like they will be Kickstarting so it looks like it isn't a set-in-stone release yet (though Kickstarting is how a lot of game companies are ensuring a market ahead of time now, even if a number of folks got burned in the RRT fiasco with Palladium).
  5. Yeah, I know MEP was asking if people wanted 1/48 to scale with the common legioss scale or if they should upscale for more detail.
  6. That was the initial prototype. They've refined the design a bit to make it look better. Here's a few shots from the FB page of the factory sample (unpainted). It isn't Cap awesomeness, but as I've said before, I can't make a model look good to save my life. I posted a picture of the packaging some time back as well- I'll see if I can find it.
  7. Last thing I have is some of the early release stuff that mainly showed what content and which order it will be in. I haven't chatted with the authors in a bit, but the image further up the thread is supposed to be from one of the front covers (I know they released the original Macross book in three different covers).
  8. My eyes have been looking a bit bulgy lately, but then I thought that was just the blood pressure.
  9. OK, someone created this and said "Now this is possible" I had to laugh:
  10. Macross Youtube channel is no longer region locked. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKeM8HXpwR0qc0RtH0GKyMg
  11. Origin of the Veritech! Ouch- I'm kidding. I'm kidding. STOP HITTING ME!
  12. No pricing yet, but MEPTOYS prices have been all over- the Breetai was relatively inexpensive for what it was at $18 (even if articulation was limited), the small scale (1/145) Invid/Inbit resin figures are $8 for a fighter scout/Iigaa to $15 for an enforcer/gamo. So it's tough to see what the final price may be.
  13. Cap's are definitely superior but I'm also crap at modelling. These are supposed to scale with the Sentinels but until we see a comparison pic it will be hard to tell.
  14. I will not complain if they put a vtol on a black one. I'm not entirely sure why it was left off of them in the first place.
  15. No VTOL, no shoulder sensor, different shoulders/engines (but that is difficult to pull off to be anime accurate in all modes) and different head (but that difference is obvious). I'll jump on a black one for sure. But hell, I'll jump on any version tbqh.
  16. Grabbing mine from BBTS- I just grabbed a bunch of stuff from Yahoo JP and need to space out the mech buying a little more.
  17. I think it has been a case of scalpers seeing the prices for previous releases, they are expecting a Roy premium, them jumping in harder than before, and now these scalpers are stuck with inventory.
  18. Yep- my understanding is that SMG is continuing their regular RPG combining Masters(SC)/New Gen(Mospeada) in one book and Sentinels/Shadow Chronicles in another. I haven't seen the SMG covers yet (though I saw real early drafts of some of the interior content). The Savage Worlds supplements are also going the same route, with draft artwork for the Masters/New Gen and Sentinels/Shadow Chronicles books (though hopefully they don't use those fonts for the titles.
  19. It means you don't need one for each mode *and* an extra in the box.
  20. I just love that you referenced it as your "smack dealer".
  21. HLJ must be sick of all the stock people have sitting in their private warehouses, because they sent me this:
