    knock-off

    Being from Hong Kong should NOT be a red flag for anyone. I've dealt with many HK sellers and they've all been highly reputable and more professional than most of the US sellers I've dealt with. And most of the stuff I've gotten has only taken 1 to 2 weeks to arrive. The only trouble is opening the box and instantly being infected with an exotic flu. well your situation is unique to mine. Whether I'm buying DVD's, video games, R/C and real car parts, Macross toys, you name it I always notice HK sellers trying to pass off bootleg #hit as the real thing. It pretty disturbing but Taiwan doesn't have to observe the same international copyright laws and so vendors on the mainland and HK get lots and lots of stuff from there. I also catch lots of sellers from New York City selling fake garbage. so just be smart and beware these guys. this is after all what the threads about, not some national pride "stick up for HK w00t" thing.. (top post again!!!111 Like the 10th one so far!!!11) C'mon, we know you hate skinny little Chinese guys! http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...ic=12741&st=440
  2. Wow, that's it awesome condition. Is it yours? Let's see some more pics.
  3. Do you have any larger pictures of your personal photo?
  4. Don't make yourself look like an ass by using words you don't understand; I'm pretty sure you weren't implying Panzer is of Indo-Iranian descent. Edumacate yo'self: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=aryan If you're still confused about what I was implying, here's a quote from the link YOU provided....ass. Racist connotations Another meaning refers to the Aryan race in the radical and distinctive usage of the term "race", according to which humanity as a whole is divided into distinct races with separate characteristics. This meaning was, and still is common in theories of racial superiority, which were embraced by Nazi Germany. This usage tends to blur the Sanskrit meaning of 'noble' or 'elevated' with the idea of distinctive ancestral ethnicity marked by language distribution. In this interpretation, the Aryan Race is both the highest representative of humanity and the purest descendent of the Proto-Indo-European population. According to Alfred Rosenberg's ideology the "Nordic-Atlantean" (nordisch-atlantisch) or "Aryan-Nordic" (arisch-nordisch) race corresponded to this ideal and was thus a master race, at the top of a racial hierarchy, with the Negro race at the bottom. The Semitic race, represented by the Jews, was deemed to be a racial threat to Germany's homogeneous Aryan civilization. Nazism portrayed their interpretation of an "Aryan race" as the only race capable of creating culture and civilizations, while other races are merely capable of some preservation, or destruction of, culture. Because of historical racist use of Aryan, and especially use of Aryan race in connection with the myths and propaganda of Nazism, the word is sometimes avoided as being tainted. Similarly, the swastika was an ancient Aryan/Sanskrit symbol chosen by Hitler for its Aryan significance, to the effect that it is now often identified with Nazism. As a linguistic technical term, Aryan is in continued use without any ideological implication.

Edumacate yo'self: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=aryan Yes, I'm an ass. I was imlying that Panzer was a Nazi Poster-boy.
  6. But didn't you notice, it was the boys trying to grab his dick, not the girls. Anyway, I'm surprised Michael Jackson never went to teach English in Japan, I'm sure he would have loved a job where young boys try to grab his dick all day . Graham He doesn't need to go to Japan for that. He has money to bring them to him.
  7. And you don't have anything against gay people either? http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...ic=13256&st=260 I smell a brownshirt.
  8. I've heard about the bogeyman, but I don't believe it. WAAH WAAAH WAAAAAH That last one made 980rwhp on the stock block. I know all those #uckers. these guys too: www.wotm.com fast cars (9 second Supras) but douche bag drivers. almost had to beat Ryans ass once in HS. I'm sure his skinny little chinese ass would have just sued anyways.. What race are you? Guessing from your name, probably Aryan.
  9. You gotta be kidding right?
  10. I heard the official trailier is coming out next week.
  11. Don't have kids yet either but when/if we do, they're going to speak Japanese so we're not going to have to worry about subtitles.....I just hope they're not going to have trouble with English! My wife-to-be is Japanese and I think it will take me another two to three years for me to have a conversational grasp on the language. By the time we start spitting out kids, it shouldn't be a problem. I don't think I will expose them to the poisons of HG, but hell, they might not like Macross anyway. I wonder, do hardcore-otaku parents force their kids to like the stuff they like? For example, the uber-nerd known collectively known as "Trekkies" do some horrible things in their personal lives. Yuck! Barney and Teletubbies are not and will not be permitted in my home.
  12. I heard you can put one together for less than 30 grand. I'd do it but two cars is enough for me (no more money).
  13. I'm not really looking at her eyes.
  14. Yes, yes, I agree...more pics! More pics! Of every possible angle!
  15. It would be cool to know what hands he used on it I'd like to know too. Think maybe they're custom? Those guys that build Gundams are really good at making custom hands that are fully poseable, using copper wire and styrene.....
  16. Minmei's got awesome legs.
  17. I've seen one in Japan that shoots airsoft BBs....goes for about $5000 though.
  18. But then you'd have a souped up coupe version of a boring family sedan, instead of an expensive exotic. Apples to oranges. He's only saying that cause he doesn't have a million bucks. I have a feeling that not many of us here do. But, if I did have the kind of money where buying a million dollar car was nothing, I wouldn't stop there. I'd have to have at least a Mclaren F1 (dated, but still awesome) in my collection as well. I'd also get several GT-Rs (R32, R33, and R34). Hell, I'd have a whole fleet different cars, like my Grand Tourismo garage!
  19. Never store Nuclear(Reactive) ordinnance thusly: http://www.tmpforums.com/incoming/Rhoel7/Dio4.jpg Ever. Yeah, I heard you're not supposed to stack nuclear weapons.
  20. Ouch man, those are some harsh words. Funny as hell, but harsh.
  21. And yes, these have got to be the world's sexiest renditions of Minmei. They can't be beat.
