So the only place I might find them is Yahoo Japan auctions at this point? I thought I read the Brutish did get the fixes. It was the first 3 that were messed up; Scope, Purple One, Another Scope I think -- then they made some of the fixes. promethuem5 - you in the house? You have the Brutish correct? And what do people her know of the 2 Wave pilot figures?

I'm looking for 4 Votoms items and I need some help: Want the Yamato 1/12 Last Red Shoulder Turbo Custom Set, Brutish Dog, Chirico Figure and Fayana Udo Figures. Any ideas where I can get these other than Yahoo Japan? I saw the Fayna on HLJ at a reasonable price. SO TO MY REAL QUESTIONS: Is the Dog in this ToysRUs Combo Pack the Last Red Shoulder version I'm looking for? Or should I just get the one pictured below in the red box to be safe? I want to get the one will ALL the joint updates and fixes. If I do get the red box version - what accessory packs will I also want for this (and the Brutish Dog)? Looks like many of the accessories come in the Red Shoulder version . . .

Gun straps would be another cheap PLUS to get fans excited. Probably too late for that now . . .

Its a shame CMs couldn't do this on their own so we didn't have to. I have not yet taken the plunge and gotten one of these Legioss sets, but if I do I might be shipping you the tail fins for the fix. I can't imagine this hurting the resale value, only increasing it.

I like Toynami's use of 5 shades of brown on the cannon fodder 1A, and making the face pre-battle-damaged for us. I will be getting all their vinyl line, but none of their 1/100 valks that's for sure . . .

GREAT Pics - who woulda thought that matchbox guy would have any value in 2010 . . .

Poll- Which Macross/Robotech mecha would you like to see
DarrinG replied to Maiden Japan's topic in Toys
WHAT HE SAID; MISSILE REGULT, THEN GLAUG, THEN THE 3 GOSU VARIATIONS. (for the gosu, I hope the cockpit area can still be made of semi-clear plastic with a viewable pilot inside. A scout regult would need its bubble in plastic anyway so you may need to mix the materials somehow - not sure if plastic and vinyl can be linked in a high-quality way though . . .) -
It's not an either - or situation. I ordered the vinyl already, will probably be pleased with it especially at that price. And I would order a 1/60 if I could afford it. I think the 1/60 V2 valks from Yamato are very popular, so when we see pod toys coming out we get to thinking what if . . .
-
Yes - I am a wishful thinker. SO NEXT QUESTION - Does the $200 price point put it in danger of just a one release and done scenerio? In other words not enough folks will be able to buy the first one and then we'll never see the missile versions or Glaug? Think BEAGLE . . .

So we have 1/35th (never knew about this!), 1/72nd & 1/100th models, 1/100th vinyl toy and who know what scale the revys are. Now we just need the 1/60th with opening hatch and T-Rex type pilot. AS FOR 1/60th SCALE PRICE - I would expect it to be about $70 with no pilot and hatch, $99 with pilot figure. That sound right? Seems like Yamato will eventually take the plunge, especially if Toynami sells out quickly...

Got the CMs TV Version "Assault Galient" - what a tremendous piece of floppy crap. What makes this rubbery mess more of a head-scratcher is the excellent sculpt, packaging and extras. The creativity and attention to detail are great, but this should never have been allowed out the CMs door. It can hardly stand. 'Flaccid' may be a good word here. Pieces are falling off every few seconds, legs, knee joint swinging like a clock - just awful. POSITIVES • ALL the extras you could want • Great color, sculpt • Cool details like plasma gun tube plugging into leg, whip-sword etc NEGATIVES • Crumbles from almost any pose, • Sheds off ankle guards, hip armor, entire legs - like a dog in summer • Rubbery materials, gun barrels bent, basically 'gummy-galient' VERDICT - Seems to be made of the same materials Revoltech uses, except they should have used revy joints to keep it together, and included a revy stand to hold the thing up. I've heard CMs Mospeada ride-armors are a floppy mess with ejecting parts, was thinking about getting them, they'll probably have to stay in cycle mode if they're anything like this. So unless you're going to glue it in place save your money . . .

So if you take this drawing and put the T-REX soldier as the pilot how tall would that make a "1/60" Pod?
-
O h Well if they can do that 1/60 shouldn't be that hard . . .
-
Wait sec here - what is this?? This is not the RB vinyl pod right? This looks more, well 1/60 scale right? & what is that weird split thing in the metal just below the knees?
-
I think the key is not having all of them coming out at once - its just too much . . .

FIRE! ( thanks I O )

Having issues - I used these direction on Flickr - not working yet. Sorry if I'm a dunderhead . . . http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/438734..._4fce4992cd.jpg

Maybe I will . . .
-
Oh - I probably won't do that. Does it take a long time to click and open one of my pics from thumbnail? I size them down to 300 to 800 pixels wide but it may still be a problem for some . . .

Was there too much saki going around during the animation of this episode? First - he's all white from above (maybe glare? not) - and as he's walking the red stripe goes from his head to his shoulder and back . . . Wonder what the engines will look like after this thing goes back to fighter mode? HEY THOUGH - I see all my pics are small thumbnails, but many post here with the image filling the page so surfers do not have to click and open the photo -- how is this done? Anyone?

Strike A Pose! V.4 - The Macross Mech Pose Thread
DarrinG replied to JCSaves's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Protect the Sizing Chamber! Still need a Phalanx getting smashed by a Nousjadeul-Ger to make it complete! -
RANGER 565 - do you have any pics of dioramas you've done? I'm anxious to see how you're going to go about this classic scene . . .
-
Protect the Sizing Chamber! My ID really needs the gray side and neck covers, will have to get a set from EXO. And speaking of the 1D - I almost broke it changing to Battroid. The upper leg piece paint fused to the body and would not separate . . . see pic. But enough of that! The GBP is OUTSTANDING. OOzes high quality. Love the little shin reflectors. So much fun to put on. If you're a Macross fan and are on the fence about this - get it.

No landing gear? Not even on the new one with the figure? I would it park it close to the ID in a display if it had LGears, I guess it would just have to be coming in for a landing instead. Will wait to see what Yamato does next . . .
