  1. If they are putting back in the censored scenes then i'm in. What's the cheapest place to get it from?
  2. Got my missed drop off notice today. I'll have to pick it it up tomorrow. I got hammered with custom fees - over $50 dollars worth. Damn this is ended up being a $450 doller valk for me. It better be worth it.

    Got a preorder in at amiami now at a cheaper price. May cancel my cdjapan one now.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Put my on Delta 01's list as the tie breaker.
  5. I envision many yellow stripped vf-2ss's being sold on ebay without the sap pack.

    There won't be armoured parts. It's going to be sound booster parts.
  7. Ugh really the yellow one. Do these guys know what they're doing? The Nexx version is the only other bankable version. The list price before discount is Arcadia levels. Thats some preorder discount.

    Totally forgot about this. Still managed to get one at cdjapan. Even got to used my points. Basically got free shipping.
  9. That's too bad. I really like to know the story behind ending it like that, what happened behind the scenes, etc. It's the only show that i recall doing this that wasn't outright cancelled.

    Not sure what my favorite is right now. I'm tied with 1 2 and 5. The more i watch the show my favorite will become apparent. Delta 02 seems the closest to the osma color scheme (but not really that close). I'm surprised they didn't try to go0 for the same look due to how popular osma's color scheme was. It's funny when watching the episode whenever they showed delta 2's pilot, my brain immediately matched him as the blue guy even though he doesn't fly the blue valk. LOL.
  11. What?! the heat shield scratches the canopy? Does this happen every time to everyone or only limited to the occasional valk? Now i got to go check mine since i got in battroid mode. Jeez arcadia, way to make owning this valk more stressful than it already is.
  12. i might preorder this is they improved the tampo mainly the intake markings.
  13. Amen. I first got into anime in the late 70s/early 80s because i was a sci-fi fan and i ran out of sci-fi to watch. Anime back then had a lot of sci-fi/space opera type shows so i moved into anime. I eventually got into other types of anime. They don't make the types of shows that originally got me interested in anime. Honestly the last 7 years of anime has been pretty unbearable for me. Can't stand this moe/pedophilia stuff they are pushing.
  14. Yeah it got stupid in season two when it became a harem show and had a talking penis become part of a love triangle with the main character.
  15. I was hoping they would use the regular teal colored VF-171s. Hoping this would prompt bandai to re-release that version without the breakage flaws.
  16. In just marathoned a bunch of these posts and was reminded in one of them about something i wasn't exactly clear on regarding reaction weapons. Reaction weapons are suppose to be clean nukes? The Zentraedi want the macross for the reaction weapons? Wouldn't this be something they could get their hands on without having to go through the trouble of going after the macross?
  17. I just saw the sub. I didn't hate it as much as i was expecting to but i'm not a fan of adopting the modern anime style that is prevalent this day. It's why my anime viewing is pretty much nil these days with some exceptions. Knights of Sidonia had promise until it got stupid in the second season. It's fine that they are trying to be more marketable to make more money which is a good thing for us. Macross has always had fantastical elements and some really shakey science thus definitely not realistic. It however had believable characters which were grounded in reality. Delta is not the first series to do this but it is still missed. Some random thoughts: Looks like Destroids still can't out regualts even when the pilots are out of their mind. Who would choose to pilot a destroid? I still don't buy that the human race could've expanded across the galaxy in only 50 years even considering they cloned themselves and integrated other cultures (Zolans etc). Come think of it shouldn't there be copies of our heroes from the first series out there somewhere. I'm curious the relation of this Jenius to Max. She doesn't seem to be that great of a pilot. If she is related to Max, i wonder how she ended up on the outer rim in the total opposite direction of most of her family. Unless travel around the galaxy is so quick and easy these days. So a immigration fleet settled on the wind planet and assimilated into their society. I guess that means that they potentially have a New Macross class and maybe a Macross Quarter of their own. Not to mention the valkyries. Maybe the draks were derived from them? The crazy Ariel knight with the long pinkish/red hair reminds me so much of the crazy enemy gundam pilots from series like Gundam Seed.
  18. I was temped to get another as well but too much other stuff coming up quick. Also having to pay for those 2 vf-1s roy hi-metals unexpectedly. Oh well i feel like i dodged the bullet with the leg issue. Probably won't be as lucky a second time.
  19. I'm waiting to get mine until Jenius gets his. If the leg is going to break it will for him
  20. Never been able to sit through an episode of Muv-Luv even though the mecha kinda look interesting.

    One of the podcasters said you weren't going to like it. Not joking.
  22. Tried watching the nvideo through my vpn unlimited connection through a japan server. It didn't seem to think i was from japan. Any ideas?
  23. I would the the intake markings tampoed on this re-release.
