  1. Why don't you buy them from eBay or better yet Twin Moons Anime or Valkyrie-Exchange?
  2. How does Soze make sure you get a perfect version? I'm sure he gets a random selection in a box just like every other seller. Oh and Dr Clay, it's not that bad. Just some minor QC issues. Exceept maybe for the paint, everything else is unnoticeble.
  3. I got my VF-1S Hikaru yesterday. I too have noticed some QC problems on my valkyrie. 1. Mine had the same problem with the black paint as Tamim did. Except mine is on the chest pieces instead of the wing. 2. I noticed little bits of plastic from where panel lines were etched in where still attached. Nothing big, just had to scrape them off. 3. Some dried glue running from the front of the hip piece where the air intake is. The glue itself was not a problem but the little pieces of dust/dirt that got glued on had to be scraped off. Hmm, I wonder what happened to Yamato? Their previous Max and Low Viz had an exceptionally good quality to them. Did they switch factories or something?
  4. Why do that to a perfectly good toy?
  5. Either Prime or the the 1/48 VF-1J.
  6. I nominate EXO to give up all his Yamato 1/48.
  7. I was thinking about getting it since I already got the Mospeada box set. But after seeing the previews, I don't think I will get it.
  8. I'm collecting the extended versions only. If an uber box set comes out, I'll probobly pass on it. At the moment I am waiting for the Alien 9 disc uber box set that's suppose to be out by the end of the year.
  9. I'd go with the YF-19 cause it looks better.
  10. I only have the following reissues: Super VF-1S VF-1S Roy VF-1J Hikaru VF-1A Hikaru VF-1A CF
  11. I think it should be in this order: 1. Macross 2. Robotech 3. DYRL (Macross movie) 4. Clash of the Bionoids (shitty english dub) 5. Macross II (later was found to be illegitamate and an alternate timeline) 6. Macross Plus (the legitimate timeline) 7. Macross 7 (legitimate timeline after Macross Plus) Please note DYRL and Clash of the Bionoids doesn't really fall anywhere in the Macross timeline as it was suppose to be a "movie within a movie" that takes place in Macross 7. Confused yet? Go here for more info: Link

    YF-21 FP

    1: You need to pull the hips down until you hear a click. That means the hips are locked and won't push back up unless you provide sufficient upward pressure to the hip slider 2: You just need to be persistant. You may need something narrow like a nail file to push it down but getting your fingernail in the gap between the gun and the folded handle should work 3: The covers need to be up close to be the body and rotated so they are at the side of the leg eg: I hope that helps Thanks Valkyrie Nut. That does help a lot. But now I'm confused. In Battloid mode, shouldn't the slider thingy be set so it's not extended? Or is it suppose to be in extended position? I hope my questions makes sense.
  13. he did. in the opening scene. I meant instead of that particular fighting scene. Maybe I'm just nitpicking too much. I always do that with movies.
  14. Try http://www.desktopdelirium.tk/. They only have a few Macross Plus wallpapers but I think they look great. I currently using the one below:
  15. I think the sushi chep scene was the best in the movie. Better than the table speech scene. Great dialogue. The only thing that bothered me about the movie was when they decided to go black and white, you could totally tell Uma's stunt double was some short stocky Japanese guy. Don't get me wrong, I think the sword fights were awesome, but the black and white thing just added to much contrast. Maybe Quentin should of added the black and white in a different scene.
  16. You can just keep doing this over and over can't you?
  17. Yeah, after seeing that clip a couple of weeks ago for the first time, I was very dissapointed. Specially with Macross Zero out.
  18. I think that veritech looks pretty sweet. I'm not a big fan of Robotech as mush as I was before I found Macross and DYRL. But I thinks it's great the HG is making the YF-1R. The color looks nice. If Yamato made one of these, I'd buy it.
  19. The new Viper looks cheesy in that picture. I miss the old show. I hope the new one has the same feel to it.
  20. First I tell myself "I'm only going with the 1/48s." Then after seeing the GBP armor, I say "okay, I'll have to get the 1/60s too, at least the ones with attachable FAST packs." Today, I go to Frank & Sons and buy myself the YF-21 (pain in the ass) w/FAST pack and the VF-11B w/FAST pack. I guess this means I'm getting them all now. <_

    YF-21 FP

    I just bought the YF-21 with FAST packs today at Frank & Sons. I have a couple questions as well. 1. In Battloid mode, do the legs lock in a anyway? I'm not talking about the lower leg coming out of the upper leg. I'm referring to the slider thingy that that legs and joints are attached to. I noticed that whenever I try to pick it up the legs slide down and when I set it back on the ground it slides back up again. I hope you understand which slider thingy I'm talking about. 2. The gunpods handles are stuck (I think). How do you get the handle to flip open? 3. In Gerwalk mode, the leg covers (where the FAST pack attaches to) always gets in the way. I don't know if I'm transforming it wrong, but what's the best way to place the leg cover in Gerwalk mode?

    1:60 GBP-1 !?

    I never knew the GBP armor boosters were different from the FAST Pack version. Oh I see, so instead of the cone shaped rockets it's got the square shaped ones. Also it looks longer than the FAST Pack boosters. Is there any other difference between the FAST Pack boosters and the GBP boosters?
  23. Welcome aboard.
  24. Well the best version to get with "great" or "perfect" translation would be the Animeigo set. Then you're looking at $65.00 per box set. Each box set has 3 DVDs and there are a total of 9 DVDs. You can them here at Twin Moons Anime: http://www.tmpanime.com/ Otherwise, if you don't want to spend too much, the bootlegs that Kevin carries are the next best thing.
  25. I ask my friends for toys all the time. However every year they always get me the wrong thing. One time I gave them a direct link to the Yamato I wanted at Valkyrie-Exchange, you can't get any more direct than that. You know what I got instead? An MPC.
