    Twitter user @KAZE is continuing their excellent work speculating on what the Macross Delta valk designs might look like.
  2. Tochiro
    While it's not 100% Macross, there's the Miyatake exhibit in Yokosuka starting Oct 24. Of course in the U.S, there's Macross World Con on Oct 17.

    Unfortunately that's very very very unlikely, sorry

    Time to play 'Let's spot the SpeakerPODcast members in the front row. (Hint: there's two of us). Let's! (^_−)

    Pixiv artist Kenji Takahashi (@Kaze) has been speculating on Twitter about what one of the new Delta Valkyries might possibly look like. Here's what he came up with.

    You should be watching the scoopda thread where this has been discussed since last week ;-)
  8. Tochiro
    Well, that's already been done ;-)

    Will look into it. Thanks for the heads up! I'll look into getting those links fixed, but in the meantime, this link should get you to ep 1 part 1: http://www.macrossworld.com/4600/4600/ For ep.9 part 1, the file is downloadable still if your use the right click and save option. Hope to have better fixes soon!

    Unfortunately there is no information as to whether any of the Bluray re-releases have Englih subtitles at this point. The Amazon listings do not mention subtitles either. This may change but IMO it is not a promising sign.

    It's not a commercial item, it's a ticket bonus.
  12. Tochiro
    It's a special ticket preorder exclusive for Tamashii Nations 2015 at the end of October.

    Already have my tic preordered :-) Saw one in person on the weekend. Actually looked better than I expected.

    In the latest episode of SpeakerPODcast we are talking...what else?.... DELTA! http://www.macrossworld.com/speakerpodcast-ep-28-release-the-draken/

    Episode 28 is up! Time to talk DELTA! http://www.macrossworld.com/speakerpodcast-ep-28-release-the-draken/

    Just the facts ma'am. Just the facts :-)

    And after having been to his lectures and spent a bunch of time recently getting a personal tour of his exhibit with the man himself, after which we discussed stealth in Valkyrie design, I think I have as much of a grasp on his design philosophy as anyone else. And I give the man the respect he is due by sticking the the facts and what he says without resorting to 'fan-wank.' I take the time and effort I do to report these facts so that fan-wank isn't necessary. At least ask the man before resorting to such. As I said, there was absolutely NOTHING in his language, nuance or context that would lead one to speculate like that. If you insist on doing so regarding news I translate and report then what's the use in me doing it at all? I might as well just stop providing information for the fans here altogether.

    Well you can read into it what you like, but you would be wrong. He was talking in terms of the way it will transform and how this will be an evolution based on the 25 - 29 - 30 (ie, modern Frontier Valkyries). Just that and nothing more. Remember, Kawamori designs from an aesthetic base first (from the silhouette - this is a design principle he has followed since his earliest days as a volunteer intern at Stufio Nue), mechanical second, and then engineering considerations are often hammered out afterwards. The man is far more artistically oriented in his design process than engineering oriented, especially at these early stages. So feel free to think what you like but let's avoid putting words into the man's mouth or presuming intent when there is none, eh?

    That would certain be cool, wouldn't it? Even if there was just a throwaway reference to her :-)
  20. Tochiro
    Hence, 'canon'.
  21. Tochiro
    Macross 30 is as 'canon' as anything else in the franchise. It got its own range of valk toys from Bandai and made its Super Robot Wars debut recently which places it in the same standing as a fully fledged TV series or OVA in many ways.
  22. Tochiro
    Well, Kawamori said months ago that the new Macross would most likely be set in a different part of the galaxy to Frontier. (Discussed on SpeakerPODcast several times, just FYI ;-)
  23. Tochiro
    No, if it was I would've mentioned as such. That sort of major information will possibly be revealed during the Oct 29 stream or else closer to broadcast.
  24. Tochiro
    The Frontier boxset? Still readily available both new and second hand and heavily discounted last I checked. Have you tried Amazon japan?
  25. Tochiro
    Just to confirm what was meant with the stealth comments - he is trying to steer away from stealth elements in REAL world designs when designing new valks. He wasn't referring to stealth being a factor at all in Delta.
