    Macross figures

    Not if you are with a fellow otaku/geek it isnt :-)
  2. Nothing that has been announced, but Macross follows a very unique cycle - theres always a number of years between series/OVAs. But all good things come to those who wait. It makes every new entry into the franchise we all love that little bit more special :-)
  3. Amazon JP is your best bet although you may need to use a 3rd party proxy since they wont ship it overseas. http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%90%E3%83%B3%E3%83%80%E3%82%A4%E3%83%8A%E3%83%A0%E3%82%B3%E3%82%B2%E3%83%BC%E3%83%A0%E3%82%B9-%E5%8A%87%E5%A0%B4%E7%89%88%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9F-30th-d%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A5%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BFb-BOX/dp/B00HHLI1PG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395031218&sr=8-1&keywords=%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A5%E3%83%87%E3%82%A3%E3%82%B9%E3%82%BFbox CD Japan is listing it as out of print, but may get it back in stock later. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/BLJS-93014 Play Asia has it listed at a ridiculous price. You might want to try emailing them and confirming it. http://www.play-asia.com/gekijouban-macross-f-30th-d-shudisuta-b-box-blu-ray-hybrid-disc-paOS-13-49-jp-70-7jo1.html The 'official' pre-order cut-off was March 15 (ie, 2 days ago) which is probably why many sites have suddenly listed it as out of stock or have started charging bizarre prices. I don't think its THAT limited, so if you havent secured one already, I doubt they will be THAT difficult to get once the box is released in May.
  4. Thank goodness the books arent 'canon' then, eh?
  5. This thread was so good we took the topic and ran with it for the final third of the latest podcast. http://www.macrossworld.com/6283/macross-speakerpodcast-ep-12-part-2-hound-squadron-scramble/ Thanks for the great discussion and inspiration everyone!
  6. Yep. And heaven forbid Sevakis be positive about anything in his life (that doesn't include the 90's or happily reminiscing about how goth he was). Feedback went from interesting (guy on page 5 giving his thoughts on the HG issue) to ludicrous (someone inferring in a round about manner they 'Fire Bombers' are on the same level of licensing cost as a Johnny's band). http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2826061&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45
  7. The Macross Plus BDs get a mention in this weeks Answerman column. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2014-03-14

  9. And, we are back with part 2! http://www.macrossworld.com/6283/macross-speakerpodcast-ep-12-part-2-hound-squadron-scramble/ Mylene Night, the Valkyrie Project controversy, Is Macross too expensive?? We've got one heck of an episode folks!
  10. All they have mentioned so far is the F (and the announcement was made in a really confusing way too but that red text on the website clarified things). Given that they are redoing the Tornado parts for both, maybe the will announce the reissue of the G soon too? One can hope but no official word as of yet.
  11. My bad - they sent out three different links at once because all were to do with July releases ^^; Let me try this again guys, sorry. They have started re-pimping the tornado parts because, YES - the VF-25F IS being REISSUED in JULY. http://tamashii.jp/item/1582/ (red text at bottom says its being reissued.) Details: ■DX超合金 VF-25F メサイアバルキリー(早乙女アルト機)リニューアルVer. 価 格:14,000円(税別) 発売月:2014年7月再販予定 商品仕様:ABS・ダイキャスト・PVC製 塗装済み完成品 Price: 14,000 yen (tax not incl.) Release Date: July, 2014 Materials used: ABS, diecast, PVC
  12. Visitors to Macross The Museum are in for a tasty treat :-)
  13. They are just the tornado parts. Valkyries not included.
  14. VF-25F & VF-25G Tornado Parts Reissues CONFIRMED http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/item-1000086779/ http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/item-1000086795/
  15. Bravo Sir! Now PLEASE put that up over at RT.com. I've been saying as much for a while as now, but apparently I've set off their 'red flag.' http://robotech.com/community/forum/read.php?id=2187907&forumid=31&pagenumber=6 (seems like those folks don't take well to a dose of their own double standards)
  16. Definitely some macross influence in at least one of these pics... http://kotaku.com/dreaming-of-giant-transforming-fighter-planes-1542697020/all
  17. Report from Mylene Night #04 http://www.macrossworld.com/6265/mylene-night-04-report-the-politics-of-music/
  18. Finally got my review up! http://www.macrossworld.com/6265/mylene-night-04-report-the-politics-of-music/
  19. For good pics of the 29, you could also use the HUD-free valkyrie viewer in Macross 30 (PS3).
  20. Latest Macross F Movie BD details! http://www.macrossworld.com/6256/macross-frontier-bd-extras-revealed/
  21. The whole reverse importing thing is more often than not an excuse. With the current state of the US anime market it is often just not financially viable to release physical boxsets of series (or video games for that matter!) outside of Japan. The ROI is often in the negative or else not enough to make it worthwhile. Latest details on boxset extras!!!! http://www.macrossworld.com/6256/macross-frontier-bd-extras-revealed/
  22. Ok, so far the story setup in episode 0 has me impressed. They explain how Labors are no longer viable in the modern world/recession/Japan no longer being at the technological forefront anymore. They explain what happened to the entire old cast. Only Shige is left from the old guard, although it looks like Noa returns as an instructor. This is pretty much a fully fledged sequel. I am impressed. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1fhrxr
  23. We give a full Winter Wonderfest report in the latest episode of Macross SpeakerPODcast! http://www.macrossworld.com/6136/macross-speakerpodcast-ep-12-part-1-winter-wonderland/
  24. Episode 12, Part 1 is UP! http://www.macrossworld.com/6136/macross-speakerpodcast-ep-12-part-1-winter-wonderland/ To summarize… every little boy wants to grow up to be a Gerwalk.

    I was always partial to this one. Picked it up a few years back but unfortunately it looks like it has more than quadrupled in price since. http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/t_h_mackys179/61232355.html
