  1. So far it feels like an Escaowne/Gundam hybrid, which isn't a bad thing. Am not a fan of the main mecha design though.
  2. The subbing of songs is something that may be tricky due to licensing issues but we will know when the set is released I guess. The extended ending is a credits sequence so theres no speech to subtitle. Based on my previous Bandai purchases, extras will not be subtitled. This IS the 'normal' (Read: Cheaper) release. The box set is cheaper than buying the two separate releases (deluxe editions) when they came out. This is only my opinion, but I wouldn't expect a cheaper release. As someone who works in the games industry in Japan, in my opinion your friend has no idea what he is talking about. And, of course, then theres all the PSP/PS3 Macross games as well.

  5. Amen to that. I have yet to crack the wrapper on my BD of Vol.7 because after seeing that particular chapter four times at the cinema, I can't bring myself to watch it on my home screen f^_^;
  6. For anyone interested, here is the new home of that fan artwork. https://www.facebook.com/robotechvisions
  7. Now with English subs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlvPR9XeZik
  8. Great job Sketchley, as always. You dedication to this project is humbling. While this is only my opinion, I have to disagree with the RE:Fire background story being surprising, since the exact same story was printed in the liner notes of the album - unless something has been added that I'm missing?
  9. Crunchyroll confirmed. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-12-30/crunchyroll-to-stream-nobunaga-the-fool-anime
  10. Also, a very clever promotional piece by some fans posing as actual Macross figures - kinda cool.

    Macross figures

    Very clever promotional piece by some fans posing as the actual figures.
  12. Comiket this year was all about quality over quantity for me, but I did end up scoring a bunch of great stuff, including the latest photo books from some of my favorite Macross cosplayers. The real find however was thanks to Bariaburu Faita who grabbed me one of the last 2 copies of my favorite Macross doujin artists DVD. Major kudos!
  13. Hit the 'Full Version' button at the bottom of the page and you can upload iPhone pics to your hearts (valks?) content
  14. First sample of new art for the Frontier movie BD boxset from Risa Ebata.
  15. Sample of boxset main image character art by Risa Ebata has just popped up!
  16. Transformation demonstrations are to be held by MISTER K HIMSELF! http://www.macrossworld.com/5897/learn-how-to-transform-a-yf-19/
  17. Those covers are copies of the japanese DVD box set that came out about 6 years ago (? from memory). The quality of the japanese discs was better than the Discotek ones - of course I have no idea whether the bootlegs are of the same quality.
  18. Just to double check - you are aware that the only boxsets with English subs are Macross Plus and the upcoming Macross F Movie boxset, correct? (Not to damper the enthusiasm or anything! Having a full set of Macross on BD is great! Or it WILL be...once Macross 2 finally gets a release!)
  19. Some new animation footage....and lots of puhrty puhrty boys...^^; http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-12-24/new-nobunaga-the-fool-tv-ad-previews-minori-chihara-theme-song
  20. Breaking news! 'MACROSS: THE MUSEUM' to travel to other cities in Japan during 2014. Organizes hint only that there will be a little something extra added to the exhibit. Details to follow as they are announced.
  21. Stumbled across a second hand copy of EARTH for 1700yen while waiting to meet a friend. Now I have a copy for work AND home! :-)
  22. When it says limited, it's only going to be manufactured (in this case) for 10 months. But preordering will net you the bigger discounts from online retailers.
  23. Well, Seed was always supposed to be a show that mixed elements from the older UC shows and add prettier animation on top to try to appeal to a new, younger audience. Essentially it was supposed to be Gundam's Macross Frontier (issues of cannonicity and continuity not withstanding). So, while that doesnt excuse its quality as a show, the approach it took was something that viewers already knew about. It's not like it was ripping said elements off and claiming they were original or anything. Ah Seed Destiny - I was in hospital for an operation when the 1st episode broadcast. I remember feeling considerably worse after watching it from the hospital bed, lol.
  24. The second part to my Miyatake piece is up! http://ourstarblazers.com/vault/821/
