A bunch of the new Chronicle #1 + binder showed up on Y!J. The guy is asking for 780 jpy + 580jpy shipping for each Add bank fee and two-part shipping, it's going to cost about $30 shipped to US address. I can middle if anyone wants them.

I wish I could hear this song live. Also, in the scene where megaroad is taking off, is that suppose to be another Minmay walking by the crowd on the ground (as well as leaning on the handrail watching the ship leave?) I always thought that was symbolizing Minmay leaving a part of herself behind (the selfish immature part, or the part that's still in love with Hikaru).

Get two of each figure. =) Then there is no need to decide.

Figures And the poster the figures are based on. http://www.prizebp.jp/macross I will offer these then they are released in May.

Looks good. =) Any chance of making the control surfaces bend while maneuvering? Aaaah, I must have been blind. XD

I will set up the group buy next week. Just finished ordering the Alto/Ozma super parts, and now I am shipping crap load of stuff for another community. And deadline for armor parts won't be that early (Jan 30th). It will be more likely end of Feb, if not later.

Please let me finish ordering the super parts this week then I will do the Armored parts GB. Seems like people always join GB in the very last min (and shortly after the deadline). =p 　アーマードパーツ（オズマ・リー機カラー）×一式 　専用台座用ジョイントパーツ×一式 　反応弾×4 　腰部ロックジョイントパーツ×一式 Full Armor Parts x 1 set Special Stand x 1 Those big ass missle (rection/rective) x 4 Some kind of locking parts so the Valk don't flop x 1 set

Go bid on Y!J =p

let's say I went nuts and decided to get the sound booster for giggles, where is the cheapest place to buy one right now?

Which one of you picked up the normal version of VB-6 for $230 at Franks this past weekend? =P Right before I call them to jack up the price to $300. XD

If the Gundam series (MSG, Z, ZZ, CCA) are any indication, Japanese sequels based on characters/crews from original series are usually not very exciting.

No idea, supposedly Feb 2012. But it's not showing up as pre-orders anywhere online.

When I was little I lived in Taiwan, and back then because of the fallout of WW2, Japanese anime and toys cannot be imported though normal trade. Any Japanese anime that aired during the children hours on TV at 6pm were heavily censored/dubbed and monitored by the government for content. The local toy and video stores still had access to the material through back-channels, with the former being super expensive, and latter being all bootlegged subs. Plus I didn't have a VHS player at home. Sometime during the mid-80's, a toy distributor was able to get around the trade restriction, and offered a Takatoku Chogokin bundle during the Chinese New Year season (it's like our x-mas shopping season). They even bought air time to broadcast commercial on TV. The bundle included the VF-1J 1/55 (which I kept) and some green locomotive robot (which I didn't care for, and talked my brother into taking that), as well as an audio tape that basically narrated the prelude of the Macross series (with the locomotive thing shoe-horned into the story). The tape ended with the invasion of the Zentradi on launch day, and followed by 5 minutes of 'battle music' and sound effects of laser, jet swoosh and explosions. About the same time, in one of her rare 'generous' mood, my mom bought me a copy of This is Animation "Macross Vol 1", that was translated into T. Chinese (probably was bootlegged too) and sold at a stationary supply store (it's a hybrid of book/general store that focused on tailoring to elementary school students.) Little did she know, she just bought me a copy of porn (or what I thought was porn at the time). =p Both the manga adaptation section and the TV screen section of the magazine offering gratuitous amount of detail on Minmay's rear end during her shower scene. And I pretty much have that image forever etched in my mind. XD In 1985, the government in Taiwan finally approved SDF:Macross to be aired on TV, and that's pretty much when I watched a "relatively" intact version of SDF:macross for the first time. But of course the shower scene was skipped entirely. Shortly after, I moved to the US, around the LA area. Back then the only source of Japan anime was Pony-go-around. Then there was book nippon, US Rendition, Anime EXPO (east coast version), Anime Club UC chapters. Pretty much follow the same story as anyone who's in SoCal during those time.

There is a poster with Alto in a beat-up exo-suit, holding someone wearing a wedding dress. That's a promotional poster, kind of a teaser that does not reflect any scene in the movie. I've never seen a Chinese dress so form-fitting, looking like the ones depicted in the recent Macross materials.

Wow, I should visit this part of forum more often. I just saw the trailer on youtube, and promptly came here to see what I've been missing out. =p

It will end 3 days before the ordering deadline that will be posted by Bandai.

Yes, bootleg http://www.ebay.com/itm/DVD-Macross-Frontier-2in1-Movie-Sayonara-No-Tsubasa-False-Songstress-/280785597726?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item416020351e#ht_1258wt_1163

we have a group buy going in the buy & sell section of this forum.

maybe I am using the term "giant robot" wrong. Is there a name that describes the likes of Tetsujin 28-go, Mazinger Z, Combattler V.

What's with the booster love? I just can't make myself drop $120+ on something that belongs in a giant robot series.

reissue isn't due until end of Dec, at the earliest.

would you rather get paid big bucks working for SMS (see Ozma's pimped-out compact rice cooker ), or would you rather get by on a salary that can only get your GF one of your medal on her birthday? =P
