Kanedas Bike Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Hot Damn!! Now I remember how much I hated math when I was in school. At any rate great job mcpaz - the next time I have to crunch some numbers I'll remember who to PM. -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpaz Posted September 20, 2003 Author Share Posted September 20, 2003 Thanks everyone! ...hate only leads you to the dark side Yes, master... can you post a photo of your damn-big collection, pleeeeeaaaseeee ? (BTW, I must be already at the dark side; I still hate you... ) Just one question (for curiosity, of course): how long have you been collecting yamatos? Your 1/72 numbers make me think that you might be a 'happy'... ahem... "damn tab B" owner, aren't you? So you might be, as Graham and Shawn, one of the 'pre-diluvian' masters of the sith, I guess... If so, I'm presenting you my respects... (I still have hate running through my veins... ) Mcpaz (yeah, I should say frustrated mcpaz.... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAN Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 crap! 4 of each? Do you collect anything else besides macross? And do you have pics? never seen such a huge collection in my life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hevangel2 Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 Hi Sith, Just wondering, what do you do with your 4x valks? Are you displaying them or just leave them in the boxes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigkid24 Posted October 2, 2003 Share Posted October 2, 2003 I should have known s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d would have been the front runner with his three mode displays. Everytime he posts his collection I'm amazed. Anyway, this post has been pretty damn interesting. So if MW accounts for a high enough percentage of Yamato's sales, I say they should finally give us an exclusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GobotFool Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 (edited) I havn't seen a picture of sithlords collection, I wanna see a picture!

Skull Leader Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I know this is old, but I think it's time for a new tally, since several more yamatos have been bought since the last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soze Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 (edited) Hmmm, I don't think I ever contributed to that thread... Ones I have kept for myself: 4 1/72's 11 1/60's 9 1/48's 8 1/48 FP's At one time I had much much more... but they have since been re-allocated to other fellow MW'ers.

nhyone Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 (edited) This result should be pretty skewed. Most people who own less than 4 VFs may not have responded. I own 4 VFs (in 2 scales) and almost couldn't bother to respond. People who own more than that, on the other hand, will be inclined to respond.

Draykov Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 (edited) yamato has sold more 1/60's than 1/48 and 1/72 togheter... Since the release of the 1/48, I've sold off 8 of my 1/60s...ones I'd never have bought in the first place if I knew what was to come.

Aegis! Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) Man , Shawn oughts to pin this thread. The results are amazing , I mean s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d must be on ther drug trade or some crap like that , considering he´s spending that much just in toys imagine how much does he spend on cars , lager and women Also , considering that only a mere 234 number of users voted in said thread and from just that number MW has collaborated already with 2693 toys sold to date , that crap about ¨Yamato has no obligation to care about MW members cause we don´t mean nothing to them cause we don´t contribute to their net sales ¨ is just utter BS IMO. Think of all those who didn´t get to vote and have 2 or more Yamatos at home. That has to count for something. I´m still impressed by these numbers , some people need help with their shopping habits. Though , if I had to choose between having a good life (nice family, great house , cool car , social life...) and a massive Macross toy collection , I would have to think really hard about it...like for...10 secs Edited April 15, 2004 by Aegis!

Mr March Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 That's some crazy statistics. Though I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. I'm probably one of the self proclaimed non-collectors on these boards, yet I own three 1/48 Yammies...and did own a 1/60 until I sold it last year.

vanpang Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hey guys, I think Yamato should award some of us with Yamato Loyalty Card or something similar as a sign of appreciation. Something like for every 4 1/48 scale valks you buy, you get a low-vis Valk free !!! But seriously, I think Yamato should appreciate Shawn and Graham more since MW is one platform where we Macross fans can give feedbacks and suggestions to their products and indirectly Yamato's coffers Just look at the volume we are buying !!!
