Beware of Blast Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) Well, choice one is you can't get over the fact that Yamato has gotten crappier with each current released, so having gotten "yamatoed" before, you're either extremely careful, making damn sure you're ONLY buying the 50th version of the same previously released VF (that they had screwed up either hugely or the they had minor hiccups - again and again). Or, choice 2, you are such a huge fan, perfect or not, yamatoed or not, you're still getting Yamato's future releases even though they have not learned a damn thing from their past mistakes - because they are the only guys on the block, they draw the most beautiful CAD, so with the CAD they get the world most beautiful sculpts, blah blah blah... - in other words, you're so deep in you're Yamatotionalized. Which is you? Edited July 3, 2007 by Beware of Blast
eugimon Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 this is essentially what EVERY yamato toy thread ends up becoming anyways.
Remember Love Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 hahaha... i like your term, "Yamatoed"... i hope some big company will take over Macross products from Yamato or Buy over Yamato... maybe if that happens, we can see perfect transformation, good QC and more die casts... This Babes deserves more than plastic....
Beware of Blast Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 BOB you have officially become a Troll. Thanks! I'm probably the only troll that cares if we're getting crap or not.
Wicked Ace Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) I'm at the brink of voting after seeing the busted YF-19 shoulder in this thread: YF-19 Shoulder I've read the word "troll" used in a previous post in this thread, but I will say I'm finding it easier to relate to those who are (hyper)critical of Yamato's Macross offerings.

One incident doesn't make for a QC issue.
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I thought someone else on the forum had a similar incident a while back... hmm... -=X Time to search the forums....
Wicked Ace Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 One incident doesn't make for a QC issue. True, but it doesn't look well considering the VF-0 problems. Also, look at how this thing broke -- not really easy to say "owner error" like in the case of a busted BP8 (IMO).
eugimon Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I'll refrain from thinking the sky is falling until more arm break reports start coming in.
Wicked Ace Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) I'll refrain from thinking the sky is falling until more arm break reports start coming in. The sky has been falling and the end has been coming for some time now; reports of toy breakages across the world are but one sign. Edited July 3, 2007 by Wicked Ace
eugimon Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 The sky has been falling and the end has been coming for some time now, toy breakages are but one sign. I thought the signs were dogs and cats living together and the dead rising from their graves?
Crazy Canuck II Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Alright I'll bite and who knows, if we can manage a civil conversation perhaps we can finally put this whole topic behind us. I am most definitely choice 2. I've bought the first release of several Yamato offerings and will probably do so again. Honestly the minor QC issues aren't that big deal to me. Macross is not my life, so if my purchase is less than perfect I don't sweat it and definitely don't let it detract from the overall enjoyment. Sure it would be nice to not worry about getting the short end of the yamato QC stick, but then again it's only a toy for goodness sake.
Wicked Ace Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Macross is not my life, it's only a toy for goodness sake. You should be immediately banned for these statements.
Crazy Canuck II Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 You should be immediately banned for these statements. Why do you think I had to re-register as Crazy Canuck II?
jet660 Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 If we start using the word yamato more frequently, I guess I can develop a yamato concise dictionary. hahaha! 1) Yamatoed 2) Yamatotionalized Feel free to add more terms with the meaning attached to it. If we get enough terms, then maybe we can send it to Yamato HQ. hahaha!
Beware of Blast Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 Send it to Yamato HQ if you like. I'm not gonna do anything that will benefit them. Speaking of dictionary, go to urbandictionary.com to read all about Yamato's concise exploits. All the Yamato related definations in my sig are explained in length there. Oh, don't go there expecting to read quality writing - you can't give quality if you don't get some .
odr78 Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 (edited) I'm afraid of my vote....... God of Valkyries... please save me of my condition of Yamatotionalized..... Edited July 3, 2007 by odr78
drifand Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I refrained from buying a single 1/48 yet gave in to the beautifully CADified VF-0S, only to get bitten with a broken arm. So Yamatoed it is.
Mowe Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I've been yamato'ed but one look at SV-51 and it is hard not to be yamatotionalized. Surely, it is Yamicidal to buy more VF-0 now, knowing the shoulder problems have yet been fixed but but there is always hope with Version X issue. When enough people confirm new Yammies are trouble free, I am happy to bag them home again.
Busted VF1A Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I refuse to vote. this kind of conversation has been played out in every Yamato thread on the board. Can't we find a new debate?
recon Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Got yamatoed, so much so i would like to make tomato paste of those idiots
Hurin Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Where's the choice for: "I've never really had a problem with my Yamato toys and I think some people on this forum are a bit over-emotional and may need to seek counseling regarding their sense of betrayal by a toy company."
