GGemini Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Wow So... the model kits for Macross F are 1:72.... I hope the prototypes of the toys were somewhere else
charger69 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) WOW!! Thanks kresphy Edited February 24, 2008 by charger69
Roy Focker Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Wait 50cm is that Minmay doll around 19 inches high?
Graham Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Are those model kits or toys? What does the sign say anybody? Graham

It does seem that the show is relegated to the after midnight broadcast though. Which means only Macross fans and hardcore anime otakus will be exposed to it.
kensei Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Friday is good. The fansubbers will have time off on the weekend to get together a good sub.
MacrossCN Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Friday is good. The fansubbers will have time off on the weekend to get together a good sub. NOOOOO Gundam OO, Sat, 18:00 Macross F, Fri, 1:55 which is better???
GGemini Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Are those model kits or toys? What does the sign say anybody? Graham Graham, In the Mac F pic it says: "1:72 scale, puramoderu" then something else... so it looks like those are the plastic models (the fighter version is even using the Bandai stand)
Graham Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Model kits . Damn, I was hooping for some toy news. I bet Bandai is gonna screw us and not do any toys. Sigh, I so wish Yamato had the licence. Graham
kensei Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 NOOOOO Gundam OO, Sat, 18:00 Macross F, Fri, 1:55 which is better??? Macross F Fri 1:55, because its the time i get home from night clubbing. 6 pm? I'm at a banquet.
electric indigo Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 In the Mac F pic it says: "1:72 scale, puramoderu" then something else... so it looks like those are the plastic models EXCELLENT!
azrael Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 Macross F, Fri, 1:55 Ouch. That hurts. A Saturday 5-7PM timeslot would have been better for new viewers, but I'll understand since TBS/MBS has been slowly losing viewers during that timeslot. That sucks though. Although, that means when I get to work on Fridays, it would have aired. hmmmm...
Zinjo Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Graham, In the Mac F pic it says: "1:72 scale, puramoderu" then something else... so it looks like those are the plastic models (the fighter version is even using the Bandai stand) Yeah, I noticed the stand too. I am hoping Bandai takes a few ques from Hasegawa and separates the fighter and battroid modes into separate high quality kits and doesn't do it's typical crappy "transforming" kits that are always poor quality and never sell well. High quality fighter and battroid kits have been a Hasegawa "bread and butter" Macross line for years. All they do is either retool existing molds and/or do special editions of already existing kits and Bam a few hundred thousand new kits are sold... Though I am expecting we may see 1/100 scale toys from the factory that produces the HCM gundam toys to compete with the Revoltech lines...
UN Spacy Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Ummmmmmmm. You guys DO know Bandai is making 1/60 VF-25's for their Chogokin DX lineup. It's being discussed in the toy forum right now.
deadghost Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) OMG...OMG...OMG...They got SMS shirts AND PROTOS FOR THE KITS, Its MACGASMIC. Edited February 24, 2008 by deadghost
John Focker Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 NOOOOO Gundam OO, Sat, 18:00 Macross F, Fri, 1:55 which is better??? No worries, Gundam 00 will be off the air after Ep.25 to yield to Code Geass' second half. By the time Gundam 00's second half airs in October, Macross F would've finished airing.
Beltane70 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Actually, I like this Friday night time slot. I'll be able to watch the first episode on TV and not have to worry if I'm going to be out and about. This coming Japan trip is going to be very, very awesome!
GGemini Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Ummmmmmmm. You guys DO know Bandai is making 1/60 VF-25's for their Chogokin DX lineup. It's being discussed in the toy forum right now. thx for the heads up! so, the second fighter that's NOT in the Bandai stand IS the DX prototype!
Graham Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 It showing on Friday is bad because? It does seem that the show is relegated to the after midnight broadcast though. Which means only Macross fans and hardcore anime otakus will be exposed to it. IThat's terrible, the ultra-crappy Gundam 00 gets the prime time slot and Macross Froontier gets the graveyard shift . Hope it doesn't affect popularity in Japan too much. Graham
CF18 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 OTOH midnight slot means less censorship over blood and nudity.
deadghost Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 OTOH midnight slot means less censorship over blood and nudity. Thank you god
azrael Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 No worries, Gundam 00 will be off the air after Ep.25 to yield to Code Geass' second half. No. Code Geass' 2nd season is moving to Sundays 5PM. It would have been better for MF being on Saturday. This whole Code Geass thing was noted in earlier because people where expecting MF to air right after Code Geass. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...-saturday-6-p.m
Beltane70 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Actually, Graham, Gundam 00 won't be affecting Macross Frontier's popularity because 00 ends before Frontier begins.
wolfx Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Actually, Graham, Gundam 00 won't be affecting Macross Frontier's popularity because 00 ends before Frontier begins. The 1s season of it anyway. http://randomc.animeblogger.net/2008/02/24...cross-airdates/ In anime news, according to an announcement at Wonder Festival 2008 [Winter] today, Macross F's airdate has been set: it's going to be taking over Shakugan no Shana II's Thursday 25:25 timeslot on MBS starting April 3rd, 2008. So that means Macross is going to be on Thursdays and GEASS will be on Sundays, though those are only two of the 35+ series premiering in the Spring. And sadly on a 5pm timeslot code geass may not have fanservice no more.
Gui Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 No problem: we'll download the specials anyway...
MacrossCN Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 (edited) Macross F Official BLOG is opened!!!!!!!! http://www.macrossf.com/blog/ and VF-25 pic Edited February 25, 2008 by kresphy
Black Valkyrie Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Thanks for the pic Kresphy, lets hope this kit is a HG.
Aero of Steel Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 It's great that the official site has been updated, although I'd like to see more in the way or hard stats for the mecha, especially exact weapon loadouts and engine thrust. Seems there's no mention of pinpoint barriers, wonder if they have them? Some more VF-171 pics would have been nice as well. Thought I'd snag the pics from the official site and post them here. Graham Ozma Armoured VF-25 has been updated on the site. http://www.macrossf.com/image/mechanic/img_mecha03.jpg
Macross007 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Ozma Armoured VF-25 has been updated on the site. http://www.macrossf.com/image/mechanic/img_mecha03.jpg If that thing was a woman, it will be without a doubt the most beautiful woman in the galaxy with a nice *** and big ****.
John Focker Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 No. Code Geass' 2nd season is moving to Sundays 5PM. It would have been better for MF being on Saturday. This whole Code Geass thing was noted in earlier because people where expecting MF to air right after Code Geass. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...-saturday-6-p.m Actually, the entire "土六 do roku" (Sat 6PM) slot is moved, not just Code Geass 2nd. When Gundam 00 2nd airs in October, it'll pick up right after CG2 on the Sunday slot. The original "do roku" slot, will be delegated to news program 報道特集.
Beltane70 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 It's not a kit, Black Valkyrie. It's a rough mock-up of a Soul of Chogokin toy.
