Morpheus Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Konig Monster is huge, some people even mistaken it as A Zanzibar class ship
d3v Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 (edited) Konig Monster is huge, some people even mistaken it as A Zanzibar class ship That image seems slightly out of scale. The VB-6 has a wingspan of 24.42m while the VF-25 has a wingspan of 15.5m whereas it looks like the VB-6 is larger than that (with twice the wingspan of the VF-25) in the pic.

darkrealmbahamut Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 They want everyone to believe they have a monoply, all they actually own are half the international dist rights to the original series and the trademark to the "Macross" name in North America and possibly South America. However, your point about the BD releases being able to sidestep any infringement C&D orders is absolutely correct. That is the main reason why I've pre-ordered the first disc on BD. I am hopeful they do have English subs at least for the release. I suspect hoping for a dub is pie in the sky thinking at this point... I figured just because it gets past their trade mark on the word Macross really. I but you said and so have I same region and it seems to be how BDs are being pushed. I think even the Yukikaze has an english track from Japan. On another note those screens are absolutely breath taking.
Heron Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 You must have money like it grows on trees Not all of us do. No I just save back 10.00 a week...so in a few months I have enough. Or if I do not feel like saving an extended period of time, I do weekend jobs.
Graham Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Here's the DVD and BluRay advert that appears on the back of last month's Newtype. I don't think anyone has shown this yet. Nice picture IMO. Graham
Graham Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Can't remember if anybody posted clear scans of the mecha section from last month's Newtype yet. Here are some scans I just did on the office scanner. Unfortunately, the scanner is just not quite biog enough to scan both pages together without cropping one edge. One of the scans is missing the right edge and the other the left edge. Later, I'll remove the pages from the magazine, to do a completely flat scan. Graham
Gubaba Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Nice picture IMO. Graham Damn, that IS nice! Alto's Valk looks so shiny and new that it makes me all the more annoyed that he keeps getting it blown up...
Graham Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Not really news, but a Frontier related story. While I was shaving this morning, my 4 year old son got hold of my cell phone and managed to activate the built-in MP3 player. I currently have the Macross Frontier OST-1 on my play list and it started playing the opening song from the anime. My son came running too me, holding the phone saying “Daddy, Daddy, it’s that airplane song” (he likes watching the VF-25 in the opening animation). I thought that was really cute. He than asked my if he could watch some Frontier, so I put episode 7 on the TV for him (lots of action). Graham
UN Spacy Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks for the scans Graham! Do you plan on showing him anymore episodes?
Graham Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 He's watched most of the episodes that have action in them already, that's how he remembered the opoening song. Graham
Gubaba Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 He's watched most of the episodes that have action in them already, that's how he remembered the opoening song. Graham So what did he think of Gilliam getting squeezed like a tube of toothpaste...?
Zinjo Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Sweet! I love that poster, came damn close to getting one from Yahoo Japan too! Thanks for the scans dude, can't wait to see the scans of the separated pages...
Mr March Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks for the scans Graham. They're a little dark, but I should be able to use most of the images. The VF-25 Battroid and the Macross Quarter Attack mode pictures are very nice!
darkrealmbahamut Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks for the scans Graham. The fact that Brera wears heels makes him even more badass because of that fight with the Hydra in ep 10.
Kronnang Dunn Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 So what did he think of Gilliam getting squeezed like a tube of toothpaste...? Man, I hope it didn't scare him...
s001 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Thanks for the scans Graham. The fact that Brera wears heels makes him even more badass because of that fight with the Hydra in ep 10. Maybe, but his suit looks totally gay! (quoting Seinfield) "It's not like that's a bad thing"
mike_s_6 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Maybe, but his suit looks totally gay! (quoting Seinfield) "It's not like that's a bad thing" I mean just look at his character profile in the Macross F website. Those pants are too low I tell you.
mike_s_6 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Also, please check out the Macross F Website Movies page, there is a trailer to the All That VF, and a new episode of Fufonfia.
Nexx Stalker Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 OMG that was VF porn! What a tease! I'm not able to play the movie, grr.... Any chance someone could upload it somewhere?
thegunny Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Here's the latest MacF pages from Figure Oh #124. Not much new stuff by the look.
Zinjo Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Here's the latest MacF pages from Figure Oh #124. Not much new stuff by the look. It's interesting that the Tomahawk II looks so very much like a resurrected Cheyenne...
Zinjo Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 (edited) the article actually calls it cheyenne II... Thanks Clyde, nice to have a native speaker correcting us, when we go sideways... Though from what we can see, it looks almost identical to the original... Edited June 17, 2008 by Zinjo

paper2k1 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 (edited) A few interesting screenshots from Macross Frontier episodes 11 "Missing Birthday" (well...actually.... these screenshots from [WEB RADIO] Macross F ○※△) http://pds9.egloos.com/pds/200806/18/50/c0...57d97771400.jpg Super Dimensional Chinese Restaurant Nyan Nyan TV Commercial featuring Ranka http://pds7.egloos.com/pds/200806/18/50/c0...57da0b13688.jpg VF-25 w/ super pack & fold booster Edited June 17, 2008 by paper2k1

That VF-25 looks like it's escourting the Galaxy Starliner...
Tsuchiro Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Are you sure that's ep 11? That VF-25 looks like it's escourting the Galaxy Starliner... Probably Alto escorting Sheryl to Galia 4
Zinjo Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Probably Alto escorting Sheryl to Galia 4 OK, we're all used to the rediculous entourage of stars chartering a plane to go for bread, but c'mon, a whole Starliner for one person???
Master Dex Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 OK, we're all used to the rediculous entourage of stars chartering a plane to go for bread, but c'mon, a whole Starliner for one person??? One of the upcoming episode summeries does state that Sheryl in going to Galia IV for a concert (however she will fall ill before that happens) so it wouldn't surprise me to have one of SMS escort here, and Alto being her slave and all makes the perfect candidate.
