Graham Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Just got this magazine from amazon jp. It's really small, only 6" x 8". Mostly text with some small colour pics. No new line art. Not worth it IMO if you can't read Japanese. Graham
darkrealmbahamut Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 And I can't believe I'm giving some lucky Macrossworlder such an obvious set-up, but here goes... *deep breath* "If Michael is Zolan, then where's his one-eyed snake?" There. It's all teed up for you. Now hit a homer. I was thinking the same if he is Zolan aren't they symbiotic with their snakes... wow that sounds really bad...
Kronnang Dunn Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 (edited) For some strange reason, the official Macross Frontier site has the title of episode 13 as "Twilight Planet", while the preview at the end of episode 12 called it "Memory of Global"... Which is the right one? Edited June 27, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn

Which is the right one? Well considering in the episode 12 preview scene it shows the Macross while saying Memory of Global I'm inclined to think it's that Edited June 27, 2008 by Westlo

Gubaba Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 For some strange reason, the official Macross Frontier site has the title of episode 13 as "Twilight Planet", while the preview at the end of episode 12 called it "Memory of Global"... Which is the right one? I get the feeling that "Twilight Planet" was a fake name they threw out just to keep the ending of ep. 12 a surprise...

mike_s_6 Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 I get the feeling that "Twilight Planet" was a fake name they threw out just to keep the ending of ep. 12 a surprise... I think "Memory of Global" is something else, perhaps like a catch phrase? The official Macross F site has updated their episodes list, and episode 13 is named "Twilight Planet". http://macrossf.com/story/story_list.html

d3v Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 I know this really does belong in the toys thread but (seeing as I am a lazy bastard) does "super alloy" mean that bits of these toys are die-cast?
Master Dex Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 These toys do have die-cast in them but I don't know if that is what super alloy means necessarily.
azrael Posted June 28, 2008 Author Posted June 28, 2008 These toys do have die-cast in them but I don't know if that is what super alloy means necessarily. It refers to the collector's toy line. Our usage of "Chogokin" is usually short for "Soul of Chogokin" (SOC). It may or may not have die-cast.
Master Dex Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Oh, I thought I saw somewhere that these toys did have some die-cast in them though. I've been monitoring this figs with others in the toys forum for a while, but maybe I just can't remember.

darkrealmbahamut Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 But why would they title it at the end Memory of Global at the end.... I demand someone make me a time machine I must get to next thursday!

Shun Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 http://macrossf.fc.yahoo.co.jp/index.php?itemid=26 thanks for news... but sigh... no fast or armored packs... and yes, chogokin is bandai's line of toys with metal content but it might be very minimal esp for transforming toys...

darkrealmbahamut Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 now if only there was a macronized one coming down the pipe.
wolfx Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 These toys do have die-cast in them but I don't know if that is what super alloy means necessarily. Chogokin = Cho-Goukin = Super Alloy/Metal As Azrael has said, its a bandai toyline that usually has substantial die-cast in the toys.

Graham Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I told you people will be shooting it down for weeks. More like months or years. I could cheerfully strangle the person who thought up that hoax. Graham
