recon Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) Hi guys, Came across this minmay figurine while browsing amiami, must say it looks quite nice. Seems to be done by a new company in the market. Scheduled release date is in November 08 at a SRP of 4725 yen. Anyways without further ado, here are the pictures: Link: http://www.amiami.com/shop?vgForm=ProductI...ate=review.html Edited August 30, 2008 by recon Quote
miriya Posted August 30, 2008 Posted August 30, 2008 Thats the new CMS figure. Hope the do some other macross figures too. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Hmmm, not as good as I was expecting... I'll have to see more pictures. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) She is perfect! Will look great next to my DYRL? 1/5000 Macross. Hope Global isn't too far away. Better Hikaru, Roy, Max figures would be choice too! Edited August 31, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
BoBe-Patt Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 4725 yen for that figure? then this must be a bigger figure, not the same size as the other CMS figure sets. Hmmm.... this I may want then.... Quote
EXO Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Today at Wonder Fest CM's showed a new DYRL Minmay Attack Figure. Since I had a dealer pass I had to respect the no photo sign. I even asked and they said no. Figure is not the same scale of the Macross Collections looks about an inch or so taller. That's pretty much all I could find out. I'm sure a pick will leak soon. 4725 yen for that figure? then this must be a bigger figure, not the same size as the other CMS figure sets. Hmmm.... this I may want then.... Quote

ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 It'd have to be nicely sized for that much. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 We could be in for a treat atleast, with them doing Misa and the rest of the gang. Quote
daflip702 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Holy crap!!!! Dunno bout you guys but, this Minmay looks scary......*hint*hint Grudge anyone? Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 haha yeah, better in the flesh though, and anime accurate, she was glittering in the eyes then as well. Quote
VFTF1 Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 I'm torn. The CMs is a really nice Minmay figure. But it doesn't move. I really want my figures to be poseable - ok - actually - I want my figures to be Revoltechs... But the figure is beautiful... one of the better Minmey Ninios I've seen thus far in my short time in this universe... Pete Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) Bet you won't be playing that tune if they bring out a fixed posed Misa fig. Edited September 25, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Bet you won't be playing that tune if they bring out a fixed posed Misa fig. tongue.gif If they do that, I'm afraid I'll have to buy at least four to display from each angle... Pete Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) One will be enough for me, although a second to modify would be nice... Maybe she'll get underclothes for the ripping of uniform off. THERE IS SERIOUSLY A LACK OF "MISA" FAN SERVICE FIGS AROUND. Just coz her face is hard to sculpt isn't a good excuse. Edited October 2, 2008 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote
baronv Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Any idea when the next round of CMS figures will be made? Any chance of the Shin or Focker from M Zero appearing or the characters from Frontier this time? if not, would like the Hikaru and Roy in their t.v. version non-pilot uniforms. Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 THERE IS SERIOUSLY A LACK OF "MISA" FAN SERVICE FIGS AROUND. Just coz her face is hard to sculpt isn't a good excuse. This is true. I am still holding out for Kaiyodo to do the figures; particularly since the Fraulein line is thankfully not "graaAAH!! action!" oriented but rather more demure and fine. Misa should make it into the line. Is there a licensing issue preventing this?... Pete Quote
adrianop Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Lack of Misa figures is frustrating indeed. Cant even find the Arii one anymore. Quote
Zinjo Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Lack of Misa figures is frustrating indeed. Cant even find the Arii one anymore. Well considering the success of MF and the fact that Bandai is doing their own figures for the series, I'd expect CMS to be planning more figures. I hope they go the way of other toy manufacturers and start doing things like the sailor outfit Minmay, the Valkgirl outfit Minmay, Mac II and Mac Zero characters. What I really want to see is a series of 1/6 scale pilot helmets from all the series' and more cockpits! Though I suspect any new series will have the iconic Minmay in it somewhere... Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 So..umm....do we know anything about the size of this Minmey figure? I must admit she looks good, but the price is high for a non-poseable fixed frame figure... Pete Quote
Zinjo Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 So..umm....do we know anything about the size of this Minmey figure? I must admit she looks good, but the price is high for a non-poseable fixed frame figure... Pete Actually for a static painted figure it's not really that outrageous... Quote
Sumdumgai Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Actually for a figure like that the price isn't bad at all. HLJ has her at 4500yen. Megahouse figures go in the 4000-7000yen price range. Alter figures go in the 5000-9000yen range. And Good Smile Company has figures in the 4000-6000yen price range. Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 I guess I'm just said that I can't move her. Static figures never held much attraction for me... But maybe I could build a Minmey shrine or something... it's just she'd be hard to play with what with her not moving at all... Pete Quote
adrianop Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Its perfect for display buffs like me, not to mention that static figures always have great legs. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 Yep! Minmay will look great next to the SDF-1 1/5000, hope CM delivers with Misa! Then pilot figs like Hikaru and Roy, that would be icing on the cake. Quote

David Hingtgen Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Nah, I need Milia. Milia purple suit, Milia red suit, M7 Milia red suit... Quote
miriya Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Nah, I need Milia. Milia purple suit, Milia red suit, M7 Milia red suit... Amen! But I also want Misa in flightsuit too. And all the Macross ladies in flightsuits. Oh yeah! Edited October 30, 2008 by miriya Quote
adrianop Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I wont be picky as long as its Misa. Checked out CM's corp website no update for other Macross figures aside from Minmay. Quote
VFTF1 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Well, I bit the bullet. Gonna get Minmey. Sick and tired of waiting all my life for a nice figure - and the CMS is a nice figure. It's pretty well near perfect. Much better than the crudzola that we got from that other company a while back - I don't know if anybody remembers but there was a whacked Minmey ninio made by somebody else. As for Misa - I want Misa in cute outfits - examples: 1) Misa in cute outfit that she was wearing when Hikaru accidentaly grabbed her butt 2) Misa in cute outfit with Apron when she was doing the dishes and cleaning up 3) Misa in cute outfit when she met Hikaru jogging in Macross city one day Misa has MUCH cuter outfits than Minmey and when she dresses like a woman rather than a soldier, it is blatantly obvious that she is not only better character wise, but also way way hotter So - there really is no point in putting Misa in a flight suite - unless somebody is in to that kind of thing Pete Quote
adrianop Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Same, preordered mine awhile back. Would have been better if this was 1/6 scale though, personally. Quote
Zinjo Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Is anyone aware that CMS is re-releasing their Macross Set 1 figure collection in January? http://www.1999.co.jp/item_cart_e.asp?piec...&Typ1_c=101 Quote
Javier Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 To obtain Hikaru, Minmay, Ishtar, Mao and Mylene in the box? Or is it possible that not? Quote
