Gubaba Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 I'm counting 13 barrels on that thing. Who is the pilot? Left one or right one? Mio (the blonde on the right) is in the VF-9. Lana (dark-haired one on the left) is in the Koenig Orgel. Quote
BadTroll Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) Why is Isamu with Alto's dad? They knew one another? Edited December 5, 2009 by BadTroll Quote
sketchley Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) Are any of you MWers in Japan trying to go to this. (...) Sooo, anyone trying to be one of the 100? News seems a bit out of date, as Macross the First was released a couple of weeks ago. Neverthless, not going. As living in Japan rarely means living near Akiba. Even if it was in Den-den Town I probably still wouldn't go. Edited December 5, 2009 by sketchley Quote
veffidas Posted December 5, 2009 Posted December 5, 2009 I believe that's referring to the Mikimoto signing sessions on 12/5 (which has currently already passed) and 12/12 for the release of Macross: The First and re-release of Macross 7 Trash. 2009年12月5日(土) 16:00START 有隣堂ヨドバシAKIBA店 TEL 03-5298-7474 〒101-0028 東京都千代田区神田花岡町1-1 ヨドバシAKIBA7F 有隣堂ヨドバシAKIBA店 2009年12月12日(土) 15:00START 紀伊国屋書店福岡本店 ６Ｆイベントスペース TEL 092-434-3100 〒812-0012 福岡市博多区博多駅中央街2-1 福岡交通センタービル6F It also sounds like he's only signing the (inside) covers of the three currently released books (Macross: The First Vol. 1 and Macross 7 Trash Vol. 1 & 2).

nexxstrait Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 Finally got my hands on Macross the First Vol.1. There are indeed many subtle changes to many pages compared to Ace episodes (some are completely nw, some are reworked, others retouched). Quote
Zinjo Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 The VF-9 looks pretty nice. Fugliest battroid Kawamori ever designed, even worse than the VF-4 and that's saying something... Quote
VF5SS Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Fugliest battroid Kawamori ever designed, even worse than the VF-4 and that's saying something... why even comment if you don't like it jerk Quote
sketchley Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 why even comment if you don't like it jerk I second that. Why not say something positive, like "I prefer the VF-() over the VF-9"? Quote
Roy Focker Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 I must be a Jerk too. Like that's a surprize. Quote
nanoplasm Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 When is the next issue coming out? So I don't forget to pre-order it. Quote
sharky Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 I believe it comes out about ever 4 months. So, I think another issue is due around mid-month of March. Quote
veffidas Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Vol. 4 to be tentatively out March 26, 2010. Quote
Ganbare Posted March 6, 2010 Author Posted March 6, 2010 Vol. 4 to be tentatively out March 26, 2010. Preparing the fund for this one. Quote
Jasonc Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 Yeah, I'll be ordering these from Kinokuniya online. That way, I'll avoid the mishap of forgetting when they come out. Quote
sharky Posted March 7, 2010 Posted March 7, 2010 FYI Nippon Export doesn't seem to be offering Macross Ace anymore. The listing is still there, but you are not able to place an order for it. I'm not sure what is going on. The good news is HMV is offering vol. 4, and it's up for pre-order. The shipping is killer though, so you might want to add a few extra items to make it worth your while. Quote
arthas Posted March 7, 2010 Posted March 7, 2010 The shiping price is a disgrace in hmv.Someone knows if cdjapan has released the old volumes as well or will be releasing this one? Quote
sharky Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Well, it is express shipping, so you get it pretty quick. But damn it's expensive. That's why I liked Nippon Export. I could use SAL shipping with them. I just got an e-mail reply from Nippon Export explaining that they are sold out. Their exact words "I'm afraid it is sold out in Japan. No reprint is scheduled for it either." It doesn't really make sense to me because vol. 4 is not even out yet. I wonder if they mean vol. 3 is sold out, but they will allow orders when vol. 4 is released. The way they do their listing kind of sucks because they don't list individual volumes under seperate listings. It's more like ordering a subscription. I just can't figure out if they are simply not going to sell it anymore. Quote
vanpang Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 strange...I can't find Vol 4 in amazon.co.jp as well. Quote
Germán Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I'm always buy the Macross Ace in Nippon Export. I have the vol 2 and 3 from this magazine. Quote
arthas Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 I'm always buy the Macross Ace in Nippon Export. I have the vol 2 and 3 from this magazine. How much they charge u for the shipping? (the final charge, not the one in the cart) Quote
veffidas Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 There's probably no use in worrying about the lack of preorder options right. Macross Ace listings have always been slow to appear, usually only a few days before its actual release (even on Amazon.co.jp). Now that they've actually decided it will be a quarterly, maybe listings will appear earlier; however, so far, this is par for the course (worrying included). Quote
Vepariga Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 the only thing thats disappointing me with the new manga is the lack of one sheet Misa art..im sure its coming,but minmay has been hogging it. Quote
Zinjo Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 why even comment if you don't like it jerk I comment because I can and it doesn't contravene the rules. Oh my, being called a name over the internet, I think I'll cry.... I don't take the comments you make personally, I'd recommend you do the same... IMO, I do not like the VF-9 battroid, or the VF-4's. Their fighter modes on the other hand, are very purdy... Quote
Zinjo Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Vol. 4 to be tentatively out March 26, 2010. Damn! I better get a pre-order in on that puppy! Quote
Gubaba Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Oh, I forgot to mention...I was wrong about my reading of one of the comics' titles; it IS INDEED "Macross 7th Code," not "Chord." Quote
Beltane70 Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I'll be getting my copy when my friend comes back from Japan in the next couple of months. Quote

Btw, how do you get that cover image while in Kadokawa official website I couldn't find info about Macross ace vol. 004. I'm not accusing you do something wrong, just try fulfill my curiosity. Quote

The image of the cover is from HMV.co.jp and the publisher's page on the book is here: http://www.kadokawa.co.jp/mag/bk_detail.php?pcd=201001000519 . Quote
Jasonc Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 Just reserved two copies from Kinokuniya Los Angeles. I'm good to go. Quote

veffidas Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 High resolution covers of Macross The First Vol. 1 and Macross Ace Vol. 4. Quote
Gubaba Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 Oooh...a Macross Plus comic is starting up? Cool! Quote
sharky Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 I checked back with Nippon Export and they have modifed the listing so that vol. 004 is clearly listed as the item that is up for pre-order. http://www.nippon-export.com/catalog/produ...oducts_id=28878 So, I cancled my order from HMV. I'm glad I am saving myself the EMS shipping cost. Quote
Macross1982 Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 I have some Macross Ace Magazines for sale in the for sale section of the forums, I will have copies of Macross Ace Volume 4 by March 30th if not the same 26th. Prices are here: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=32699 Quote
