VFTF1 Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 A Day in the Life of Macross World By VFTF1 Act I The Setting: The Internet(s), Macrossworld.com. The mythical uber-thread - a twilight zone world where various topics and themes from various threads mingle and mix, creating a quixotic brew emulating the components that make Macross World what it is... ------------- Graham: Hey guys! Just got Yamato's new VF-1A Kakizake "Stake Dinner" version pre-production sample in! As you know, this is the highly anticipated TV Kakizake that also comes with a free coupon to Japan's Nagato Steak House. Practically useless for everybody living outside of Japan, but if you can get one of these for under the 600 USD price tag they are fetching on Ebay, it is worth it. Anyways - the toy itself is awesome, except for the left arm, which seems to seperate in four places before finally coming apart and the head, which turned to dust as soon as I touched it. MW Chorus: Oh yes baby! I can't wait till my preorder for this bird gets filled! I just found one on ebay for only 500 bucks! What a steal! Awesome! Anybody live in Japan who can send me some of Nagato Steak Houses' steak? Shin Denstetsu Kai: You guys are all brain dead. Bandai would do a much better job on these. I can't believe you shell out 500 bucks for something that breaks straight out of the box and think it's good. VFTF1: Well, I don't know what everybody's complaining about. I got 6 VF-1A Steak Dinner Kakis and only 5 of them had the problems that Graham talked about. The sixth one is 100% a-ok perfect. Definitely worth the money. Whamhammer: Personally, I think that this scene was handled better in Robotech. I get the feeling that Knuck Gipper's (aka Kaky Zaky) death there had more meaning, especially given the backstory from the novels. Redwolf: Well to be fair, the Ohgnogi Macross novels that I've read bout dealing with Kakizaki also give him a fairly detailed back story. Gubaba: Excuse me, but do you have evidence of the existence of these novels? RuskieVFaussie: Wooo! Hey guys! I just got my Bandai DX VF-25W (Whallie World Repaint Version) - WOOT! Thing is awesome! Sketchy: Any big differences from the previous 46 VF-25s that Bandai has put into their DX line? RuskieVFaussie: You bet! There is a picture of Wallie's head Tampoo printed on the fighter - I'm not sure where though, because I haven't found Wallie yet... Shin Densetsu Kai: I think Bandai have stated that the Wallie tampoo is not actually printed on every piece produced, but it's more like every fifth fighter. If your fighter has Wallie on it, you get a free Naked Little Girls Macross Frontier Gashapom from the new Naked Little Girls Macross Frontier line. RuskieVFaussie: Who comes up with these names!? Gubaba: Actually, the correct translation is not "naked" little girls but the Kanji treat "naked" symbolically - as in "the soul is naked before us" - so these are supposed to be very emotive representations of the individuals - they're going to be kind of like the "unleashed" line in the US for some hero figures. As for "little" girls - it just means that they are little gashapom toys. Cannon Fodder Chorus: OH MY GODS! THOSE JAPANESE PEOPLE ARE SICK! What's with this whole naked little girls thing!! MW Chorus: But Gubaba just explained that the translation is actually... Cannon Fodder Chorus: THIS IS MORALLLY VILE TRASH! AgentOne: At least it's not Macross 7 Trash. Duke Dogo: I second that. Macross7Hater: Bassara is so gay! Macross7Hater1: Yeah, and it's so stupid - this idea that music can defeat the enemies!? What does that have to do with Macross?! Keith: Why is Basara considered gay? Bassara is very manly. He just shoots sound rather than missiles, and music is instrumental to the theme of Macross. VFTF1: Basara rules! Macross7Hater3: But think about it - couldn't Kawamori have instead shown us what happened to Rick Hunter and Lisa Hayes? MisaForever: Hey guys! I've come up with a new poll question - why don't we discuss something that doesn't get much attention around here: who is the best Macross babe? MacrossChorus: Ranka! Sheryl! Minmey! Sarah! What about Ishitar? Was she from Sentinels? No dummy! Macross II! You mean a sequel to Robotech? Why does nobody remember Wendy Rider? MisaForever: Hey guys! I've come up with another poll question - which Macross babe do you love the most? MacrossChorus: Ranka! Sheryl! Minmey! Sarah! What about Ishitar? Was she from Sentinels? No dummy! Macross II! You mean a sequel to Robotech? Why does nobody remember Wendy Rider? MisaForever: Hey guys! I've come up with another poll question - which Macross babe is the most talented? MacrossChorus: Ranka! Sheryl! Minmey! Sarah! What about Ishitar? Was she from Sentinels? No Dummy! Macross II! You mean a sequel to Robotech? Why does nobody remember Wendy Rider? VFTF1: Hey everybody! I just watched Neon Genesis Evangelion! Wow! Who knew that anime series like this were around? Not me!

I think I'll display this one in battroid mode with the head turned slightly to the right. My 18th YF-19 is displayed in Battroid mode with the head turned slightly to the left. I talked to Yamato about perhaps giving these more poseability for collectors who might want to create displays with 20 YF-19s in battroid mode. They can't all look the same - so the goal is to be able to pose them in as many distinct ways as possible. Vegas: Cool! Here's my master photography showing my Valk collection. Where you see the VF-1A cannon fodder squadron - that room used to belong to my kids before I kicked them out to make room for my collection. And here we have a couple of pictures of my Destroids. The closet used to belong to my wife, but I threw all her clothes away to make room for Macross stuff. MacrossChorus: Awesome pics! Vegas you're the best! You're the master! MEMO132432: HEY YOUS STUPID MACROSSPURISTS LMFOA LOL LOL LOL! LAM COMING VERY SOON NOW YOU GET ALL STUPID KICKED HG MAKE ROBOTECH WOLRD IS FAMUS. Exo: Ok - that is off topic. Please get back on topic or I'm going to lock this thread. Roy Fokker: Dude. I hate this job. Why are you taking time out of my day making me reprimand you? * * * End Act I Will there be an Act II? In a sense - there already is, fo so long as Macrossworld spins like a planet, spinning in the solar system that is the internet, so too spins this amazing tale of humor and fan dedication... Pete
EXO Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 Wow, I'd like to think I offer more to MW than just locking threads... on that note...
