myk Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Even if they don't revisit Macross, DYRL is good enough for me... Quote
Dynaman Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 Kyp is worried sick that they will not get around to redoing Macross, poor fella... Quote

myk Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 WOW. That scene's about as exciting as the hangar scene in Star Wars Episode 4 and the PSX/Saturn opening scene of DYRL... Quote
Tochiro Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 WOW. That scene's about as exciting as the hangar scene in Star Wars Episode 4 and the PSX/Saturn opening scene of DYRL... You should see the battle that follows ;-) Quote
westfall Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 You should see the battle that follows ;-) Soon, youn padawan...soon Though it won't be soon enough!!! XDDD Quote

TehPW Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 there is no acceptable Meme for what i want to droll for (maybe on Dangorra or what ever it's called). and there is no plans to port the film/tv what ever to the states sadly? those videos (especially the Jupiter battle) where F*(*ing A-awesome....

Dobber Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 The end of the month can not come fast enough!! Chris Quote
Dobber Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Plus...the Cosmo Zero is still one of my all time favorite fighters...it is just so.....I can't even figure out the words to describe it! Just love it so much. Lol! Chris Quote

No plans whatsoever?! You mean I gotta spend $100 US for each pair of lousy episodes?! Quote
westfall Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 No plans whatsoever?! You mean I gotta spend $100 US for each pair of lousy episodes?! Only the first volume has 2 episodes, the rest have 4. And yes, it doesn't make it better but at least you have the consolation of japanese quality and they come with some nice art booklets to collect and the wrap around art covers. Doubt any american release would have those. Quote
westfall Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) A few more videos surfaced at Nico Video, 3 are stuff repeated stuff (will go to that), but the other 3 are new and pure gold. Lets start with those: Ep.04 - Yamamoto takes the Cosmo Zero to stop a tank attack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq9QpEk1X0g&feature=player_embedded Ep. 05 and 06 - Fan edited scenes featuring the Reflex Gun (note: besides the drooling that this got me to do, spot the massive homage to "Final Yamato", i literaly started clapping when i saw that. Well, played, Mr. Izubushi...well played): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlnrBBDsGwg&feature=player_embedded Edited July 17, 2012 by westfall Quote
westfall Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Ep. 06 - The Yamato takes the battle to the Gamilas (note: notice the Gaiderol's warping, guess that's how the Yamato's warps will look in the future) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7p0fqgaSwI&feature=player_embedded Now the repeated stuff. Ep. 03 - Warp briefing, just because the image is now clean, sounds a bit wonky though... http://youtu.be/5ZJyCZM-gSw Edited July 17, 2012 by westfall Quote
westfall Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 The other 2 are part of the video with the battle and WMG firing at the Floating Continent. However, the video was at about 4:3 ratio, these 2 are closer to 16:9, though the bit between the 2 scenes is missing Any way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REG7isYOWew&feature=player_embedded http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGC3fpQ8BWs&feature=player_embedded Go and enjoy these while they're up.

renegadeleader1 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 No plans whatsoever?! You mean I gotta spend $100 US for each pair of lousy episodes?! I think all the major players have an interest in this, but after all past failed Yamato projects and half finished series I think they are all waiting to see if this series makes it to completion. If it does there is no doubt in my mind it makes it to the states. Quote
Kyp Durron Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Being able to watch those with the 1/500 model on my computer desk: priceless. -Kyp Quote
wm cheng Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Is this design much different than the Bandai 1/350? Quote
Kyp Durron Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Very much so, do a Google image search and compare the two. The 1/350 is based on the playstation 2 game as I recall. -Kyp Quote
Kyp Durron Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) I preordered two of them last month. I'm hoping it will be molded in color like the 1/500 kit. -Kyp Edited July 17, 2012 by Kyp Durron Quote

Dobber Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 How many of you preordered the 1/1000? Pre-ordered months ago. Chris Quote
TehPW Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 ok.... questions... Does the Yamato 2199 version Gun Turrets have the ability to fire two different types of shells? I've noticed that some gun fire looks very old school gun power effects, some fire like old school Yamato TV energy. Derp? Quote
Kyp Durron Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 From what I gathered, it can indeed fire two different types of ammo...the old school energy beams, and apparently, a projectile ammunition type as well. -Kyp Quote
Tochiro Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Does the Yamato 2199 version Gun Turrets have the ability to fire two different types of shells? I've noticed that some gun fire looks very old school gun power effects, some fire like old school Yamato TV energy. Derp? Yep, they sure do - regular shells and shock cannon rounds. Regular shells fire and impact...well, like regular shells. Shock cannon rounds twist together once they've traveled a certain distance to form one beam of gorgeous blue-white death. As to why they twist - if you pause the BD at the right spot you can clearly see that the rifling of the gun barrels is curved to cause this. For an example of each - in Ch. 1 regular rounds are used to take down the scout dropship and shock cannon rounds were used against the planet bomb (which was too close for them to have time to twist together). No plans whatsoever?! You mean I gotta spend $100 US for each pair of lousy episodes?! As has been noted already, only Ch.1 is 2 episodes - the rest are 4 episodes each AND have English subs. This means they arent as expensive as Japanese releases normally are (ie, twice the length as a Gundam Unicorn disc for a similar price) and preordering will knock a good 2000yen off each disc. Alternatively, wait a bit and order 2 or 3 at once to minimize shipping costs. This is an amazing show and is absolutely worth it (I paid similar for each VHS tape of Macross 7 back in the day, raw, damnit! lol). Unfortunately I cant see the show getting released in the US - if there was a chance of this happening I doubt they would have included the subs. Mecha/SF on tv is the kiss of death these days among younger non Japanese anime fans...sigh. But hey, at least this way we can support a good series AND get subtitles! Bandai is also doing this with Gundam Ace and (I think) the Gundam Seed remaster boxes - its something they seem to be making a habit of doing on all newer shows that dont have any licensing issues - ie, no Eng. subs on Macross due to the obviouos licensing problems, no subs on the GitS:SAC BD tv boxes since they are guaranteed to come out in the US/rest of the world eventually (although the theatrical and compilation movies all DID have subs, funnily enough).

westfall Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 in Ch. 1 regular rounds are used to take down the scout dropship and shock cannon rounds were used against the planet bomb (which was too close for them to have time to twist together). Call me nitpicking ass but that wasn't a "Planet Bomb", though the first time they name it the sub does mistankenly name it as such. It's an "Interplanetary Ballistic Missile or, if you preffer the Star Blazers name, Ultra Menace Missile. (this mistake (and just a few others) were confirmed in another forum by the people who actually make the subs and who, in a very sporting way, welcomed the fans corrections ) Quote
UN Spacy Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Sooooooo many scales. 1/325 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN946749 (Jan 2007) 1/500 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN965514 (Dec 2010) 1/625 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN961147 (Nov 2010) 1/700 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN42200 (May 2000) 1/1000 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN975308 (July 2012) 1/1000 http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN11666 (May 2000) Quote
TehPW Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 ok... another question? why do the Gamelons look... like white guys now? i though Gamelons were more... smurfy in color? Quote
UN Spacy Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 IIRC different nations serve the Gamilon Empire. I think whoever had the bluer skin tone were in greater positions of power. Quote
