This is the first time I have actually gotten a Macross toy that was new and sealed in that clear plastic wrapping. Up to now, everything I have gotten has been in great condition, but technically used and hence not sealed.... as my acquisitions up to now have either been from Jungle, AmiAmi, Mandarake, eBay, Yahoo Japan auctions, or MWF trades. So now, with regards to the 19F... there is a part of me that is struggling to unseal the toy. It's like, do I want to pop this valkyrie's cherry? Do I want to have it circumcised? This hesitations... it is such a weird feeling. OMG... I've become *THAT* kind of collector now, haven't I? Expand Nope...not even close....

(Sorry, circumcision was the closest thing I could think of for guys that was remotely close to losing one's virginity) Anyways. I will probably open the box sometime soon.... eventually. And when I finally do unseal it... it will hurt. I might even cry. =) Sorry, I'll shut up now and play with my toys in the corner over there.

But if you do watch it, do The Machete Order (IV, V, II, III, VI). You can skip I. Or just watch the Pod Race and the last Jedi Fight scene coz those are cool scenes. You can check this site on the explanation of the Machete Order but it has some spoilers though. You'd be warned.

derex3592 Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 I say you should just watch all them, in the correct order and judge for yourself, it's a good way to kill a lazy Sunday. There are some good parts to the prequels, and some parts we all wish we could never watch again, but they are what they are.

The birds were so cute, making their nests in the space ship. Best part of the movie. And I liked the sexual tension between Adam Driver and the heroine. Though, I was not a fan of that one pilot who kept not following orders from his superior officers. He was stupid.

Wait... now I am getting confused. Isn't there another Star Wars movie with that same plot? Well, whichever is the one where all the good guys on the planet die.... and I suppose all the bad guys too, now that I think about it. The explosion that the other bad guys caused killed both good guys and bad guys on the planet.
