jenius Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 They've certainly surprised us in the past... all hope is not lost. Quote

Just saw the pic and thought the same thing....the Scout is TV...would have made sense to make a TV -1S Roy to go with it....may still happen as they did not make TV-style super packs for M&M anyway or he never had a chance to "wear" them on the show either...either way a Scout packed with a pair of used chopsticks would still be an insta-buy for most of us!

I've been lobbying for gift-sets in the HMR line for a while and when they put one together it's just a total head scratcher. or a three-pack? Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) I never thought any toy line would ever feature complete lineup up TV Regults, but with the Regult Scout, Bandai has achieved that. Packaged solo or with Roy's DYRL VF-1s, this is a definite buy for me. Edited October 25, 2019 by TheLoneWolf Quote
sh9000 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 If the VF-1S DYRL Roy is a placeholder for a VF-1S TV Roy then I would want it to come with an updated neck joint, shoulder covers, a TV Roy pilot and a Hikaru pilot for when Hikaru took over, and Super Parts with correct TV arm armor. I'll get 4 Regult Scouts to open and 1 to keep MISB. Quote
Saburo Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 I am in for Regult Scout. I hope that the Tomahawk and Phalanx will finally be announced for PO. Quote
neko878 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Finally got around to unboxing the VF-4 Lightning III and took some pics Quote
vlenhoff Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Nice pics @neko878 A Scout Regult and a Tomahawk, would be a wet dream. I'll def get it, no matter what it comes paired with. Quote
Big s Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 I honestly don’t care how the scout gets packaged, by itself or packed with a friend. I need it in my life. I got multiples of all the other enemy units and have the glaug and the regults needing their team mate. It would make a nice shelf setup to have the standard guy, the heavy weapon types and the boss man joined by their intel guy. Quote

sh9000 Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Flashback Friday. The inner kid in me having fun with HMR battles. Quote
rocketblast Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Any date for this pre-order of VF-1J Strike Valkyrie? Quote
jvmacross Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Way too much non-Macross HMR in Bandai's pipeline....SAD Hopefully, what was shown represents just the first half of the year....but I doubt it Quote
Lolicon Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Must have that Regult Scout and Tomahawk. BS if it's bundled with Roy's VF-1S. It's not even a TV version. Quote
Karaoke Ninja Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 So that's it? Just a Scout Regult? Well, that was a huge disappointment. I'm happy for everyone else but I was really wishing for a new VF mold. Maybe next year... Quote

To be clear, the tomahawk was not at the event... Someone posted pictures of it from a previous event while people are posting pictures from the current event. I agree though, it would be a must buy if it gets made some day. Quote
Chronocidal Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 Is this one of those events where they reveal more later, or is this just all we're getting at this one? Quote

jvmacross Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 This is one of the yearly "shock and awe" events...sadly, nothing really shocking or awe-inspiring materialized, in terms of Macross. One positive note however, is that Bandai apparently has already provided us with a pretty good look at what Macross items will most likely be produced at some point....when each actually is produced/released is still anyone's guess.... The future still looks pretty promising.....it's just clearly apparent now that we are being forced into playing the long game... Quote
technoblue Posted October 26, 2019 Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Indeed. Bandai has its Macross roadmap, but for us it's more waiting...waiting...waiting... Edited October 26, 2019 by technoblue its Quote
sh9000 Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I’m hoping the Tomahawk just pops up in a magazine soon with a price and release date. Quote

rocketblast Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I hope you all get the ones you want really. It's a great hobby. Quote
Tober Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 How much of an indicator is Tamashii Nation as far as releases go..? If the Tomahawk is announced in a few months, would they have shown it at TN anyway, given that the already did so years ago? Was there any sign of the Fokker VF-4..? What I'm saying is that I don't think TN is like Arcadia at Wonderfest where products are shown repeatedly until released... 11 hours ago, jvmacross said: This is one of the yearly "shock and awe" events...sadly, nothing really shocking or awe-inspiring materialized, in terms of Macross.

Looks like bandai, for new merchandise, gave macross fans the bare minimum. Yup long game indeed! Quote
HardlyNever Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 If the Scout and Roy VF-1S do in fact end up being sold exclusively as a double pack, it will basically confirm what we've been realizing for the past few years: non-valks rarely sell well on their own. It could be the new reality that in order to get a non-valk release, we're going to have to buy it bundled with a popular valk (either as a re-issue, or something they haven't made, but think will sell well). The GBP set is a prime candidate for something like this. Probably the Hikaru VF-1S DYRL. The Max VF-1J sold well enough, but maybe not well enough to serve as a bundle seller. I would think the TV VF-1S would be a good match as well, but maybe we'll get that later? Or we could be jumping way ahead of ourselves and this won't be a bundle at all. It's fun to speculate, though. Quote
derex3592 Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 You know.....at this rate, I'll be to freakin OLD and FEABLE to enjoy the rest of the HM-R promised line if and when they ever see the light of day...jeeeeez Bandai, come on.. Quote
Podtastic Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 At least they have made a start on that bottom row. Hopefully the Scout po for Christmas? Too optimistic? Quote
easnoddy Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Was there anything non-Macross shown under the HMR line? Did they reveal that FSS mech? Quote

easnoddy Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Nevermind, watched the video. So the 2 Macross, something that's "not exactly Gundam but looks like a gundam", the Xabungle mech already released, 2 other things I don't know and 2 L-Gaim mechs (he said HI Spec). Disappointed they arent continuing the Dougram line as TWE. I guess I need to watch Xabungle. Quote
Convectuoso Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 If it comes to double packs, I'm waiting for the Q-Rau & Max VF-1A combo Quote
