Just got back from Nagoya. Its mostly the same as the first one in Takarazuka but with some changes.

One of the few negative changes was that the timeline shown at the entrance ends at 2059, instead of going to 2090 in the Macross II era. I might actually be partially to blame for this. At the first Macross Museum talkshow, I asked Director Kawamori how a museum that is set in 2060 could know about something 30 years in the future.

The 1/1 scale cockpit is back, and has improved detailing and weathering. But if you buy a photograph of it for 1,500yen, they photoshop it to look like whichever model you want, brand spanking new with no weathering.
The other displays are mostly the same. The new section is for the Delta characters and a 3D printed hand painted prototype of the VF-31.

This is the entrance to the museum, where it introduces the setting, taking place in 2060 showing artifacts from the DYRL era. This area had the only no photograph sign, on the protoculture artifact with the lyrics to Ai Oboeteimasu and the english translation.

And here is the main attraction, where you can either have someone take a picture of you in the 1/1 VF-1 cockpit, or pay 1,500 yen for a professional photograph taken, photoshoped to whichever model you want.

In the Delta section, the last photo on the bottom right, with that black and white pic of what looks to be an unknown guy in a Delta Squad jacket and a unknown girl in what looks like the suit Reina was wearing when she jumped out of Chuck's 31 before she "transformed". Could it be they were the original crew of Delta 05 before they went the way of Gilliam and its later handed to Hayate and Freya?

Or it could just be concept art.

Perhaps just yet-to-be-introduced characters?

I'd say those are more likely to be unused early designs for Freyja and Hayate.

That was my guess. I like those versions more, they seem less derivative of "everything else".

I think Tochiro mentioned the other day that they were characters from one of the Delta manga tie-up publications.

Of course, he would have cleared it up long ago if he were here, so we wouldn't have to be guessing and speculating.

Kind of goes to show how in the dark we all are without him... Just sayin' :p

I chose "to be in" the VF-1S DYRL Hikaru back when Macross the Museum was in Tokyo last year. The new things that were not in the previous would be the Delta stuff. Were the Minmay, Sheryl and Ranka manequins there at Nagoya?

Just the costumes

Are those models in the Wall display area 1/72 or 1/60 ones? I'm making the same thing for my hallway and like how simple and clean it all looks but some of those planes arent available in 1/72 I thought.

Posted

ahhh right. There IS no such thing as a 1/72 VF-17 and VF-171 is there?

Posted

Bariaburu Faita, where was this at? I'm in Japan now, and want to check it out before I leave. Please let me know! Thank you.

Posted

Yes, like Sketchley said its unfortunately already done. Where are you at now? Will you be in Osaka area anytime soon?

With the exception of that 1:1 scale VF-1 cockpit most of us have all the stuff they've got on display. Rent an art gallery for a night and you can make your own Macross museum.

Wow. Um... Do YOU Remember Love?

Most people have the original Protoculture plate and handwritten song translation? The original photo album shown on the original SDFM TV anime? Full cosplay costumes for Minmay, Sheryl and Ranka? Original production art from unreleased products? Glovals Pipe? Large prints of Tenjin art? Event limited items from the last couple years of Japan exclusive Macross events?

I am sorry but I have to respectfully disagree that most people on this forum could make this Museum exhibit. In fact, I would say that no one on the forums owns all the items shown here, so zero people could make this same exhibit.

Come on gang, I bet if we pooled our resources with something like kickstarter or even patreon, we could do something like that here! Sure maybe we wouldn't have 90% of the rare stuff from the actual museum, but we could make an event out of it...Maybe something like MacrossWorld con! It would be like a Macross museum but without all the hardcore stuff the actual museum has.

Posted

Maybe I was over exaggerating but if you combine the collections for several collectors like what you see at Macross World Con and put them in the right setting you would have something pretty close.

I don't think that's his real pipe. How does 2D person use a 3D pipe anyways.
