This forum is nothing compared to the tarantula forum I’m on. You can’t post random pics of T’s that aren’t yours (claim copyright infringements). Can’t mention where you buy your T’s. Can’t post links to things you may buy. And they’re quite rude if you have newb questions. The site seems to be run by a bunch of nazis. This forum is quite tame. 

Tarantula bzns is srs bzns.

In my mind as i read it, i heard their voices! Oh man, I really want that TV 1S. You just switch pilots with the 1J and you got a TV 1S Hikkie!

Haha, this community is great! Everything here is for fun and the mutual love of Macross. Anyone who takes anything too seriously or personal on a forum needs to step away, sit back and chill for a bit and it will all be better. :p

look forward to the hell that will be preorder night and most importantly, can’t wait to get this beauty in hand probably sometime next year.

Even though the DX VF-1 is a new step for Bandai this year, there's always love for the Chunky Monkeys.

That chunky monkey has some real premium finish going on!! :p

Yep....took Bandai 20 years to finally release one with a decent amount of tampo printing on it so you don't have to mess with stickers.....

Almost another 20 years after that and they've gone tampo hardcore!

Based anime accuracy was always so close:

I was actually just working on something else Macross-meme themed in PS, when I checked this thread (so I just put that together real fast).  Hopefully I'll finish what I was working on this weekend.

All these years we thought that Yamato just totally screwed up the VF-1S head on their V1 release......turns out it was a Kawamori head!!! :rolleyes:

That 1/60 v1 Head can’t be as bad as the 1/48 VF-1S Head with the mold line right down the middle, can it?

It's pretty bad....

The poor Yamato V1 VF-1 toys were instrumental in re-igniting the new PT VF-1 golden age we are living in right now....but they are seldom brought up these days for a reason..several of them...;)

This is a thing of beauty right here. :rofl:
 

There are a handful of us “regulars” on this thread. Many have been here for a long while. I’ve only done 4 or 5 PO nights and even then there is a trend. Each time, people come out of the woodwork magically and begin asking the same questions of how everyone can help them land a PO. It’s totally fine of course because we all started somewhere. But this is a community and so would just be cool if those asking would at least first try searching for previous info (someone inevitably posts the answers every PO) and second be willing to contribute. (This isn’t directed at you @Chewie. I’m generally speaking. Pretty sure you even mentioned trying to search first.)

I got a bunch of snark too from people. And still do.

Many of us do that. I have for the past two POs

You guys are totally fine, and I get it. LMGTFY is my favorite comeback in several mediums, including some groups I moderate. I've been on MW for longer than I care to admit, just kinda fell off lately. I didn't at all mean to imply you guys were being rude, just saucy.

Perfect! Welcome back! I joined the party only a year and half ago so I’m still a noob compared to other members.

Most importantly, where can I get that sick gun and most MOST importantly, is that a bundled Max 1J with armor!!

 Bring back the damn vintage Bandai!!!

I can't recall if I still have mine...if you have a chance can you snap a head-on shot of the V1 VF-1S head like the ones below?....I would like to see how more "squished" it looks compared to the new DX TV VF-1S head....all I can remember is that it looks way too small for the rest of the body it's attached to....
