The KC site currently has a sale on Max & Milia that is good enough for me to give in to my M&M completionist compulsion. I'm tempted myself, but I know they'd probably just end up sitting in the box for years. Quote

aaajin Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Because...why not?! Theyre fun to transform (perfect transformation), lots of details &...fun fun fun. At one point I had like 8-9 of them lying arounfd but now I'm only keeping two (1S Roy & 1A Hikaru). Made a CF/destroid custom myself back then, but sold it on ebay...someone here bought it? I know a few who hoards them like crazy back in the days ... Bobepatt still here? He's a total JM junkie... Edited January 18, 2019 by aaajin Quote
aaajin Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Btw, experten also made a chibi transformable YF-19 kit few years back Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Gave in and bought the Max/Miria set from KC... Oh well, another box for the pile. Quote

SpaceCowboy Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 In my head-canon, I see the SD valks as little one person asteroid mining utility vehicles that can transform using the same technology of the giant war machines they look like. Quote

That reminds me I need to find that Alto one. @Scyla there you go: https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1104556166&ref=list&soldOut=1&keyword=Macross&lang=en Quote
Spiff Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I kind of liked them then I parted with all my SD toys a couple years ago except for one RT VF-1S joke machine that I still display. The RT morphers were ridiculously bad and cheaply made, they pretty much fell apart in the box. Just plain junk. Quote

This is an officially-licensed Macross product under the purview of Big West, who should be ashamed of themselves. I'd give the Seika Note Co. an "F" in English, except it's not actually possible to receive a failing grade in Japanese public schools. Sad but true. Quote
jvmacross Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Don't forget South Atalla Islands!.....but seriously this type of "Engrish" is nothing new...it even shows up on the tampo printing of recently released toys, right? Quote
no3Ljm Posted February 8, 2019 Posted February 8, 2019 Don't get me wrong. I like how cute SD figures are from Gundams to Macross. But I can't bring myself on buying them. The only SD figure that I have in my recent collections is the MM Makuros and SD Minmay. Quote
