No worries, glad to share!

It is pretty cool that the "C" variant was sneaked into the lineup in kit form....and then it made a second appearance when ARII released those awful "toys" based off of the kits years later...lol

I would insta-buy a book covering the history of Macross merchandising/marketing during the SDFM/DYRL era

Thanks for the video link, I enjoyed that! Its a nice format to see the booklet/line drawings, then seeing the animation in context. Very cool.
It is always crazy to see this cel, as xstoys has it in his personal collection. Wild.

Another Nichimo Iron-On collector...nice! :)
That is just the 2nd set I've seen in the wild after all these years.

You are just missing the Prometheus badge below, while I am missing the Daedalus Spartan one you have.
Between both the collections we can make the complete set!

I'll send you a scan of your missing iron-on for the one I'm missing and the instruction sheet! :friends:

Thanks for posting all these jvmacross, it made my day. One of my favorite aspects of collecting the old Imai/Arii kits has been finding the catalog inserts and various ephemera in the boxes. To see them all in one place is quite a treat!

No problem, glad this stuff is still appreciated by Macross fans! :good:

You were bidding on it. So I didn't bid. I will see one for sale again.

There is no way for you to have specifically known if I or anyone else would have been bidding....it's like that on any online auction these days....it's been like that for decades...lol

Make me an offer I can't refuse

No that's yours. You are one of the Hammer of the Gods. I told you about the other bidder name.  You have to watch out for. He goes by the name of "Toby Chiu". Which I am sure it's a facebook fake account. He has posted many "white whales" on the Macross groups. We don't get along either.

You cannot control who is bidding on the same items as you...winning is just a matter of you wanting it more badly than the other bidders and having the ability to outspend the competition..........LOL

Which is why Mercari is the great equalizer! ;)  If you are on the site at the right time, you can score some ridiculously priced stuff...

I am sure they are at least six more promo items. We haven't seen yet. I want to post that postcard "toby" has posted, but both of you will hunt it down. I do too.

yes, please try to just post what you own, not what you wish you owned
