  1. Hey all, I've been off radar for a few years. Went thru some life changes and purged my entire Macross collection . (Some of you may now own those very figures!) Anyway, I'm back! But like many, I'm too late. I missed the preorder for the Bandai DX Chogokin VF-1S Roy Focker. And now its on eBay for upwards fo $444! Thats insane. Whats a fella to do? I want a VF-1S with Super Parts. Will there be another release? And if not, whats the next best thing? Arcadia? Never owned an Arcadia fig. All my stuff was Yamato. Thanks gang! Good to be back.
  2. @eggy99 Cool idea - I'll make a variant with orange accent and post it up this weekend. @JetJockey - also a really cool idea! I'll work on a design. For everyone, in case I never said it: these are all my designs and my artwork so happy to make adjustments and take ideas for new shirts!
  3. Thank you so much man! I'm glad you are happy with it and appreciate the plug.
  4. Thanks all! I went with H as it won the poll. Check it out here if you'd like to snag one. https://www.neatoshop.com/product/VF-X-Valkyrie
  5. Hi all, worked up a graphic design for a t-shirt and cant decide on the final layout. This is a subtle design that looks like something a team member might have received if they were a part of the Development Team for the VF-X fighter! Hope you dig it.
  6. Thanks! I cant recall where Claudia and Roy are during that scene where the VF-X is behind them and someone is testing the leg flexing. Macoss Island makes sense, but I dont think they ever really say...
  7. Hi all, random curiosity: The VF-X we see in Ep33 - where is that being tested/developed? Macross Island? I cant get to my DVDs right now or I'd check myself... Also, if any one has a decent pic of the Yamato figure - up close on the tail logo, I'd appreciate it. Working on a little t-shirt design.
  8. Thanks Falcon, I'll look into the shapeways option since true awesomeness escapes us at this time.
  9. Well, the shoulder on my 1/60 Yamato VF Roy Focker finally gave up the ghost and the arm completely fell off. I've been reading up on this and it sounds like my two options are: 1. somehow get a hold of an official Yamato replacement shoulder 2. Get a shapeways shoulder. My questions are: 1. How do I get an official shoulder? 2. The threads I've been reading here say the shapeways shoulder does not actually fit properly. 3. Is there a 3rd, more awesome option? What is a fella to do?
  10. So the only place left looks like Yes Asia but their price is ridiculous. Are they at least legit? I try and restrict myself to AmiAmi, HLJ and hobbySearch. so not too familiar with them.
  11. Hey all, can anyone tell me what "NY" is? Not familiar with this store.
  12. Ah yes, buried in a scoopda thread! Well, it probably merits its own thread, amiright?
  13. I dont know where else to put this so I'll just drop it here. Mods, feel free to relocate.. Found some news about the 30th Anniversary Event, including a 1/1 Messiah!! "The Macross 30th anniversary projects website announced on Friday that a 1/1-scale model of a VF-25F Messiah Valkyrie variable fighter (in the intermediate GERWALK mode) will appear at the 30th Anniversary Macross Super Dimension Exhibition ~Valkyrie de Sasotte!~ event from April 28 to May 6. The website also announced that a real-life Miss Macross 30″ contest, a stage musical with new material, and a museum display of the franchises designs are being planned. The 30th Anniversary exhibition will take place at the Sunshine City complex in Tokyos Ikebukuro district from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Super Dimension Fortress Macross television series the first anime in the Macross franchise premiered in 1982, and this year marks the mecha franchises 30th anniversary. The exhibition will also feature a recreation of the concert scenes of the Macross Frontier characters Sheryl Nome and Ranka Lee, as well as a legendary songstress.

  14. Any word if the Alto will be available again? The eBay option is ridiculously expensive...
