Looks bigger than I was expecting. Also, this figure is how I found out that HLJ doesn’t allow cancellations anymore. -

And we're starting with Chapter 1 - Deep Space War Bird! https://www.tumblr.com/trafalgarlog/812545257042509824/macross-the-ride-1-deep-space-war-bird?source=share In the sea of stars, there is no forward nor backward. It is a world governed by inertia alone, where all one can do is float. It is a hollow world where one neither flies nor advances, merely drifting along the course of another’s vector. Even so, she thought that she wanted to fly. Please enjoy, and stay tuned for further updates!

I, PixelatedShinobi, am funding an English translation of Macross the Ride! Chapter 1 just released, and more will be releasing every month over the next 11-12 months! Macross the Ride was a prose series published in Dengeki Hobby Magazine from 2011-2012, accompanied by custom models by KuWa (Frameoutworks). It is a prequel/sidestory to Macross Frontier and follows Chelsea Scarlett, S.M.S. pilot, as she is sucked into the thrilling and dangerous world of Vanquish Racing in the Frontier fleet. It was collected into two volumes and two Visual Books, but aside from some work to translate the contents of the Visual Books, it has never been released in English. Until now! It can be read here! https://gundamseedastray.blog/ Additional information can be found at @trafalgarlog.bsky.social and @pixeldoesthings.bsky.social!

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
Hikuro replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
bummer, kind of short.... -
Before actually seeing the series, I kinda thought it was for kids. All the designs have sorta a cutesy kinda look with that bulbous head. It wasn’t until around the 90’s when I saw a couple episodes on a bootleg vhs that I realized it was definitely more adult. Now I look at the designs in a different way, kinda more practical than gundam or even Macross with compact size more like a walking tank with a large head totally designed to fit the pilot’s head. The only nitpick I ever had was that scopedogs can’t really look up the way they’re designed. But I forgive it, just like I forgive real dogs

There goes the "it is not a toy" thing.

Pretty neat. Never mentioned before back in the 80s the Legioss was my favourite fighter, even I preferred it over the VF-1 back then cuz of its compact design and its vertical take off. Even after all those time, I still have soft spot for it.

Looking at this pix, really makes me wonder if bandai opted for a slick and streamline profile for the VF-17S, why didnt they adopt the same approach the VF-19. At least they would have complimented each other

Yet amz-jp is scalping higher shipping-fees for it than their own YF-21 offering if you're importing to the US, at least: frickin' bizarro. at any rate, Hacchaka review is up: https://twitter.com/hacchaka999/status/2038561092298068168 https://hacchaka.net/archives/52131263.html

@joscasle @Big s thanks

Me too! From the two Takara AT's, I had in the 80's, one was the Brutishdog that I ordered after seeing it in a magazine, When it came I was so disappointed with the bad colour matching that Takara did that I sold both units a couple of month later! The V.O.T.O.M.'s anime series was clearly directed at adults, but Takara decided to make the V.O.T.O.M toys for kids and was not adhering to what was shown on screen! Now I can finally get the Brutishdog that I wanted back then...🤗
-
Cool! Looking forward to adding the Brutishdog.
-
It is already going for like 110 usd. I totally see it going like 10 or 20 usd lower seeing how poorly the VF-19 is doing supposedly being one of the most popular valks in Japan
-
Yup, same, same. BUT... I need the Tornado..
-
Something about Snake's face still isn't right. Maybe his nose is a tad big. Definitely need Eva. Still playing mgsv after 233 hours thus far, I need a Quiet in my life.

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
Seto Kaiba replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Definitely my favorite... it's one of the rare cases where my tendency to overanalyze things is actually useful. 😅 I've been doing a bit more poking at the VF-25, VF-31, and VF-31AX Master File books for more details on stealth technology lately. There's some bizarre concepts in there. I think the weirdest being the idea that the VF-17's passive stealth coating is made up of microvilli-like structures similar to an intestinal lining to maximize its surface area to allow it to intercept and absorb radar waves from all angles. -
Oh man.,..tempted by that VF-25 Tornado! I'll wait until some more pics come out to make a decision. I have too many kits as it is. Haven't even finished their original VF-25 release.

Always liked the sharper lines of the Meltrandi ships. Nice work on yours.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
Thom replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
That is some incredible model work! -
Personally I usually use gundam white from Mr color. It’s really a very pale grey. Kind like if you added a few drops of grey to a white mix. Basically not so white that it’s blinding and not so dark either
