  1. Past hour
  2. Might as well go to AI datacenters as we can't buy memory nor GPUs to go with a new CPU 🤡
  3. Intel is reportedly preparing a 10% price increase for Consumer CPUs (Tweaktown.com) AMD will not be far behind.🙄
  4. Kakizaki!!! Finally after selling it several years ago to cover some health expenses I finally have the Yamato Vermilion team together again. I still remeber getting this one from HLJ way back in the day with a 30% off! ... plus 4 more brownies 2 closed from Mandarake and opened from Ami ami. Had to ask for a friend to get the second one from ami ami to bypass the 1 per household limit. Count 24.
  5. Finally returning to the Plamax Bellvine. Not many seams to deal with, but it has lots of mold lines. I will completely buildup all subassembly’s like head, arms, legs, feet, thrusters etc… and have fun being loose with my painting. Probably only masking off the eyes on this one and then move on to brush painting lacquer for the metal hoses etc… Looking forward to being more freestyle in my approach due to the semi organic vibe and messing around with this bug…or is it a bird? Not sure
  6. Today
  7. I haven't decided yet, depends on when some deliveries come in. Definitely pilot figure next though.
  8. Thanks for this @jenius. What are you planning on reviewing next after part 4?
  9. They're down to €1000-1500-range now, according to PCPartPicker (GER) 😅. Be glad you bought it when you did. Unless you need a new one, in which case...good luck.
  10. Macross is not a hobby for the financially faint-of-heart, that's for sure. 😅 Between the Japanese domestic market prices for things like physical media, books/mooks, models, toys, albums, etc. and the cost of international shipping and the associated taxes makes it pretty darn costly at the best of times. That much spread across a decade or so ain't too bad, but all at once? Ouch. I did some checking, and it looks like the color art was possibly only available in the non-archived digital distribution and/or individual print issues of Dengeki Hobby. EDIT: I was able to find the illustrator's (Tommy Otsuka's) socials, but nothing Macross related on their two twitter accounts. Their old artist website is defunct, and I haven't yet checked their pixiv account but what I can see on Twitter is that it's mostly OC NSFW stuff.
  11. The comments under Mark's video speaks for everyone lol

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    Ankles/thrusters jutting out in fighter mode Gerwalk mode is just horrible and has no resemblance to the OA If this is not plain laziness on tamashii part to try and frankelstein the VF-171, i dunnoe what is Is it me or the DX VF-17S is severely lacking in tampos department? Guess this will be a one off release due to the poor sales and revenue
  13. +1 I like the VF-171, but that toy had issues and it departs quite a bit from the VF-171, especially in bulk and proportions. I'm content with my Yammie VF-17 for now. I hope they'll do an HMR VF-17, and if they do, as you said, it'll very likely be a scaled down version of the Yamato just like their VF-4. We really need another toy company dedicated to getting Macross right, as Arcadia is all but dead at this point, and while not everything they made was perfect, at least there was passion behind their products. We need a toy company with that kind of dedication again, as well as the finances to take chances on obscure designs along with the more popular ones. Bandai has the finances, but obviously, Macross is an afterthought.
  14. So last year I bought the PS5 Pro and on Black Friday an 8TB NVMe from WD direct for €640, I was just looking at the playstation website to see what the prices are now on the WD drives, First Playstation Germany doesn't link to WD for drives anymore, it only gives you the US site where you pay over $2600 for an 8TB drive....🥶 That's nuts! 😱🤪
  15. My name is based on my callsign and my avatar is from a photo I took while in the backseat of a super hornet.
  16. MarkH's tweet and yt-review: https://twitter.com/MarkH68008141/status/2035613978706206814 web-translated:
  17. The market for a "raw power, no fancy features" card certainly exists. "No RTX, no DLSS, no AI, just pure polygon-calculating-power".
  18. R.I.P. threads will no longer be a part of MacrossWorld going forward. The only exceptions will be regarding those who were a direct part of the Macross franchise. Thank you for your understanding. - MacrossWorld Admin and Moderation team
  19. The Maxx was one of the greatest comic to cartoon animations ever, if not the best. The whole Image team back then was great, loved the comic and show. Lots of little details and an original story.
  20. Thank you, that was the shock of the news.
  21. Actually, it's "Kieth," not "Keith." He was one of those rare comic book writers who could also draw incredibly well.
  22. https://bleedingcool.com/comics/sam-kieth-creator-of-the-maxx-and-sandman-has-died-aged-63/ I discovered Sam Kieth's art through comics, and later through the animated series The Maxx on MTV Brazil. I really liked his "busy" art style, and how he expressed every detail of the characters like few others. We will miss him, but now he must be happy, in his Outback with his creations. Thanks
