    I can't speak to the concert Blu-rays. That's not really my thing, so I haven't collected them. Macross Frontier has two movies: The False Songstress and The Wings of Goodbye. The two films together form a single DYRL?-style alternate version of the events of Macross Frontier's TV series with different approaches to the characters, some original designs, etc. It also has one epilogue OVA, The Labyrinth of Time, which is packaged with the second of Macross Delta's movies, because they were released together as a double-feature. There is also the aforementioned Macross 7 crossover/clipshow OVA thing Macross FB7: Listen to my Song!, which is kind of a 7-Frontier mashup similar to Flash Back 2012. Macross Delta has two movies: Passionate Walkure and Absolute Live!!!!!!. The first (Passionate Walkure) is a DYRL?-style retelling of the events of the Macross Delta TV series, albeit without much in the way of new/original design works or radical changes. The second film (Absolute Live!!!!!!) is an all-new original story set after the events of the first film with an emphasis on wrapping up the various dangling threads of character arcs for characters like Hayate, Freyja, and Mirage. Absolute Live!!!!!! also came packaged with Macross Frontier's epilogue short The Labyrinth of Time.

    Robotech is already finished….but not in the way Harmony Gold was hoping

    It does make them look a bit like the gundam chest vents.

    I'd probably consider getting these new Legioss if the intake area was painted grey instead of yellow orange.

    I got Hot Rod from Target for $34.99 before the price increase. That's a reasonable price to me. If it ever goes on clearance then even better. It will be an easy return and repurchase.

    I own the tread and the legioss from Sentinel and i love them. The two toys, combined together, are stunning. But i also have a lot of toys from Pose+ and most of them are incredible. And judging from the adds-on for the Gaogaigar a Tread would be amazing. But yes, i understand what you are saying and i am with you: no clue of where to put it and spending so much money on a toy that i already have a version which i love it is...hard to justify.

    Sorry, I meant to say I was asking specifically about Macross Frontier and Delta releases that aren't the main TV series for each. Like I don't know what Macross Frontier Galaxy Live Final 2025 and Macross Frontier Galaxy Live Final 2021 are. And I guess there's at least 2 movies for Frontier, and maybe 3+ movies for Delta? Are the movies new material or made up of TV clips?
  12. M'Kyuun
    I'll third, especially when the much smaller Legioss sets you back $500+, and yet, if their Legioss is a good judge of what's to come with their Tread, it stands to be the pinnacle of that design in a toy. That said, I'm still trying to figure out where I'm going to put my Pose+ Legioss, big chunky thing that it is, let alone a Tread that will dwarf it. Too, not sure I want to spend around a grand for it, either. If I get a Tread eventually, it'll most likely be a Sentinel version to go with my Eta.
  13. Robin-11
    I agree, me too. And still, i wish Pose+ would release all the three variants of Legioss and Tread. I know, i have issues.😂

    Aside from any eccentricities specific to your preferred online storefront, the main thing you have to worry about is sticker shock from the cost of physical media and the cost of the international shipping. CDJapan has been my preferred store for a couple years now. I've generally had a very good, problem-free experience with them. I've typically used DHL or FedEx for international express shipment and that's been largely problem free for me aside from one or two delays in customs. Yes. Yeah, aside from I think one specific box set the Macross Frontier releases are Japanese-only while all the Macross Delta Blu-rays were cheekily given English subs in anticipation of them being purchased internationally in defiance of Harmony Gold's then-ongoing blockage of licensing outside Japan. Quite good, IMO. The movies, mainly. You've already covered Macross II and Macross Plus. The Macross 7 "Complete Fire" two-volume box set has all the Macross 7 supplemental material including the Macross Dynamite 7 OVA, Macross 7: the Galaxy is Calling Me! movie, the Macross 7 PLUS omakes, and the unbroadcasted episodes sometimes referred to as Macross 7 Encore. Macross FB7: Listen to My Song! is sold separately, and the Macross Frontier: the Labyrinth of Time is included with the blu-ray of the second Macross Delta movie. Macross Zero's available in the US already, so you don't have to worry about that one.

    OK. I'm trying to collect various Macross media on blu-ray. I got the Macross Plus Ultimate Edition from Crunchyroll. I will hopefully be getting the Macross Zero collection soon. I am signed up for the Macross II kickstarter and will get that when finally released. I just ordered the japanese DYRL 4K with english subtitles from Amazon. I was excited when they announced Macross Delta and Frontier getting officially released in the US. but that seems to have stumbled. So my question is, what is it like to order Delta and Frontier content as japanese release editions? They seem to all be region free so they will play OK on US region A players? And it looks like most Frontier media has no english subtitles, while most Delta content does? Is that fair to say? And how is the quality of the english subtitles on the japanese releases? And I'm not too familiar with the additional materials released outside the main TV series... can anyone tell me which additional blu rays would be recommended beyond the main series?

    Initially, I figured this referenced the standard Eta, Iota, and Zeta versions, but yeah, it'd be cool if these initial. more imaginative, Legioss relaseses got Treads to match. I've yet to own a Tread, and with an Omega on PO, I may just have to indulge in one for it if the design isn't too far out there. Regarding the feet, I'm wondering if the heels and toes line up if you configure the heels for soldier, but splay the toe out as seen in diver mode. Best option if so. I'm just not at all crazy about the weirdly high arches of the feet as they've been depicted in most of the promo shots. If I have to keep them in diver config while in soldier mode, so be it. Shame they didn't go just that little extra in the design process to allow for clearance for the toe to move forward a tad more like the Sentinel or the Toynami, both of which did it beautifully, especially the Sentinel. That small additional arc of motion makes a big difference IMHO. Hard to believe the Toyrise figs are smaller than the already small Sentinel figs. I'm getting the sense that these will feel comparable to a voyager/leader class Transformers figs in-hand, which isn't a bad thing, especially if they have that level of sturdiness and playability. It also keeps them space-friendly for the space-impaired, like me.

    I basically cannot stomach paying that much just to "have that annoying yellow spot on the roof removed". I see no other real improvements. (and the exhaust pipes are LESS shiny/chromelike now, they're not even silver paint) Though my biggest irritiation, is that with all that much time+budget from the pricepoint increase, they still didn't fix the fact that the front bumper doesn't stay down in place at all. It still basically "hovers" above and between the fenders. I spent hours carving/tweaking my copy, and while it's notably better, it's still not GOOD and will never really peg into place. "A car that doesn't look like it was in an accident with the bumper crushed in and up" is more important than a fishing pole...

    I am very toy-centric, so I am awaiting/hoping for a more toy-based recolor of the MMC/Ocular Max Devy. My last Devastator was G2. (yes, the actual G2).

    4 year old resurrection! Someone did a proper Haneda Special Edition version of the scene, neat!!

    It's got a link to the Visit the TAMASHII NATIONS Store so I think it's official! But it still might get a Japan only release and not ship elsewhere but some do get through! I purchased an HMR Scopedog from amazon with the same link, and got it three days later.... So keep an eye out! 😉

    I wonder if this was just a placeholder for third party sellers.

    Speaking of FATTY markings 😱 With some colours you can turn it into a Gundam! 🤣

    While I feel that the new arms for Bonecrusher are an improvement I wonder why they didn’t design whole new arms that gave the toy a more contoured arm, where the upper and lower arms are not a continuous shape. (I know I know cartoon accuracy for the win but the balljoint and entire arm look atrocious)
  25. Big s
    Even modern anime is very light on markings and they usually don’t exact all. Newer gundam shows and Macross or whatever, and you may be lucky to see an emblem. All that 3D cg stuff and it still isn’t there other than extremely rare cases. I don’t know if the new Votoms stuff will have much as far as markings or just go bare minimum

    Tamashii Nations will be selling the April rerelease of the Roy Focker Armour Valkerie (GBP) through Amazon! No price is given as of yet but might be a cheap option!
  27. grogall
    Votoms Plastic Model World will be held on the 15 of March. This will probably be when Wave will announce their next 1/24 AT, I hope Bandai also makes some announcements as well!
