In other words we got owned by tamashii and bandai for their laziness and cost cutting measures.

These days I'm not feeling so much of buying lacklustre releases just so in the hope for the manufacturer to go on making the ones we want. Not especially when manufacturer can be really tone-deaf to fan sentiments. At same time, I dread to return to what I think would be the dark days of Macross collecting of.. pre early-2000s? Feels like the new Macross anime can't come soon enough - at least there'll be some new valks to get excited with, and not bastardised versions of old ones & various vaporwares. As I'm typing this I'm mourning how stuff so many stuff from Delta hasn't got released - chiefly a SV-303.

LOL this makes perfect sense! I was a bit ambivalent about the TV Valks in earlier days, because the sea of white makes it look very plain. But eventually I come to appreciate it more because it accentuates the sleek VF-1 Fighter silhouette especially the fuselage areas - no stripes to break the lines.

Also keep in mind subscription fees are inching upwards with Netflix raising their rates. The other streaming services will follow. It's not just reusing sets. VFX is expensive. That's always been a problem with sci-fi and space-based shows. They've always reused shots but when they have to create that new shot, pay up 🤑.

If these are the release week prices, it should be reasonable to expect the price to approach 10k within a quarter... especially when even the jp fans are sharing the same sentiments as we do

I just wish they’d do more than just gundams in the entry grade series. I guess that if they do just stick to main gundams, at least they could do a really great GP-01 that actually looks like the one from the OVA.

High budget shows can work, but they gotta be good enough to bring in viewers and it would probably help to be on a service that people actually have. They may get more subscribers though when HBO gets folded in though, but for now they still don’t have the higher subscribers that something like Netflix or Hulu or Prime have. I think i know more people subsided to peacock than the PP stream

I've always dreamed of having an electric motorcycle that looks exactly like that model... except with the mini-missile launchers on the front, of course. 😉

Sorta gives that bug like appearance
-
Agreed. And that will most likely mean reusing/re-purposing existing sets. To be honest (and coming from a position of not having watched any of the latest stuff), the show runners need to be replaced. This has nothing to do with the writing; they need someone that's much better at keeping control of the budget and reining in costs.

The Newbie and Short Questions thread
PixelatedShinobi replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
Roger. We found the illustration for Chapter 1 on their Pixiv (along with a TON of girls kissing) but it seems we'll have to find those individual print issues. It's a damn shame the digital distribution was never archived. I'd pay for it, if I could, I really would. Thank you for your help regardless! Look forward to what's coming!- 7141 replies

At least Bandai threw in the fin funnels. Speaking of funnels, it's ridiculous that the price of the new funnel set for the Entry Grade Nu costs more the Nu itself.
