    Most likely what I'll use the Wave 1/100 Destroids for.

    I chose Colonel Tigh, Commander Adama, Daggit and Boxey, Lieutenant Athena, Lieutenant Zac Adama, Lord Baltar, Serina, and Lieutenant Sheba. https://us10.list-manage.com/survey?u=11cccf0d3634bfef8e682daa4&id=22cf02a086&attribution=false New poll for other movie and tv series figures and vehicles. 1/18 Airwolf, Knight Rider, and 1983 V would be awesome.

    When I first watched Macross2, I had never seen Do You Remember Love and probably only robotech's Macross Saga and I enjoyed it. Watch with subs! Later I watched DYRL and realized just how on the rails Macross2 was and just how great it's predecessor was so it lost a lot of it's shine.

    Well, in that case you may like Macross II: Lovers Again because it is really just more of that. In terms of themes, tone, and content it's easily the sequel closest to the original Super Dimension Fortress Macross and Macross: Do You Remember Love? movie. It's a very "safe" sequel that takes relatively few risks and doesn't do much to change up the established formula. It's very like a Gundam sequel in that regard. That lack of innovation is one of the main criticisms Macross fans level at the OVA. The setting hasn't really changed substantially despite 80 years of in-universe time passing. The mechanical designs are, in large part, 90's updated versions of the original designs instead of anything really new or radically different. Well, like I mentioned above it's a very "safe" sequel that's not really taking many risks with its story. It still has the same themes about idols and song as a form of communication, but mixed in with a plot heavily inspired by Roman Holiday and some new themes about nationalism, xenophobia, and journalistic integrity. The one area where it really diverges from the established formula is that its protagonist is a civilian journalist rather than a soldier, which lets the story go in some new directions. I think most fans would agree that it's merely "pretty good" where most other Macross titles are usually "great". Partly because 6 OVA episodes isn't really enough time to fully develop every character, so the love triangle can feel a bit one-sided. It is the title that hews most closely to the original form of the Macross formula, so if that's what you're after you'll probably enjoy it.

    @nightmareB4macross here’s an up to date pic of my display cabinet. This is almost all of my builds since I started getting close to 2 years now. I’m almost out of room already. 🙃 Please excuse the backdrop. My bench is in the basement next to the furnace.

    The toy itself didn’t have any issues. The joints were tight, no stress points, everything fit well. Besides the color, it doesn’t really look accurate to the screen character. I know it’s an older mould. Overall I’m happy it’s in my collection like Jazz and Perceptor but I don’t think it’s something I’ll play around with a lot and it’ll just sit in the display cabinet.

    I took a few better quality phone pics of that old theater scout from last year that I brush painted with lacquers.

    Probably stuck on the same drifting barge along with every VF-31 aside from Hayate, and all of the teased VF-1s Bandai can't be arsed to produce. The fact that we got a re-released Kairos for the 10th anniversary of Delta is frankly a miracle, and absolutely insane to consider that they re-released that mold, rather than any actual named character variant from any other series or movie. That's just freaking depressing to consider. Yeah, sorry to say.. Luca, Chuck, Arad, Mirage, Messer, and even Hikaru, Max and Milia, Bandai thinks you are all less viable products than a CF unit.

    Hahahaha. I posted this on another forum and someone said it looks like the mech is skiing. Hahaha

    Forgot about VF-11MAXL. It's battroid version right? Would be great if they also did VF-17T, and other stuff from M7 like max/miria VF-22S and assorted VF-11, VF-19, VF-17 variants. Probably too much to hope for though.

    If I'm reading it correctly, this is the Blu-ray specs: Audio: Japanese Subtitles: Korean* ※ why the languages are like the only things written in English is beyond me... Source (image on the left side): https://www.miragemall.co.kr/m/product.html?branduid=3739813&xcode=003&mcode=000&scode=&type=P&sort=regdate&cur_code=003&search=&GfDT=a2d3UQ%3D%3D PS: I think the title should be changed. It's not a 25th anniversary release, just the Korean "Macross F: The Movie Steelbook Edition - Lenticular Version".

    Yup it's XTB Abaddon. I like it just fine. Only messed with it for 30mins. Spent more time trying to find a faction symbol I liked. Eventually used a metallic purple waterslide applique. It's not overly heavy like Sov 1.0 and I don't have Sov 2.0. No wish to own Sov 2.0 either.

    What’s your impression? I’ve only owned the G1 version - as a military brat and science nerd, he was always my favorite. I think I have maybe half a dozen sitting MISB.

    I think they've run out of Frontier valks they're interested in reissuing - which is frustrating, because they are one release from finishing Skull Squadron. Where's my Super RVF-25 Revival, Bandai?
  26. JB0
    Frontier's not 25, it only came out in... Oh. Never mind.
  27. F-ZeroOne
    I can take or leave "Evangelion" but having played "NieR: Automata" I can't help but have some intrigue. That teaser is very the latter feeling than the former.
  28. SSK started following Macross F: The Movie Steelbook Edition - Lenticular Version (KR subbed)

    Probably not, it's for Korean market.
