    1/55's revisited

    Shawn replied to kanata67's topic in Toys

    Are there mold differences or just sticker/painting variations? Its super hard to tell inside the bags! My amateur eyeballs don't see anything other than sticker locations/designs, give me some clues!

    this looks open ah...I think you mean this? instead of every 10s I'll make it every 10 weeks lol, that'll help for sure.

    Can you provide me a specific search example and what you are wanting to see vs what you actually see? Do you mean you can't do more than X number of searches in a 30s or something? That might be configurable in the setup

    Looking back at the Yamato, I do think the DX neck is an improvement....well maybe lol Would need to recheck the Arcadia ver.

    I thought they forgot a piece for the head/neck, but that appears to be the design. From some angles it seems to be an abrupt drop off.

    Posting here mostly because its Macross II related, but I've never seen this art book before, wonder if it might be included in the Animeigo set too? Love the pre-production stuff https://www.ebay.com/itm/316687646572 oh.looks like the release date is tomorrow, neat! https://japanese-creative-books.com/product/illustration/art-of-battle-koichi-ohata-robot-chronicle/

    Just resin kits for the Tread. Imai did a prototype but they had financial issues and it was never released-see the Mospead thread and search for "Imai"

    Thanks for posting the assembly video, it looks like a fun build. I'm amazed no glue for something that large. I understand some of the dimensions aren't ideal holding to the line art, but I still like it a lot, just as there are many variations on every release of the basic VF-1. I can't wait for the Nousjadeaul-Ger which HAS to be coming up next-in DYRL style to match the Quead.

    I appreciate the effort in calculating the actual number of pixels X*Y used as a measurement for acceptable picture sizes to post(it is pretty funny and ingenious )but the forum software is not that smart. We can only put constraints on width and height with simple limits. Otherwise someone could post a 10 pixel wide pic but have it 190000 pixels tall and still be accepted...and that would involve a LOT of vertical scrolling to get to the next post Shawn

    Just to assist here- As camera quality has greatly increased over the years, the picture sizes have too. Remember all the user posted content on this site sits on the one little server-just a teeny thing tucked away in some corner of some datacenter. We are have about 160GB of pictures on the server over the last 20 years, with a big increase lately due to better tech. So this is just a simple 'ask' from the staff to try and limit super large pics for non Macross items to reasonable sizes and quantities. Your assistance is greatly appreciated!! The Management

    Found an ad in a recent magazine 80's Magazine win which advertises the July 1st 1984 DYRL preview screening and how to apply to the lottery for it. The follow up to this lottery promo was this letter which was presented to one of the winners. Pretty neat to make the connection of an offer and a redemption from 40 years ago

    For the casual browsers here, most of those customs are made with Yamato 1/60 toys as the bases, and are featured in a series of color magazines, I think there are 5 or 6 volumes now https://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/29133-macross-books/page/34/#comment-1592289

    yeah-maybe they were Macross fans and figured the booster goes on the top like a fast pack

    And here is my 'Not going to turn this into an auction post' part 2....did you catch how much the Mospeada show promo kit went for? Most impressive! Adding it here for historical purposes From Google Translate 機甲創世記 モスピーダ タツノコプロ 新番組企画書 設定 セル画 写真 コピーイラスト ロボット ヒーロー 今井 イマイ プラモデル Armored Armor MOSPEADA Tatsunoko Productions New Program Proposal Setting Cel Pictures Copy Illustrations Robot Hero Imai Plastic Model The new program proposal is 29 pages long and has some wrinkles, but no visible tears. 11 cels are hand-drawn. The illustrations on the back seem to be copies, but some have no illustrations. Approximately 26.5cm x 36cm. Most are stuck together. The photos are approximately 12cm x 8cm, There are 41 types, total of 107 sheets.

    Recently picked up a doujinshi with a nice Mospeada Art Piece

    The video was posted, Fujimi starts at around 20, and after watching this (auto-translate closed captioning!) I feel really positive about this new design, he really seems to care about all the dimensions and balance of the vf-1. I was very surprised at the amount of depth they are considering in the very small design.

    Not my book-from an auction, but that thing is thick!!
  19. Shawn
    Anything neat in the included book?

    It's like some sort of fever hell dream John Carpenter's Macross The Horror? Does Bodolza knock 3 times on your door with a rusty fishing hook?

    Now I need to find where the heck I placed my order from! Can't wait to see a few preview pics.
  22. Shawn
    Wow!!! VF-11 with booster and the Milia kit are very unexpected! The pricing on the Milia kit is surprisingly high, but then I see it is a Resin kit. Very surprising.
  23. Shawn
    Yep-the hosting company was great with the tech support and quick clone. https://www.tier.net/

    testing testing

    Shawn replied to Chas's topic in Test forum

    making sure I can post a pic

    Thanks for the patience, we are back! I noticed the server was acting a little funky, did a disk check and the smart alarm said 24hrs before failure So did a fresh backup sync, had the hosting company replace/clone the disk, and now we are back online again. The disk failed after 7 years running with 128TB written, the TBW endurance was listed at 120TB, so that was spot on. I'm quite amazed. Shawn
