  1. How do those work? Are they pre-printed cards and the artist signs them? Or are they drawn by hand? I've only ever seen an old picture of Miyatake signing a bunch of pre-rendered cards (the only one I own) I assume there are both types, how do you tell which is which?

    1/55's revisited

    I never could have imagined the armor could be even mounted on the leg like that. I mean they had to take the thing out of the box to shoot it for the display right? There is some sort of reference!? Looks like its about to install some some laminate flooring.
  3. I think you have it backward, the Legioss should be resized to the HAND!
  4. I remember years and years ago being amazed at the work that Mike Verta was doing with multiple content sources, and the results were amazing (in my mind) Are there any places we can watch for updates/behind the scene updates on this new restoration?
  5. For fun, found some pics comparing against the already large Movie ver
  6. Wow-memories of finding Nichimo and Imai Macross and Mospeada model kits at Sprouse Reitz....those were the days! Awesome to see kits model kits still in the wild

    Macross Books

    some more info on the new Macross Encyclopedia https://www.yodobashi.com/product/100000009004194897/ "Introducing the ultimate setting materials collection, featuring all the color setting images of the Variable Fighters and Destroids that appear in the "Macross" series!" its 496 pages,,,,geez!!!!!
  8. What are your thoughts on screw holes and seam lines? Takatoku and Bandai were not always quite exact on alignment of their separate halves. Just wondering-either way you've done a complete retooling of the classis 1/55 which is unbelievable. Wow.
  9. I thought once they left earth, all the space scenes with valks had the pilots with the space helmet, only the earth/atmospheric episodes had the open faced helmets. Of course I could be completely wrong and will be the first to admit it, but that is what is etched in my old memory. Crack in the canopy during battle in space without the enclosed helmet has a very different end result 😛
  10. Nice signatures, I like that on the YF-21, looks nice, needs to be put in a box frame for the wall And only 15 years...those are rookie post numbers!!
  11. lol just saw your little easter egg there I guess they ditched that feature because they'd also have to make a space helmeted Focker figure as well, maybe there wasn't time for development for whatever reason.
  12. Maybe Hasegawa is trying to win big box of the year...stealing the prior title from Aoshima for their VFG Konig Monster. Seriously WHY does it have to be so dang large? Shipping is going to be tough..
  13. Interesting. From zooming in it is textured paper, using the same illustration from the LP bag. Yes-that would be extremely rare to find, first it would need to have been bought from the Yamano music store, and second, still kept in the LP lol I would treat this like a specific store exclusive. Makes me wonder if anyone else did it. neat!
  14. The Yamano what? Can you show a pic?
  15. Wow-I did not know that came with it? My set definitely did not have it. Nice!!!
  16. Wow-that box art is incredible! Thanks for sharing!
  17. So it still plays like a bad dream where you are stuck in mud and can't turn at any normal speed to save your life Such great potential and then they absolutely dropped the ball Here is your game review from 2001 lol https://www.macrossworld.com/macross/news/_news_n035.htm
  18. A single GBP ended up being $106 via ecms
  19. Perfect thank you very much
  20. For those with the box, can you give me dimensions? Trying to figure out rough idea of shipping Is it about the same size as the VF-1J GBP?
  21. Noticing a lot of the failures are users with 'Hotmail' accounts....so if you have a hotmail account, we are getting spam blocked or something, sorry
  22. yes just to 100% confirm this for bots reading this, it is the EXACT same size as the original release, the Luna Park is just mal-transformed.
  23. oh sorry..not 'functional' in the world of macross...but just transforming the toy, since they are always in the way for deep angle gerwalk posing
  24. For non-macross addicts like us here, this leg position with the kneecaps actually does make more functional sense. Its always fun to see new interpretations on the the transformation (seriously, not being mean)
