Picked up one of the Signed Tenjin Comic Con 2023 books currently on ebay. Its a very nice addition, with a decent amount of explanation about the series and movies, and notes on various projects Tenjin has been involved with. I've never gotten into deep into Frontier or Delta at all, but even with the vast majority of the book on those 2 series, going through the pictures was quite enjoyable! Definitely recommended, even for the casual fans of the new series like myself.

What the heck is an Ultimate Edition? Need to know more please... -
I had never noticed the back engines slide in-interesting approach to not having them hang down so low Could you get a shot of the engines outlets? I hope they are not just square and share some angulations! I always loved this line art

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
Shawn replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
looking pretty dang close to the original!

Since this is Otakon, US based, we'll only see items from Macross Flashback and up, no SDF-1 for us here.

The 'Hey look at this really cool model build I saw' post
Shawn replied to Shawn's topic in Model kits
Yes-this is the same modeler that was posted last year in this thread with the regult! wonder what is going to be next! -
Otakon on left, prev display from a couple months ago on right So is the pic on the left a camera/lighting thing, or do you think they changed to a deeper blue on this version? I honestly can't see any differences between the 2

That looks really good! 3D Printing has really allowed customizers to do anything they can think up! If you add a couple boosters to the legs, they'll look like leg armor as well to complete the setup

can we just say again how awesome it is...to click the where can I buy at the bottom And it takes you to the Tamashi Nations Amazon page where I can order it? (bit later than the 8/11 release, but it could be an early Christmas) https://www.amazon.com/TAMASHII-NATIONS-Macross-Phoenix-Hi-Metal/dp/B0BX2L8X9G?ref_=ast_sto_dp $150 is equivalent to a Japan buy + international shipping

There are a few signed from SDCC 23 on ebay, but going 2x-3x the original price
-
No, not me...at the average $30-$50 each I'd be broke from the volume I just appreciate from afar!
-
I think it looks pretty good (Wave Left/New Interpretation right) Looks a little more Gundam-ish style to me

I've been following a customizer on YJ auctions for a while now-here are many of these figures that are painted. So many of the details are lost in the mono-chromatic molds, but if you add a dash of color these figures really rock! Anyways here is the picture dump...hope you enjoy them too!

I also found it in this version (climbing the tower) And bottom right corner here! Just thought it was cool to find this out after all these years

Imai's Robodatchi line from the early 80's has a couple surprises, I just found an new one this morning, and it got me going down the rabbit hole a bit. When the Macross Package Art book came along, it mentioned the Robodatchi Pit-In kit-which is a recolorized Macross factory) So while the Factory was a direct copy of the factory, other kits were 'inspired'...back when Gerwalk wasn't a copyrighted term but a general term LOL Here is the Air Combat box. A Gerwalked variety of kits. And the Enterprise variant And then, not to beat around the bush anymore, they flat out called one Space Gerwalk The new discovery today was there is a VF-1S Battroid snuck into the lineup This VF-1S is in the Space Shuttle kit (among others). It is directing/controlling the grappler arms in this pic at top Here is a painted version

Anyone possible remember/know which magazine this came from? Its a pic of the original Imai molds (top half) That is a Monster in the center.. Yamato GBP was out...Fronteir F...Yamato Weathering Dengeki or HJ?

I like the Legioss in battroid/soldier mode, the fighter version needs a bit of work I wonder if it is significantly cheaper for them to get a Robotech II license than the Robotech one...they still get the Legioss design right?

I believe that one is French (France) Well...as the PRIMARY language...that sure is spanish on the secondary phrases...I've only seen it in person once and it was referred to as the valk from france nice to learn something new! That is in super nice condition, surprised it hasn't been sold yet! I confirmed with my local 1/55 guy, and he agrees its the only one with the single large styro

I think my entire 500 plastic model kit collection cost as much as the LEFT ROW in your collection does now 😛
