  1. You asked me 2 weeks ago if we could share subtitles on this forum, I said we no, cannot, it is not our property. When you were reminded again by another forum member 4 days ago you called them a dick. A mod gave you a warning about the language. The rules were stated to you clearly, twice. Mind the content sharing rules, try not to be abusive, and nitpick 40 year old anime until you are blue in the face.
  2. Oh I'd love to see this screening...wow (DYRL on 35mm) Hope someone can go and tell us how it looked!
  3. Is this one from the Advanced Valkyrie series considered the precursor of the VB series?
  4. Wow! I had not seen that Macross Driving game before. The March issue of that magazine is near impossible to find. Hitting the Quead is -20 points...ouch I have the Furoku assembly instructions from July 83 with a similar "driving" game (Perman themed)

    1/55's revisited

    Stupid question-is it just a camera/photographic illusion or are the lower landing gears doors different on the VF-1J? Some look rectangular (L) whilst others round (R)...at least in the crappy photos
  6. Sweet! I totally forgot about this coming out. Its only been what...40 years since Imai did the original transformable kit. This looks incredible, just ordered!!
  7. I'm hoping to see some pre-production art from Kazumi Fujita (Zeta Gundam designer) of the original VF-XS
  8. Lets stay on target and move other discussions to a new thread please, thank you Next comment is to be actual NEWS on some new animation
  9. That is freaking amazing! Love it. Do you have a picture of the 'Before'?
  10. Well the lack of a gunpod of the VT-1 is a a critical plot point in the movie, so it makes sense it is missing as its a trainer only. But you can always pick up a spare DX gunpod or 3 online and arm your Ostrich if the need arises https://paypayfleamarket.yahoo.co.jp/item/z279776678?cpt_s=auc&cpt_m=detail&cpt_n=item&cpt_c=ack
  11. Don't forget to stop by and buy stuff at the con tomorrow! All profits pay for the hosting server costs each year
  12. Can I be super honest here...after 40 years of watching this movie, until I saw the tent description, I did NOT KNOW this was a PARACHUTE from the valkyrie I never questioned 'why would there be a tent' available, just figured it was some sort of emergency supply stored somewhere
  13. Video seems to be in this series, but i cannot find it. Notice the VT-1 with the black jacket and green jacket to the left... I bet it will be posted soon https://macross.jp/mactoma

    My 2 came in a big paper bag. They were in better shape than the big empty box with no padding with the tenjin books. I thought I had learned from the last amazon jp shipping incident but apparently not
  15. Limit 6 per person LOL
  16. 102 on the passenger side tailfin...sorry had to check 😛
  17. I saw July 2024 and my brain said " oh darn, that is next year, so it is long to wait" then realized "HEY! I am in 2024 right now!" doh These look a bit short? I hope they either include full length versions for fighter mode or have the removable option still there, as maybe we could re-purpose an extra set from the angel birds edition I don't like the short tail fin design even if it is cannon I'm dying to display one like the 1/72 Orange Collection one looks

    Got mine today! It definitely has little bits of new, or rarely pre-published art, but if I had a single complaint, the pics are so small!!!! Google Translate/Lens is doing a good job on it being readable.

    Everyone here loves the challenge of searching for something there is just so much material spread out over so many books and magazines. Seto has said they've seen it before, so now I'm really curious where, and what else was in the proximity of the piece. I'm about ready to get one of these and just scan EVERYTHING I have. There is just too much physical stuff, I'm out of room 😛

    I've looked through the Macross EB, Studio Nue EB, TIA 1/2/3/5/6,PM/GB, Miyatake M to Org, and come up empty on that Anti Aircraft gun. I have another Miyatake book somewhere still looking (I am assuming it is a Miyatake drawing...if it is Kawamori maybe its in the Expo book or something newer)? Run across lots of hangar type pics, but not that one, or the city one to the right of it with the gerwalk. There is a diff gerwalk in the city but not that one. Its crazy to still see new art pop up after 40 years. At least I still think its new lol
  21. Stupid question on the 1/48 VF-1 Line In the old days, Takatoku/Bandai/Yamato would put their name, and a reference to Big West and a year molded into the toys (backs of chest plates and underneath wings) I haven't found anything yet on a DX 1/48 VF-1, have you? If it isn't there anymore I wonder what happened. If it is there, I'll go get some new glasses!
  22. Whilst going though some extra inventory to sell off at the Pasadena Comic Con, I ran across the box holding these 2 today-and noticed one little extra difference On the D3 there is no little slot to open the landing gear doors, that was a later addition
