  1. Check Fuke's knee joints for cracks and also check where the plastic front forks of the bike connect to the red plastic of the frame, as I've found cracking there on mine. Graham
  2. Posted in the 'Wanted' forum, but thought I'd post here as well. Would like to buy just the Mars Gallant Pistol that comes with the Toynami MPC Cyclone / Beagle Mospeada toy (see attached picture). Just looking for the pistol only, as mine was missing from my MPC Rand Cyclone, recently purchased from ebay Willing to pay US$25 + shipping for the pistol. If anybody wants to part with their Mars Gallant, please PM me. Easy 25 bucks Graham
  3. Keeping a close eye on this. What color will you be painting it? Your head is Fuke's red type, right? Graham
  4. And anyway, we already have a remake/ retelling of the TV series, with gorgeous yet to be surpassed animation. It's called 'DYRL'. Graham
  5. And I'm fairly sure the toy and model sponsors, who are critical for sponsorship of the anime production would be less than keen on revisiting the VF-1 yet again, as its been done to death
  6. While a remake would no doubt be graphically very pretty, and may even feature some story changes ala Macross the First, I'd still rather see an all new Macross anime, with a new story, new characters and new mecha. Thankfully, Kawamori doesnt seem to have been infected by Hollywood remake-itis so far. Graham
  7. Are they taking a break again? Haven't found episode 19 yet. Graham
  8. True, the only justification for giant humanoid mecha is to look cool and sell lots of toys and model kits While I may not like the Gundam design aesthetic, the Gundam Unicorn anime definitely is visually very cool. Graham
  9. Just saw a VF-25F renewal in Tai Yuen Street, Wanchai, which is near my office, in the toy shop on the right side of the street (I forget the shop's name). Price was just under HK$2k. Graham Can somebody remind me when are the renewal Super parts supposed to be out? Its so long ago that I placed the preorder that I've forgot. Graham
  10. Be nice if somebody could do a port of Scrambled Valkyrie or the Macross Plus arcade game for Android. Heck, I'm sure current phones could easily handle MPGE or VFX2. Graham
  11. Good point, I haven't checked the targetting scope yet. Will do so when I get home tonight. The ebay seller I bought from was: man_of_action_figures_inc Will be worrying about the targeting scope be missing, until I can get home to check. Graham
  12. Emailed Toynami, Robotech.com and also the ebay seller. Let's hope one way or another I can get the Mars Gallant Pistol. Graham
  13. Occasionally you do get bad castings, which fracture easily. But then again, it could just be a case of the guy in the video using too much brute force. Graham
  14. The wings of a VF are for atmospheric flight and of course are not used for maneuvering in space, which is acomplished by the vernier jets located around the body and on the wingtips on the VFs. The same thing about maneuvers killing the pilot could also be said about Gundam At least Macross now has ICS. Graham
  15. Seem to recall we have had this discussion more than a few times over the years. Personally, I'd say no. The original is a classic and should be left alone, warts and all. I'd much rather see a new Macross series or OVA rather than remaking the original. Graham
  16. I'd love a top down Macross scroller on my Android. Graham
  17. Yeah, IIRC I also paid about HK$1,140 when the VF-25F Renewal was first released. And although it's still pretty easy to find, price has gone up quite a bit. Graham
  18. It was on at the cinemas here recently, but I passed, as it got promototed more as a juvenile/teen film for the Twilight crowd. Is that not the case then? Graham
  19. Nah, we had one member here also reporting a breakage of the diecast hip bar. Graham
  20. Yep, the bottom gallant pistol is the one that's missing. The figure, bike, Gallant rifle are all sealed under the top clear plastic tray. But not the Gallant pistol. For some weird reason the cut out for the Gallant pistol is on the external part of the clear top plastic tray with nothing covering it or holding it in. Graham
  21. Had the game, sold it. I never bought a Wonderswan though. I also bought a Gameboy, just to play the Macross 7 game, but sold them as well. Graham
  22. What are you making it out of? Graham
  23. Nope, no sign of it. I searched inside the book-box, in my bag, around my office desk, which is where I took the plastic tray out of the box and put it in my bag and no sign of the H90 pistol Stupidly, it seems that the cutout for the H90 pistol is on the outside of the plastic tray and not covered at all, making it easy for this part to fall out. Or really it was never there, as I don't remember seeing it when I first opened the flip cover of the book box Probably not much use to complain to the seller, as it was sealed and obviously mint and packed very well. Likely a factory packing error. Anyone wanna sell me a Toyname/Beagle H90 pistol? Graham
  24. And selling lots of model kits........ Graham
  25. I saw quite a few in Ins-Point last week also, but yes be prepared to pay over HK$2K. Graham
