He doesn't get scared easily by TV. He watched the first Transformers movie on DVD and was OK with that and I let him watch cartoons with a fairly high level of violence, like Clone Wars, Gatchaman and Voltes 5, all of which he loves. Graham

Just wondering if ROTF is suitable for 5 year olds? My son is begging me to take him to see it when opens next week. Not sure I'll enjoy sitting through two and a half hours of mindless Bay action featuring butt ugly bots though. Graham

I was thinking it would be great if they can recreate the missions from VF-X2 and M3 and even add some new missions. Graham

Avoid at all costs. Graham

1967 Spiderman forever, it's what I grew up watching and you can't beat the theme song, plus it gets very trippy and psychadelic at times. Graham

As a Brit and huge fan of the Typhoon, I just think it would be increadibly cool if the US ended up buying hundreds of Eurofighters after the closure of the F-22 line, to bolster their A2A capability. Of course, it would never happen, but if it did, I would laugh my ass off for days. Graham

Here's the scan of a single page article from a Hong Kong gaming magazine I picked up yesterday. If anybody can translate the Chinese text, please let us know if it reveals anything new or interesting. Graham

Actually, I did keep my two Revy Regults, but they are the only Revys left.

Yep, I really did throw all my Revys in the trash (YF-19, YF-21, VF-1A Hikaru & VF-1S Focker). I can be brutal sometimes. Graham

I may be remembering wrongly, but I seem to recall an episode after Mac Quarter went pirate and Ozma and Cathy were exploring a wreck????? Graham

Heh, so it's not a five-year mission to explore strange new worlds. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no man has gone before? Graham

That's a matter of indidual opinion and personal taste. Personally, I prefer the GNUs. IMO, the Revys being made of PVC look cheap and the joints are actually the major turn off for me as they are visually unappealing. I think the GNU has about 70-80% of the articulation of a Revy, but is made of much better materials and looks much nicer. Again, just personal taste. I bought both the Revys and GNUs when they came out, but the Revys have all since been consigned to the trash, where as the GNUs are still in my display cabinet. Graham

You mean the head lasers on the VF-25F, VF-25S and VF-25G (laser, singular)? Or the antenna on the RVF-25? Graham

Heh. Just looking at the second pic again and I realised those weird looking things with tabs sticking out of the back are the unfinished feet..........LOL! Graham

You guys can talk all you want about how "uber-awesome" or whatever a 1/2000 scale SDF-1 would be, but realistically how many of you are going to fork over US$550 plus shipping for this? Yes, I know back in the bad old dark days of the mid-to-late 90s' many of us (myself included), didn't bat an eyelid at handing over a grand for a mint or near mint 1/55 Strike Valk, VE-1 or VT-1. But in these tougher economic times, especially as many of us have mortgages, kids education fees and a dozen other damn expenses to pay off, how many of you will really get this, or even be able to justify getting this to your spouse. Graham

Heh, haven't played MAF for ages. Completed the Macross Plus, Macross 7 and Macross Frontier stages, getting S on most and SS on some. Still a few without S though. I just never got started on the SDF Macross stages. For some reason, I just have no mood to fly the VF-1. Graham

Need larger scans of the magazine article, so we can see what is the release date. And yes, I am so getting this! Graham

I like the 1st and 3rd pic. I really love the look of the Armored in fighter mode. Actually, I like it in all 3 modes, but fighter is my favorite. In the 2nd pic, showing the side of the lower leg, what's all that stuff hanging out of the back? Is it the attachment points for connecting the fighter mode to the display stand? Graham

I will pass on the Sheryl doll. It's taken long enough for my family to accept my VF collecting. If I satrting collecting girlie dolls, they would probably disown me. Graham

IMO, 65cm long which is the size of the 1/2000 prototype in cruiser mode is just too damn big and not practical for display. I'd much rather the toy be 40cm to 45cm long maximum and sell for not more than US$300. US$250, would of course be even better. Honestly at 65cm long and US$500+ Yamato are really limiting their own sales. Graham

Yes!!!!! Just checked the links Kresphy posted and I see the VF-25F with Super Packs and a VF-25S with Armoured pack!!!!! Also a VF-19P.........nice! Graham

Yes!!!!!!!!! Now let's hope we get the Super & Armoured Packs for the VF-25 this time and the Frontier missions from the second half of the Macross Frontier anime, as the first PSP game only featured Frontier missions up to about half way through the anime. Glad this is coming out on the PSP, as I rarely have time for console games these days, but can still play handhelds when travelling to and from work. Any news on release date. Graham

I'm pretty neutral about Flashback 2012. I neither like it nor dislike it. To be honest, it's just a music video using mostly recyled footage. The new footage showing the VF-4, Megaroad and post-SW1 Minmay, Hikaru & Misa is awesome, but it's too damn short. Rather than a music video, if BW had expanded the new footage to a minimum 30 miniutes OVA, chronicling the events after SW-1 leading up to the launch of the Megaroad, I would have been much more impressed. Graham

Pics please. Graham
