  1. Saw that on the news on TV 2-3 nights ago. Interesting, but far from conclusive.
  2. Just to take issue with the title of the thread, but most of those VF100s listed in the poll are not actually confirmed yet. The only confirmed releases are VF-25F, VF-25S, VF-25G, VF-19Kai & Armored VF-25F. Even Bandai has said that the multitude of VFs shown on early publicity posters is a wish list, not a certainty.
  3. Ozma's my favorite male character in Frontier. I'd love a movie about him. Graham
  4. I'm guessing it's only a few more days until the VF-25G is released. Graham
  5. Yes, given that the crotch is a seperate removable peice, used only for battroid mode, there is absolutely no reason why the leg position could not be changed. Graham
  6. I think the tradional model builders would disagree with you. Graham
  7. The new hobby mags come out in a day or two, so hopefully they will have some new pics. The Shizuoka Hobby Show seemed to be priomarily a show case for the Bandai's new Frontier model kits. I'm sure they will show off the Frontier toys at the Tokyo Toy Show in mid-July. Graham
  8. Heh, I thought that trailer looked pretty good actually. Graham
  9. Technically, it would be a v3.0 Yamato YF-19. Or you could say a v2.0 1/60 YF-19. Anyway, it could possible happen in some form, but if it does, don't expect it too soon. My biggest gripe with the present 1/60 YF-19 is the loose joints. The gullet doesn't bother me too much. Of course, if it does get redone, I would like to see some chest locking, opening leg weapon bays, more secure leg FAST Pack attachment and a smaller gullet. Graham
  10. Still no news of when of if this movie is going to be shown in this part of the world. We got all previous Trek movies here, so surprised there's been no news of this one. Graham
  11. Season 2 just started showing here last night. First episode was OK. Didn't really like the Scottish boss lady terminator (can't remember her name). Graham
  12. I freely admit it. When I first saw the Unicorn in closed mode, I was like wow, a decent looking Gundam and they've actually had the courage to break away from the V-fin and tradtional Gundam type face.................................but no, then I discover that the head opens and .........yawn......same ol' Gundam face and V-fin. Graham
  13. Thanks Renato. Your interpretation is exactly what I've always thought. The anmation does clearly show it as a standard gunpod most of the tim, acceopt when the adaptor is fitted. I'd forgotten about the games. I agree it is odd (and always greatly disappointed me when playing), that the VF-17's gun was a beam weapon. Graham
  14. Hmmm.............interesting question. The answer is not as much as I used to. These days, I probably rewatch Macross 7 in it's entirety once every 2 to 3 years. Same goes for Plus, Zero and II. SDF TV series, probably once every 4 to 5 years. DYRL, usually once a year. When Frontier was airing, I watched each episode at least 6 times, some as many as 12 times! Now, I occasionally watch an episode or two now and again, but no plans to watch the whole series all the way through for at least a couple of years, as I've watched each episode so often. Need to let it fade in my mind a bit first. Graham
  15. No............remaking it as an action movie.....Grrrrrr. Graham
  16. The Unicorn Gundam is actually one of the few Mobile Suits that I actually like the design of, but only in it's closed mode. I really don't like the open AKA 'diseased running sores' look. Graham
  17. I have the Joyride Studios Colonial Viper and Cylon Raider toys, which people have said are based on old model kits, but I'm not sure. OK, toys. size is similar to the old Starwars Action Fleet toys, but quality is not quite as good. The Vipers wings are constantly falling off and so are the tripple thrusters. Also, the two toys are not really in scale with each other. Graham
  18. I'm cautiously optimistic about a Robert Rodriguez Predator movie. Just have to wait and see. But a Cliffhanger remake!!!! WTF are they thinking? Graham
  19. Heh, I've gotta see that movie, the Youtube clip is hilarious. Graham
  20. Hey, leave Roger Corman alone. Death Race 2000 is one of the best dystopian future movies of the 70s. Graham
  21. If they released DX toys of the VF-25's from 'All That VF', I'd probably buy them. Graham
  22. Yamato could do a better 19 now if they wanted to and certainly reduce the gullet size. However, the 19 is one of the most difficult VFs to create as a transforming toy and strike a good balance between fighter and battroid modes. Too much anime magic in Kawamori's original line art. Graham
  23. Guppy, Nice to see you back. Haven't seen you in these parts for ages (years?). Really, wait for the Armoured Ozma, it will have the improved (longer) neck and improved (straighter) head lasers. The first release of the standalone Ozma VF-25S has a neck that is far too short (doesn't look good in battroid mode and warped too thin head lasers. If you really can't wait, get the VF-25F Alto, VF-25G Michael or RVF-25 Luca, they are good to go. Graham
  24. Pass, clear stuff just doesn't do it for me. Graham
  25. Definitely prefer DYRL, for the gorgeous animation and improved character and mecha designs. Graham
