The unit I want to see most in a sequel is Ozma's VF-25S with Armored Pack. Graham

Kawamori............not smiling. No coffee that morning? Or not happy with what he's holding? Graham

I would have prefered a DX 1/60 VF-171 Nightmare Plus rather than Macross Quarter, but oh well, I'll still buy a quarter toy. Graham

You can order them from either HMV Japan or Amazon Japan. Graham

Fot those like myself that are not skilled modellers, I'd definitely recomend the stickers. They look good and stick very well. Graham

Yep, the legs are still in transition from fighter to Gerwalk. You can clearly see the dark triangle, behind the intake, which means the legs are not completely straight yet. Graham

The official Macross Frontier vol.2 (eps 2-4) DVD/BluRay is out for ages already. I received mine from Amazon Japan at least 2-3 weeks ago. I think your post is a typo and you meant vol.3, which contains eps 5-7. Graham

I for one never really liked the idea of posting new pics only on the first page. Most people including myself check the toy threads several times daily for updates anyway and I don't really like having to check back to the first page all the time just for new pics. By all means new pics an be posted on the first page, but they should also be posted in the in current posts. Graham

Hopefully, once the Macross Chronicles gets done with the three trillion pages on the VF-1, we will eventually get some VF-25 pages with detailed stats. I too love stats, as detailed as possible. Agree, comparing is fun. Graham

Very cool. Graham

Milia's red VF-17S is really a blast. It has really rapid fire micro-missile launchers. Missile capacity is limited, but they fire off and reload really quick. Graham

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Despite being parts-formers, with every new pic posted these are looking better and better than the 1/60 DX line. Graham

One more thing I just noticed and really dislike. See the head in this pic. The red and black lines should flow smoothly into the matching red and black lines on the back plate. Instead the head curves down too much and there is a dip or gulley between the head and the back plate. Not good. Graham

I'm a little bit worried about that peg I see sticking out of the underside of the wing glove in battroid mode. I guess it's for locking the wings in place in fighter mode, but it looks a little too thin to me. Hopefully not prone to breakage. Graham

Good, increases the chance of a MAF sequel then. Graham

Nice, the 1/100 line is looking sweet. Assuming the quality, materials and detailing is good, I can see these getting more of my money than the chunky 1/60s. Now bring on the VF-171. Graham

What is this other matter you keep referring to? Curious. Graham

What site are you getting the pic from? I notice the sniper rifle doesn't have the pop up optical sight, or at least it's not shown. Graham

Note, with the Super and Armored packs the wing root guns have extra armor on top of them, which is why they look bigger than the unarmored guns of the model kit. Graham

Now that's what I like to see, VF-25G, RVF-25, Ghost and extremely cool SMS base. I hope those bases are sold seperately, so I can get one for each Valk. I hope somebody takes a close up pic of the sign, so we can see if any release date is mentioned. Graham

Not a huge Trek fan, but enjoyed watching TOS as a kid back in the 70s', in fact it was a 'must watch' back then as a little kid. I'll also watch TNG and DS9 if they are on TV, but don't have time for any of the other series. Don't like the franchise well enough to buy DVDs or other merchandise though. However, I do usually go to the cinema to watch the movies. With all that said, I must say I do quite like the latest photos of the new movie. One question, why does Spock look angry? Isn't he supposed to be emotionless? Graham

I was travelling home on the train last night after having a few drinks with one of our suppliers who is visiting from Sweden. I pulled out my PSP and started playing MAF to pass the half hour train journey. The next station, the doors open and this youngish Chinese guy (in his 20s' I guess), boards the train and sits down next to me on the left. He also takes out his PSP, turns it on and starts playing. I glance over and down to check out what he's plaing and it's also MAF! He was playing Frontier era using the VF-25F, while I was playing M7 era using the VF-17S. Pretty cool to actually find somebody else playing MAF. I probably should have asked him if he wanted to try a game together, but felt a bit weird at asking a total stranger. Anyway, he got of the train a couple of stops later. Graham

Gotta agree, music in Zero was pretty dull and weak IMO. Can't remember any of it enough to hum any of the tunes, this despite owning the OST CD and listening to it quite a lot. On the other hand, I find Kanno's work on Mac Plus and Frontier fantastic and extremely memorable. And yes, music in 7 was also amazing. Graham

I'm also hoping these will be heavily panel lined and tamp printed. Graham

A prototype kit of the red Vajra was shown at a hobby show several months ago (at least I think it was a kit, not a toy). However, since then there has been no further news or appearance. Graham
