  1. Zettai Live has actually become my second favorite Macross movie after DYRL. My opinion is a bit different. I personally feeI the mecha, including the 303, YF-29 and VF-31AX got a lot of focus and were thought they were featured heavily in the movie. I really enjoyed the mecha combat scenes as well. I think I've watched the movie 4 to 5 times now and spent a lot of time freeze framing and slow motioning the mecha fight scenes. For me the 2 Macross Delta movies are what personally redeemed Macross Delta for me after being hugely disappointed in the second half of the TV series (eps 14 to 26), to the extent that it actually made me lose interest in Macross for about a 5 year period after Delta TV finished airing.
  2. Yay, it just arrived. 😊 I swear I used to have this game years ago, but somehow it disappeared. So, I recently ordered it second-hand from an eBay seller in Japan. Will be playing it on my PS3 when I get home tonight.

    Macross 30

    It's such a shame that Artdink never made any Macross games for the PS4 and PS5. I played MAF/MUF/MTF on the PSP for hundreds of hours back in the day and then Macross 30 and Delta Scramble a lot as well. I feel Artdink were really hitting their stride with Macross 30 and also the PS3 hybrid games especially Last Frontier and DYLR and also Delta Scramble for Vita. We were getting great graphics, improved controls and larger maps compared to the blocky graphics and smaller maps of the PSP games. I can only imagine how good a Macross Artdink game today would be on the PS5. Instead , the only Macross game we get is the sub-standard Macross Shooting Insight......sigh. Oh well, I'm thankful my PS3 still works. Been playing Last Frontier a lot recently and also Delta Scramble on Vita. I think I need to see if my Macross 30 disc still works and hopefully my PS3 still has my old save file.😅
  4. I've only had my Bandai DX VF-1 toys for about 2 years now, I have the VF-1J with GBP armor, Focker VF-1S, Hikaru VF-1S with Strike Packs, Kakizaki VF-1A, VF-1D and VT-1. All are on display. So far no yellowing on any of them. Missiles are sold as a separate box set. Apart from with the recent VF-1J Tamashi Store Limited Edition, which I understand does include 12 x AMM-1 missiles. But none of the other DX VF-1 toys include missiles. The TV style Super Packs are sold as a separate box set. And the DYRL Strike Packs are also sold as a separate box set. The exception is last year's VF-1S Hikaru reissue, which came with Strike Packs that include optional clear covers.
  5. Yeah, it is so fun......I'm so enjoying it. Just unlocked the Extra missions last night. Really enjoyed fighting Hikaru in his VF-1S using an untuned VF-0A....I died. LOL! Turned the tables on him using my tuned VF-31A though....hahah
  6. It's strange no underwing missiles were modeled for the VF-11 in the PS3 Macross 30 game. As Macross 30, the PS3 Hybrid game Macross Last Frontier and the PS Vita game Macross Delta Scramble all have underwing missiles for other VFs, such as VF-1, VF-0, VF-25 etc, so as you said, it's not a matter of processing power for rendering. I'm also going with the theory that Artdink just didn't know what to do about the VF-11 and maybe never asked.
  7. I've recently been re-playing a lot of Macross Ultimate Frontier (PSP - emulated on Android), Macross Triangle Frontier (PSP - emulated on Android), Macross Delta Scramble (PS Vita), Macross Last Frontier (PS3) and Macross: Do You Remember Love (PS1 - emulated on Android). Do they count as retro games? 😅 I need to get a PS2 again, so I can re-play VF-X2 and Mac Plus Game Edition. My PS3 is a slim model, so I think it won't play the PS2 discs and my old PS2 died years ago. 😓
  8. To be honest I would have preferred the other posters rather than the one I got. 😅
  9. Macross 7 is awesome, I absolutely love it, I just finished what must be my 5th or 6th re-watch over the decades, since first watching it on bootleg VHS tapes back in 1994. BOMBA!
  10. I posted a pic of the poster I got from CD Japan a couple of pages back,
  11. Re-watching Macross Dynamite 7 on D+ is making me want the VF-5000 even more. 😅
  12. Heh, I actually just bought a Vita TV so I can play Macross Delta Scramble on a large TV. I haven't set it up yet though. 😅 I'm the same, Macross Delta Scramble is pretty much the only game I want to play on Vita. Actually over the decades most of my consoles were bought specifically to play Macross games. Of course I bought and played other games. I just got my old PS3 set up and it still works after so many years. The only issue was the battery in the controller has died, so I've got a replacement battery on order. Been having fun the last few days playing the Macross Last Frontier PS3 game.
  13. You are correct. Dunno why I thought it didn't.😅 Watched it last night on my PS5 and 4K TV. Finally went to bed at 2am. Apart from a few blurry parts it was fantastic.
  14. Really? If so, that's great. Will save me some money.
  15. Hmm.... PS5 doesn't support 4k. So, I need to buy a 4k Blu-ray player. 😅
  16. Yay, mine just arrived from CDJapan. 😊
  17. Yay, Dynamite 7 finally added to D+ here in Hong Kong.
  18. Was able to jailbreak my Vita last night. Actually, it's pretty easy to follow all the steps on the various videos on YouTube. So, I've now got the DLC I downloaded installed. Having a real blast replaying this game again after many years.
  19. Yeah, it's my Silvie VF-2SS that have the mild yellowing. I think my Nexx is still fine. Need to dig him out from the back of the cabinet to check.
  20. Love the new box art. Hopefully Bandai use a better yellowing-resistant plastic for this re-release, as 3 of my original HMR VF-2SS have suffered some mild yellowing.
  21. Picked up mine from the store yesterday. No time to open it yet though.
  22. The second hand PS Vita 2000 I ordered was just delivered to my office. Just finished resetting it and getting it logged into my Japanese PSN account. Surprisingly Vita content is still available on the Japanese PSN store. However, the digital version of the Delta Scramble game while shown in the Japanese PSN store is listed as not available for purchase. Couldn't find the Delta DLC. I don't have the Macross Delta Scramble game cartridge with me now, it's at home, so will get it set up when I get home tonight and then let's see if at least the free DLC is still available once I have the game loaded in the Vita. If not, then I need to start learning about how the get the .PKG Macross Delta DLC I downloaded from a third party site installed on the Vita.
