  1. Maybe swapable wings. One set standard wings and one set in high speed mode. No need for any complicated folding mechanism and no need to put slots in the leg of the toy. Graham
  2. Bandai made such a huge improvement on the renewal version. Now if only they could solve the problem of the self loosening hips and shoulders and add hard points on the wings, it would be the perfect VF toy. (Oh, and produce enough so that scalpers don't drive up the price) Graham
  3. I think the color scheme looks much better in fighter mode. Graham
  4. I posted the screen shot of the quest description in my post above. It's a hunters guild quest that's available at Urthr when you are on main mission 7-2. The prize is the YF-19 II blue prints. As mentioned, no circle on the map to show where to go and I've triple checked the item is not in my inventory. Basically I want to know whether the quest description screen shot I posted gives a location name? I spent an hour trying to match up location names on the map with the characters in the description, but no luck. Graham
  5. Thankfully, no problems so far (touch wood) with my two VF-171 CF. But I doubt I will transform them again, they'll stay 1 in fighter mode and 1 in battroid mode. Graham
  6. Acadia definitely needs a separate site or page for their Macross stuff. Their current home page is definitely NSFW. I don't even dare open it at home when the wife and son are around. Heck, I won't even open it on my phone's browser when there's other people nearby. Graham
  7. I've always thought that would be an easy custom build, just use a watermelon Graham
  8. Can anybody help me with this Hunter's Guild quest from Urthr (Madis Glacier). See attached pic of quest description. I've no idea where to go to find the stolen vase. I've tried following Dio's advice, to look for the cave name in the quest description, but I just can't find any Kanji or Katakana that look like any location on the map. I've double checked and the item is not already in my inventory. And there is no green circle on the map showing where to go. I'm stumped and it doesn't help that I've just come back from vacation, so haven't played for 2 weeks, so I'm a bit rusty. Graham
  9. It's yellow trim, not gold. Graham
  10. This is going to look so awesome next too the Isamu YF-29. Graham
  11. Yes, it was in the Macross 30 game and yes, it was flown by Isamu. It was also apparently in the hybrid pack game that came with the second FrontIer movie. Graham
  12. Yes, yes, yes!!! 3 will be mine. Can the YF-30 be far off. Graham
  13. Saw 3 or 4 in model shops in the Mong Kok district here in HK a couple of weeks ago. Seems not difficult to find. Beautiful box art. Graham
  14. Kudos to Bandai for making this kit, even though several of the design choices seem questionable to me. In there end, the more choice of Macross merchandise we have the better for us fans. We should all be happy. Traditional model builders have Hasegawas/Wave, toy fans have Yamatos/Bandai/Arcadia and those who like snap fix transforming kits have this new Bandai kit. I will say it's not for me though. Although I used to buy the old Imai/Arai/Bandai Macross kits back in the 80s and 90s, the only reason I did so was because the Takatoku and Bandai VF-1 toys were not available where I was back then or were too expensive at the time, whereas the kits were easy to buy and relatively cheap. However, being that I'm a toy guy, more than a model guy and I always end up beaking transforming kits after a few transformations, I'll stick with my Yammies, Bandais and hopefully soon to come Arcadias. But for those of you who do like snap fix kits good for you, you now have another choice. Now can't we all get on please. Graham
  15. I'd really like to see an all grey version with low-vis SMS markings as seen in Macross 30. Graham
  16. That's worrying. Could you post some pics? Thanks, Graham
  17. Just back from vacation and my set was waiting for me. No time to watch it until the weekend though. Graham
  18. Here's what I want to see: VF-2SS with SAP. Full Armour for VF-11C. Fz-109A/F. VF-0D Shin and standard grey version. VF-17S Milia All new sculpt VF-0S with reactive armor. VF-5000B. VA-3C. VF-3000. Graham
  19. Just got the following email notice from CD Japan that shipment of the VF-25F Alto has been moved forward: Hi. Thank you for shopping at CDJapan.

  20. Can forgive the parts constantly falling off in the video, the guy obviously didn't glue it together, but it does look a bit froppy. Notice he didn't try to stand it up. Graham
  21. Disappointing that no mention was made of the alternate arm weapon variations. Graham
  22. Picked up one on CD Japan and another two on good old NY. Gotta love NY, they may be a bit more expensive than others, but in my opinion, it's worth it for the peace of mind and I love the option to pay later. They have pretty much become my go-to store for Bandai DX Frontier toys. Graham
  23. Scored one on onCD Japan http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/goods/goods_detail.html?KEY=NEOGDS-90706 Go go go. Graham
  24. Cart got jacked too. Had 2 in my cart, but wouldn't let me check out. Graham
  25. CAD after looks stunning. Graham
