    For the Hunters Guild subjugation quests, it would be great if you could include the name of the dungeon or base where you need to go in the 'Clear Conditions' part of the table. Graham

    Excellent, count me in for one. Graham

    Now I can't speak for Kawamori or Bandai, but I doubt Kawamori actually personally worked on the design. What happened with Yamato is that he would come in for a meeting , which often had to be booked weeks or months in advance (he's a very busy guy) and he would offer his advice, comments, suggestions etc on a toy design and he had final say on whether anything should be changed. Yamato would then make said changes and another appointment would be booked with Kawamori to seek his approval. Wash, rinse and repeat as necessary. I imagine things are much the same with Bandai.

    What's this talk about lack of musical variety in Macross? Does not compute!?!?!? Graham

    There was nothing wrong with the old drones IMO. Graham

    I've had no contact with my friend, the CEO (former CEO?) of Yamato for a few months now. No reply to emails or text messages Graham

    It really is a beautiful VF. Graham

    Damn auto correct on phone. Should have been "battroid", not "bathroom" Although my Valks do often accompany me to the bathroom (thought that was normal behaviour for a Macross fan Heck, I've had Valks sleep, on the pillow next to me before Graham

    I paid HK$1,050 for the VF-19S and HK$899 for the VF-1A movie Canon fodder. Graham

    Another thing to consider, Acadia probably had to pay Tenjin a fairly substantial fee for the design. As much as Tenjin loves Macross, he's still a commercial artist, not a charity. The negotiation and cost of licencing rights with Big West may also factor into the cost. There's many unknowns to consider before people start complaining about the cost. I personally like the design and I'm going to buy 2, one to display in fighter and one in bathroom, to support Arcadia and support the 30th anniversary of Macross. Graham

    All the extra multi-color tampo printing does actually add to the production cost you know. Acadia doesn't have magic tampo printing faeries that magically print all that multi colour printing on free of charge. Also, yes I guess this will likely be a limited quantity collectors item. I suspect one of the reasons towards the end that Yamato reduced the amount of tampo printing on its Macros toys was to reduce costs. Graham
  12. Graham
    The extra cost us probably at least partially due to the large amount of Tampo printing required. Graham

    Latest haul tonight, from walk-in store buy. That takes me to three VF-19S now. Such a beautiful VF. Graham

    Looks great! Put me down for 2. Graham

    Just wondering does anybody actually bother to use the grenades and mines? I've never used them, seem a bit pointless really. Graham

    Personally, I don't like the Bluray version, there are many times when it looks too grainy. Graham

    I sincerely doubt Arcadia will change much if anything on the VF-1 v.2 mold. We might get a minor tweak here and there, but I doubt even that. I think the gimmicks referred to most like just mean the existing gimmicks that were on the Yamato v.2. So Acadia will just likely issue the v.2 in a new box. That's my best guess. Graham

    Lucky here in Hong Kong no import tax at all. Graham

    And to the original topic author, about the thread title we usually just refer to him as Tenjin around here. Graham

    I understand why they did the ankle panel and also the joint below the intake that alows the thigh to pivot to the side for greater poseability, but in that Hikaru DYRL VF-1S battroid pic it just looks odd. And yes, the fighter mode nose is off. Graham
  21. Graham
    Topic closed as we already have a topic on this. Graham
  22. Graham
    Yeah, I know that trick, used it many times for quests hunting other mecha, Q-Rau, Q-Rhea etc. But I can't even find a single damn VF-1S anywhere. It's like they've all gone on holiday. I've had this quest sitting uncompleted for ages now. Graham
  23. Graham
    Really not liking the joint below the intake or the moveable panel on the inner lower leg. Both look weird in battroid mode. Graham
  24. Graham
    Anybody knows where VF-1S spawn? I've got a hunter's guild quest to kill 10, but can't find any anywhere. Well, I found some in a cave or base, but killin g them doesn't count towards that Hunter's Guild Quest Graham

    I still have the instructions at home. Can scan then, but it won't be until Friday. Graham
