All of this old-school stuff reminds me of the VERY FIRST song I ever asked my parents to buy for me (when I was three years old.) I can't believe they did.
-
Apparently someone doing the early morning programming on the "old school" channel here in Albuquerque was inspired by, or paying tribute to, Harold Ramis as they played this: then this: And they rounded it out with the extended version of this. Can't be a coincidence.

Yeah, it's an ugly, toy-like beige. It sure doesn't feel as high quality as the rest of the Bandai renewals.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Could you take a bunch of pics of the 1D? -
If you can swing it and you have the room, that's cool. I'd like three personally, but not of the same paint scheme (and preferably not paying for them all at the same time.)

Annnnnnnd I should probably check the collectors thread. Sorry everyone.

2 new Variable Fighter Master File books: VF-22 and VF-1 Squadrons
Mommar replied to cool8or's topic in Collectors
Somehow I missed this entire thread. However, just based on other releases in this series if it says due out in March expect to see them in August or September. -
It's entirely possible with the announcement of the Tornado parts a lot of people have taken the plunge on the G and as such they've had to go secure more pieces, thus raising the price.
-
I missed it. The other Master File books have had their own topic and searching for it didn't turn up anything. Admittedly I had very little time to exhaustively search. HLJ has a VF-22 Master File book listed due out in March as well...
-
Hey, did anyone know this was a thing due out really soon? I never saw anything about it posted here. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=MED-BOOK-001859
-
I read it.
-
Not much time left to properly check them if we're only a month out from release.
-
In what way?
-
I wouldn't have mind a 25F/G Tornado Pack release to be honest.
-
Funny, I looked at a lot of F-117A pics before I did my decals as well.
-
Bad fit and color is bad fit and color, I don't care where you're from.
-
Mr K wears some pretty weird clothes sometimes, actually.
-
Dig through this thread for some pictures of 17's we've stickered up to get some ideas. I personally received a few compliments for my Low Viz version but there are some great looking one's that skew closer to the line-art in this thread as well.
-
Alright, that officially brought my guard down. It might wind up being crap but I'm excited.
-
Looking at the photos some more I think I'll be very happy to have a poseable Alto in Gerwalk mode. I feel the contrast of colors works best in that mode.

Last night I was messing around with my Isamu YF-29 and thinking about some of the criticisms it's received for being very "Super Robot" like in many respects. It obviously has a lot of pointy bits hanging off of it and it's bristling with weapons. It got me thinking about the different weapon load-outs on all of the Valks and I realized that it took iterations from the 19, 21/22, 24/25/27 to eventually reach weapon load out parity with the VF-17. Something I found funny considering the 17 is about the opposite of the 29 in look (though no less pointy.) But look at it. The 17 has medium cannons in the forearms, the 29 has the high bore cannons on it's back. The 17 has the smaller cannons mounted towards the cockpit/chest. The 29 has smaller cannons in the wing roots which become the greeble bits on the hips in Gerwalk/Battroid. The 17 and 29 both have their main gun pods. They both also have rear facing light lasers as well. In addition the 17 has internal mini-missiles launchers in the shoulders. The 29 has the same. The 17 has internal room for heavier missiles as well, the 29 instead has more mini-missiles mounted to the legs. And that's before either of them have their Fast Packs mounted, which gives them both a lot more missiles. That's some pretty effective craft when you consider how little some of the other fighters carry. The VF-1 and 11 both only have their small bore lasers, gun pod and wing mounted missiles on their own. They seem positively defenseless. I thought it was interesting one extremely showy Valk and one very utilitarian looking Valk both wind up having very similar loud outs.
-
I really do want one of these. Gerwalk won't be terribly poseable...
-
Other then the rear canopy being more round I'm still not seeing it. Somebody put together a side-by-side and highlight all of these differences because I still can't tell.
-
I want to see the toy. Thanks.
