    Your post made me think how much easier it is for young collectors today to keep up/acquire Macross merch, especially the toys, for their collections when compared to back in the day when this whole Macross thing started...the internet sure beats mail-order!

    LOL...seriously I'm not that into the skylark stuff....unless it is a lunchbox....

    I guess I'm not a Macross nut....

    I have yet to open any of my Delta VFs.....including the latest AX....so mine are currently all free of any QC issues!

    Just the one's appearing in the movie... I guess what I am saying if Bogue's was "04"...and you were to get all the rest through "06"...it'd look obvious you are missing one of the AX's

    Is "06" the last member of the squadron? At least it won't look odd when you have all of 01-05....right?

    Not into collecting the music, but I do have the original BGM sets.....remember buying them from Books Nippon back in the day

    The arm packs will essentially just be hanging on via friction....however, there should be no issue with them mounted to the VF-1 in either gerwalk or battroid mode
  12. jvmacross
    Indeed...was kidding...lol
  13. jvmacross
    Yeah...it would be nice, especially if you are collecting the skylark items....but it is one of those life time searches that may not end with completing the set...good luck!

    Ok!

    Yes, they seem to be characterizing the change to the leg tabs as a "fix"....I am highly doubtful that many of their customers were citing this as a major problem that needed correction, which means that this was something likely pushed through by someone within their own design team....as I said, they may or may not "revert" based on feedback, but for now they apparently do not consider it a problem....not sure how or if it is even possible to cancel a PO since they take immediate deposits....a wave of cancellations may get the message across...as far as I am concerned, it was unecessary and should be reversed or re-engineered to lower the backpack...not sure how other buyers feel and I have no idea if negative feedback would even turn into a redesign or some sort of "fix" for those of us who took the bait and switch...

    Apparently the only person left in the galaxy that knew Boba Fett was a cold-blooded murderer for the Empire is gone....long live Boba Fett, the benevolent, patron saint of Tatooine!

    Yes....the way everything tabs in place now (based on what wasn't on V 2.0) is more or less resolved....the only thing now would a complete redesign of the intakes themselves which are too blocky when judged against the lineart...the misstep on the leg tabs just sort of makes the improvements a wash imho...still, it is now much better in gerwalk and battroid...as long as you can ignore the extremely long leg tabs....which don't actually tab in correctly with this latest revision of their VF-1....they actually cannot tab in all the way and just half way at most....not visible in most fighter poses, but what it does do is ruin the position of the rear vertical stabilizers....again, something that some photo tricks can disguise...like with the giant intakes... I guess since I like to display my VFs in a hangar or carrier deck diorama....the new version does not lend itself well for those type of display poses when in fighter mode...first world problems I suppose....

    No, they actually do nothing for it in either gerwalk or battroid....they just stick out more in those two modes...they can't be unseen now...lol

    Pics of this oval skull?
  21. jvmacross
    Oh no...the vinyl is ruined!
  22. jvmacross
    Nice catch
  23. jvmacross
    Swann....why are you posting cels in the Stationery thread?

    Yes, it is dissapointing... KC was making good incremental improvements but this idea to relocate the leg tab is a real head scratcher....and with a potential competitor in the 1\72 arena looming...it is not only a bone‐headed move, but certainly ill-timed as well....
