  1. I hope they can knock out some of the other VF-1's before September 2021's GBP set....VF-1J's in Max & Milia colors would just be repaints of Hikaru's VF-1J...and they also teased the VF-1A Soldier I think.....I would rather have the VF-1J M&M or VF-1A CF before a VF-1S v2....but I would like to replace the crappy v1 Focker-1S.... The translucent red and blue stands are cool...but I'd prefer the clear.....maybe as bonus items? Just don't bring back the puke lime-green one! TV VF-1A head looks ready to go.... Still would like this SD fellow.... ...and my Roy and Max figures.... .....and I hope they are still working on this.....maybe someone with a Twitter or FB account can ask?
  2. Always look forward to your classic Macross art and TV/movie scene pics!
  3. I know that most bring up Takani when discussing or posting pics of old school Macross kit boxart....but several of them are actually credited to Toshimitsu Susuki.... Like this one..... Some other recognizable Macross boxart...all credited to T. Suzuki....
  4. Not surprising, the book is not an all-encompassing look at the creation of every single VF that Kawamori has done....just a sampling. Like I said before, it is more of a companion book to the last Designers Note that was released....a look into how Kawamori eventually gets to those final linearts... Hopefully, there are enough sales of the Kawamori book to warrant more "volumes"...
  5. Are you referring to the rough sketches for it or just the lineart in general? The lineart is available within a couple of books and there are some rough sketches in the old Macross Design Works.
  6. It will be added to Shoji Kawamori Designer's Note II....coming soon!
  7. Nice collection...my Macross books are sadly all over the place... The new Kawamori book definitely blew past the last record holder for the most voluminous Macross publication...by close to 200 pages I think
  8. A pic while you wait.....
  9. OK...you have first dibs!
  10. Yes, but he had just landed so maybe the engines were still engaged for a quick getaway?....but yeah, SDFM TV animation is very inconsistent
  11. I read this line and looked at your picture and realized I have opened tons of Legos and other toys over the past few years....and only one release of the 5 DX's in your pic....
  12. I have just always thought...closed in Battroid....opened for fighter and gerwalk...closed for any mode in space... There are entire sequences, such as when Max and Millia are dogfighting in episode 18 , in which every scene seems to show Max's VF-1A in Battroid with it's covers fully closed yet his engines are clearly engaged....but when not flying in space...the covers are open for both fighter and gerwalk modes...unless it is transforming from either mode into Battroid, they seem to always just be closed in Battroid when on the ground or flying about... @Seto Kaiba could probably provide the "in-universe" explanation as to when the covers should actually be on/off...
  13. One man's scribbles is another man's 624 page book full of treasure...
  14. The last cel that made it into my hands was actually from last year.....everything else is collecting dust at proxy warehouses...
  15. Nice! I don't really follow any other anime shows, so that one would have been missed by me. Although going over some of his collected works books, I do see a tendency to borrow from himself...
  16. OK, that sounds reasonable. I stopped using them for years now, but I still have an account. I doubt I would have any reason to use them going forward though.
  17. Did you just get the cel shipped? If so, what did they charge you? I know they use FedEx as I used to use them all the time. For some reason I thought they had halted their service?
  18. Nice stuff! Did you get the Max via Buyee? I am curious what they charged you to get it shipped. I have some cels at their warehouse, but am worried they will charge me a kidney for shipping via DHL or FedEx.
  19. I thought I had read it somewhere that all three games were tied to the same alt universe created by MII....maybe not I think "angular" is pretty much every VF other than maybe the VA-3 and some other more radical departures to the streamlined "VF" look...nevertheless, I do see a similar aesthetic between the battroid forms of the VF-2SS and the VF-1SOL as shown in their lineart.... And speaking of the VA-3.....
  20. So once again, Christmastime is here! I have already decorated outside, but it's my Christmas tree that gets to shine each year with a bunch of ornaments....mostly Hallmark stuff...but some other odds and ends make it onto the tree each year.....I have too many ornaments so I cannot place them all onto my tree, so with the kids older now, it's become a tradition for everyone to pick out their own ornaments that get to be placed on the tree or buy a few new ones!.... This year I added 4 new ones and dusted off some oldies....these were my picks for 2020.... Anyone else have cool stuff they hang on their Christmas tree?
  21. LOL...I tried to resist this year...and it helps when I mainly just collect Macross.....but they got me with the following 2 new additions to my Hallmark ornament collection....basterds!!! This was too cute to resist....pull on the snack and Grogu's ears and arms move... This one is a mini animatronic...says a bunch of Yoda phrases while blinking and moving his mouth...the material used for Yoda is a rubbery material that helps with the effect...it was useless to resist not buying him
