  1. So if true.....Disney just gave up and went with making Lucas richer again? http://www.cinelinx.com/movie-news/movie-reviews-movie-news/exclusive-ewan-mcgregor-signs-on-for-obi-wan-kenobi-return/
  2. ..which was a FORD! Thus my link and reference pic.... So.......100% FORD MUSCLE ASSEMBLE!!!
  3. NOPE!!! https://www.whichcar.com.au/features/ford-falcon-xb-history
  4. '71-'73 Ford Mustang Mach 1's... Ford Muscle Assemble!!!
  5. Looks really nice. The VF-1S looks closer to the lineart than the VF-1J.... If it ever goes on clearance somewhere I may pick one up
  6. You are missing the point.....one does not "give input" or "creative direction" to a man who is clearly a genius in his field.....I would hope this Woodhead guy would not even entertain this foolishness....he was probably being polite in his response to the question....I am sure it took great tact to even solicit Mikimoto's participation in this project....now imagine telling Mikimoto that there are stipulations he must meet or entertain in order to participate.....Do you want to just have him say "screw this!" to the current project and any future projects?
  7. You would think most folks would just be happy to be receiving a one of a kind piece of art created just for YOU...but I guess that just isn't enough for some. Guess having to drop 2500 bucks means you are entitled to make demands from a legendary artist.
  8. Sorry.....you still have about 3 more years....probably more.... Didn't you read the manual when you brought her home from the hospital?
  9. yes...100% agree. The goal for HG should be to follow Kylo's advice and "...let the past die. Kill it, if you have to.." Macross is where the money is at.....you can probably fill a small room with Southern Cross fans...and Mospeada...well, let that become it's own thing and follow it's own path, which seems may finally be happening in Japan. But if the other 2 franchises "die" in the process...so be it. As is well known, the originators of Macross in Japan are more or less unhappy with what has happened with their creation outside of Japan. The only way to start fresh or make amends would be to let Robotech die or simply cast it aside much like Disney has with the EU (even though they seem to have dipped heavily into that well anyway). HG should separate the 3 shows and allow for the rebirth of Macross as it's own thing. As long as Robotech continues to breathe.....there will be no end to the Macross quagmire outside of Japan. Assuming that HG would be willing to start over, the other hurdle would be if BW would be willing to accept "turning off Robotech's life support" as an olive branch offering to reboot the partnership between all parties involved. That may be a more difficult proposition. Still, money always seems to win the day when the opportunity to make it becomes less entangled in stupidity...in this case, that being the idea for continuing the "Robotech" franchise as-is.
  10. HG should just ditch the "Robotech Saga" and re-release Super Dimension Fortress Macross, Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber Mospeada under a "Robotech" anthology (if they insist on keeping the Robotech name alive). Kind of like the "Super Dimension" shows of Macross, Southern Cross, and Orguss.....all under the "Super Dimension" title, yet none of them related story-wise. The shows can then exist on their own and as originally meant to be. This would resolve the issue of needing to continue to stick to the "Robotech" storyline that mutilated three unrelated shows and that no one wants to see continued or made into a "live-action" movie. As far as I know, HG attained the licenses for the 3 shows and decided to create Robotech out of them for business/commerical reasons, but there should be nothing from keeping them from deconstructing them and rebooting them as separate individual series. The fact that we have had releases of all three shows in the US as they were originally released in Japan shows that this is possible.
  11. If only Mikimoto was some starving artist that would illustrate your shikishi in whatever style you demanded...

    I really don't care if the box says Robotech or Macross...as long the the product looks decent, I'll bite...besides, why stick the "Macross" logo into the ad if they weren't trying to snag Macross fans too!

    They kind of look like mini versions of those ugly Prime 1 Studio VF-1 statues.... Don't get me wrong...I love Masami's Macross illustrations more than most...but I really don't need any of them brought to life as 3D sculptures...

    just what everyone was asking for? https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/98904 https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/98907
  16. Ah...easy pass at $2500 and also no interest in supporting a Megazone 23 kickstarter.... Also, what's wrong with his current "MtF" style? I'm really liking it. Hoping his upcoming book features his illustrations for MtF...
  17. What kickstarter?
  18. Mylene cel with douga...20 bucks ebay special!...
  19. Cool thread...don't have too many die-cast cars, actually not too much non-Macross stuff in general these days....but I do have some...mostly vintage Mustangs and this bad boy....
  20. I posted the store link from this article... https://geektyrant.com/news/this-han-solo-jacket-is-mostly-great-with-one-big-problem In it it looks like it has the correct pocket count...but I suppose it does look more black than blue....guess if you want full Star Wars "geek" cred...it would be best to do some research before ordering, lest you be the laughing stock among other Star Wars geeks...like these guys!

  24. Which is probably still much sooner than when we can expect to see one released by Bandai?
