    Hi-Metal R

  3. Can't wait to get my Macross Fever Hikaru! I think it will come with the "Helmet Head" and a Helmet to hold...or the hair will be removable like Minmay's....this pic was from a few posts ago... Can't have a pilot suit Hikaru without his helmet!
  4. I hope they don't move onto non-Macross Saga characters too soon.....the line would die....want this line to survive long enough to get Lisa, Max, Millia, Roy, Claudia, Gloval and Ben.....then if it survives those waves....Breetai, Zentran Soldier, Exedore, Bridge bunnies.... Heck....I'd take a Yotchan before they start thinking about Southern Cross or Mospeada...
  5. Nice...I was thinking about grabbing some of those M7 cels on JYA....but I think I have enough M7 at the moment...
  6. If Bandai keeps dragging their feet....we may end up with a KC Breetai....which may not be a bad thing!
  7. LOL....where's the second gun? *edit* I think I see it now....weird angle......also like the minmay doll accessory.......KC's stock is rising! All they need to do now is fix all of the issues with their 1/2000 TV SDF-1....do that and all will be forgiven!
  8. Thanks for posting....all in on this figure line.... Nice rifle.... ....but maybe the gun would have been better considering his flight uniform....or why not both?
  9. @saffabrat..... Nice stuff...thanks for sharing and welcome to MW! As for where else to buy....there are a few, the biggest (most expensive) one online being Anime Link....but you may as well buy whatever you like off of YJA when you see it before they do and jack up the price!
  10. Macross Δ Delta- Passionate Walkure Movie Program..... Macross Δ Delta- Passionate Walkure Clear File.....
  11. Funny...because I was thinking more or less the same thing when I saw that KC SDFM Hikaru......been a long time coming....like I mentioned in another post.....the good thing about the KC offerings is that they are restricted (perhaps initially?) to the original SDFM characters and mechs.....imagine when they get to the DYRL stuff at that 1/12 or 1/6 scale.....tears of joy will flow... BTW....curiosity got the best of me...and the price didn't help.....so I ordered one of the SD VF-1's...went with the VF-1A Soldier Type with the FP......I have to say they look alot better in person and the quality is not bad.....if the 1/72 VF-1's they are releasing are just as good..or better....I will definitely be supporting KC's Macross efforts.....well, except those 1/6 scale bluetooth speakers.....I'll just have to wait for the 1/12 versions! Oh and I ordered the pull-back mini Minmays....so guess you can call me a KC supporter already!
  12. I know the promo pic says "Robotech" and "Harmony Gold"....but all I see is Hikaru Ichijyo!

    Hi-Metal R

    Teased.... But so far for the HM-R Macross line....Display Only = Coming Soon
  14. As more of a fan of SDFM than DYRL....one of the good things about the KC Robotech license is their apparent requirement to stick with SDFM designs.....personally, I'm bored of just getting Minmay in her DYRL outfit...or DYRL pilots.... What happened with the 1/6 SDFM TV pilot figs....haven't seen any new pics in a while
  15. Well....I suppose if you want to include kits or statues....there were those ARII releases from the...90's? And one Yellow Submarine Minmay in Chinese dress.... But all of them are a matter of opinion on how well they captured Mikimoto's original drawings
  16. Agreed....just the leg mod alone makes a world of difference....looking forward to seeing the end result from all the mods....
  17. They are definitely Mikimoto-inspired....but not his designs....I think they were drawn by a Satelight artist...but not 100% sure... I think a repost of some Macross Fever animation clips is in order!
  18. Oh...OK...you mean the worst of the actual drawings used in the cel animation.... HG licenses out the original character and mecha designs every now and then to someone that wants to publish a collection of it...think there is a book out now..but you'd be better off just finding an old original Japanese Macross reference book.... Anyway, no one seems to ever "try" and capture the look of the original SDFM character art designs...at least no one so far....KC did a good job though on their Minmay, even though they seem to be using the Macross Fever designs instead of the original Mikimoto....I guess they are a hybrid of the old and new styles....sort of a merging of SDFM and MFrontier character styles....at least to my eyes...
  19. Huh? Are you referring to the original Haruhiko Mikimoto Character lineart? I don't see how you can even compare those Toynami monstrocities to Mikimoto's original Macross character designs. As for the KitzConcept Minmay....they seem to be going with the Macross Fever look, which is good......no idea what they are using for reference on the Toynami figs....seriously, why even release them when those KC figs are also being teased.....
  20. Only if they're Blaupunkt!
  21. Instabuy...thanks for posting! Ditto on the Zentradi figs.... 1/12 VF-1 cockpit in our future?

    I would have problems too if it happened all the time......nothing is perfect As for a shop adding extra days to your shipments on a consistent basis.....well, complain or take your business elsewhere.....the days of having limited buying options are thankfully gone
  23. YJA would be your best option at this point....sometimes Mandarake gets WF items too....

    This surprises you? Why would anyone pay for EMS if SAL was just as quick for less money?
