  1. Of the three pillars...the loss of any VF mecha on a heavily sponsored animated production would surely enrage the majority of long-time fans.....he can "experiment" all he wants with musicals that barely anyone outside (or inside?) of Japan are able to enjoy..... It's funny that he would "complain" about it.....I guess in a way he painted himself into his own "creative" corner, in terms of the animated shows........but if anyone can change "the pillars of Macross" it would be him and he would need to sell "the change" to his sponsors....namely Bandai....and how hard would it be to abandon a 30-year formula of success?
  2. You need to sign up with a proxy service that will allow you to place bids and then receive the items for you in Japan...pack it up....and then ship it to your country.... All you need is time and money!....but mostly money....
  3. Yes...of course. The parallel world explanation is merely a device to shrug off inconsistencies between the shows. It's Macross's Grand Unified Theory! However, the three main concepts of Macross will never change and can be expected to be played out in each animated series, including the next one. Thanks for posting the vid.
  4. Been looking for a complete set of these Bandai E-Graphics cards/postcards......never expected to find an new, old-stock box full of them! Funny thing is cards is one genre of Macross collecting that I have never been into...but I do collect Macross postcards.....so an exception had to be made!....
  5. YAMATO 1/60 VF-1J Mass production type - used - 16,500 JPY (before proxy fees and shipping to your country) http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f135127370 YAMATO 1/60 VF-1D Virgin Road - used - 21,000 JPY (before proxy fees and shipping to your country) http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b157333900 YAMATO 1/60 VF-X - new - 21,500 JPY (before proxy fees and shipping to your country) http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/r114494380 YAMATO 1/60 VF-1A Cavaliers - new - 16,500 JPY (before proxy fees and shipping to your country) http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n131238359
  6. Dang....I wish you would have posted this back when this thread was only on page 9!!!
  7. Assuming no spawn have left the gate.....and you are in no rush to see a subtitled SDFM......perhaps it may be worthwhile waiting.....who knows what good things may come as a result of the latest Macross F English-subtitled movie release..... In either case....an Animego boxset can be found on ebay for relatively cheap.....like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Animego-Macross-Robotech-Series-DVDs-/231169192471?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35d2c1f217
  8. So throw more money at NY......get shafted?
  9. Thanks for that info! So alternate-universe-ish? Still better than Macross II! Anyways.....makes sense...way too many things different in Macross the First to simply be a "re-telling"...both in terms of technology and events......
  10. Seems Macross the First is an alternate universe story already.......
  11. Anime V - July 1987 - Flashback 2012 cover....

    1/48 dead?

    That would be after a 1/60 Spartan and Phalanx, right?....right?!?!
  13. Not sure about this advice. The release of the Arcadia VF-1S Roy and Hikaru (bright white) has had a negligible effect on the market value of the previously released 30th VF-1S Roy and Hikaru. They too were re-colors....and arguably more popular than the VF-19 Kai. I think this "re-color" trick has been played-out once too many times by Arcadia. One scenario that I can see happening is the potential rise in value of this new Kai...if...it is released in extremely limited numbers (kind of like the weathered VFs for Roy, Hikaru, and Max).....if this is the case....we will know pretty soon after it's release.....otherwise, I believe the existing "stock' of original Kai's may actually have a downward effect on the new Kai.....perhaps up to the point of seeing it as "sale" fodder by year's end......
  14. If you are in USA....probably not. So did they charge you extra for the insurance? They are probably making a killing on the sale....they probably paid the poor schmuck who brought it in half of what they are selling it for....so they should be able to cover any extra charges for you... Hope it arrives safely!
  15. How about a $300+ 1/60 Fire Bomber figurine set packaged with a free repainted -19 kai and sound booster set?
  16. You mean like this? Actually, I'd like a MtF VF-1J head.....calling Kurisama...come in Kurisama.... Instant buys for me if Arcadia ever decides on releasing MtF VFs and Super Packs....
  17. VF-17T would be a must buy....VF-19 Kai repaint...not so much....
  18. With the confirmed release of the 1/60 FB set....perhaps there is renewed hope for the sound bazooka (plus other unproduced Yamato stuff)? If so, I hope it is a web exclusive and they pack in the 1/60 FB set (even though that now seems less likely than a stand alone sound bazooka release... ) And with that said....if anyone buys the new VF-19 Kai set and does not want the 1/60 FB set...PM me...I'll take them!
