    Yep, I’m also a fan. It’s my favorite Macross toy info source.

    Hey that looks pretty good!
  3. aurance
    Need a toy of one 😐
  4. aurance
    Naw.
  5. aurance
    LOL always using your artistic skills for nefarious purposes!
  6. aurance
    Well there goes my memory.

    Do Valks carry ladders or something? They have various ingress/egress means but often stop where those would be dozens of feet from the ground. (I’m aware some have ex gear or can be scooped up by arms, but certainly not in all scenes where this happens.)

    I don’t doubt that’s your experience, but as an aggregate data shows cars are getting more reliable. There’s a lot of perception bias for some people thinking old stuff is inherently better.

    The regular 31’s have great tolerances. The only thing that bugs me is that they can’t hold their weapons for crap with the articulated hands. You can sort of make it work but any nudge or movement and it’ll fall.

    Apples and oranges for standards though

    That doesn't look too bad there @MacrossJunkie. Thanks a lot for the tips.
  12. aurance
    Nope, the two have different registries.

    So… Macross Galaxy. I can’t make heads or tails out of its design. What are those green pods? Where does Battle Galaxy attach?
  14. aurance
    Awww that’s a bummer.

    I like the ghosty look. But my mind always first goes to “will this toy droop”. 😑

    I’m attempting to tighten my VF-19S’s ankles today, I’m hoping it helps with gerwalk! At this point all my Valks are like 50% Pledge/Future by mass, hah.

    Not to mention pulling the wool over every client and military-grade hardware vendor they do business with to turn them into psychos or idiots, and as a final cherry on top somehow turn Max Jenius into a psycho or idiot for working with them, am I right? Such power and incompetence combined! There certainly can't be different interpretation of some onscreen events or circumstances happening off-screen to make some degree of sense and fit into the narrative tone! (FYI this is sarcasm. 😉)

    I’m not worried about it, it’s not like I’m going to starve if I don’t eat my toy. I have plenty others to eat.

    Yep, Lunapark. No news. I’ll follow up in a week or two.

    That’s why presumably whoever’s doing the hiding would have risk assessment to factor in the liability. Both companies have military hardware and skilled operators that can do routine things without shooting their feet off, much like, say, Comcast and Tesla, Seto’s hyperbole about incompetence notwithstanding.

    Hah. Yes, for the second time, based solely on the initial question “bang for the buck,” depends on how much buck and what you want the bang to be.
  23. aurance
    Exactly. This isn’t stellar writing. But that’s one of the reasons why we don’t take it as real life with logical consequences. So ignoring writing intent and just trying to extrapolate without it leads to not a whole lot more than cliched pot shots and then in a circle right back to “it’s bad writing”.

    Amusingly this kind of narrative intention vs exacting extrapolation of on-screen events always reminds me of what some people say about The Return of the Jedi, that the Rebels are careless a-holes who blew up a moon in low orbit of Ewok’s home, causing them all to die. No, guys, Rebels are heroes and Ewoks are fine, because RotJ was not written as a holocaust drama, just as Delta was not written as a slapstick satire of corporate ineptitude.
  25. aurance
    I don’t agree with this, because: 1) they are not the same writers, and 2) even still, writing quality and attention to detail can depend largely depend on pressure, motivation, and payment. It’s fun to extrapolate “facts” based on sloppy writing but at some level of that the answers become arbitrary and make less and less sense.
