    Hasegawa put up the painted sample photos: http://www.hasegawa-model.co.jp/product/65836/ Recycling the VF-25 pilot figure?
  2. TMBounty_Hunter
    I do believe the original announcement poster by Hasegawa for Delta kits has silhouettes for both the Draken and the VF-31. Draken just got first dibs because it's so much sexier.
  3. TMBounty_Hunter
    Oh thank god HLJ reopened the pre-order on the Hase Ba. It was listed as ORDER STOP for a few weeks now and I thought I'd miss out on it.

    http://hlj.com/product/PITTA0002 I've only recently found out about Tetra Model Works but they seem to have a ton of useful photoetch for general use

    Do people really not keep their order/shipping emails? I've seen this complaint in multiple places and it puzzles me. It's not like there's storage space issues these days and the emails are tiny anyway. I just chuck all mine in a folder. They often come in handy too because I don't have the best memory and searching the emails to make sure I actually bought the thing I thought I bought saves a lot of time vs digging through the massive kit stash every time.

    I bought so much stuff from HLJ that I don't know what I want to work on to enter.... ;_; But this really is some great motivation
  7. TMBounty_Hunter
    I get that they'd rather milk what's current, but there was a massive gap between Zero and Frontier, and a slightly lesser one between Frontier and Delta where they could have pumped out a few kits but sadly didn't

    How come Macross 7 gets no love from Hasegawa? Is it a licensing thing? Will the Macross Modellers fix this eventually? D:
  9. TMBounty_Hunter
    For those that want the kit, HLJ has still has them in stock: http://hlj.com/product/HSG65833 Most other Macross kits by Hasegawa and Wave are also going on sale today. Gotta fill up that backlog :3

    Just paid HLJ for my Draken HobbySearch has the tree photos and manual scans up: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10410599 EDIT: It looks like you get a whole tree of polycaps and the kit only uses two. That's a great bonus :3
  11. TMBounty_Hunter
    Interesting to note, that last tweet seems to mention the Hasegawa VF-31 is due next spring. Also if you add the :orig tag to the photos you get the full res and these are big enough and in focus so you can see all the gritty molding detail. This Draken seems like it will be a great build. EDIT: Looking at the painted model it seems the gold was painted first and the blue on top. I seem to have constantly been told not to mask metallics since that might mess them up and/or not be a good base layer for another color. It also seems to me that putting the gold on after the blue would be a much easier masking job, so why did their in-house painter do what he did? D:

    Huge boxart is HUUUUUUUUGE at All Japan Model and Hobby Show Source: https://twitter.com/MasterFileblog/status/779134416295571457 So what will be your choice for painting the gold? EDIT: GOOOOOOOOOLD https://twitter.com/hobbylink/status/779153405029658626
  13. TMBounty_Hunter
    If you do that thought I wonder how much the disparity in panel line width will show. Bandai panel lines are FAT.
  14. TMBounty_Hunter
    Description says pilot is from another kit
  15. TMBounty_Hunter
    Yeah, pilots would have been nice. Not sure where I'll get mine from. Either the eventual Hasegawa VF-31 or if the Bandai ones goes on sale at HLJ. Just paid HLJ for my set of 2.
  16. TMBounty_Hunter
    It's out. HLJ hasn't sent a payment request for mine yet though.... Pics of the trees and manual up on Hobby Search http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10396131/10/0 I assumed we'd be getting a whole new resin cockpit tub, but it seems the resin part ride on top of the old tub. No new trees/parts aside form the two resin chunks. Oh well, should still be fun building best OTP. EDIT: thank god the black pinstripe decal is separate
  17. TMBounty_Hunter
    That info is on the Hasegawa site http://www.hasegawa-model.co.jp/product/28/
  18. TMBounty_Hunter
    Hmm, remember this "mistaken" flyer? Mikumo = Mirage = Lady M
  19. TMBounty_Hunter
    Or maybe Mirage is temporarily standing in for Mikumo while she's recovering from the ruins again.
  20. TMBounty_Hunter
    So Mirage is gettinga figure of her wearing a Walkure outfit: http://macross-matome.net/goods/7675/ Is this a spoiler or just fanservice?

    Actual release dates don't seem to show up until the product is pretty much ready with PLAMAX. The Pacific Rim kits they first showed prototypes off at the February 2015 Wonder Festival, and then at Summer 2015, then winter 2016, and only at summer 2016 event did we get a release date of December. The current information plaque for the VF-1 says 2017, without even narrowing it down to a season/quarter. So probably 2nd half of 2017 at this rate...
  22. TMBounty_Hunter
    More cosplay and model https://twitter.com/Hisamelody/status/757158676901703680 Also I'm pretty sure that the 2nd line on the info plaque states that this isn't the final level of detail.
  23. TMBounty_Hunter
    Maximum adorableness https://twitter.com/pico8_kuma/status/757088206751883266
  24. TMBounty_Hunter
    So it's mentioned that the Wind Singer first showed up 150 years ago. Maybe that was Mikumo? Might be why Roid is interested in her and her memories of singing in the stadium.
  25. TMBounty_Hunter
    That last 5% is Blue Grey H42 in the Aqueous line. Equivalent in the Mr. Color line is C72 Medium Blue
