  1. "Mr March" I do enjoy Schindler's List, and I also enjoy Seven Samurai. But I know I would have think Seven Samurai is way more awsome if I were to seen it back in the days many many years ago. I will play samuai games for months til end,, I might even start learning Martial arts. But all the films you talk about is live action film and not animation. Black and white animation back then was Mickey mouse, popeye, Betty Boop,etc. Most of which are comedy. I'm pretty sure the kids today will mostly want to watch something else instead of those. But if it was back in the day, kid will rush home instead of going to play in the park just to watch those kind of cartoons. Thanks for the support "Mowe" damd it, it seems I got my head stuck on EVA again, and forgot to post other anime series. Martian Successor Nadesico (space, Mecha, war, comedy, action, etc) Gundam 08 MS team OVA (mecha, action) Tenchi Muyo!...the original OVA (comedy) Irresponsible captain tylor (spaceship, comedy) Golden Boy (borderline comedy with a bit of nudely here and there and toilets) Rurouni Kenshin (adventure) Fushigi Yugi ( adventure)
  2. yeah, the stories out right now aren't as good as before, and you are right unfornately that is the trend right now. Golden boy is one of the funniest borderline comedy I have seen. only 6 eps. it's well worth the watch. There's also a Manga out for it so you can continue his advanture
  3. Well you will still enjoy it, but you will probably not enjoy it as much as you would have if you watch it at it's peak. Since you said you are a big fan of film and adores those black and white films so much, can you imagine yourself watching it when they just release? I bet you will enjoy it even more. This is of course base on typical average joe watching this black and white film. And if you are treating it as art then anything can be the greatest thing ever.
  4. hmm, if you consider the size of the MP Prime is similar to the size of a 1/48 then MP Starscream should be around that height too. so it's jet form should also be the size of a 1/48 vf-1 . yes, more transformable jets.
  5. The series came out 10 years ago so I'm correct on you watching it 10 years late since you just started watching it 3 months ago. There were offical toys and offical US VHS tapes from somewhat 10 years ago. You may not heard of the exact name of the series but I'm sure you have seen this series related product one way or another.... also before you even started watching it you already knew that it was extremely popular and had a fanatical following. That alone is enough to fill you with high promises, most likey you set your standards too high. As for the dated animation, if you enjoy it now, think of how much more you would have enjoy if you watch this 10 years ago, when it's not DATED animation but top of the line animation which most other animation TV series looks like b rated movies compare to this. Like I said before timing plays a major role too.,, if you never watched STAR WAR before and only started now you would not enjoy it as if you watch it years ago. You will grade it differently with todays standards. The same for Macross TV series, if you just started watching now, I'm sure the animation quality on some of the eps is already bad enough to make newbies not feel like continue the series. But if you watch it years ago, it was like, YEah, baby,, this is awesome
  6. Wow, there was hardly any pictures for this thing and now someone already have 1 on hand. sigh.... . It looks good and all that but I'm going to skip this one, I always dislike their huge oversize guns and shields. I guess the only good looking ones are the Gouf and the RX-178,, all the rest looks between Msia and Emsia.
  7. Well, you are dead wrong on the overblown and overrated mess part because your timing is over 10 years off. The main difference is that you are just watching the Evangelion series now, with a popular series like this, you are already filled with high promises, and it's very highly that you already have some knowlegde of the characters and lots of spoilers from internet or other sources. Also you will not think the artwork and quality is A+. You can even watch the Movies right after the "I want to kill someone right now ep 25 and 26". I can understand that you don't like it. but labeling it as to much promise,overblown, and overated just because you watch it 10 years late is just wrong. Its totally different if you watch it without knowing anything, enjoying high quality TV series animation that's packed with detail, and get to know the characters one by one from your TV screen without any other sources like message boards , games, cards, books, figures, wall scroll, friends, etc. Then once you know almost all the characters, they give you the WORST "Congratulation message ever".. and that was it. Movie? what movies? AACCKKKKK I'm a EVA fan. I do no think it's the greatest series ever, but I place it among my top Anime list because it's a series that was able to mess me up a bit( kill kill kill) Oh Fushigi Yugi is a very good series too. It's pretty old, I guess it's consider a chick series but it really good, and sad at times,, I even cry in one of the eps ( well just a couple of tears )
  8. I think they can stay with the Macross name. I remember reading somewhere that they are already comfortable with the Macross naming just as much as their Robotech naming. They did that with their DYRL posables, so I'm pretty sure they can do that with the 1/60 and 1/48 too. Maybe they'll have the normal Yamato boxes with the Macross Logo and they will just tape a sticker with the Robotech logo somewhere on the box too. I'm all for 1/48 valks for under $100. And even if I were to still order from overseas at the piont, the price should be lower than now because Yamato will have already increased their sales by import a bunch of valks to the USA.
  9. well, he did say 100% brand new, so perhap he used the wrong pic.. but still $100?? hahahaha
  10. You can cut/trim the clear part of the Sticker. example if it's a Triangle then you cut out all the clear part that on the out side of it and all it's left is the Triangle itself. If you are going to paint then applying an extra top clear coat on top should help.
  11. It's always nice to see your work, but I think you weather a bit too much on this one.. also is it the lighting or the camera that make the colors from your picture seem some what off.
  12. Maybe a 3 part movie version of ZZ in the planning.. and then out of no where a 3 part version of Turn A, And finally a remake of the Original Gundam,,and Some Gundam F91 series in between. Or a just a small special OVA to cover the gap.
  13. NEWS UPDATE Zeta II Dvd Rip is out, there's subtitles but in Japanese RES 704x396 encoded with WMV9 sound in 5.1ch AC3 File in MKV format http://bt.94kan.com/torrents/0/27f5c91cd01...c8f16d8.torrent This is a very good rip, has high quality video and AC3 sound, it's just oo bad it doesn't have english subtitles.
  14. Wow, those amor prices are going higher and highers. Lets ee. $19 original sale price everywhere, and even at that price not everyone wanted them, now it's over $100. It seems right now it has the higher resale value than most of the other Toynami or Yamato stuff.
  15. What's that Gundam that looks like a cross between Aegis and Choas in the bottom left ahnd corner? 377862[/snapback] That's the GAT-X105E Strike Noir. It's the same gundam in the background.
  16. I these info from Gunota.. and they got it from nada-ya.com so I'm assuming that 2 figure set mean 2 figures and not 1 figure with changable parts to another. I babel fish the discription from Nada-ya and it does say "2 body sets of leading part machine "God Gundam" of the story latter half and "Gundam thing" Nobel Gundam "which wears the sailor suit" are merchandising in the FIX series!"
  17. oh, just got some good news.. well these are a couple of days old but since no one posted them yet they are NEWs , right? for the Up comming GFF The God Gundam & Nobel Gundam GFF will be a 2-figure set. The Nobel Gundam's head can be swapped with a Berserker System version. Comes with beam ribbon and, for the God Gundam, an optional hand. I hope they have more 2 figure sets comming out.
  18. 51,, me want 51 or Vf-0D, or the GBP armor. Wonder which will be release or anounce first.
  19. Isn't the shipping around $30 to ship a 1/48 from HLJ to CAlifornia ,USA by SAL? Shipping Estimate: EMS: 4,700 yen, SAL: 3,850yen
  20. F360°

    1/48 Gbp

    man, I had a feeling it was going to be Green.... I'm glad I brought the 1st GBP, So if all the 2nd GBP is going to be Green then wouldn't that make the 1st normal GBP LIMITED??.. Perhaps I should go stock up on the 1st GBP Maybe the price will go up like the LV . naaaa, I better not....I really should cut down on my toy purchases..
  21. how about buying a cheap model TANK and use it's tracks. or even a cheap remote control tank and use it. Ebay might have those items that are already build or used for cheap.
  22. wow, that's a surprise. I hope it's for real. I'm not really a F91 fan,, too smooth and curvy. But a release of F91 always seems to connect with F90 somewhat and I'm a huge fan of that mobile suit. But at 1/100 scale they will be one of the smaller Mastergrades which I hope they will make the price lower too.
  23. 1/200 Gundam HCM-Pros ($15-$36) 1/100 Gundam Arch Enemy ($15-$25, no tallgesse for you) Banpresto Valks ($8-$18) Robotech MasterPiece Ben Dixon ($24) Transformer alternator ($20) Transformer Binaltech (some at $25) Kaiyodo Evangelion action figures ( they are not that weak) ($15-$25) Armored Core 2 Action Figures ( series 1 are too expensive) ($15- $30) Kaiyodo Virtual On Action Figures (the newer one are more durable, the older ones you'll have to be more careful) ($15-$25) Kaiyodo GunBuster figure ($20-$25) Also don't expect to have Yamato VF-19a level in any of these becase the price difference too much.. The only one that is closes to your VF-19a is the Transformer Binaltech.
  24. WTF happen here, a bunch of VF-1j ended around $150 and then BAM! one ended at $355 http://cgi.ebay.com/HOT-MACROSS-ROBOTECH-M...1QQcmdZViewItem
