  1. This year has been a terrible year for music with all these legendary artists passing away. My hopes of seeing both Bowie and Prince in concert are now permanently dashed!
  2. I really love this show's attention to detail! I don't recall if Frontier had it, but it was quite awesome seeing the control surfaces on the VF-1 actually moving during the flying sequences.
  3. Well, I've apparently been successful in signing up for the lottery. However, I'm screwed if I actually do wind up winning, since to actually get the ticket, I need access to a FamilyMart to pay for and receive it.
  4. I like this news considering that I'm tentatively planning on going to Japan in August! This just gives me more incentive to make that happen.
  5. If Fewture's Garland is bigger than Yamato's, then it really shouldn't be 1/24 scale. For that to work, they must have really upped how big a real Garland would be to make it larger in a smaller scale. Does that mean that the Shogo figure in Fewture's Garland is smaller than the Shogo in Yamato's?
  6. Wow, she totally doesn't sound anything like Milia in that video!
  7. If I remember Wing correctly, Heero never killed a single damned person even though he threatened to all the time. Mikuzuki, on the other hand, hasn't even once hesitated to send someone to their grave.
  8. Funny how cheap you can get a 3000GT these days when compared to a 300ZX or a Supra! Another big product of Mitsubishi is elevators. I think I saw their elevators (and escalators) in at least 2/3rds of the buildings I went in in Japan.
  9. I hope that means they there will also be a USS New Jersey!
  10. I'm finding Konosuba to be much funnier than Slayers!
  11. I'll be going to Katsucon this weekend where I'll probably be picking up a few Gundam models even though I haven't even built most of the kits that I picked up during my Japan trip this past September.
  12. I don't remember how old he was, but my mother's father lied about his age so that he could enlist to fight in WW I.
  13. Damn, those first 0083 kits were terrible! Once the MG versions of them came out, I got rid of the old 1/144 kits.
  14. I was watching a new show from this season, Myriad Colors Phantom World and came across a character name that could possibly be a homage to Macross. The main character just happens to be named Ichijo Haruhiko and uses the same kanji for the names. Or maybe I'm just over-thinking it.
  15. I've always loved the opening theme to Space Adventure Cobra! It's probably my favorite openings from the early 80s!
  16. Speak for yourself. I've followed Macross since I first discovered it in 1985, and I'm perfectly happy with this first episode. Hell, I know quite a few people that consider the songs in the original Macross series as crappy J-Pop.
  17. I only have the small B-Club Visual Comic book for Dangaio. I used to have another book, though I forget which one it was. At least, I think it was a Dangaio book, but it also could have been a Hirano art book. I lent the book to a friend of mine that I haven't seen in years. The only other piece of Dangaio merchandise that I own is the CD for 2 and 3. I used to have the first CD as well, but that's been lost to an ex-girlfriend that I haven't talked to or seen since we split up over a decade ago.
  18. I didn't get to see the entire special, just the raw of the first episode. So far, I like what I see. I can't wait until April comes around!
