  1. still waiting on confirmation of FB2012 Hikaru scheme before committing
  2. Nanoplasm is a champion. Received a FREE copy of Echo from him in the mail today. Outstanding man. If you're ever down under I'm buying. I haven't been able to justify things like Mari album purchases for a while now being in and out of work but you really came through. Really looking forward to listening to this. Thanks so much.
  3. again happy with my FB2012 LD! The way it was seen in the '80s and the same edition that I craved in my youth.
  4. One of the few sweet things about living in Australia is the $1000 duty free limit on imports.
  5. haha, OP, that's hilarious. Exactly how I felt watching Macross 7 (and no not just the first 15 episodes where it actually was the same song).
  6. One bounty hunter to another, if I'd jumped on the bandwagon when the "new and improved" technology of DVD came out for DYRL in the late '90s then I'd be left with a macro blocky DYRL? with a clipped soundtrack. I'm still not convinced that what we're seeing on BD is what was shown in the theatres or an over-enhanced parody of it. I'll stick with LD for the forseeable future I guess, it satisfies me and my copy of Perfect Edition only cost me $8 in Tokyo in 2002. That's a lot of value over a decade. If I can make it last another 50 years think of the savings on a perfectly acceptable copy of the movie that is not only great looking, it is analogue and is exactly what original Macross fans in the '80s grew up on. It's like a piece of history.
  7. Do they have Samurai Pizza Cats up? In high school that was easily my favorite cartoon.
  8. I'm still contemplating never watching the BD and sticking to my LD, it still seems to me that the LD was how it was meant to be seen at home.. kind of like for historical accuracy of Macross fandom, the softness of LD video has a charm to it too, the sound is brilliant and it just seems right..
  9. the stuff in this thread makes my jaw drop. I have amassed a few b-clubs and a lot of Animages with Macross coverage from the early '80s but some stuff in this thread I've never seen. Diorama books are amazing.
  10. She sings in Japanese and English, has many English only albums. You have to be a fan of soft pop music to appreciate her later work. imo there is usually a big difference between anime music and normal pop music, the quality of the latter is usually greater and in Mari's case this is definately the case. She is a student of music with many influences and that didn't come out in her heavily controlled music for Macross. She's had some very catchy tunes ever since Midori. I definately enjoy her post Macross music more. You haven't responded to my PM so I assume you aren't willing to post overseas?
  11. Monster's DYRL setup is what I've been trying to build the last few years, have most of the CMs I need, the 1/3000 SDF, Fokker, Hikaru and a v1 Elint. Still no where to put it all though! I would change one thing about Monster's setup though, I would have Fokker's 1S in fighter mode, there's nothing like Fokker 1S w/ fast packs in fighter mode...
  12. I'm drooling over the wargaming possibilities with a setup like that.
  13. The movie within the universe explanation was just a comment by Kawamori wasn't it? Not anything in writing? I'd put it down to Kawamori just wanting fanboys off his back. I prefer to think of DYRL as just a retelling with its own neat canon (MII, FB2012 & associated games).
  14. As much as I would love a VF-4 I'm not buying until I know I can have the FB2012 version. Experience has taught me that patience pays off and to never compromise to get something almost as good earlier.
