ummm... I don't think you can reserve judgement... I mean someone posted a picture and all we can do is judge. Now you can tell me to STFU and it's up to me to listen but I don't think anyone can "reserve judgement". That's like for a more or less for criminal trials where I have no idea what happened in the crime scene. But here... it's a pic. Honestly, if it turns out better in the final stages, then I get to post... "OMG, that's a lot better than in the proto stages!" but here and now those pics look nothing like the cartoon, models, other toys, line art and what else have you.

Well what about comparing it to Yamato's SV-51? Which is pretty close to how slender it is. Yamato's later valks shows how a VF toy should be done. I think the Bandai 1/60 fellas are watching a whole other anime.

They are not making it to their bar of standards that they've established with the awesome things they can do. And that is without taking into consideration the standards that Yamato has set with valkyrie toys. With the number of scenes taking place in atmosphere and with the number of magazine articles showing of the VF-25, I wouldn't say that the thinness we expect is due to the blackness of space making the VF-25 look thin. Especially when you consider that in most space scenes they're using Super Packs, which beef them up. The VF-25 should be anorexic looking in battroid. Bandai = not doing it right. <img src="http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--> FTW! IT's not that they're clueless to the slender aspect of that valk. Look at the 1/100. You'd think with the bigger scale they'd be able to tool it more correctly. it's the chunky monkey frontier style. I'll wait for ver. 2

I was thinking closer to 1/1500, an extra 6". If I was gonna make one it would be frikken huge. But he problem is getting one made then they announce they're making one... I rather have a real plastic toy than resin. Cheaper and stronger. Plus I dont want to end up paying twice. It would be a nice project though.

Out of all the 80's classics this is the one I've never seen. I'll wait for the remake.

I was trying to convince the guy that made the 1/48 ThunderHammer to make me a Macross... kinda getting tired of waiting for these companies to step up.

It'd be pretty stupid for Bandai to drop the ball seeing how lucrative Yamato has been with the Macross license. Now that Bandai is in the game, I hope to see more Macross in the hobby magazine. I can see how they can devote so many pages to Gundam, but even scopedog, zoids and revoltechs get more than the 1 or 2 pages that Macross get. As I said before they need to introduce enemy mechs then we can see more and more displays and dioramas... Making different VFs is a step in the right direction though.

ah yes, I was going to say, if you start an new thread because a thread has been archived, please link to the older thread... Thanks Eriku! wow, who's been cleaning house?

So Tamashii is making these meaning they're gonna be available everywhere thru Toynami... I dont know if I can collect every one of different schemes but I'll try to get each VF or whatever mechs they come out with. I hope they do enemy mechs aside from the SV-51s.

The 1/100 looks so much better... don't like those 1/60 prototypes at all!

wait they went from this: to that? so glad I didnt get these.

haha, at first I thought... that doll is huge! but then I figured out that that was a dresser on the left.

AgentOne?

Alas poor Yorick... give me some sugar...

Reopened due to locking of Frontier catch all thread.

Ah, I see. I have a bunch of the blanks... I wasn't aware there were names for each different ones.

I will hurt people it that was true... well, I'll call random people nasty names but if they did that I would stop collecting these toys ASAP.

And he's making Terminator... with, gulp... McG...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. Robotech.com has the spaceship comparison chart made by the same guy that made that chart. You have to be a member though. For some reason my membership was deleted... weird, I wasn't banned, maybe because I never posted. Anyway, I'm not signing up just to see that again.

Wow, you guys are bunch of violent freaks! I mean... awesome dudes... nice, friendly... awesome dudes!

you can't link to 4 Chan images.
