M+ was released in 1995, its 25th anniversary would land it on year 2020. Although am hoping for a nice YF19, somehow am not sure if the big boys are perhaps just teasing us right now. Oh well, at least if nothing happens, watch this space in year 2020 for M+. Its not far fetched to say that arcadia that the only macrossy stuff coming out of arcadia would be the reactive armor for now..

If it doesn't ruin the fighter stance am all for it. Who knows it might look cool with the solid knee cover from the top view. My concern is I hope it doesn't make the knees floppy in g/b mode, pulling off any leg poses.

Macross Δ (Delta) News Thread - READ 1st POST
seti88 replied to azrael's topic in Movies and TV Series
Every Sunday night Tokyo time. I heard the episode2 spoilers podcast and anticipating certain portions of the episode which involve certain valks! And then episode 3 next week, which sounds like a dogfight episode from the title! -
Bandai Macross Δ Mecha Collection Small Scale Plastic Model Kits
seti88 replied to IXTL's topic in Model kits
Hmm the 31J and 171 panel lined...am not sure if it comes prepanel lined or is something you need to do. from Bandai's hobby twitter...https://twitter.com/HobbySite https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CfU7PuBVIAA3z7T.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CfU7PuVUEAMYtWi.jpg -
Yeah i remember there was quite a bit of discussion on the ins and outs of licensing before. Not a topic i would want to step into. Needless to say anyone holding the SDFM/M+/M0 licensing would only serve to keep competition out of macross space and maintain market presense. And i can only thk that it would only serve bandai's purposes to do that. On the YF-19, bandai did a shot over arcadia's bow with the yf-19 prototype last Oct. And then arcadia responded with re-issue. It could be arcadia's last ditch attemp to block bandai at dominating the macross market, probably at the very end of the license. So i can probably conclude as well that any macross licenses floating around, would more than likely be held by bandai. Hmm...so i guess this thread may look like going for a short hiatus on the macross front, until something changes which disproves things..

Hahhahaha you crack me up man...

hahaha yes with improved hip swing bar mechanisms! All new tooling!

Am not sure if bandai is being lazy with promotional material or if that's the actual e type altho it's painted like it. I thk the E type had a chopped off tail ie stump as per previous examples shown b4.. I was also wondering if the mecha colle had an E type with radar deployed version. Am quite sure they don't transform based on the price point..
-
If ever the grunt vf1 comes out...now that would be insanity...platoon level battle scenes!
-
If Arcadia doesn't hv it, who might have it? Of course talking abt the 1/60s..I can only thk of bandai but they are bz with the hmr's...maybe one of the lesser known brands?
-
No, am referring to bandai's all transforming 1/72 scale frontier kits. In my example i had roy's so the grey comment. With delta, there is so much color in one valk. I read the description on HLJ that the 31 would be molded in color and so am wondering if thats a change bandai is making.
-
Arcadia normally takes a while to clear, so i think thats pretty normal. However i do thk that frequent re-releases and a high price point, stretch products to be on the shelf a lil longer than usual. I thk the 4G was a nice re-release but the YF-19 seemed a lil too soon. I do however want arcadia to hv a seperate category for lower priced items, as i am not sure if everyone can constantly afford such high pricing.
-
Hmm I didnt remember the old bandai vf-25's being molded in color, or should i say it only came in grey with stickers. Looks like with the 31 bandai is breaking bandai's own trend (if anyone can correct me) by having it molded in color. I wouldnt knock bandai for that yet, its still only the CAD prototype, designed to get our tails a-wagging.

One can only dream....

Thats a few if's, feeling a lil meh with arcadia if thats all it is this year. Still waiting for aracadia to wow us with some annoucements..

Probably bandai's rationale would be that most folks would use the included stand, or that the gears wouldnt be that noticable, due to the jet profile hiding it somewhat while on the ground. I like where kawamori train of thought is going, though in practical essense, bandai's engineers would be looking up at the ceiling and shouting kawamori's name each time a new radical valk comes out. Already i dont expect many would want to have the gears out in fear of scratching the knee cap paint. Unless they have a pivot joint mechanism acting like a suspension and avoids the knee cap to touch the shin. That may be hard to fold back in. +1 for the idea though... One thing am looking forward is the jet profile with the gears out. If it points nose down with the back wheels acting like a suspension spring lifting the back for a aggresive stabce, i thk that would be a really nice ground parked profile. *OUCH* to ET. The promo shot looks good, except for the canopy area which seems a lil fake. But if it is indeed this quality, you get the whole platoon for a bargain! Wish the E could have its radar part on though. And dem panel lines iz amazing mon.

It's certainly giving me ideas to paint, however bad I am at it. That being said, it certainly looks nice and brings out the magic of anime!
-
Certainly is different, and i wonder if it can be seen partially in the G/B modes. Plus we get to see hayate in his CAD designed valk suit. Didnt realise he has such a volume of hair tho. And that shld be freya in hers..
-
That sounds real cryptic, like the sound of motobikes revving in the distance? Btw, on the post of picture of prototypes, am not sure if there would be any takers if there arent real solid photo's of prototypes. But i get that if the smaller companies put out less than spectacular pics, probably it would take the wind out of pre-orders. Proabably just a matter of determining if the prototype is of sufficient quality, else dont even display it.
-
I would think its much easier to implement in pure fighter mode, since hasegawa fighters do not transform. Just a matter of plugging in landing gears, so the proportions should be sleeker.
-
Its a CAD illustration for the bandai 1/72 model kit. The DX would have the regular front hinged doors.
-
Was abt to reply that you pre-ordered without any pictures?? And lo and behold all the CAD designs are up in the ami link now...(where it wasnt b4) Those CAD illisutrations look sweet....

LANDING GEAR CONFIRMED! and you wouldnt have guessed where the wing gears are deployed from.. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/review?scode=TOY-RBT-4059&page= And other stuff too...
