  1. I'm the little earth crawler nicknamed "Leather Face"! Both the stalker of earthworms and dumb teenage blondes wearing very little clothing
  2. Hmm, sounds to me like ye olde Jedi mind trick. Let us rephrase this question: Larger scale Macross Plus toys? But seriously, how about a Ghost? When people think Macross Plus toys they think VF-11, YF-19 and YF-21, how about the ghost? Ghost? I dun think it's transformable... IMO it shouldn't have any points of articulation compared to the destroids... doubt yamato might produce those. Well I think your right, but If I understand the explanation for the need of the yf19, yf21, and the Ghost is they were looking for a new surgical stealth strike aircraft. If thats true (my memory sometimes picks out things incorrectly) they really had no need to make the Ghost transformable (who knows that might have been the next "version" they were going to make). They were looking for a "Fold"able stealth strike vehicle for interdiction work. In anycase, I think I would like to see a M&M&M kind of box set... a YF19, YF21, and a Ghost in the same box 1/72 or 1/100 with very fine detail.
  3. Opus, if you have any Robotech books and feel like getting rid of them? please give me a PM. Maybe we can work something out
  4. Hey hey, don't diss my boy Pedro here; other than being seriously misguided, he rocked. Him and to some extent Mylene's sister were the only things I liked off of that. I say to some extent because they did like Basara. Ya it was a very kewl twist. She was talking to Basara and and saying how she was talking to her parents. I started to think, wait a minute they re-wrote the entire Zentron history? The scene where she was about to kiss Basara and then Pedro jumped into here mouth, again another Pedro annoyance. I think Pedro as a character was done an injustice with the voice over, its just so annoying.
  5. Dangard? it took you 20 mins to do that? NM, I'll just quit now while I'm ahead, because come now... I'd hate to start laughing Well if I wanted to just use the clone tool and do it that way it would've been faster, say 10mins but then you leave behind artifacts and the color matching is off. ...but hey, I'll let my works that I've shown here in the past speak for themselves. Old timers here should recognize these. 2 Gundam Newtype images for Tallgeese from the old boards. 2 wm cheng models with new backgrounds. Calm down... just poking fun
  6. I was doing an Google search for Princess Mononoke. Princess Mononoke was probably the last "theatrical" anime I had seen outside of renting or buying on DVD. And I was drawn to see what fan sites might exist. I came across www.hsx.com, Hollywood Stock Exchange? This site has to be a joke? or a really big marketing gimic? Has anyone seen it? Made me go "WTF?" but anywaysies... Anyone know of any good "English/EngRish" Princess Mononoke fan sites?
  7. Dangard? it took you 20 mins to do that? NM, I'll just quit now while I'm ahead, because come now... I'd hate to start laughing Now I might be wrong, but I thought the laser beams coming from the sensor ports on the VF nose was an original Macross animation error? Kind of like the tail missles, and the F117s carpet bombing in Mac0? FYI I had seen that image floating around RT internet fan sites for a long long time. I had never seen it on a Macross site, but as always I have been proven wrong on occations.
  8. I just finished watching "Mac7 - The Galaxy is Calling Me" for the first time. Subs were ok, but litterally the story did actualy bring me to tears. And honestly I am not sure what I found "sad" about it. It was "interesting", I would not call it bad/good/spectacular/hysterical... just in itself... weird... The ending had a real, I mean REAL good twist. I have never wanted to DESTROY anything in this whole world, be it real or immaginary, as I wanted to DESTROY Pedro. I got so freekin tired of hearing "Bomber" and all about the Maryjane seeds... I wanted to start screaming "KILL IT" I could tolerate the same RT Reba West Minmei song being played repeatedly for 8 hours before I could tolerate 5 mins of Pedro going "Bomber... Bomber... Bomber..." Battleing the Protodevilin with music was probably the most "interesting" part... Once again, I didn't find this Mac7 bad... just wierd. Music was good, it was nice to see the subs for the lyrics.. the songs make sense now. I need to see more Mac7 to make a complete, true opinion of it. Right now I'm still indifferent.
  9. Hmm, sounds to me like ye olde Jedi mind trick. Let us rephrase this question: Larger scale Macross Plus toys? But seriously, how about a Ghost? When people think Macross Plus toys they think VF-11, YF-19 and YF-21, how about the ghost? I agree.... I would love to see a Ghost... but I doubt the demand would be great enough. But who knows, I could be wrong.
  10. a 1/1 Non-speaking Minmay, 1000 points of articulation, and Toys??? When ths badboy err BadGrrrrllll come up for pre-order... SIGN ME UP
  11. I pretty much agree with you about the Reba West songs... but Reba West sings in only about 10 songs (out of over 60 songs) on the soundtrack (remember its 2 disks). IMO The person who made the Robotech soundtrack what it is, was Ulpio Minucci, the composer of the background music. He composed 41 pieces/scores of music for the series (Disk 1). Looking at my playlists, 10 might be an exageration, The Vocal songs (Disk 2) has a bunch of other singers found in the other three parts to the series (Southern Cross, Mospeada, and the ill fated Sentinels). Even though the songs are really corny and 80's reminisc, "Lonely Soldier Boy" and "Saved by Science", IMHO are a damn good songs. Reba West songs, if you hear them more than once, can drive a man to kill... I love the Robotech series, but every time Minmei broke into song I had visions of commiting arson and murder. EDIT--- Corrected the spelling of the composer
  12. LMAO the 1.2/1 Minmay? inflatable with kung-fu action grip? 1/8 Macross? hmmm that would be over 1100 feet long, hmmm wonder how UPS ships that
  13. I agree to an extent, Ulpio Manuchi (SP?) did an excelent job composing the RT Soundtrack. But as for not listening to the Macross OVA music? I believe that music is what helped to make all these stories what they are... I personally want MORE!
  14. What "I" want is a kind of M&M set but for Macross Plus... a Box set with a YF19 and a YF21...
  15. hmmm I recognize it.. just can't place it. Sorry that doesn't help does it
  16. According to Nanashi the Prometheus is 512m long (rounding down, that 1500+ feet) The www.navy.mil website lists the Nimitz at 1092 feet I never realized just how freekin huge the Prometheus realy was.
  17. 1. YF-19A Battroid (1/72) 2. Battle Pod Glaug (1/60) 3. Fan Racer (1/48) *What would the Dims be on a 1/48?
  18. They have been sold out for quite some time now. Good luck, you might try E-bay. But expect to bend over if you really want to get one. EDIT------ Please correct me if I'm wrong... these were a limited run right?
  19. Sorry Its a Robotech image, its been in the Robotech fan website system for quite a while.. I recognize it immediatly, good luck finding one without a "Robotech" something or other on it. I could remove it with Photoshop for you, at a cost of course
  20. Heck, at the very least I'd like to see a smaller scale say something like 1/75 or 1/100 would be nice. Something that will fit nicely in the corner of my display shelf. But worst case I'd just buy a Hassegawa model and paint it Low-Vis
  21. Sinse I am "im"-patiently waiting for the 1/60 Monster to be released... as much as I would love to have a massive scale release. I figure they might as well be in proportion to the Monster so I voted 1/60. Personally I would love to get something in the area of 1/33
  22. I personally have seen my fare share of bad Subs... I have no problem dealing with spelling errors, or slight gramerical errors (normal EngRish). The stuff that makes me laugh and frustrates me at the same time are the "utter gibberish" subs. I have seen subs that read like "The Cat fire to the car, hoses make better trees." you sit there and rewind-play-rewind-play-pause... WTF? then fast-foreward past that scene.
