Convertors Transforming Toy Line (Select)
fifbeat replied to fifbeat's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Holy crap! Never have seen these before. Great find - where exactly did you find them? I noticed they're not distributed from NY's SELECT, but from Star/Wintoys? So in other words, they're KO's of Convertors lol (as jvmacross says) Great stuff, man. You just put a dent in the CONVERTORS history! lol Curious, how much did you fetch them for? (and where?). -

Awesome stuff. Do you sell prints of these? -
New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
fifbeat replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
Ah, oh well. Thanks for referencing an early post. Despite the legalities alone with HG, wouldn't it be nice to see the events of "the Megaroad-01 sailed interstellar space uneventfully for four years and then lost contact" unfold? Hopefully Disney will buy the property. Then I'd get what I want. *sarcasm* -
New Macross Animation Announced, to be animated by Sunrise
fifbeat replied to seti88's topic in Movies and TV Series
I think it's about time we see a continuation of either DYRL or SDFM. Like, a direct sequel to those events with the surviving characters. Not since Macross Plus have we had an original "Macross" story that worked. Just my opinion. -
Is KITZ actually making this?!
-
😃 Thank you.

100%. These days, all the vendors are carrying the same crap (iPhone cases, etc). Back in the 80s, you can get some cool Taiwan goodies!

Big S. Thank you. Yeah, I realized that Mospeada wasn't a SD show minutes after I posted, but of course, my laziness got the best of me. lol Based on what you just told me, I think I made up my mind to purchase it! I did read that the first 17 episodes are dubbed, and the rest Japanese w/subs. Does this ruin the experience? Are there any character-name changes I need to be aware of? Also, for the dubbed episodes, how did this even come be? It's like it ever aired on English TV? And is the dub one that was done in the 80s? Or a "new" dub? Thanks again! 😃

Loving my HMR! Will buy anything else they release from the Orguss series. ALWAYS loved the designs of these. Question: I enjoyed the Super Dimension series (Mospeada, Macross, Southern Cross), but have YET to watch the Orguss series. I'm thinking of picking up the Blu-ray for it. Can anyone give me a non-spoiler review for the series? Is it worth it? How does it compare to the rest of Super Dimension shows? There's something about these early 80s Anime, man!
-
I just love the size of it, man! 😃 I wasn't expecting it to be this big!
-
mechaninac and Big s, thanks so much for the detailed info and tips! 😃
-
Thanks for the tips. Do you know if there's a kit that comes with all this stuff you mention? Any help is useful. Even if you have to send me separate links. My experience with kits is very minimal. When I was a kid, I used to go for the snap-together ones (no glue required). And I'd never paint them. Always struggled with the decals lol But in a way, I always enjoyed the process when they came out decent. I just love the way this particular one looks. Much better than the HMR that's coming out soon (and I'll be getting that soon). Always loved the MODEROID mech design.
-
I'm not a model kit builder, but I'm thinking about getting this, especially after reading this: "The various parts of the mecha have been separated into different colored runners, pre-painted parts and stickers, making it easy to recreate the mecha with a simple assembly." With that said, this thing is almost a toy! Thoughts? Pre-order at BBTS: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/241358?o=4

Thanks for clearing that up 😃
-
Wait a minute, sorry if this is common knowledge, but where is that design from? It's not from any of the shows, right? Thanks in advance!
-
Loving all these new/announced HMR releases. Bring on the Orguss, too! Not even a fan of the Anime, but I want the Nikick and all that other sh*t! (that rhymes!)
-
Total Jetfire lol
-
Officially? Like, was this when it was going to be a parody of Gundam?
-
Maybe it's a prototype box, but it looks like the box is more of a "rigid" sturdy cardboard box (see the ridges?) , as opposed to the flimsy boxes we usually see with the line: Thoughts?

So here's where Feathers came from 😃
-
Which SDF/Macross is that? (in the middle)? That looks sweet!

I took it one step further. By using the overlay technique, I "forced warped" the image on top of the other (force warping just the stand, since this was the part that I can get close i.e. same shape). It's def gonna be a tad off, but I think the "layered" image on the left should give an even more accurate idea of what the size difference will be.
