  1. OPUS :

    I recieved mine a few days ago from Twin Moon Animes and the S.N. is in the 1300s

    So, a pre-3000

    Only two small problems that my mind can handle :

    - hinge of the right arm won't rotate at 90° but 80 or 85° in the horizontal axis (from plane to gerwalk)

    - left arm shoulder missiles trap hinge is inverted. hard to explain but the small piece of plastic is inverted. I tried to invert but the whole arm is in plastic and it's glued. I dread that the patient may loose the whole arm during the surgery, so, I will let it that way but you see it only if you know it.

    except those two problems, I have :

    - no broken part

    - no paint issue

    - no missing piece

    The right arm is even ok for some position and it is not so loosy as some people complained about. If you rotate the elbow completely, the elbow is rather solid actually and I can pose in gerwalk/battloid modes.

    The paint job is perfect. The colours are perfect. As accurate as my mind can remember.

    The wheels suck big time ahah they're ridiculous. Hopefully I bought a stand so it's not a real problem because it looks so much better on a stand than on the shelves.

    The weight of the toy makes you feel confortable about solidity.

    The box is a piece of art.

    I like the stickers a lot. They're so much better than Yamato's. All in all a perfect toy that I like as much as the 1/48 Yamatos I already own. Buy it if you like the robotech new generation anime.

    (ask for jpegs I have a digital camera if necessary.)

  2. Has the series ended? I have only found up to 15 fansubbed.

    it's in progress

    if you look at the divx torrents files even better, you can find 19 RAW files (no sub).

    The series is in progress in Japan right now. There is a new ep. every 10 days (the fan sub group release a new sub every 10 days, but I presume on TV eps are weekly - fan sub group is busy I guess and they're a bit late)

    Ep 16 should be released by Anime-Empire around 7th of feb.

    A new fansub group is releasing eps as well, with quite a fast rate. They did 12 ep so far and are very fast. Maybe they release ep 16 before Anime-Empire

  3. Still availlable as fansubs, so I guess it's still not licensed.

    But it's a good series, some one may license it sooner or later.

    TV airing : it's quite a long series with 24 or 26 eps so it's interesting for western countries as well for a tv show.

    DVD : as it's quite a long series, I don't know if they'll going to release it as DVD/VHS. It would be something like 8 DVD if u put 3/DVD. Or even 12-13 DVDs if u put 2ep /DVD.

    A bunch of money.

  4. I like Robotech, because I watched that as a kid, 18 years ago. I discovered Macross a few years ago, with internet. I have a few toys from Yamato because they are good quality.

    Actually, I love the macross TV series toys because indeed they are the same looking toys than the Robotech series but with Yamato quality.

    I like Robotech also because they speak english and I don't have to read subs.

    I didn't like DYRL really. I don't even understand the story very well while the Robotech history is clear. I have the Robotech DVDs and not the macross ones. I believe they released remastered ones but they're damned expensive and still in japanese with english subs.

    I liked Macross Zero, Macross 7 (also a little too "Magical" with Spiritia if u see what I mean), I also liked Macross + and Macross II. But the one I prefered were Robotech Macross Saga, Robotech New Generation (Mospeada). I don't know why, probably because of the english language.

  5. I like Planetes, it is good, and I love the Manga too. Tanabe hasn't even shown up in the manga yet so far as I have read. Maybe she will show up later, it was a good idea in my opinion to add her character at the beginning of the anime. It allows them to explain things that are stated off character in the manga, plus it gives the anime a wider appeal, attracting female audiences. Plus I love the music, need to find the OST.

  6. Regarding pilot scale complaints...

    According to Macross Compendium, Millia stands 8.55 meters tall, anda VF-1 battroid stands 12.68 meters tall.

    Millia should NOT be as tall as Max's VF-1A. Or even close. If she was, things would be VERY wrong.

    On the other hand, she SHOULD be a bit taller than she is. But not much.

    The pic LOOKS about right, but Max's spread legs offset things a little bit.

    Really, get the facts right BEFORE you complain...

    thanks for your answer and kind words

  7. Yeah now it's going to be somehow a soup opera with the love story between Ichimachi and Tanabe. Ep 15 wasn't very interesting. No space, not Fee-san, not even a kiss beteen senpai and tanabe ;) - Only talks. Let's pray for a better ep.#16 coming in 9 days !

    That's the only Space/Tech Anime for the moment.

  8. I think it looks cool, my only concern is that it is not much bigger or at all bigger than the club m 1/72,check out the pic next to my 1/60 and the pic i the review, the kneecap seems (i really mean seems because i do not have the yamato yet) to be about the same height..........

    Yeah, I've looked at the pictures of the box in graham review, and the box doesn't say it's "1/60" so it might be 1/72 in the end. The humanoid should be the size of the VF-1A Max. That's really strange and nobody is pointing that out. They' re all blinded by the beauty of the toy ;)

    Or maybe the QRau is in the right scale but the Milia is way too small for the toy's size. I don't know.

  9. actually, I'm a newbie on modeling/coloring

    Yes, your work is horrible!!!!

    Colours are hawfull

    Stickers/decals sux

    Shots are bad

    Posing deservce an "E-"

    ;-)

    Of course I lie. It's the opposite. I hope we can see the vermillion team for real, because I can't afford the time to do those precious. I'm amazed. it makes me want to watch the anime and i already launched the "Rick Hunter" (sorry Macross lovers) while I was watching your shots.

  10. Not that it matters- just interesting...

    I think nobody knows, because Religion is taboo. It hurts sensibility, and commercially speaking, it only brings bad things. I believe Macross was designed, from he start, to be international, and they didn't put any touch of religion in it. Even Zentraedi are region-less.

    In addition, the fact that human may be genetically built by the Protocultures is against every religion "holy books" I think :)
