do not disturb

ha! this shows still on? i thought it got canceled after 2 weeks. i guess its a hit or its better than nothing...i'm going with better than nothing

this thread proves that the internet is serious business.

no and no. theres no way to tell if the wing hinges are correct without taking it out the box and checking it. on plus side, the hinge is easily fixable from the pics i've seen here but i'd still wait for the reissue. whats the point of buying a flawed toy when you know a good one is bound to come out?

interesting... maybe yamato is finally going to re-release the super hikaru. TV FPs for everyone of us!

ha, i just placed my order for both the MH ones. i read feb 2008, hopefully i'll get them sooner than later.

forget a couple of hours, just wait til the re-issue comes out. seriously, theres nothing but bad ones out there and they're the ones that people returned because they was something wrong with the. believe me, i bought 2 trying to get 1 good one and both of them ended up being used POS's. be patient or be pissed.

not good to hear at all. its totally retarded they didn't take into consideration the other arm weapons when the designed it. totally off topic you're in BK, i'm in manhattan, what up! now back to your regular scheduled programming.

i keep coming back in hopes they say, whoops we meant it was $150 not $250.

i'm even more glad i skipped these after looking at this pic... terrible, just terrible. the guy took all those photos but none showing them combined, why?

i'm all over these even if they're just models.

thanks for the report, i'm glad i skip these. i eagerly await the MH review and i really hope its better than the CM one.

haha, in true MW fashion. i know it sucks when people downplay peoples issues but if you've been here for a while, you'd know that asking for help means you'll get clowned in the process. it use to bother me at first too but i know everyone here has a sense of humour and joking 99% of the time.

i was just over on LAFtoys and its say the MH one is only 5"? is this true? only 5"? tell me it ain't so....

alright a couple of small things that were a non-issue for me, but obviously an issue for some. i agree, they totally botched the design of missile pods in the arms. i actually modded mine so they can open but its still kind of meh. don't get me wrong, i totally agree with everything you said, you're talking about very minute things(outside of the cannon mount in battroid) that i really wouldn't consider an improvement, more so than a mod. back on topic, so are you going to get the nora or not?

i'm not swearing it off completely i'm just saying i don't have to own them all as i don't really care for the macross zero series. the only reason i even saw it was because someone on the boards sent me a copy just to be a nice guy otherwise i never would've bothered to watch it....much like mac 7. anyway, if they make something unique like the 0D, i'll pick it up but i don't care to own repaints of the same designs...i only make exception for the VF-1 because of childhood nostalgia. the ivanov/nora/CF are exactly the same, they didn't even give them unique heads....screw that. like i said, i'll pick one up because its has a unique transformation as opposed to a VF-anything but thats the extent of it. as far as the VF-25, if they make it i'll buy it, but only one design of the same toy. keep in mind that the 1 episode i saw of macross frontier was better than the entire macross zero series so that might have something to do with it. and i can't see how they'd make a better konig than the one we got now, its pretty good as is....what do you think needs to be changed? i'd say a 6 out of 10. its cool in fighter mode but thats about it. its sad that i'm willing to fork over this kind of money for a toy i plan to keep in fighter mode. i should just buy a model....

i'm with you there. its the beginning of the line which means it'll take at least 2 releases before they go back and fix anything that needs to be fixed. i know they're just proto photos but did anyone notice how gappy the fighter mode is? the fit and finish just doesn't seem to be there, its almost toynami-esque.

1. the nora is all good. if anything, things were too tight but thats not bound to last. you'll know what i'm talking about when you see how origami like its. 2. nothing seemed to fragile when i owned one other than maybe the tail spikes? the TF sequences is pretty straight forward other than getting the arms/shoulder correct for battroid/gerwalk modes but you can figure it out using common sense. 3. you could wait for a 2nd release ivanov but you might get stuck with the 1st release. unless theres a definitive way to tell the difference between the 1st and 2nd releases, i have no desire to purchase this. the 1st run was so crappy, you can bet people are going to swap their lemons for good ones. the CF is the same as the Nora, but the CF is stupid looking...the color anyway. i'm waiting until they milk the molds and release a grey scheme. 4. it just looks menancing but i don't really care for it that much. i like it because its plane and it has a unique transformation, otherwise i could careless. i have no allegence to macross zero. my love starts and ends with SDF macross, the rest is "okay" for what it is/was. as stiff as people are claiming the joints are on the Nora, the way the hinges and moving parts are designed, its gonna end up being a floppy mess eventually.

i thought i was reigning champ of taking a thread off topic but you've clearly taken the title in just a few short months.

thank you sir! i'm pretty sold on the MH but bigger is better!

stupid question but where the heck are these beagle scans that people are talking about?

already paid for mine last week. i really hope it isn't a big floppy let down like the 1/72 version....jeez.

the FPs look alright but i really hope they include the extra missile pod along with the strike cannon. sometimes you want your strikes to be supers and vise versa.

if you're a casual collector theres no reason to own the same toy design over and over again. i'd pick up one each of the different VF designs(maybe each of the heads) but certainly no repaints if money is an issue.

or everyone canceled their pre-orders so decided they don't want to stock them. i don't care about line art accuracy, its not that big of a deal. i could care less about the knees, the needle nose, them being off scale to one another, its all about their asking price.

nope not really. i said right from the get go i might pick up the more obscure mecha otherwise i have absolutely zero interest in this line.
