Ah well, 1/60 would be good to match up with other macross 1/60 toys. We should get all fans and hobby stores to create a poll: "would you buy M+ 1/60? Or redone 1/72?"
Maybe if they space them apart long enough, they can make more money. So no word until everyone who has wanted the existing toys actually has them. ...and THEN, bang! announce a new 1/60.
If people knew for sure newer and better ones were planned it would kill sales of existing ones. (just how long has it been since the original M+ anyway?) You would be competing against yourself since there aren't any other companies competing to make the M+ toys.
