Have you S ranked all the Chronicle missions or something? I just don't get why it's not unlocked for me??? Is there an option you have to turn on or something? Maybe I've already bought it and had it, just don't know it???

Anyone figure out how to S rank the Enemy Aimo? I realized I had not S ranked that one, maybe that's why I don't have the store options I'm wanting unlocked?

You're welcome. Somebody helped me, so I'm just passing on the knowledge. Though it would be really cool if you could stack skills. Has anyone done a shop guide yet? I'm now at level 20, S or SS on all missions except Chronicle and still no Era Unlock or Stat Unlimiter option in the store...grrrr....

The "support" person has to have it. Like someone already mentioned, it's a "O" autoskill. Row 4, Column 4 (read left to right). Looks like the Shop face thing smiling. Just select it with the support character and use them for your support. This makes you get zero tune points but extra shop points. Pretty nice if you are done with a fighter and just want shop points.

Found a good mission to get tons of points on really easily. The mission in the Frontier timeline that has you destroying eggs. The first part is really easy if you spam your machine gun. The second part is really easy if you spam RS missiles (oh, I'm using Armored Ozma at the moment to farm this mission). Only thing to watch out for is the final vajra that has the star symbol will almost always open the fight with his special beam cannon attack. Time your own special just right and you will be immune to his and kill him with the very end of yours (if using Armored Ozma). Forgot to mention that every time I got between 5500-7800 shop points with the "extra shop points" skill thing that the support partner had. (So no clue how many tune points I would have gotten).

Just got my Robot Damashii ARX-7 Arbalest and all I can say is . The thing is wonderful. I'm sure the Revoltech might be more poseable, but this one can make some pretty awesome poses from the show. It is gorgeously detailed. The paint apps are top notch IMO (at least on mine). The joint systems are just right and make it pretty much show accurate. Neat little extras to keep any fan of the show satisfied too, plus all the parts to go into Lambda Driver mode (which so far the Revoltech version lacks shoulder pieces from what I've seen). All in all, a great figure. For my first Robot Damashii figure, I'm very happy with it and the thing didn't cost a fortune either.

Well, they showed the YF-19 in the original advertisement I think (as a silhouette). I figure that Bandai has rights on them.

Okay. I can maybe see that now that you mention it. I wish my mouse still had the "zoom" function it had when I used xp. Dang Microsoft mouse being incompatible with Win7!!!

So, does that show the head needing to be removed or not? The pics are pretty nice, but I don't see a step involving the head coming up.

Wow, three great episodes in row...awesome! I loved this one. Kenny as a Masked Wrestler was hilarious too. I bet the creator's were like "how the heck haven't we done wrestling already!" when this idea came up. Very nice!

Well, he could have just had a change back maybe? Or the doctor guy did super tuck job or something. lol Anyone else think fat Brock reminded them of Santa? (A very crazy bad-ass Santa, but Clause no less)

Thanks. I am at like lvl 12 or something, played every non-Chronicle Mission, and I'm out of Nyan Nyan points. Tuning points = slow to get too. I just want to unlock the "era" limiter so I can start beasting/owning all the missions with the Ghost X-9. Ex missions might be pretty fun too.

After just watching it again tonight, I picked up on a LOT more. Much better opinion now, though still way too convoluted for my tastes. I guess they pretty much wrote Brock out for the better part of the season unless they plan to really follow his progression in the organization. Could happen knowing them, but most shows would have him more or less gone.

What's the best mission to use to acquire shop points to buy stuff???

Nope, don't want another piece of poo like the two already out. I just love MAF and MUF and would love to play as an Alpha/Beta - Legioss/Tread combo. For now, I'll settle with owning stuff with the Ghost X-9 and flying the YF-19 around (love that valk). The Ghost is pretty overpowered in this game IMO, but oh so awesome for doing the hard missions.

Simple, same reason that Yoda is in games like Soul Calibur, just to draw extra buyers. To my knowledge, there have been no games that really had the Mospeada aircraft in them. A game like this, it would be EASY to just make the fighter models and add them in (assuming they secured the licenses). Then they could be the first to have a game like this including Mospeada aircraft. That would draw extra buyers to some extent. Not saying it would draw thousands or anything, but I'm sure a few people would go the extra mile to get this game if it had a few jets from other series mixed in as bonuses.

Well, they are valkyrie like. Couldn't really think of the right word for them.

What are the chances of seeing the Mospeada valks in a Macross game? With all the recent toys and stuff, I was hoping that maybe they'd sneak the Legioss/Tlead in at some point in time in a game, but nada that I can think of...

For me, Season 4's first episode was kinda meh. Don't know why, but I didn't like the sporadic time jumps. The episode was okay, but I'm hoping the rest of the season is better and more coherent.

Thanks. I read the reviews on both and I see that it's really an aesthetic choice. I'd love to pick up a YF-19 set from the Yamato's 1/200, but I can never find a full set (only Battroid and Gerwalk), so I may just go with the 1/250's Fighter mode since that's what I like the most anyway (assuming I can find a seller parting with one for a reasonable price). Thanks for the reviews as always! (Man, gotta get me a Toynami Blue Beta at some point too when one goes on sale somewhere)

Very nice! If anyone is getting set 2 and doesn't want the YF-19, YF-21, or the Storm Pack VF-25, let me know. It's almost tempting enough to buy a full set just to get the YF-19 and YF-21 at that scale. Have two little mini's to mess around with at my PC. Quality wise, are these nicer than the 1/200's that came out awhile back? (I know they were multi-mode, so just a comparison of fighter modes would rock)

Gotcha. Just figured it must have been a mediocre series with a hit band behind it. I knew Fire Bomber was a hit, just didn't know if the show really was especially with the "no ending" love square thing???? But good to know that the Fire Valk should sell well then.

Yeah, but they are selling these things to collector's at the $70 price point. I always had the feeling that the community in general hated Mac7? (I don't mean just this board, but the whole Macross fan base in general from the way I've seen people talk about it). Also, I see the M+ valks in other games or referenced all the time but rarely see M7 mentioned. I guess it was just how I was seeing things (which doesn't mean that's how things are, which is why I asked). I like both M+ and M7, though not really into the Fire Valk itself personally.

Ah, I just assumed that since they started using metal in them, they renamed it. And if they are being less ambitious, why choose the Fire valk over the YF-19? Isn't the Fire valk more obscure/less liked???

So, anyone know how well this line is doing? I'm wanting a YF-19 and maybe a YF-21, but I'm wondering if the line will make it that long?
