Nice haul. Those cobras would make an excellent backdrop to a COBRA diorama. -
Fingers crossed for new information to be released for the new YF-21. Was there much to be updated or modified since the last set of pictures. Honestly, from what was shown there really didn’t seem to appear much more room for improvement. It seemed ready for market.
-
Hopefully, Bandai pulls through with more HMR. Slowly loosing hope for this line. Maybe there’s hope after this exhibition.
-
That right there is what really is frustrating about the Delta line. So many great opportunities to produce more VF that it’s hard to believe Bandai doesn’t want to milk the molds that already exist.
-
Incredible line up!
-
It’s a 1/6th scale German trench coat. There are plenty of providers of this scale.
-
Thanks. Having three or more each isn’t a bad thing.
-
You could buy an outfit that resembles the Zentradi suit and add a little paint and wiring to make it look the part. All in at about 20 bucks.
-
There are also two other versions of this. One has orange fast parts and the other has silver fast parts. The Valkyrie remains the same color for all three.
-
Has anyone seen any posts of upcoming events that might host Bandai? Hopefully new items will be presented then.. Speculation has never lead us to a concrete answer. I really am looking forward to more HM-R and DX news.
-
Looking forward to Red Comets efforts 2-3 months from now. Plenty of time to track and record what should have been better on an already achieved attempt. But given what Red Comet has done I have faith and hope he pulls through.

A DX Custom Jetfire found on FB.

Nice. He has some great carded gigs. Here’s a couple of other sites that could have more... Lots to see here from 1/55 and beyond. https://www.giocattolivecchi.com/Forum_detail.aspx?t=0&id_d=407954&p=1 Also this fine gem Of a site has some very unique 1/55. http://www.robotechcollections.fr/collection_autres.php Enjoy!

Those 1/48s give all kinds of goose bumps! Excellent collection as always. Are you still collecting more 1/48s or are you done?
-
Honestly, these should have been released in 1/55. While these are not for everyone, I can definitely say I would have surely bought them. Macross 7 had a lot of interesting varieties aside from the VF-1. I have a victims slated for these schemes just not in this scale.
-
Awesome. Can’t wait to see and read what it is.

Thanks. But most interest generating sales has been done through posting interest in a respective thread. It really would be best to post WIP dedicated discussion and see where and how far to the point of sales. I think we have had enough discussion about this, or at least I have. I have plenty more to share and looking to encourage anyone who wants to share more finds to please do so. I’ll see if I can work a timeline to better represent the history. Or at least try.

I appreciate your feedback and don’t take your comments as confrontational. We’re all good. This thread is about the “1/55 Revisited” a somewhat official and unofficial history of the mold and what transpired from it. The reason for reminiscing on the pioneers and their championing was to further develop what transpired from the original Takatoku through out history from official through KO manufacturing and how the bridge kept the mold alive through the “dry spell.” This was a time when there were really no options to acquire an official mold without breaking the bank and so your recourse was to either acquire an expensive KO and customize it using various talented artists found here and elsewhere. Believe it or not, at one point a MIB Takatoku could run as high as 3K. A Jetfire could Run from dirt cheap to 1K. And those who wanted options sought out alternatives and that’s part of the history of the “1/55 Revisited.” I for one promote and support those who want to continue and support the mold. At one point I recasted many of the original molds and sold a few here when it was acceptable. I even recasted a VE-1 ElintSeeker Kit in Task3 which is very laborious and time consuming material. And was provided in color and natural. Those who have these kits can attest to their longevity and quality. It was done as a bridge and was never done to derail threads. As previously recommended, new “for sale” threads can be started. But there are other options to create interest as well... Starting your own WIP progress thread and develop a following of your work could promote your work and provide interested parties your a view to your talent, capability, and intent as you take them through your process. If you then see there is plenty of interest, then you can start a “for sale” thread. I am in no ways a mod, and do respect the work involved behind the responsibility. But I also respect others threads and try to maintain the course of the topic as that is the point of the thread. Does it deviate from time to time sure, but it is typically done without intent and then is brought back. This occurs by the actions of mid and yes many times from those who are interested in thread. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks Jenius.

Macross DYRL 1984 film promotional materials
nightmareB4macross replied to jvmacross's topic in Collectors
The item came in a box, in the box was a baggie holding the contents. The baggies was not a channel-lock type (ala Ziplock). -
Excellent display. It’s really great to see the full DYRL skull team on display.
-
Hot Damn!!! That’s NNNIIIIIICE!!!
-
Your choice. Thank for sticking to the subject. It is much appreciated.
-
I get what you guys are hoping to achieve with this, but those who are here are looking for history on the 1/55. Please post a link here and guide interested parties to your sales thread and you can realize your needs there. Let’s try not to inundate this thread with off topic discussion. It really defeats the purpose of what this thread was developed for. Thanks.
-
Please move this to the for sale thread. I would like to keep this to the corresponding subject matter. Thanks.
