  1. It's much easier when you say "I paid for half the house, I get to use half the shelf in the living room that you happened to help yourself to".

    She got angry, but then she realized I was right and I get to use two top shelves of a four-shelf unit in our living room for "Guy stuff". Thus it's tastefully decorated with Macross Toys

  2. The conversion would prolly be too intensive.

    For both VE-1 and VT-1:

    Wings

    Heads

    Cockpit + Canopy

    Chestplate

    Then fastpacks....

    Legplates

    FP Front for the Elint

    Completely new backunits for the Ostrich

    Mounting unit + extra thruster for back-unit

    A way to lock the Back Unit down, with FP's on, Using the Canon mounting position (Vertical Stabiliazers extended), all while maintaining durability and poseability.

    Oh..I forgot the whole freaking Radar Suite for the Elint O_o

    I guess if you kept the VT-1 Canon and unable to goto Battroid, it'd be possible to worksomething out, but if you made them transform you'll need some way to get that integral heatshield in.

    The mere weight of all that resin would prolly turn your VF-1 into a floppy mess over time.

    Then add to that, cost :0 the 1D alone was 80, this much more intensive mod would prolly go a lot higher, say, 200-250

  3. Almost all my valks are displayed on my shelf. All with fastpacks are in fighter, non-fp are seen in all 3 modes.

    Only 1 valk sits off the shelf. It's an extra 1J hikky for flying around the house :p

    FP's make valks too hard to play with or transform btw :p

  4. UFO Aftermath and UFO Aftershock are actually pretty fun games.

    The Tactical Combat part of the game was a blast and really made both games fun for me.

    Only problem? As with X-com, the maps start getting reused eventually and it can get a lil stale.

    There's also UFO: Afterlight out as well. It has much, much, MUCH more micro-management than the previous two games and is quite a b@tch to learn and play, but it's also a blast. ONly problem? YOu can't freaking name your own toons >_<

    This old-school UFO game is looking good though, I'm gonna try it out for sure :)

  5. Honestly I started to feel the same way about Yamato's Products once I started collecting completely different toys from other companies and was absolutely astounded at how cheap they were. Like literally, for the price of what some local retailers are charging for 1 yammie (150 bucks), you can get half a collection regular toys :o

  6. I played 1, 2, 3 and 4 like crazy.

    Best team is the Paris Team, they also have the best looking koubus :)

    As for Part V... it still sits in my cabinet, unopened. Kinda hard to play a Japanese dating game at home when:

    1. Your Fiance Lives with you

    2. Your Fiance is Japanese

    Besides, I could never get over the red-headed cowboy girl with samurai sword thingy.

    btw...

    Machinegun Sister = best mini game, eva!

  7. Man, Valis 3, I remember that game.

    I actually have the JP version of Arcus Oddysey, that game rocked (^_^)

    Target Earth was also a romp, we liked how the CF suits were brown, just like in macross :) The ending cinema with a kagillion brown CF"s downing cruisers was the high point.

    Assault Suit Leynos II for Saturn.... WTF it made me want to break my saturn multiple times.

    Assault Suit Valken 2 was really fun. Lots of front-mission-esque battles and the suits were pretty cool.

    As for Warsong (Langrisser)

    Man you missed out on a lot :( Quite a few titles came after that and they were all pretty good :)

    Same thing happened to Shining FOrce III on Saturn.

    1 came out in US, 2 and 3 never made it and it pissed me off so much I imported and couldn't play them fully until 5 years and a Bachelor's in Japanese later lol.

  8. I took a long hiatus from Macross..then all the sudden Hasegawa VF-1's came out and I cleaned out all my 1/72 modern jet fighters for Macross.

    Then I wanted something variable and was able to resist 1/48's until one day I was at an Asobit City that was closing and bought 1 stealtha nd lv2 for 1/2 off :0

    Ever since that stupid impulse buy I've been hooked >_<
