treatment

this thread needs more Warhammer goodness!

I just went through the entire opening sequence of DYRL frame by frame and didn't see anything. I thought that I had found it around the 11 minute mark, but it turned out to be the missile variant of the Regult.

they're at the 10-minute mark, i.e when they're descending.

it's quite difficult to spot or take a snapshot in the old dvd-version (very dark), but the remastered-version provides a clearer albeit a bit grainy sequence. as you can see from the snaps i attached.

here's a quick jpg of it:

this guy...

always my fave.

So this poll is to see actual numbers.

Only vote if you actually own a V.2 Yamato 1/60 VF-1S.

FROM NOW ON A VOTE FOR BROKEN MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN EXPLANATION OR IT WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED A TRUE VOTE.

wasn't a topic like this already made?

why are you responding to a post from LAST YEAR?

amusing, but hey, now!

let's try to keep it macross-y.

the Warhammer in the trailer...

IS.

VERY.

FANTASTIC!

Wonder what other Unseens are they gonna put back in MW-5.

w000000000000000000000000000 hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

i say sell all of 'em 1/48s while you still can.

I pay for things don't want to say what but I mean if you need the money that's something else other then that its a waste.

I, uhh, accidentally this thread.

I mean - give Shadow Strikers some credit. He could be getting into something a lot lamer!

Pete

I dunno, man.

Maybe SS will be better off as a fan of Gundam. I mean, with all his talk about Bay, veritech and stuff, I'm pretty sure he'll thoroughly appreciate this gundam mecha you posted before:

no poo, dude.

you need to get Yamato to pay you a visit in how to do a proper display for them.

dude.

you're just trolling us all here by your continued use of that term.

you need to stop.

and this thread is quite redundant already.

why don't you talk about a specific toy from whatever Macross-series, instead?

dude.

seriously.

do us all a favor here at MacrossWorld forum.

stop using the term "veritech".

Jetfire was never animated nor included in the G1 tv-series. What you probably remember was the toy-version, which was a recolored/rebadged Takatoku Super VF-1S.

Skyfire was the one in the G1 tv-series. His toy-version didn't happen until the Classics was released just a couple of years ago or so.

i tell yah, guys.

Hikky-1S pics without any Strike-FPs attached???

that ain't right, man.

that is just so very wrong.

should be a bannable offense here at MW-forum.

obligatory strike-hikky pics:

Did you purchased them seperately on two different transactions? How long did SAL too before it reached the U.S.?

nope.

one transaction only.

I reckon SAL was the usual 10-days/-2-weeks for me, i.e. shipped on 6/18 per hlj, prolly arrived monday 6/29 and I picked it up today.

What part of the world was it shipped to? Is the $132.62 with shipping?

US.

and Yup. Shipping was included in that $132.62.

I thought i'd already mentioned before that SAL shipping-fee was 2960-y for the two items.

well, i finally received my order for the Hikky-1S plus FP-parts.

boy, do HLJ luv shipping it in two boxes:

not really sure why they had to be shipped in two boxes since, well imho, they could've fit both in a single shippiing-box and saved me some additional shipping-fees or something:

oh, well. damage was $132.62 (damn shipping fees), but am still quite happy that i finally have the 1/60 Hikky-1S Strike for a lot less than the normal hlj/msrp.

ok.

i've seen Jetfire leader-class at wally's last sunday. like 8 of them. for something so fugly, it's already all gone by today.

then there was Bumblebee Human Alliance edition for like $30. At wally's. i don't really see anything in it that makes it worth $30.

honestly, aside from Prime-v2, i really dont see anything in the ROTF-line to be purchase-worthy.

as such, i'm still not even sure whether to get Prime v2 or not.

I ended up paying 20$ on the SAL shipping for the vf-1a + sup/str parts dealy. I put the order in on Friday and had it go through on Tuesday with shipping, so turn around time is definetly a few days which isnt too bad

whoa! you only paid $20 for the valk+parts deal? which part of the world are you based?

The SAL-cost for mine was 2960-y for the same deal (1480 per box), which is about US$30 with the current sucky exchange-rate of 95-yen to a US-dollar.

Wonder how much EMS cost for the same deal. iirc, EMS usually starts at 4000-y.

As nice as this sale was, i'm really getting quite ticked off at HLJ for such a painfully slow order processing and shipping.

I know they're busy, but c'mon!

It's like they're letting my small order (just one valk+parts) sit and stew there until they get a better yen-to-dollar exchange-rate before doing any final processing and final shipping. I mean, I placed and received confirmation on my order when the rate was still at 98.5something.

Now the rate is at 95.77 (and possibly going down more) as of this writing and my order still hasn't final-processed/shipped so i still don't know how much wallet-damage SAL-shipping has dinged me this time. It's funny coz SAL is supposed to be cheap, but the horrid exchange-rate is really making it quite expensive more than necessary.

*sigh*

I still waiting for that backordered VF-1D but I did decided to get a VF-1S Hikaru but since the one with Strike parts is back ordered I had to make two separate orders of the VF-1S and parts

the sale does not really apply to the Strike-VF1S single-package. unless, of course, it was also previously listed as part of the sale prior to today ala the Defender.

so now we really have to buy 'em separately (parts + valk).

at any rate, the separate-package is a bit cheaper overall, but we'll have to see how much shipping-costs for it (sal and ems).

seems like there's a TF-exclusive being unveiled at

edit:

over now. happy 4/1!

hot damn!

that VF-11b with the FP looks mighty fantastic in all three modes!

too bad it's still too frickin' expensive at hlj-pricing. @&*($#&%

oh, and honestly, the Yammie-stands looks quite meh.

How good is Inferno's transformation? (I.E., how many parts to move around?)

Inferno's transformation is quite simple than even the deluxes.

The only thing that might make you look at the manual-sheet is how to hide the front tires.

Other than that, it's standard pull and twists/turn, and just fold some door-flaps to expose the arms.

Oh, and the head is spring-loaded! Just pull back the driver-side emergency-light.

I do wish his tires were made of rubber instead of plastic, tho. But that would've most likely jacked the price way up.
