  1. I hope it has some differences from Takara's MP-11, like maybe a lighter gray or something.
  2. Alien has a bad case of the Robotechs, it's a big universe but the only stuff that matters happens to, or because of, one tiny group.
  3. I think they're hoping to make a cannon fodder repaint some day so they were worried about going too light or too gray.
  4. I run a site called anymoon.com. I don't have reviews of every Macross toy ever made.... but most of them are there. I encourage you to check it out. I haven't reviewed the Arcadia YF-19 yet... but I'm about to once work lets up a bit.
  5. That isn't giving me any sort of "must buy" tingles.
  6. Arcadia should be proud of how crisp they can get their molds... but they also should scale it back. a very minor rounding in a few places would barely be perceivable and would lessen injuries to the user and the toy itself.
  7. Does it matter? It's almost certainly vaporware and if it's not it won't be out for years. I also find his answers.... dubious.
  8. Some of it is probably "This will draw blood" warnings.
  9. A monster in an aquarium, I love it. Someone needs to make a sunken Prometheus for our fish tanks.
  10. Takara MP-10 Gift-set (Japan), September 2011, 22,000YEN Hasbro MP-10 Gift-set (USA TRU exclusive), November 2012, $119.99 Takara MP-10B Black Prime, March 2013, 12,800YEN Takara MP-10 Gift-set (Asia), September 2013, 22,000YEN (included Display Stand) Hasbro MP-10 YOTH Gift-set (USA), March 2014, $119.99 Hasbro MP-10 Gift-set (Asia), November 2014, $159.99 (included Vector Sigma) Takara MP-10A Bathing Ape Prime (Japan), November 2014, 18,144YEN (includes tax) Takara MP-10 Evangelion (Japan), November 28, 2014, 25,000YEN (includes tax) Takara MP-10 Gift-set (Japan reissue), May 2015, 22,000YEN Found a link to the toy at BBTS: http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=TAK11744&mode=retail Looks like we were discussing it here around page 60. This was when the exchange rates sucked so this toy cost nearly $300 shipped... ouch!
  11. I need help from someone who has the most recent Takara reissue of MP-10 (came with a lame display stand). I've noticed that Hasbro upgraded the front supports on the trailer (the supports that allow the trailer to stand flat when not attached to Convoy) to have a little lip which makes them much easier to pull down. On the first TT MP-10, they don't have this lip so getting those supports down is a total pain in the butt. Does the reissue of MP-10 that came with display stand have the Hasbro lip added? I would assume it does since MP-10 Eva has the lips added. I'll try to get pics up later if anyone is confused.
  12. Yeah... I'm still waiting on their 1/100 VT-1 and VE-1 sets.
  13. That was my brother's ring tone for a long time (we have a friendly but competitive relationship). My doorbell is currently the children's lullaby version of Nine Inch Nail's Sin.
  14. Well that label says 1J Max GBP so presumably you get the valk plus the armor for $70. That would be cool. Perfect news for the guy who just said he wanted a 1J Max. I wish toys worked out that way for me!
  15. We don't know a whole lot but here's a link to the thread where the news first was delivered: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=41926
  16. With Bandai making their 19 I think it's unlikely Arcadia will go back to the well any time soon.
  17. They are making a new version of that line presumably later this year so if you can you should wait, you'll probably get a better toy cheaper.
  18. Big differences, they won't fit. See anymoon.com for more info.
  19. Ugh, I totally disagree on the 11. It was good for its time but it could use a rebirth with better articulation and a more secure shield.
  20. Wow, looks like Amiami has some Ozmas Renewals to unload fairly cheap: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VF-25S-Messiah-Valkyrie-Ozma-Lee-Custom-Renewal-Ver-Macross-Frontier-/301526391278?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item46345f99ee
  21. I think that Robotech fan is conveniently forgetting the actual music in Robotech to instead focus on the background music. I love Robotech's background music, it makes great cell phone and doorbell chimes. The singing in Robotech though... wow.
  22. Ah I see! I guess I really will have to buy this newest wave and compare the plastic to the original releases.
  23. Uh, they did make a 1J max... it's in series 2.
  24. As I recall, Mr. K at Arcadia went out of his way to say the 0D wouldn't be backward compatible with the Ghost, that's why I would hold my horses on that one. Also, we don't know that Arcadia bought the ghost molds from Yamato. We know a lot was left behind... but I think the only thing we know for sure is that the 1/48 mold didn't make the move... everything else is a question mark. You're right though, you can throw the fold booster on the Arcadia 19 toy.
