    I don't think I'd care that much if they took a couple liberties with how things connect.

    The Paladin has a new head? I was thinking they just needed to make the lance and change the backpack part so the lance could be held in fighter mode.

    Oh JM 2.0... if only you had been able to live longer!
  4. jenius
    Yes, so far we've only seen something fan made but I have my fingers crossed for a Tamashii announcement!

    I thought the blue would get more gray but it's getting darker. I'm still very on board. i wish I could get the samples... they'd be fun.

    PM please... Blacklist if you aren't satisfied in the end.

    What's it matter if the toys are the same design or not? I think the point was lost along the way. Anyway, I'm sure we all expect this toy to be the appropriate size also.

    Do you spend a lot of time defending George Lucas?

    Ya know, Yamato started doing the YF-19 that Arcadia released because the VF-19Kai and other releases were received so well. Maybe Bandai will give us new Mac7 valks if the DX VF-19Advance is received really well. I know we all are dying for more Fire Valkyrie options.

    That's some unkind rounding. At 1/60 scale the V2 VF-25 would stand 24.16CM tall. The toy stands 24CM tall... so almost spot on 1/60. Similarly, fighter mode should be 31.2CM long and it pretty much nails it. So it's fair to say with exception of the Monster, the DX scale is 1/60, not 1/65ish.

    Dare to be stupid!

    Have you tried a piece of Scotch tape to assist you?

    Oh you guys pretending like you wouldn't jump on a new VF-1... I have no such delusions. The V2 VF-1 is also six years old now... it's only a matter of time before a new toy trumps it. Also, how sweet would it be to see it animated again? C'mon Kawamori... DO IT! I think you guys might have Bandai a little wrong. It's not so much that they're overly risk averse but more that they're profit-aware. Unlike a Yamato or Arcadia, Bandai chooses not to make something when they choose to make something else. "Do we want to print another Gundam this month or should we spit out a Macross toy?" You could see where this leads to fewer variants with Bandai. It's not that they're so scared of not making money on a less popular variant... they just might think they could make more money selling some other product. At the end of the day the point remains the same, it's very doubtful Bandai would go as nuts with releases as Yamato did... but let's not forget Bandai gave us a lot of those variants first so ti's not inconceivable. I'm going to disagree with you M'Kyuun on the team work theory. Bandai certainly has room at the top to go nuts on a high end product and Bandai is just as capable of paying the design teams Arcadia would use. The best case scenario would be for Bandai to have competition proving that Macross is a healthy enough franchise to go a little nuts and still be profitable. Yamato did that for a while but apparently got a little carried away with it. It's kinda doubtful if Arcadia has even moved the meter. I would love to see Arcadia feel a niche though of high-end made-to-order obscure designs if they can find a way to do that profitably.

    You're making a lot of assumptions though. The 19advance may have been delayed a lot because of Arcadia and Bandai may indeed be upset they didn't get the vf1 license when yamato folded.
  15. jenius
    No use speculating yet but I'm very curious to see what will happen. I fear for Arcadia especially after the YF-19 being released while Bandai was undoubtedly working on this bird.

    I heard the plot is that thirty years in the future protoculture makes the mecha come alive and attack people. Nah, I'm just goofing, the truth is gonna be that the Midichlorians were all knocked unconscious by the second death start explosion but now they're emerging from their coma and they are pissed.

    Can't get a license that's not available. They would have had to sponsor a show. Speaking of which, it's very possible Bandai could lock out Arcadia of all things Macross depending on their sponsorship of the next show. They didn't last time but Arcadia doesn't have the sway with BW that Yamato did.
  18. jenius
    WHat what!

    If anyone needs me, I'll be playing with vector sigma.
  20. jenius
    So since MP-10 EVA wasn't available via the Japanese stores does that mean it's a Hasbro Asia release? Edit - Never mind, i see it's a Tokyo Toy Show exclusive.
  21. jenius
    It sounds like a clearance issue, something is getting in the way somewhere along that side. Wish I could see it in person to help.
  22. jenius
    Mine already yellowed!
  23. jenius
    So if you weren't into Generations but instead like the Masterpiece line you'd have a CHUMP collection. Hmmmm.
  24. jenius
    Can't pay until I get home from work .

    I hope it has a traditional canopy and I don't think the line art really proves it one way or another.
