    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.

    WHat what!

    If anyone needs me, I'll be playing with vector sigma.

    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.

    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.

    Mine already yellowed!

    So if you weren't into Generations but instead like the Masterpiece line you'd have a CHUMP collection. Hmmmm.

    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.

    I think most people are less concerned because it's bound to cost much less than the Arcadia. I'm more concerned about whether or not I'll be able to get one since it's bound to be another preorder madness event. Here's Bandai prices (MSRP) for those of you who want to guess where we'll end up: VF-25 14,000 VF-171 14,000 YF-29 17,000 YF-30 20,000 Arcadia YF-19 32,800 I'm gonna guess this one is 18,000 Yen.

    I thought the better solution would be to just put a groove in the leg that the wing could slide into.

    I haven't handled the Arcadia yet, does this basically mean get rid of high speed mode?

    I can't wait for fighter pics. I'm guessing the person who said this will look like the hi metal in fighter is probably right so we'll see how many people were truly offended by the hi metal in that mode.

    No matter what, market forces will prevail. Arcadia is basically an experiment right now. High end, limited quantity toys that appear to be attempts to really just appease the diehard Macross audience. I think the prices probably reflect the much lower production quantities but we'll all see how sustainable this approach is... especially if Bandai gets determined to squash them.

    I think some people might be getting a touch defensive to justify the cash outlay they did on their Arcadia toy. Don't worry, there are going to be lots of comparisons later... no need to get negative Nancy already.

    So, setting yourself up for extreme let down huh?
  18. jenius
    Well everyone can pose their Arcadia toy in fighter mode and their Bandai toy in Battroid mode. Best of both worlds achieved.
  19. jenius
    Yeah, the uniboob doesn't have the big gap of the Arcadia/Yamato offerings so that means fighter mode probably doesn't have the front bulge around the cockpit. Honestly though, I think it took me longer to warm up to the gap right under the thing's chin then it will to a little bulbous-ness missing from fighter.

    The new show should be about an early megaroad that lost contact and has a vf1 fleet and is battling rogue Zentraedi so we can get more SDF Macross toys.

    I hinted at this in the 0D thread, I wouldn't view this as a hit on Arcadia, but maybe the baby of some licensing confusion. Glad they decided to do it.
  22. jenius
    I'm gonna wait for the Bandai version. Jk

    I have a Paypal agreement with HLJ and haven't had issues but I think it means I always use my balance or bank account.

    Yeah, I think my "valk" was reinterpreted by my phone to be "call". So yes, the 171 would seem to be a logical CF unit still but that sucks for moving toys so.... moving on. Here is a thought, we know nothing about this series except for when it takes place right? It's doubtful that Megaroad is the only ship that vanished without a trace. This series could be about another colony unit that has lost contact. If that were the case, the cannon fodder valkyrie could be something already used (or with a lower number designation) rather than something new. Also, do we know how readily fleets have their fighters replaced? I know in 7 we see the introduction of the 17, the 19, and the 22 to a fleet with 11s. Would the 11 have been replaced by the 171 or would the 11s have been gradually phased out as fighters lost (be they 11, 17, 19, or 22) were replaced with 171s, 25s, or 27s?

    I'm excited also but I don't know when mine will ship, hopefully soon.
