    So I guess the question for all you matte fans is how many more yen per toy would you be willing to pay?

    I like my toys to look like toys. Gloss FTW! Make models matte.

    If it's ever on sale for 50% off i'd probably grab it.

    Don't reissue, give us a flashback version.

    The post has some new pics but most the content is getting buried now since there are several releases. I'd scan the post for pics and then check out the video (there's a shortcut to my channel in my sig and the video is embedded at anymoon).

    I'm late to the party but I finally got my RVF-25 review up (includes an HD video review). I'll probably do the 25A review next month as it's currently sitting in private warehouse.

    I feel like you're talking about Bandai before the renewals started coming out. The renewal VF-25 is 1000x more fun than transforming a VF-17 Yamato toy where the game is to try to do it without bleeding. The YF-29, VF-171, and VF-25 toys are also really good in fighter modes and battroid modes. I will say that only the VF-25 in that bunch is really 'fun to transform' though and all probably do get loose although my toys tend to stay in fighter mode and when I have transformed them recently all were holding up pretty well. Let's also not forget that Bandai tends to get input or straight up buy designs from the same team that Yamato does (although both manufacturers probably provide the price points they're trying to hit which helps determine how complex the design is).

    As I understand it, the YF-19 project is a Yamato project but Yamato had commissioned a third party to do the work, the third party completed the work and I think they even delivered it to Yamato. The plans were then sold to Arcadia. Arcadia then put the project on hold while they acquired the Macross Plus license. After securing the license they purchased molds and moved forward.

    Kinda looks like Prowl is having sex with a GoBot

    Kyekye, we'll be neighbors! I'm shopping in that same stretch and just north of it. I currently live in Redwood City. The good news for shopping in this neighborhood is... well no, there's no good news at all. All the dotcom millionaires have made affording things very hard.

    I'm going to do a transformation video when my Focker comes in. That way I can show the very minor differences between my Focker with the old crotch mechanism and the Focker with the new one. I've gotten a lot of requests to break apart my Yamato V2 post and it's not going to happen. Everything is merged together for the following reasons: 1) They're all the same toy, the differences are 90% cosmetic and 9% packaging and extras. The other 1% is the changes between the special releases like 2 seaters. 2) It takes surprisingly few sentences to say "this release included an extra part" 3) I think it makes the site easier to navigate. Imagine if you were new to Macross collecting and I had like 4 different Yamato/Arcadia V2 posts (1 for 2 seaters, 1 for supers, 1 for standard releases, and 1 for Arcadia toys), it'd kinda suck to have to go to each one. 4) More posts = more maintenance Of course there are some negatives so I get why a lot of people would like to see more broken up posts. You don't want to have to wade through information about every Yamato release if all you care about is the first Arcadia release. It's also true that the post is now very large and has TONS of pictures. That's why I'm going to be doing more video reviews like this one. The video reviews also don't get updated so they sit out there as an opinion in a snapshot in time where as the posts get updated as the toys become increasingly obsolete.

    Very similar, but in Shadow Chronicles they reunite.

    I think flaming sword will be the sword that comes with the King Grimlock toy.

    Awesome to hear they have the SDF-1 mold. I'm shocked there aren't a whole bunch being listed on eBay right now by people who know they'll be able to pick up a reissue later and make a quick buck now. I'd be pretty surprised if we see a VF-17 again, seemed like that one was just as much a dud as the VF-11 toys. It seems like a VF-0 renewal is the next NEW mold we'll get. In the meantime it sounds like we can expect lots of reissues which is cool by me. I do think it's funny the official stance is that they won't go nuts with reissuing offbeat paint schemes but they were happy to give us that 30th anniversary paint scheme.

    Primarily it's because I don't have any toys left with broken shoulders so I haven't had a need for those particular accessories and generally the site is stuff I've used and fiddled with. Besides, Veef has access to collectiondx which has orders of magnitude more traffic than anymoon. I don't own anymoon.com so I set it up this way in case I got kicked off. Fortunately, the site now generates almost exactly as much revenue as it costs to host so it's unlikely I'll be forced to move it. I think it's just because my video reviews are boring! That is why I make the transformation videos separate... I'm afraid I'd put everyone to sleep otherwise.

    You missed it? It was completed in convincing fashion.
  19. jenius
    Yeah but MrK is still an Arcadia team member that would want people to buy the toy so it still makes sense to say you're sorry for not being into it.

    Hey everyone, my review is up on anymoon and a video is on Youtube. Check 'em out!

    Does the Megatron masterpiece reissue mean we should all lose hope of a Megatron 2.0? Also did Megatron get the KO treatment? I've noticed a very steady stream of Megatrons from China on eBay. Finally, I also noticed that there are KOs of the masterpiece tapes circulating just as a heads-up.

    I figured it out, it was the 'other' section of the criteria, at some point I accidentally changed it to: just threads I follow.

    I think it must be with my settings. This is happening on my phone, PC, and tablet.

    I'm having a bizarre issue lately. When I hit the "view new content" I always just get a message telling me there is no new content. What did I break and how do I fix it? Even if I click "show me everything from the last week" I still get a 'no new content' error.
  25. jenius
    They could do any G1 and I'd be thrilled. Galvatron and Megatron 2.0 are highest on my wish list for Decepticons. Then any of the combiners would be cool.
