    I was a member back then, we had some serious VHS tape trading going on via mail order ^_^
    Never any real meetups except once we all got together at one of the first Robotech conventions, think it was at the Disneyland hotel or somewhere in Orange County (California)???

    At some point all the older members went on a trip to Japan and toured Gainax when they were in production for Honneamise.
    Yeah, I totally missed out.
    No way I could have financed a Japan trip with my paperboy salary ~_^
    Don Yee (Rest in Peace) was one of the first Anime Mentors that I met through that group, and we still met up at times at con's until his unfortunate passing:

    Sorry if too much rambling....

    That's awesome, thanks for sharing! The question remains tho... who is John Gaydos?? lol

    That 1/100 VF-1D looks legit! If I were sitting on disposable income, I'd totally put in a bid.

    I still have plans to build a 1/55 VF-1D of my own... I'd just like a VF-1D head that didn't look like it was designed by a third grader in TinkerCAD. I'm legitimately surprised there isn't a good STL file out there.

    lololololololllllllll!!!!  Aint that the truth!

    Looking for info on the Uncut VHS release of DYRL circa 1995

    @Darkwater  Can we add another chapter to this one?

    If the most recent registrar of the Macross/Bionoids is Chicken Soup for the soul (16:07 in the video) in 2022....

    Well they are now chapter 7 bankruptcy (changed from the original chapter 11), so who wants to go in with me and buy one title from them? LOL!
    Come on everyone, lets do a GoFundMe and free this title once and for all for domestic release :)

    I am so lucky with these recent DX purchases, seriously WTH.
    Open the box and I have a broken tail fin.
    At least I can officially confirm that its molded in ORANGE.
    Bought from Mercari, so no one to help.

    Guess we'll see how well super-glue works.

    ouch!  at least with these VT-1s, the "broken parts upon arrival", aren't as bad as the YF-21s that just came out?  still, sorry to see your tail fin like that  :(

    Nice. Who did you order from? And I'm surprised you are buying into this scale? 

    howzit braddah Wade!  I ordered from Luna Park.  It's my first DX!  I thought you knew I always loved the Yamato 1/48s?
