  1. I'm reading through this long thread and was wondering if this YF-19 will be worth the $$$. Any idea on how it'll be compared to Yamato's toys? I had the Yamato VF-11B and practically destroyed it trying to transform it, ugh. I hadn't bought a Macross toy in over ten years but this new YF-19 has my interest peaked!!
  2. I finished Attack on Titan. I hope there is a second season!!
  3. The original Robocop's theme was 'the future of law enforcement.' Interestingly the new Robocop has a better grasp on that theme when it comes to drones and surveillance. Pretty scary stuff if you value civil liberties. I doubt we'll see anything like a Robocop in our lifetime but what we saw in the Tehran scene may not be far that off.
  4. I'm into episode 10 of Attack on Titan. Holy crap the series is addictive and I can see why it's so popular.
  5. I just finished watching Zipang. Good modern naval military series with sci-fi/time travel looped in. Gives real insight into post-WW2 Japanese thinking and culture.
  6. Saw the Robocop remake yesterday alone as the wife isn't a sci-fi fan, lol. Anyways, the film had a great cast, action and well directed plus its thought provoking but lacked the R-rated soul of the original. The more I think about it the more I like the reboot and I can look past the missing R-rated gore as young boys and girls should see this film. So yes, I will buy it for a dollar!
  7. Yeah, I have the live movie on DVD. Decent effects and sets. I'd tolerate the acting if it wasn't for the weak plot. What a waste. Amazing how 2199 was able to surpass all that though.
  8. I'd be cool with a live action Akira if they used Japanese actors and Hollywood effects!
  9. Thank you. I understand they would be expensive and would only buy a couple of pieces and frame them as art for my home. It'd be ideal if Shoji Kawamori and Haruhiko Mikimoto had a studio to sell the art for them
  10. I'm a long time Macross fan and looking to buy original Macross art by Shoji Kawamori and Haruhiko Mikimoto. I saw they had their own PR sites but didn't see anyway to contact them directly. I tried Google and so what is my best option besides flying to Japan? I checked the WTS section here but didn't see anybody selling original art. Any help to get me started would be great!!
