i don't think it's worth getting the blu ray if the movie has been edited. it is way expensive for any movie.

i guess i will have to just be happy with the animeigo dvd released. paying 500+ bucks for the hd version is so expensive i rather use that money on something else

no, i prefer if yamato finish up the 1/48 with ostrich and elintseeker that would be awesome

this is the info and instruction that hurin provided to us a few yrs back. enjoy http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=13642&st=0&p=264252entry264252 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=13441

just repeating what hurin said Posted 23 October 2006 - 01:31 PM Okey-doke, here we go. . . The FX Perfect Edition of DYRL is itself a bootleg. The only official DVD of DYRL is the Region 2 DVD by Bandai/Emotion reviewed here. However, the FX DVD is not a digital "rip" of the official Bandai/Emotion DVD. So there are differences in quality between the Bandai/Emotion DVD and the FX DVD. Though the FX DVD does have a very nice picture, it's not quite as vibrant as the official DVD. The sound on the FX DVD also has quite a bit more "hiss" in the soundtrack. Having said that, the FX DVD is actually the better choice for those who will be watching the DVD on a computer since Bandai/Emotion mangled the mastering of the official DVD in such a way that it shows a lot of interlacing artifacts when played back on anything but a quality table-top DVD player in a couch/TV environment. Please see the review for details on this. As for bootlegs of the bootleg. . . who knows. If the bootleg of the FX bootleg is a "digital rip" of the FX DVD, then there should be no quality loss at all. And, indeed, it might even still work with the "subtitle upgrade" procedure linked in my signature. wink.gif [Edit -- See ValkryieExchange's post immediately above. These newer bootlegged FX DVDs are apparently different and not based on the FX DVD at all.] Best, H

i say 350 would be a fair price for the current economy, but i can only dream it will come true

wait and save up is a good thing . not having money when it comes out would not be fun

wow, the macross looks very big. at last, the last toy i will buy ever and it's worth the wait all these years for it

i really like macross II from episode 1 to 4. episode 1 and 2 got good drawing, but not that great. then art work or drawing really got better between episode 3 and 4 and you would think it would get better after, but i think either they ran out of money or they used the newbies to finish episode 5 and 6. the drawing quality really got worst and worst except toward the end when ishtar is singing on the bridge. over all, macross II had a promise to be a good sequel. i didnt know at first that it was a six episodes OVA series. i thought it would be at least 30 episodes TV series and would be as good as the original macross.

i think i am seriously done with buying toys after i buy the macross. its time to start saving serious money for other stuff for me buying a house and start saving for early retirement but that wouldnt be so bad because the macross looks so totally awesome

i wouldnt buy the low viz mr chogokin. the cracks on the low viz are on the important spots of the valk. that being said, the valk is already fragile to break from the cracks. most likely you dont even want to transform the low viz if you were the buy the toy. i say stay away from this nearly broken low viz and wait for a better condition one later.

guess will have to talk to NB4M about that

65 cm? thats 2.13 ft wow, this maybe the last toy i will get for macross but if yamato were to make 1/48 elintseeker and ostrich, then that's a different story

the macross discs are very thin or weak if you compare it to a regular blank dvds. for a company like animeigo, i expect a better quality dvds than these. i used to be a big fan of animeigo becaue they were the anime company that produced good sub and they were the best back in the good old days. i dont thnk i can say the same as now. kyatsu

at least by buying these casing, it will prevent the five good discs from cracking. man, but still four are badly cracked. kyatsu

i know i can burn a backup copies of the discs, but i am just talking about how expensive it was for me to get the set (mind you it was around $250-$300) and i was making like 10 bucks an hour back then. since i paid a lot of money for the set, i expect a good quality product in return you know? i really cant believe how brittle the dvds are. kyatsu

well, you can play it on a dvd player and its ok. but once you are done watching it and you want to put it back in the dvd case, thats where the problem will start and always going to be. the dvd will only get worst when you try to take out of the casing and putting it back in. also, you cant play it on your laptop because you have to snap the dvd into the dvd player on the laptop (i watch movies all day at work on my laptop while i work). i think the quality of the animeigo macross dvds are very bad. if you compare it to a regular dvd, you can see how thin it is. kyatsu

my bad. seven yrs ago. i am pretty upset cuz the set wasnt cheap. i was happy that i bought it back then cuz it was restored and i prefered the japanese audio with the sub more than the english dubbed. man, i found that four discs are cracked. not very happy with animeigo right now about the quality. kyatsu

i bought this set when it first came out and i dont watch it that often. it's been eight years since i bought it and i found cracks around the center hole of the dvds. do you guys have the same problem? kyatsu

my friend matt donnan and his gf sponsored the show. they asked me to post this on macrossworld.com if you guys are free this saturday night and want to see a show, stop by and check it out. kyatsu

hey nick, put me down for one mw07 t shirt (medium) in the brown color t shirt. let me know how you want me to pay for it. kyatsu

i think had sam raimi just focus on harry and venom and totally ignore sandman, spider-man 3 could have been a good movie. they have to include harry based on the second spider-man. there's no way around it. or maybe the movie should have just focus on harry and peter and save venom for the fourth movie? i think that would have been a better story just to have spider vs harry. i didnt see the need to add sandman in the third one. i didnt think he was necessary at all. venom was not given enough screen time at all. they wasted it on sandman. lately i have been noticing that it's getting harder and harder to find a good movie to watch. i hope bourne ultimatum will be good or else i will probably stop watching a movie in the theater for the rest of the year.

i saw spider-man 3 today and i have to say it's horrible. i thought having harry and sandman would be enough villians in the movie, but the studio decided to add venom in the end and that totally made the movie way too long, boring and basically suck. i dont know if there will be a spider-man 4, but i think spider-man 3 pretty much lost my interest in any future films.

viz published gunhed manga back in the 90's. there's a total of 3 books for the series. i rented the liveaction movie at tower records (back when i was still going to college) and i have to say it's so horrible. the manga is pretty good and very nice art cover. if it's not too expensive to get, i recommend you getting it. i used to leave the manga around my coffee table back at my old apartment, but once i moved to my current place, i just boxed it away and man i want to read it now. kyatsu

i have a question to ask. i remember someone recommended a site that sells gunbuster dvd set for a good price, but i dont remember what site that was. if you guys can help me out, i appreciate it, kyatsu
