  1. it does, but the BestBuy I went to in Oxnard, CA sold out of the one with the box, I had to get the Volume 1 DVD and soundtrack combo, not bad though. After finally seeing this show, its good, I like it. Now I gotta wait till March for volume 2.
  2. volume 1 of the DVD just dropped yesterday, I'm thinking of getting it since I'm currently without broadband and a computer.
  3. Sorry to make you adjust the map so soon already, but my move to CA from NJ has become permanent now. My new coordinates: Camarillo, CA latitude 34° 13' 16" longitude -119° 3' 47" thanks
  4. the campy story alone warrants a rental for me
  5. True that, that really throws me off with these newer TF shows, having Prime sound almost like G1 Peter Cullen Prime, but not. The new Galaxy Force figures look neat, though I can't convince myself to get anything other than Alternators. Somehow the complex transformation and realistic car modes makes them okay in my mind , whereas the garish colors of the Energon line put me off as too kiddie . Alternator/Binaltech Jets would kick ass .
  6. sorry to pull up an old thread, but I just finished watching Evangelion for the first time. searched and read over a couple threads I found here at MW and on other sites. I'm still thinking about/contemplating what exactly happenned at the end. Right now I don't hate the show and ending, but I can't say I like it either, because I'm still trying to figure it all out. I'm going to get End of Evangelion soon and see what that does for me. Just wanted to comment on the series w/o creating a whole new thread.
  7. I believe someone brought that up a couple pages earlier, but I could be mistaken. As far as I can tell, it's pretty much just a MP Prime painted white. It was shown with all the same accessories as MP Prime. So far its not worth it IMO, at least change the weapons HasTak.
  8. That'd be awesome to see some seekers. I just got Tracks this week, I really like him, he's just so heavily armed .
  9. well, it is that crazy time of year (well here in America at least). hopefully there's talk going on and designs being created and discussed
  10. I think you need to hack your cellphone and get a data cable to transfer files from your computer. Then you can put in your own ringtones, wallpapers, etc. I think the site is cellphonehacks.com or something like that
  11. Thanks. I'm familiar with Valkyrie Exchange. I'm not so familiar with TMPAnime. Is it possible to tell what the shipping charges would be with these two with out actually having to place a pre-order? If they are similiar I think I'd rather go with Valkyrie Exchange even though he's $5 more simply because I've heard many positive things regarding Valkyrie Exchange, not that I've heard anything negative about TMPAnime. Anyone here have stong feelings one way or the other? Feel free to PM me if you don't want to say something publically. Just wanting to be an informed consumer. Thanks, Carl They're both excellent e-retailers and I think both come in around the same price with shipping and all that (couple dollars difference, it's been a while since I've ordered anything Macross related ). As for shipping, you could probably e-mail them both. I highly recommend both (Neova is also a good guy to get Macross stuff from, he's in Hong Kong, so if you really need things when they first come out, talk to him Neova). Only thing is, Valkyrie Exchange mainly deals with valks and macross, he does have some other things too. TMPAnime has a wider variety of anime products.
  12. Hey guys, I was wondering if the QC will improve on later Alpha MPCs as they did on the later released Veritech MPCs. I'm currently looking at the Green and Shadow Alphas and might possibly buy one. I was always a fan of the Alpha and Cyclone since this is the only game in town aside from old Gakken Alphas. I just don't want to deal with the hassle that the Scott Bernard Alphas seems to entail.
  13. Word, Tecmo Super Bowl is still my #1 football game to play. You could sub players, change around your playbook, there were injuries. Sure, you'd get like 100 sacks a season and throw 100 yard touchdowns, but that was all part of the fun of the game. Frosh year, me and my roommate played a couple seasons at least first semester. He'd be a NFC team and I'd be an AFC team. Sometimes we'd be good teams, sometimes we'd pick crap teams. Sucks that EA took exclusive rights for liscensed NFL games. Sega was just putting it all together this season.
  14. I can't say I have a professional opinion as I don't own a gun, yet, and have only fired an AK-47 (in Vietnam couple summers ago when my family went back on vacation. that gun has quite a kick). From what I understand though, bullpup configuration allows you to make the gun more compact in size which gives the weapon operator more control and reduces recoil and gun climb. So from that standpoint I think they'd be good, though I'm no expert. The FAMAS and Steyr AUG are two other bullpup assault rifles (I think the Steyr Aug is a cool looking rifle).
  15. I'd go with the Bandai VF-1S, its classic .
  16. I've never watched a whole series in one session (not for lack of trying though ). Usually I go from 1 episode a day to 1 disc a day, time permitting. I did watch the first two Animego Macross Boxes straight through. Would've started the third, but sunlight coming through the window told me I ought to go to bed
  17. Dude, props to you for scoring a sweet deal, getting a 1/48, Fast-Packs and a 1/60 Strike for that price. 1/48s are totally awesome, but the 1/60s do have there charm. You can tell yourself you are happy with 1/48, but secretly you want more, possibly all of them . Especially now with the 1/48 GBP armor coming out.
  18. yeah, recently bought Silverstreak when alts were on sale at Target (right before Thanksgiving) and mine is a LHD version. Still looking for old Grimey.
  19. I'm gonna go with no on those custom heads fitting in MP Prime in Truck mode. The original head is a tight fit as it is already. Even so, those heads are pretty nice looking, and the hands are pretty cool too. MP Prime's hands are pretty articulated already, but those just go above and beyong. If the head/hands come pre-painted, I might consider getting a set.
  20. word, I remember seeing a thread about this crazy awesome gerwalk armor. hmm, now it seems I must buy more 1/48s for all this armor goodness
  21. I heard they're still having problems with the flight control systems on the Osprey. The whole tilt-rotor mechanism seems to be more problematic than originally envisioned. I'm not up to snuff on my aviation news (honestly, this post is what keeps me up to date on most things involving aviation actually ). Someone with more knowledge on the subject could clarify for me.
  22. I'd like to see a cool wallpaper using polidread's awesome valk girls.

    VF Girls

    Dangaioh, that looks pretty good for a wip, I'd like to see the finished product. I was wondering if you or polidread could use the ladies from Macross in these valk girls. I'd like to see Minmay, Misa, Millia (in her red VF-1J of course), Claudia, and the Bridge Bunnies . Also, even though this thread is for valk girls, I think a SDF-1 girl would kick ass ! Just a couple ideas for you guys, I know art takes time.
  24. Sounds interesting but everytime I hear "Warriors" being mentioned, I can only think of some 80s movie about gangs killing each other "Warriors, come out and play". Anyway, I was just watching History Channel show on the A-10 Thunderbolt (Warthog) and I noticed how the Avenger cannon when fired sounds almost like the Gu-11 gunpod. I just thought that was neat. Onto the actual topic now. If this has been brought up before, excuse me for not going back.through the entire thread A-4 vs F-5 (whatever versions you guys think match closest campabilities wise) In a close-in knife fight. I think the two are very evenly matched in this kind of battle.
  25. Toy still looks cool and interesting, but I think I'm waiting for someone here who's definately getting the Koenig Monster to snap some more close-up and detailed pics before I decide on this one. Right now it looks like either Koenig Monster or 1/48 VF-1J Hikaru me.
