Same here VM. I think MacrossWorld just "Pulled me back in!"

I actually quit collecting in 2009 but Macross World made me restart my collection!

Hey >EXO<! Is black the only color available?

Got my fourth and fifth binders about 6 weeks ago, so I think I should be set for the remaining issues.

Thanks go out to Kirik, EXO, sneakers, JAC at UCLA and anyone else that helped to make this an awesome con. Looking forward to next year!

After a 15 year hiatus from making model kits, I decided to dust off my mediocre modeling skills last month. I built a 1/100 Destroid Phalanx that I will enter in the customs contest. Please judge accordingly.

Actually I beleive it's Memo or ever Aaron (MechTek)(spelling) that knows Tommy.

Yup, that would be Memo.

Any updates for the Sourpuss tees, Jasonc?

Fresh! I have a 1/100 Glaug on the way to me. Too bad I don't have the skills to build one like this kick a$$ custom. Thanks for posting sirhenk.

...Also separate question, did Tamiya ever release that white putty?

Why yes they did. Released almost two years ago according to HLJ.com.

Hey, just gauging interest here from those setting this up and whatnot, but as you see my avatar, my wife did the design, and I was thinking of making t-shirts with this one, and perhaps a Hikaru one. I'm just gauging interest now, and seeing what the general consensus would be for them. Anyways, just thought I'd throw that out there. Let me know.

No, I wouldn't mind Ol' Sourpuss on my chest. That orange-red "rust" color in the background for your avatar would be pretty choice for the t-shirt. Maybe starting a separate topic for this, Jasonc?

YesAsia.com is having a sale. Good time to nab this set of figures for $29.99, that's $3.75 a pop! This goes for over $50 plus shipping at HLJ. You might wanna do a search for Macross and find some other deals. Just stay away from the Yamatos, they're way overpriced. You also get a mini capsule toy from a collection of your choice with two or more eligible items.

This is the first time I order from YesAsia, so I hope my shipment gets here. Anyone had previous orders with this company?

eriku, the blues actually match up! If I were you I would get the Max TV-1A, but don't leave him headless! Just wait for a recast of the head. Hopefully one of our expert resin-heads will make some.

Awesome cool custom, destroid! How exactly do you make that smoke trail for the missle? I'm looking to make Tomahawk and Phalanx since I made my 1/100s Defender and Spartan (which look toit in front of Koenig Monster) about 14 years ago. Gotta have the whole destroid posse.

Just checked and there is a difference. DYRL 1A laser is 35mm and TV 1A is 45mm. No wonder we were having a bi#ch of a time. Also noticed that the TV head is a bit beefier than the DYRL one.

I also noticed that the inner intakes were painted gray, nice surprise indeed. The 1A head just looks perfect, and I also had trouble getting it through to battroid. Had to take out the instructions, it shows the angles the front and back plates have to be in order for the head to get through without damaging the laser.

I couldn't decide myself, so I ordered all three versions and got them today from hlj. dreadnought, definitely go for the Nora paint scheme, if you can only get one. It'll really pop out at you compared to other canon valks. Gotta say I'm really happy with these SV-51s, all are solid, beautiful, plus an included display stand! Thank you Yamato.

Awesome customs nylcbv! I would really like to see those custom Focker FPs on battroid mode.

Wow! That VB-6 looks awesome with those decals. I definitely would buy a set for my Koenig, anyone know where to get one?

Hey promethuem5, I'm willing to pay for one of those sheets when ever you make it. Any chance for the Defender and soon to be released Phalanx decal sheets?

How about "Everyone! Listen to MY SONG!" instead of just "Listen to my song!" it makes it sound more demanding. Also, it doesn't have to be an exact translation as long as it gives you the same emotion and meaning. Don't be afraid to change dialogue to fit the dubbing and colloquialism.

Another suggestion Hikuro, "Everyone, sing along!" Thanks for doing all these great dubs.

Hopefully Roy doesn't forget that Hikaru is down there and decides to land in fighter mode.

HOO-RAH!!! Guess I can join the 1/48 TV-1A Max club! I just won mine on ebay. Also used the St. Patty's Day eBay 10% discount, so pretty anxious to get this ace of the skies.

NB4M, come on! Yamato goes to all that trouble to mod the DYRL 1A head to a TV accurate version and you attach DYRL arm FPs?

emerson, well said. 1/48s are the shiznit!

It's also red in the painting for the conversion kit and Tenjin's new art for Macross Chronicle.

I really like how my two MC binders look next to each other. So it's gonna be binder 1- mecha, binder 2- characters, binder 3- timeline/history, binder 4- technology/worlds, binder 5- art/songs/merchandise. I'm guessing that they'll include those binder stickers 3 and 4 in issue 21.

For those that are counting, that's 4 versions per destroid so far.

Tomahawk standard

Tomahawk weathered

Tomahawk OD Green

Tomahawk OD Green weathered

Vostok 7

So when is the weathered Tomahawk supposed to be released? Thinking of getting the set of anime colored destroids with factory weathering.
