    As said above these are Robotech Toys, not Macross Toys. Also sometimes Transformers toys. I know the basic toy is something that could be seen as the same, but Printed Names are different. Someone wanting a Max Jenius versus markings for Max Sterling and little things like that or box markings for those that don’t open a toy are things that matter to a collector. It would be a similar thing to a GI Joe collector in the U.S. versus the odd British version. It’s similar toys and some cases the same toy, just different name or packages that would turn off a collector Bassically look for Macross branded items in it’s dedicated toy section since this is a Macross site and if you don’t mind Robotech there’s a spot here or there are dedicated Robotech sites, but this site is where all the cool kids hang out, even the ones with Robotech nostalgia

    I’m the wrong person to ask here. I have a super hard time letting things go. I have several items that are taking up too much space, but I look at an item while opening a box and I just want to put it back on display.

    I loved Shipwreck heavy episodes when I was a kid.

    I don’t remember them in the show, but I didn’t watch much of the stuff in the 90’s or beyond. They may just be cashing in on the zombie thing so they can reuse figure parts that already existed

    It’s possible, the other classics haven’t had any additions. They recently hg kits for Vifamwith the Vifam, a Sirbine, the Dragonar 1 for example but haven’t even announced other kits for those, but those were web exclusives. The hg Macross line has so far 4 kits either in the works or have been released, but those are mostly standard releases so maybe since this Scopedog is a standard release they might do more kits in this line. I would like to see other kits for the previously mentioned lines and if they get serious about Votoms in hg, I will be tempted. It’s kind of a guessing game with Bandai in that you sometimes get one great kit and nothing else to go with it If you’re interested in smaller kits for Votoms, wave has been doing a fairly good job at getting a good amount of the designs out there in 1/35. The Bandai kits look more poseable though. Although to get a good complete scopedog with accessories, it may end up the same price since Bandai is only doing the basic unit and then web exclusives for the add ons By the way, if you have the 1/20 kit, I highly recommend building it. It’s a real joy with so much detail and avoiding seams and painting. If you’re a lazy builder and don’t want to do all the extra work, you can easily get away with just snapping it up and a little panel lining or add a little weathering

    Love Square or maybe Hexagonal love spirals

    I have that issue with a lot of ova additions to classic mecha. Like in Gundam 0083 the GM N type custom is a predecessor to the Gm 2 and 3 and looks way more advanced than either. Even the ones from 0080 look more advanced than stuff from ZZ Gundam. Or more recently there’s those new designs from Mospeada that look way more futuristic than the original designs even though it’s a prequel story. Sometimes these things end up being cool enough to forgive though and other times they look a bit too out of place. I do like the VF-0, but I don’t connect Macross Zero to any of the other shows or movies. I kinda think of it as a separate thing altogether like Tenchi. Sure it’s got Roy, but I don’t feel the connection and treat it like an alternate universe, like DYRL

    Too bad the snow serpent doesn’t have the old school tennis rackets

    Great looking Zeta.

    What do they mean by facial expression set in the first add on pack? And are there pictures of the decals for the second pack? I’m still on the fence over this scopedog since I already have a few wave kits and decals and none of these packs have a back pack. Also the cost is pretty high if you want everything and it’s not to scale with any other Votoms stuff that I already have I may get one out of curiosity, but probably not the add on packs since the basic kit has an open hand included, just too bad there’s no closed fist included unless you buy the add on. I’m also worried the side armor will fall off easily since it looks like a thin ball joint

    Probably that it was a Flash movie based around the worst Flash and starring a train wreck

    I thought it was odd that USA gundam store had the preorder up a whole month ahead of hlj, but honestly they probably were jumping the gun

    I’m probably spoiled by all the goofy old cartoon voices that Kraven had over the years, this voice just doesn’t sound right to me.

    The max type along with decal set are up for preorder at hlj

    Since it’s dial of destiny, it should be one with an old man dropping his fancy watch

    Sorry it a 50/50 chance of which powers you get from the animal. It’s either gonna be hyper speed with quick reflexes or super snooze with the occasional knocking things off the table powers

    It looks like crap, but the anime wasn’t that good to begin with, so it doesn’t really bug me
  20. Big s
    I can watch Buck even when it’s bad, but I just pretend galactica 1980 never happened

    I forgot about Sea Quest until you mentioned it
  22. Big s
    That’s just them trying to help out with the weathering with pre chipped decals
  23. Big s
    Totally, those lyrics were so simple
