"Defibrillator on legs" was used to compliment a girl here. Can't say much about the character interactions or interpersonal relationships this comic is trying to build, it just makes me chuckle every time I think about that line.
But speaking of defibrillators.
May 2018 Comic Book Sales to Comics Shops
Issue 9 - 7,022 sold
June 2018 Comic Book Sales to Comics Shops
Issue 10 - 6,664 sold
Volume 2 - 709 sold
July 2018 Comic Book Sales to Comics Shops
Issue 11 - 6,237 sold
These are units sold to the comics shops, not necessarily individuals. Still I am surprised they are more than 5 thousand. ^_^;
If the profit per book is $1 (or even less) they still earn thousands of dollars per issue sold.

Nice variation, but I have no budget for this.
The past few days I had been debating whether to use my extra money for gunpla or food. I chose food and then another home improvement expense comes up...Half the food money is suddenly gone!

Anybody else get their SoC FA Voltes V yet? Mine just arrived and first impressions are mostly positive. You’re basically getting what was advertised. A hyper poseable action figure with a good amount of diecast and a full complement of accessories.
I think the only thing that was surprising was just how small it is in person (roughly 7.5 inches). As for what I would’ve liked more: (1) for the base to hold all the accessories and not just the hand parts, (2) effect parts like lightning or fire blasts.
Otherwise I’m happy to finally have a new Voltes V toy in my possession after just having the original Godaikin back in the 80’s.
Mine hasn't arrived yet. I'm hoping DHL keeps their promised schedule and deliver it tomorrow.

I think you typoed there. Surely at this point there's only one.
Unfortunately I think there are still people who are buying this. Or else they would have stopped doing this already. I've come across promotional articles for this comic while browsing comics sites.

Got payment notification for Voltes V. Yay! HLJ now shows it as discontinued. So although I don't like the grey color, I'm happy I'm getting one. :)

So, this comic has lost its 'grittiness'?

BUT...
the main reason I am posting this is to tell you to delete your third picture... it has your address visible!
And it appears in the quotes too...wonder if those can be deleted.
Got my shipping notice from CDJ and my valk is now in the country. Not sure when the post man will deliver it though...

As if the movie adaption was not enough, there's a comic anthology by western artists that's coming in September.
https://kodanshacomics.com/series/ghost-in-the-shell-global-neural-network/
However, one of the artists makes a really good Shirow impression (minus Shirow's occasional sloppiness)
I haven't been impressed by western adaptations of Japanese manga/anime. Although I think it all depends on the writer/director. I haven't even bought the Japanese novelizations. So I'm interested only out of curiousity. Perhaps I'll bite if they do something like this Humble Bundle in the future.

I've got a new site in the works that aims to address that particular want... we hope to launch early next year, though it'll probably take years to get through all the Master File books.
If HG were to lose the Macross license and its associated trademarks, there wouldn't be any obstacle to SoftBank releasing these books in the US in English. That's an IF that's still 2 3/4 years down the road though.
Kickstarter, I think, would not be the best platform anymore... while Robotech RPG Tactics wasn't a proper Macross product, it's still a Macross-connected product that's connected to a big scandal on Kickstarter and it'll be years before that mess is gone and forgotten.
Great! another goodie to look forward to next year

I am disappoint. I was expecting something grittier to go with the comics! Shouldn't she come with a baseball bat?

http://news.toyark.com/2018/07/20/sdcc-2018-gallery-toynami-robotech-display-310128I notice some action figures illustration are in the same style like the variant cover comic

All the pics look good but I want the damn text in English! T_T
If the issues due to HG are gone (my wishful thinking), do you think these can be published in English? Would a Kickstarter work?

Here you go....in no particular order
Nice! Based on these pics I wanna buy it already. I'd love to but unfortunately my budget right now is focused on the toys and graphic novels and home repairs. Maybe I'll just get this one together with the new Mikimoto book that comes out next year. Thanks for the pics!

What does CYA stand for? is the only thing I'm wondering from this whole development.
I think it's Cover Your Ass, a pre-emptive move.

I wish they'd reissue the Tamashii Stage ACT TRIDENT PLUS. That one I'd buy.

Having no experience with Titan's other work I can't really judge the quality fairly... but it certainly feels like they're phoning this series in.
While the Robotech comic is really shitty, on the other end of the spectrum is Universal War One. Great sci-fi story, I bought the book since it was highly recommended. Of course as a Eurocomic it was first published elsewhere but it's evidence they can also publish excellent comics once in a while. That said I have no experience on the other stuff which seems to be mainly titles related to movie/TV/game franchises. And I doubt Titan does quality checks on the Robotech comics.

Looks like the Macross Mikimoto book release date has been rescheduled to 3/29 - 4/01 2019....
If next year I might forget about it by then!
But my wallet is happy...for now.

So glad I waited and passed on Mikimoto Haruhiko Character Works. Though if I got more money I'd probably still buy that in the future. Hopefully this new one doesn't get sold out too fast.

Is this sh9000 an AI connected to a cash dispensing machine that auto-buys multiples of HMRs? That's so futuristic!

If you are referring to my post from earlier, I was super careful, watched @Jenius video repeatedly and had the instructions out, but I think I got unlucky with a fault in the hinge area that nothing could of avoided other than leaving in the box and not touching, but that defeats the purpose if you ask me.
To give you an idea here are the shots of both sides, one has lumps in the plastic from a bad mold the other doesn't.
So that part was always going to get scratched huh? How would one remove such lumps to avoid scratching?

Wow if I understood this right you only had 7 days to purchase a ticket? @_@
I haven't been reading this thread for a while so it's only now I saw that concert link. Anyway, my $$$ have gone somewhere else so can't go. When is the next Frontier/Macross anniversary? I hope there's another big concert in the future.
