That's a bummer. Truly sorry to see this.

I appreciated Tony's (hilarious) input. 😁
Tony definitely adds some color whenever he makes an appearance. :)

There's a little bit of news this episode, but we're mostly talking about that OTHER mecha franchise ^^;
Look, everyone else is talking about Hathaway so we figured that we should too. 🙂

Finally had a chance to watch Hathaway last night, and definitely looking forward to hearing the Speakerpodcast's discussion. Thanks guys!

I'm actually more impressed with this little guy than the S.H. MonsterArts Godzilla from Godzilla vs. Kong that I recently picked up.

Not only a unicorn, but a prodigal son returning.
I was in the OG Low Vis Owner's Club back in the day. Unfortunately I had to sell it when my ex destroyed our finances.
I found a local dealer who had two of them, worked with him before at a couple of toyshows and cons.
Imagine my surprise when I opened it and found my mark on the inner tab.
My baby is home.Meant to be. Congratulations! :)

25 minutes ago, djdood said:My intention is to use the two Defenders I ordered (which should be arriving from Japan, next week) to donate their legs and hips. I'll then start work on 3D modeling Tomahawk and Phalanx upper-halves (and unique "plant ons" for the legs) with the goal of eventually 3D printing and/or scratchbuilding the parts. It will take a considerable amount of time as I would like to have at least some of the articulation and pose-holding the Bandai figures would have had and that's harder to pull off without factory production tolerances.
Still, having the legs already pre-made will save me a ton of effort. The "wasted" torsos and gun arms of the two Defenders will get turned into a SDF-1 "defense gun" diorama display (I recall some shots of Defender torsos and gun arms either mounted directly to the deck or with the destroids standing in "fox holes" where the legs were concealed).Definitely looking forward to seeing these when completed.
I started collecting the HMR line partly because I saw the Tomahawk (among others) on display, and Scorched Earth Toys awesome reviews of the line.
Still hoping for future HMR Macross releases though.

^Those Alien figures are awesome.

About 40 minutes in and realizing how much I've missed these podcasts. Thanks so much!

That would help keep hope alive a bit more for sure. :)

Glad to see that the HMR line has future releases lined up, as its keeping hope alive for something Macross related in the future. :)

Fingers crossed!

Seems strange not having any pending HMR releases at the moment, even if they're not Macross related.
As of October there have been five released this year, one of which was Macross (VF-4G Lightning III).
It looks like there were only four released last year, two of which were Macross (VF-1D and VF-4 Lightning III).
Here's hoping they've got some good things in store for the future.

Thanks for the update on this year's Super Dimension Convention. Bummed that it won't be happening, but obviously understandable. Here's to next year!

Yeah, I think that's the best option.
For what it's worth, I think the VE-1 is the only release that I've personally had an issue with.
I know there have been other issues with folks getting two right or left leg armors, some grumbling about matching orange paint/plastic (including from me), but for the most part I think the HMR line has been fairly solid in terms of quality control.
