MKT replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Liking these Godzilla figures. You might want a 4th copy cos Devastator looks like wanting to smash this one to pieces.- 1184 replies

Anyway, this release is as real-life jet a scheme that Bandai is making of a Macross VF. Isn't that a good thing? Now, if only they could also make the darn landing gears white.
-
This apparently posted by Kawamori today on X (unfortunately I don’t have the link). Looks like an F-18 with a VF-25 transformation scheme.
-
A nice fantasy repaint, and I quite like the scheme especially the light grey. I only wish they had gone with the 2-seater YF-25 variant - I feel that mold needs more appreciation.
-
Also apparently quite easy to take apart. https://x.com/simanto50100/status/2038068367375114596 Other online chatter are saying the legs are such that the triangles on the thighs act as buttons to unlock whole leg from the hip.

Apparently, there isn't any scale mentioned on the box but the toy designer did mention during the early days of reveal that it was 1/60. From the Fighter comparison pics, it would be either the Sentinel's being smaller than its stated scale or Toyrise's being larger. Unless, the scale of one or the other or even both are being quoted for Armo-Soldier instead. Still no comparison pic of both in that mode yet that I can see for now. Edit: Found a comparison pic in Soldier.

I am an occasional Miku fan having a few of her figures over the years. But this kinda creeps me a bit. AI singer now in a killer bot-body.

It’s a nice color, as with Olson’s. Which just reminds me, Bandai seems to be done with just a single release.- 1184 replies

Knowing myself I will probably pick this up very much later down the road, purely for novelty or completist reasons. If Bandai wants to continue the Macross 7 line they should focus on making the rest of HMR Soundforce they showed so prominently some years ago. I’m ok if they skip more DX Mac 7 for HMR versions.

These days I'm not feeling so much of buying lacklustre releases just so in the hope for the manufacturer to go on making the ones we want. Not especially when manufacturer can be really tone-deaf to fan sentiments. At same time, I dread to return to what I think would be the dark days of Macross collecting of.. pre early-2000s? Feels like the new Macross anime can't come soon enough - at least there'll be some new valks to get excited with, and not bastardised versions of old ones & various vaporwares. As I'm typing this I'm mourning how stuff so many stuff from Delta hasn't got released - chiefly a SV-303.
-
LOL this makes perfect sense! I was a bit ambivalent about the TV Valks in earlier days, because the sea of white makes it look very plain. But eventually I come to appreciate it more because it accentuates the sleek VF-1 Fighter silhouette especially the fuselage areas - no stripes to break the lines.

I think it was a Yammie 1/60 YF-19 Double Nuts? I wonder where that name actually came from lol.

DX YF-21's design's contentious yes.. but it does look much better when put together with the DX 19.

I'm ok with fabric figures as long as they are executed nicely in looks. One downside of fabric is that it can be difficult to ascertain range of motion, since the joints are covered up. Sometimes the range doesn't do as much as you are used to with other figures, and something might break when trying to pose them. This unless the manufacturer inserts some instructions or illustration on how far the range of motion goes. I don't have any other fabric figures other than KC's, so not sure if other manufacturers do this.- 1184 replies

When I look up Freiren, the images somehow reminds me of a very old Sega game I never played - Lunar: The Silver Star Story. Obviously they both have no relation, and I have no inkling of what both stories are about. It's just purely on basis of artwork the character designs of Lunar grabs me, & Freiren is somehow giving me the same vibe.- 1184 replies

I remember seeing an update somewhere that the A-Action range has been cancelled, which honestly isn't that surprising considering the intended prices.
