    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.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    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.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    MKT replied to GGemini's topic in Toys

    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.

    DX Chogokin VF-17S

    MKT replied to GGemini's topic in Toys

    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.

    Strike A Pose! revisted...

    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.

    Fantastic! Always enjoy your outdoor forced perspective pics.

    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.

    @pengbuzz Condolences to you and sorry for your loss. Stay strong.

    LOL I see Devastator is already put together.

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

    Gotta say it is pretty adventurous of Toyrise to have already opened PO for 3 variants even before first one has released. I wonder if there will be a Tread for each one of them, and how would their wings match up with respective Legiosses.

    Now this fighter gives me the vibes of.. a Space Battleship Yamato jet fighter? Or an Ultraman jet. Perhaps I can expect it to land on Mazinger Z's head & form the brain lol.

    I was curious about Triple Jim because it seems much time has passed without any news. It could be the project has been shelved for time being since there's been no updates. Action Toys is affliated to Pose+, via Awaken Studios. I always enjoy the videos this studio puts out, as the designer explains the design philosophy behind the stuff they put out, and so for better or worse we can appreciate why certain aspects of the toys are what they are. I wish Bandai would do more of these sorts of communication behind their Macross products, but alas the rare ones they do are usually some light fluff segments or interviews.

    Got a cheapo 1/36 VW Beetle from a thrift sale to complement the 3rd party Transcraft BB. Initially wanted to get another Transcraft for alt mode - love the sculpt, but mold is plaque with QC issues so just leaving it in bot-mode only.

    It's quite the surprise that Bandai made changes to the plastic to make it more opaque, but this can only be a good thing.

    Some of these I wanted so badly many moons ago! Especially the combiners..

    Somehow, Arcee Springer has a nice ring to it lol.
