  1. Well, those are indeed CGI images of the SV-51, but they are just black and white copies of Nora's Valkyrie, you can tell by the flame designs on the images. They are also a bit grainy, I was hoping for something in color, and also less grainy in High Resolution. Thank You for pointing those out to me! Twich
  2. Hello, I would really like to find some good quality CGI pictures of the SV-51Alpha(Mass Production type). I would very much like these to be as large as possible and I cannot seem to find any of this particular valkyrie. Any help or direction to where I can find it would be great. Twich Edit-To clarify, I have found many images of the SV-51R flown by Nora and DD. I have the Yamato toy of the SV-51alpha, and I want to get a good collection of imagery of the mass production SV-51 for a project that I am doing. There are particularly no pictures of this model in GERWALK mode. Any pictures or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
  3. Thanks for the screw-tightening suggestion! Will give it a whirl Twich
  4. Hello, I recently got a Yamato 1/60 SV-51a Mass Production model toy. I just transformed it for the first time from fighter to battroid mode, and noticed that the legs and arms and the stabilizers are really loose and floppy. Is there anyway, short of disassembly to correct the problem? Thanks! Twich
  5. Hello, I was looking for a good stand to go with my Bandai Chogokin 1/60 VF-25F Non Fast pack version. Does Bandai sell this separately? Or is there another source that is perhaps a little more reasonably priced? Any suggestions? I have seen in peoples sigs, Flex Stands, but are these able to take a 1/60 scal Valkyrie toy? I am really confused. Thanks! Twich
  6. Hello, I do not know if this is the most appropriate place for this discussion, but if it is in the wrong place, then MODS, please move it. I was wondering if we could discuss possible suggestions for upgrading previous mecha to modern (Macross Frontier) level engines and power. My vote would be for upgrading the SV-51 to Macross Frontier levels. What would be your suggestions to make this already great mecha space worthy and capable of competing with the likes of the VF-171, VF-25 and possibly the VF-27? 1. Upgrade the engines-give it the same engines as the VF-25, like the FF-3001 2. Strengthen the airframe to current G-Force/stress levels. 3.? What are your suggestions? Please discuss! Twich
  7. My wife ordered me a Yamato 1/60 SV-51a from HK Collectibles for our anniversary/Valentines Day present. She ordered it on Tuesday 2/9/10 and payed for speedpost. As of checking the status, it says that it was shipped from the Hong Kong PO, but no details on when it is set to arrive. The website indicates that Speedpost is 3-4 Business Days delivery. Twich
  8. Didnt realize I posted my question in the wrong spot, but thank you for moving it, and thank you for answering the question. I am always curious about that sort of thing, and it is nice to see proof that there is something in the line art, and not just anime magic behind things. Thanks again for the pic and discussion. Twich
  9. Hello, Has it ever been discussed what the secondary thrusters help the VF-25 achieve forward motion in GERWALK mode? I know most all the other valkyries have some secondary thruster unit for motion in Gerwalk, but I dont know if the VF-25 having this. Does it rely on the thrusters of the Super/Armored Fast Packs solely? I know that it has massive thrust in each of its engines, but is that enough? Discuss- Twich
  10. Thanks! Was distracted by all the eye- candy and didn't see it. Twich
  11. Ok, quick question. Can someone post release date for the movie please? Thank you. Twich
  12. Hello, I am very interesting in getting a 1/60 VF-25S or VF-25F, now the question I have is whether the basic models without Fast/Armored Packs come with stands, or is that only for the ones that come with Armored/Fast Packs? Please let me know. Thank You Twich
  13. Hello, I have a request for information on any shops selling Macross Bandai toys in California. I am currently in Buena Park, CA and tomorrow I am leave for home back to Spokane, Washington. I am driving, today I went to Anime Jungle located in LA, and after searching for it for 45 minutes, I finally found it, but it is closed on Tuesdays, and only Tuesdays...I am going to be going to Simi Valley, CA tomorrow and then on up to Vallejo, CA. I would really like to find a place that sells Macross toys, specifically the 1/60 DX Bandai Macross Frontier Valkyries and the VF100 Macross Frontier Valkyries. I dont want to go too much out of the way, but since my google searches have come up blank, and I am leaving tomorrow morning for Simi Valley, then Vallejo at 6am, I dont have much time to stay to go back to Anime Jungle. Is there anything shops that are near Vallejo that sell Bandai Macross Frontier Valks? Any assistance would be wonderful! Thank You! Twich
  14. Hello, I see myself only being able to get a VF100 VF-25, I would prefer the VF-25S, armored would be better, but where is the cheapest place for an american to order on of these things? I have skimmed the 21 pages of the thread and I saw mentioned that the price was reduced? But I still see them for sale for 40-50 USD. Is this the reduced price? Any help or direction would be appreciated. Twich
  15. Has anyone heard anymore information on the Warhammer 40k Space Marine game that I saw a short demo of a couple of weeks ago? Is this game coming to the PS3? I would really like to see this game, I just hope that they would not destroy the full functionality of a Space Marine to make this into a gimmicky Close Combat game as the demo seems to suggest. Any Thoughts? Twich
  16. Hello All, Okay, I am having a problem upgrading my phone from Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard to Windows Mobile 6.1 I have a HTC S621 smartphone and I have Unicel as my carrier. I have gone to the HTC, Unicel and other cellphone providers to see if there is an update for this phone because I want the latest version of the OS. I have only found upgrade ROM's for this phone available from other users, so I guess you could call them "cracked" versions of the upgrades. I dont know anything about upgrading phones or flashing the ROM for an update or anything of the sort. Can someone please help me out with an easy, step by step guide of where to get this upgrade for my phone and then how to apply this ROM to my phone without frakking up the phone and making it useless. Thank you to anyone who can lend a hand, I really want this and I am getting a little frustrated by the lack of resources that I am finding. Twich
  17. I seem to recall that the VF-o had a similar door to access the engines. Maybe it is there for realism? Seems to be much too big for a flap or airbrake. But who knows. Thank You David for posting the picture. Twich
  18. David, which schematics are you referring to and for what Valk? I guess I missed the schematics, could you post a link please? Thank You Twich
  19. I download stuff from lunar, which is xvid I believe, and I use PS3 Video 9 to convert them to .avi and make them HD in size so they are full screen on my PS3, it increases the size of the file to around 600mb, but it looks nice and plays real smooth on my PS3 even reading them off of DVD Data Disks. Twich
  20. Of Course, I would prefer Perfect Transformation. But if minimal parts are required to be swapped, and it looks fantastic in all modes, and they are producing Valks that have not been made before, then I am all for it. Twich
  21. Pretty much every PS2 game that I try has the little issue, my wife is sitting here with me and she just said that when a little voltage issue with the TV stopped, the trouble with the PS3 stopped, so maybe it was the tv after all. Twich
  22. I for one would seriously like to see a better flash player and a better browser for the PS3. I think that if they improved the functionality of the browser and flash/shockwave player and combine that with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, I could see my PS3 being an attractive alternative if you have mutlitple people and few PC's. I know people say...Just use a PC, but sometimes I dont want to, or my wife wants to use the PC and I just want to look at macrossworld or ign.com or something...that way we both get what we want and I get to use my PS3 to maximum potential! Just my $.02 Twich PS-Sony could partner with google to make a version of their Chrome broswer compatible with the PS3!
  23. I sure hope not. I don't have a lot of hours on my PS3...the biggest for me is playing MGS4 and Resistance. My wife has several hours with Folklore and then Jak II, Ratchet and Clank and a few downloaded PS1 games. I would be very upset if it were screwed up! Well, let us see, maybe I will just have to switch the PS2 games to the PS2 Slim. With a new baby due any minute now, I cant afford to have to replace a PS3. Twich
