  1. Man you guys are critical on the details! lol @Mommar Metal Siren?
  2. @Chronocidal agreed, that bandai stand for the draken is God awful. Would much rather it take up less room and be articulated like the alter one. @XigfridI thought that too. Left a hell of a mark lol
  3. @no3Ljm it sort of does. The wings can be folded either way. Right up for parked or reversed for high speed mode. The canopy/cockpit can be reclined right back too. The super sylph just has hard points and a foldable sensor array. I have yet to "attempt" transforming that draken
  4. I recieved my calibre wings jolly rogers f-14b 1/72 Scale Diecast Model today, and also put my alter mave yukikaze on display. As you can see the mave is loaded to bear and I love how they added an extra stand for the fuel air bomb. Gives it a really dynamic pose. I have the super sylph too, just need to get through the stupid cable ties alter use to secure the model in. They do not want you to get the model out in a hurry!
  5. I'd actually like to see the hero type c/f/j/s in a similar more military style color scheme. A commander type or something.
  6. It's not much but it's something to help with the wait.
  7. That's crazy! More a puzzle than valk then. I'll be sure to keep the patience on standby. I think once one is in battroid mode it will stay as that. It's kind of strangely annoying when a valk looks good in all modes. Means you have to buy two or three just so you can be happy with them on display. Otherwise it would get frustrating to choose which mode to put it in. Plus if it is difficult to transform then that's even worse.
  8. When my sv262 "finally arrives" (NY didn't process it and ship it for a whole week for starters!) i will see what the transformation difficulty is like. I have very little experience in transforming valks, only three to be precise. I will be able to say as a novice "transformer" just how tough it really is compared to the vf-31a i am eagerly awaiting.
  9. I've have only owned two valks till very recently. Yamato was "it" from my experience. I had the 1/72 1st release vf-11b which broke not long after i bought it. That put my off buying more till 2007 when they released the "almighty"SV-51 gamma. That thing was amazing. Sold it, regretted it, bought another. Being new to the forums and being around other liked minded folk (you good/crazy people) has definitely shown me there is so much available these days. Bandai, Arcadia and evolution toys.......ahem has so much to offer it's crazy. Personally i'm panicking and buying everything i missed out on over the years. I'll happily have quiet times! The new Arcadia SV-51 has my name on it and i'm crazy enough to buy the premium too. I live and hope for the day someone makes Feff's Gigamesh power armor in 1/60 with all the detail and cool features that mech has. It deserves to be made IMO. It would look boss next to the evo toys vf-2ss. If i ever bought one....
  10. That black peak makes it a million times better looking. Horn still looks so out of place though. Love the old strike parts and that wrist blade on it.
  11. The 31s is looking good, glad I went through with the pre order
  12. It's possible they will have individual releases seeing as the 31's did. But on the flip side, the Draken isn't as popular as the Siegfried. Maybe they would worry that the BA wouldn't sell well like the Kieth variant. Shame really it's a good looking valk. I'm sure they will look good regardless. I'll probably just stick with my two Keith types. I have the Arad 31s pre ordered too so that could go next to one of them. I kinda dig the 31a over everything else, so I'll probably pick a 3rd up and burn in macross hell for my greed later
  13. Is anyone going to buy a squadron's worth for the sake of screen accuracy and well... being a collector
  14. I just got my first official dx chogokin valk today. It's true. But why is the box so small? Surely it needs to be at least 3 times the size? When you're used to yamato sized boxes that take up half a room it's crazy to think there is a valk in there. Same with the Arcadia yf-19 I got,everything is cramed in. Oh how times have changed
  15. Yes would definitely like to see a better vf-2ss or metal siren released. Feff's custom gigamesh power armor though is by far the coolest non valk mecha design in all of the macross series. Hence the avatar i will admit Frontier and Delta are very watchable. The animation was excellent. Most of the music is very good. Especially the scores. They really enhance and drive some of the scenes forward. I basically got introduced in anime through the mid 90's. Although i have vague memories of the early macross and dyrl as a kid. Street Fighter ll the animated movie was the first anime movie i ever watched and after that the 12 part ova series of Guyver. Safe to say that set the standard for my anime watching career. It was regular trips to HMV to see what new anime movies on vhs were available. The manga entertainment trailers were out of this world. i'll include some links below. They led me to likes of patlabor, akira, ninja scroll, the cyberpunk collection etc. all amazing anime and definitely my favorite era. Street fighter ll the animated movie has one of the best soundtracks in any anime. And apologies if these are frowned upon in this thread. Nostalgia trip and they highly recommended if you haven't seen them.
  16. It's a good looking Valk. Well if you ever want to be rid of one give me a shout.
  17. The yf-21 i got too. Mac plus was one of the helping hands that got me into the series. That and Mac ll.
  18. Yeah must of been The first release Yamato yf-21 was similar money too. You'd be hard pressed to find one these days for less than that new. These are sealed new items.
  19. True, just curious on what it would look like. It's been awhile since I watched delta but I'll get around to watching it again it after I get through Mac 7 and Frontier. A super pack would be cool. They did one for the 25a so hopefully the 31a will get one too eventually.
