Doctor Chiba disagrees with you. 

But seriously, can we get into some rock n roll again? I'll even take new wave. Like the reincarnation of the Cure circa Disintegration so that they're so sad that whatever enemy of protoculture has like a depressing reaction and kills themselves off.

Am I the only one that thinks Frontier was the best Macross outside of the original TV and DYRL version?

No you are not. I even like it better than SDFM. Only DYRL? tops it for me.

I think if Delta had come before Frontier, it would have been better received, as it was better, at least in terms of animation, than M7, but not nearly as good as Frontier with its better, well, everything. Frontier spoiled us; it's going to take another show like it or Plus to be satisfying to the majority of fans, I think, myself included.

That and. Even Delta's songs, were...eh. yeah there were a few that were good, but not anywhere near as good as MF, let alone M7. I think I enjoyed MII's music more. Delta,  that one song, every time I hear it. I think of Toni Braxton.  And when I do hear Toni Braxton,  I think of Delta.

 

.....Also that Earth, Wind & Fire song. Same thing.

 

Unchain my Delta

Can’t disagree with either of you on that!!!

Eh I love all of Macross but yeah Delta and Macross II are my least fav. Macross II sits at the bottom because it basically is / should’ve been a Robotech installment haha as it basically branches off the rest of the franchise where everything else is at least somewhat connected in the same universe.

I'm sure that this version of Nora will be non-sticker free @Sanity is Optional to much of your dismay. If the PF does get released for another 10k yen, then there is that non-stickered option.   

Think it would be PF? Ivanov wasn’t

Sorry my friend, I posted it shortly after responding here and it sold within a few days.

Quick shout to @rocketblast for a smooth transaction and purchase. Great communication.

One can only hope the Valks most want will be.

For some perspectives, I believe those Wing Gundam GFFMCs and Metal Builds were rather quite difficult to get from P-Bandai USA/Bluefin. 

 

 

Totally. I mean, this doesn't solve all of our collector problems by any stretch of the imagination. Just look at the Evangelion Metal Builds, Gundam, etc. Sold on P-Bandai US/Bluefin and still sold out quickly. And really not any cheaper. And still jacked up prices on eBay in the aftermarket.

Now it looks like I should buy GBP-1 armor.  I just don't know if GBP-1 armor fits on the 2000 reissue valkyries or not.

It in fact does! I can at least confirm that the original armor fits the 2001/2002 reissues. I haven't tried it on my 2008 Origin yet. Here's a shot of it in my collection.

This announcement likely won’t make Valks less expensive (if merch even is included) - just easier to obtain. If anything, it will make them more expensive outside of Japan in theory. Though more access would drop some of the price gouging of the aftermarket.

When he opens back up, I am gonna put in a huge order lol

Pretty much!! I think @ChaoticYeti will need to do a soft re-opening or he'll get blasted with orders all at once!!

The Fighter mode of that looks great.  I'd consider getting one just based on that alone.  

Yeah, I know some may cringe but I seriously never need to transform it! LOL I just love it like this.

its scheduled to be release on 04-23-2021

Perfect. I know it had to be the 17th or 23rd. I didn't see the date on Tamashii.

So, when are we guessing that the 2nd batch of Supers will be shipped in April? 17?

Are you still looking for one of these?

Loving mine

Received notification early this morning that my 1/60 SF-3A Lancer II has shipped! Based on the tracking info, it looks to be heading to the correct post office for Tenso, so there's a halfway decent chance that this might actually work out. Fingers crossed....

Oh I’ve done it twice to Tenso with Arcadia. Most recent was my PF VF-4. It’ll work just fine. For my shipping notice from the same sale too. Looking forward to it.

Actual conversation today when I showed my wife the pictures from there:

Me: Look what's coming for me in June!
Wife: Don't you have that already.
Me: NO, those two are the Yamato 1/60. This is a 1/48 DX Chogokin like my Roy and Max.
Wife: And don't you have a smaller one too?
Me: That's the Hi Metal R! And that one doesn't come with a fan racer.

That's how you know when the wifey starts question you on the stuff that you get as it looks the same to her. 

Cue up the Simpson's vid: "It's the same Malibu Stacy, but a new hat"...

Now imagine if we had taken every dime we spent on collectibles in the past 10 years and bought Bitcoin instead, we could build an ACTUAL Valkyrie with that much cash 

 

I had friends that did. Too bad they don't collect valkyries

Speaking of throwing money at something, when will the next announcement be damnit!

I managed to get a 1/60 SF-3A Lancer II. Completed my order in the first minute of the sale. Sold out a few minutes later.

Nice! I believe @tekering landed one too.

Much appreciated. I missed that piece of information. It looks like Arcadia posted it on the opening day of the sale, right when everyone (including me) was focused on repeatedly hitting the F5 key in the hopes of snagging an item....

What did you land btw? I only picked up Reactive Armor because I didn't stay up for this one and all the good stuff was obviously gone by the time I woke up.

You have to either use a proxy, or get a Japanese forwarding address.

Ive had something from them shipped through a Tenso address before without issue.

Just for my VF-4 PF that way. I won’t be up at 3AM fire this though.
