Does anyone take an educated guess at Arcadia lot sizes? SV-51 Nora seems substantial, but I'm hearing for other types it mat be under a few 1000 globally? Not sure yield per mold based on tool quality. I mean, Yamato and Arcadia struck me as larger than a garage shop, studio or low tier licenser, but I'm starting to wonder if we'll get the chance at a VF5000G if a few K get snatched up quickly in the "primary market" of Japan?

Ever get a final paint job?

Prudent points. Nobody seems to be innovative lately. Just go tried and true.

As this sputtered out and we're into the Holiday season... any news on release date possibilities?

Hard to believe we're coming up on the Holidays again. I still believe this is one of the most meaningful projects out there because it fills a gap that the OEMs left decades ago. So how's it coming along?

Good news they acknowledged a problem on their end. I'm back in. They aren't sure why it happened, and apologized for the slow CS.

And yes, in this case, "size matters" because I wanted to pair the Minmay satellite with 1/200 3D printed destroids off Cults3D ( love and respect to @themechafactory )

Hard to believe Kawamori would start playing Mickey Mouse games. (There's an AI meme waiting to happen). Macross-II was the only part of the franchise in which he ever gave up some degree of control, righr?

On topic?

A bit of tape or glue ( let dry fully before insertion) to thicken it up...

Thank you again Christopher for referring me to Tom about the paint suggestions for those of us who bought unfinished kits. What a gentleman, and very informative. I was really surprised that his base of choice was Krylon, and the Tamaiya was reserved for just some of the brighter details like yellow.

One twist, the next Macross series is being developed now by a more :Gundam-ish" team and studio affiliation. Presuming it leads to something more profound, does that create a quantum leap pull-through for everything else in the product portfolio? btw, am I the only person who orders through Tokyo Otaku Mode? They've been great to work with but feels like nobody else has.

So, if we all sit out a few years we'll be able to pick all these up for pennies on the dollar?
