  1. An Orguss shows up in Macross (DYRL I think) for about 1.5 seconds. Basiclally it's standing on the SDF-1 firing at Zentradi likke you're standard destroid. It's shield is on the wrong arm, which prompted a joke that it must have been reveresed when it crossed over to our dimension.

    Lots of Macross folks worked on Orguss so it was probably an inside joke, like the pepsi and budweiser cans hidden in the missle swarms.

    Can't forget Captain Harlock's ship Either!

  2. Who ever bought that got a sweet price. I'm curious to know how this guy got one in the states so fast.

    If your interested he has more.I have went through this seller before but it was some time ago.Anywho here is the link.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3159393943

    Yeah! I was just surfing Ebay and saw those. Along, with the other seller who has pics posted in the other thread. I really don't think he is in the US though. Shipping rates are too high.

    I've gotta get one of these. Where are the pics out of the box? I've been searching and can't find any. I couldn't even find them on Yamato's site.

    The pic of the fighter without the FP's look sexy! For some reason I only like the armor on Hikarus 1j in battroid.

  3. Keep in mind that this VF-1J will more than likely be realeased with the uprades. So that means collapsable gunpod, no more stupid pieces to loose from the arms, and better poseability. The first release was flop city compared to the valks after it!

    I will be getting the bundle myself and definately extras if they are released individually.

  4. Seeing that this is an armored valkyrie, Does that mean that we are going to see some action outside of Earth's atmosphere?

    Considering the VF-0's engines.......nope.

    And on that same note wouldn't the armored VF be to heavy for the engines, ecspecially within the atmosphere? Maybe it will be just limited to ground missions.

  5. It depends on which valk it is. I always associate my toys with the most memorable scenes from the anime.

    Example's:

    VF-1D - I love it in Gerwalk.

    Hikaru's 1J - Definately Battroid. I picture it always floating in front of the Macross.

    Roy's 1S - Battroid with hands up in the air. The scene where they all are caputered in DYRL.

    Ostrich and Elint - Favorite is fighter mode.

    I love all three modes, I can't choose a favorite.

  6. I play with my valks. My girlfriend gets so pissed of at me. I remember as a kid setting up battles with my GIjoe figures. I haven't changed a bit and I'm trying to make up for lost time. The ones that get the most play is the 1/48 and the 1/60 J's.

  7. I go and visit it for reference somes times. My main link in favorites goes straight to the forums though.

    I know Shawn and Graham are busy but I do think the page needs a new overhaul. It may generate more traffic that way.

  8. Hey thats a good break down. I'm going to try future on my next custum. I haven't had any luck with the clear coats in the spray can. I just tried Model Master and it still yellowed a bit.

    The Tamiya primer in the can is da bomb! It goes on so smooth and if you plan on using a clear coat there really is no need for another type of paint.

  9. Yeah! I would just assume the there is a white U.N. Spacey on the legs. Even though I can't recall any examples of it. like you said, you can only take so much from the animation.

    It stinks that a Max 1A has never been mass produced. Theres not really much to go by.

  10. aghh! To late! I've already painted them.

    Not saying that it's correct or anything but if you look at the Ben Dixon Master piece the tips of the fins are brown but the wing tips are white. I'm assuming Max's scheme is the same but blue. However, I think I can live with it. It really boils down to a matter of personel preference. I've looked all through perfect memory and could not find any pics. I may try and watch some of the series tonight.

    I'd like to see how Toynami Painted the macross version Max superposeable. Does anybody have pics?
