Password changed. Wish I could say I'm surprised this happened, but not much surprises me anymore. 😕

Looks like they’ve announced the next series…1000 years in the future with the Yamato as the antagonist? 
 

Change the future.
 The enemy is ... Space Battleship Yamato.

 "Space Battleship Yamato" remake series latest work "Yamato forever REBEL3199"

 

Wow. Did not see that one coming. Can't wait to see how this turns out.

Looks like the Yamato had some engine trouble there! lol

Going by context, it would seem that the engineering crew member either didn't do something correctly, like failed to follow engine starting procedures, or perhaps they didn't perform the necessary maintenance beforehand?

Why can’t they do both?

Fair point.

If it's just a new head, I'm not sure how interested I might be.  if its actually a redesign and re-imagining of the shadow fighter or drone with an updated sculpt, that might be interesting.

 

I like the dark color scheme better than the Blue, Red, or Green. It's the only one I'm waiting on.

Finally got all three on the shelf, now if Sentinel will only release a TREAD. 

Oh no, not until they finally release my shadow fighter! 😛

Too large scale for my tastes, hard pass.

Oh wow! Frontier era fighters!! That will be awesome as they are some of my favorites!

Indeed! I'd also LOVE to see a VF-0S as well.

If they make diecast VF-25/27/29 I am absolutely down for it.

Any hint of an SOC Andromeda on the horizon?

I'd be surprised if they didn't come out with one.

The ink's barely dry on the deal... it was only signed back in March.  It's gonna take time for individual licensees and distributors to digest the big news, reach out to Big West for a better picture of the legal implications, and examine the market to see where the money is.  I'd expect Q4 2021 at the earliest.

I'd honestly be surprised if we got anything out of this before the end of the year, I'd love to be proven wrong though.

Same. I'll add Macross Plus to that too.

M+ is a very close second to Frontier, IMHO.

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

I can honestly say, Delta was the first Macross series to disappoint me. It could have been so good, no, it should have. It had the potential,  but......

Maybe this means Macross the First is the next animation project.

That would be awesome.

The lack of the SDFM and DYRL logos on the official Japanese Twitter page says a lot.....  BW may have decided to sacrifice these 2 to get the full, undisputed world-wide distribution and merch rights for all other shows and all future shows.....

 

Personally, I would let Thanos do the snap on all these shows before letting go of the original Macross......guess I'm old (school)....

You ain't alone, bro. Not by a long shot.

I was still looking for a 1/48 VF-1S for under $300 shipped directly to me. and finally amazon Japan let some ship directly to the U.S. for 28,450yen about $260 US if your still looking they have 4 left for that price. good luck

Nice, if I didn't already have mine, I'd be all over that.

Again, this will not change because of this agreement. You still need to get your ass into the queue.

 

As long as it means an end to late night "Preorder Madness" sessions, I'll be perfectly content.

When is the next Tamashi Nations web episode?

I wanna see if they still put up the placard!

I have mine sitting on my desk as I type this, but what I want to see just as much is if they ever make a 1/60 version, even with less gimmicks I'd still take one as long as it's the same sculpt.

If this means HG stops making it expensive for me to get my transforming robot planes then I’m all for this deal.  If it means they get to stick their logo on the box but I save $50-$100 hell  yes.  I would love to buy the 1/48 VF1D from a local store.  

My thoughts exactly. I just want an end to "Preorder Madness" for Valks.

Frontier was solid.

I wouldn’t lump it with Delta or 7.

What's the concensus on Hobby Korner? Are they OK to preorder with?

Black with gray or grayish-purple trim would be nice.

Black with Grey would be an insta-buy of at least two for me.

As long as it’s AFTER we get Houquet and the Bartley.

So, new engine intakes, claw hands, synchro canon. . . any other differences I’m forgetting?

Be nice if they go with black instead of dark purple too for the main color.

And would Sentinel go with a bright violet pilot just to spite us? 

Man, if they actually make it in BLACK, I swear upon the great Hory Froating Head himself that I will buy at least TWO. And I NEVER buy more than one of any particular release. Ever.
