Wah! Great pix, vt102!

Why Yamato why?!!! I am trying to save money to buy another 1/48 and now the Elint and Super O are released.

Now I dont know what to spend my money on.

"We are Yamato.

ALL YOUR MONEY ARE BELONGS TO US!"

Huh?! Where'd that voice come from?

Rapid Culture, I think, still has 1/48 Max for the best price!

This is just the begining........

OT:

Have you watched Samurai Deeper Kyo? I've watched only the first 3 episodes and still going nowhere. Too many characters introduced in just three eps.

Hey areaseven. How about sharing a list of your recomended anime titles to us?

Well, I'm pretty much psyched for the game. Hopefully AM2 will churn out something good.....hmmmm.....

Hope fully they will. They're the same guys that brought to us aerowings / aero elite that is more flight simulator than an arcade shooter.

I REALLY REALLY wish there's a COCKPIT VIEW.

1) Nose gear be perpendicular to the ground when extended (Fighter mode with out fast packs) or, better still, extended more to avoid the tendencies of retracting when rolling.

2) Reinforce the hinge clip that clips on the top part of the back pack.

LOL. Destroyed, Bulky Lee, etc. What's next? I also noticed there's five more coming soon squares. What do you guys think is going to belong in those area's? Destroid Monster? GBP-1S Armored Valkyrie? The ASS-1?

The VF-1A Low Visibility Valkyrie!

Oh, and Mylene's songs are my favorite!  Those and the song where Basara thinks he's Bruce Dickinson.      At least he didn't say  "Scream for me!"  to the crowd!

Ugh one of the greatest metal singers of all time, Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) being compared with one of the worst anime characters/singers of all time, Basara.

kill me

Iron Maiden Rulz!

Basara is cool also. He's an artist that's why he's eccentric... A little too..

"FIXT"

AHHhhhh. Not Funny. <_< <_< <_<

Are we going to see a slew of broken backpack hinges when the FASTPacks come out?  IIRC, the FaSTpacks require us to use the clip... 

I guess we just have to wait and see. Only about a week or so now to go.

Yamato have told me it is safe to use the clip, but I don't believe them

Don't forget, the 1/48 FAST packs are going to come with that optional extrawhite plastic part, which attaches behind the back hatch. Yamato say that this is a dual function part. Firstly, it adds a bit of extra detail to that area and secondly, it is supposed to add a bit of reinforcement. However, that part can only be used in Battroid mode and has to be removed for transformation to Fighter or Gerwalk.

Whooooooooooooooooooooooo Boy.

Yamato Better Do something about reinforcing this "clip" on the upcoming valks Hikaru VF-1J and most especially the Hikaru VF-1S before releasing them.

Graham, Please inform Yamato about reinforcing the hinge clip in the future valks IF we get reports of it breaking when the Fast Packs are installed.

...Still, we'll just have to wait and see. But it's ALWAYS better to tell Yamato VERY EARLY so that they can do something about it ASAP................... Even if the next 1/48 valk is planned for an October Release.

My vote goes to the GBP Armor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got mine today!  Very cool little figures!  I even was lucky enough to get the chase Minmay doll!! Thanks again to Tam for letting me know about these. 

What's the switch on the back of the Minmay doll for?

Graham

Decoration only! Just a molded on piece of plastic. I suppose it is to make it more of a clone of the one we see in Macross. Although I really wish the switch would have allowed you to play a tune from DYRL? or the TV series...That would have been really cool!

..I will take some pics of it later and post them on this thread! These little things are terrifc though! I love the chase figure but I wish it had replaced something in the set other than my regular hair Hikaru! Oh well, I should be happy that I was able to get a set! Can't wait for series two!

..........................................................................................

And to Toonz and MD...D'oh! ..That is NOT what I meant! Heh!

1/1 Mylene?

I failed to read the description of this thread:  "Rookie In training"

WHAT?.....    Rookie in training and you're already playing the game in maniac?    You really are a maniac, huh?    (jokes again) 

I played the game in both Easy and Normal. In any game, I consider that training. I always try to finish every game i play on the hardest mode, that what makes the game last longer and more challenging for me. I love a challenge!!!

So I guess you're not a rookie after all.

OK there's an updated epsxe! I'll try and see if you can see the ending of VFX2 time.

Boy, you guys are maniacs for playing it in maniac.  (joke) 

That's funny. I never played any game in hard mode.  Always in normal or easy.  I guess I'm not a real gamer.

BTW.  Do you guys think that the two endings are worth it?  I only finished the game using an emulator.  Because my PS1 did't work anymore. 

Emulator? Is it a good one? Can you direct me to where i can download it please?

Epsxe is the emulator I use.

WARNING: Don't expect to see any of the endings if you use this emulator in playing VFX2. You'll only see a black screen.

Here the link anyway: (click me)

You guys haven't tried Snes9x? This is the emulator I use. Easy to use and I think is the best out there. Try it.

i'm still waiting for mine to arrive

Did you order online? Or reserved at a local store? I've been looking for those CM's figures all over Singapore. And it seems that none of the store owners down there ever heard of such figures........ All they show me were the Sharpeners. <_<

Already have a copy of the game for the PS2.

i think that this was how it was ment to be

That's the picture I was talking about!

Heh, I'm the opposite. I love Mylene. I'd like to move my hands down from her shoulders to her  ******* and squeeze B)

On the other hand if we are talking about Basara, that is one character I could happily throttle. Throughout the whole series I was so wishing that Gamlin would plug him in a *ahem* friendly fire accident.

Anyway jokes aside, as others have said Macross 7 is not everbody's cup of tea. Personally I  love it, despite my dislike of Basara. In fact I probably prefer it to original SDF Macross.

If you can get past the Valks with human faces, the over-use of stock footage in the combat scenes then you are in for one heck of a ride.

Graham

Pervert. <_<

About Macross7, it has its own flavor. It's a like carnival ride. Macross Plus tend to be on the serious side. SDF Series is a Soap Opera.

But Macross7, like other Macross Series, still has the Macross formula:

Fighters that tranform into robots

Music / Singers

Love triangle

And yeah, I love Macross7.

Kinda OT but I think people's views on VF-0 compared with the VF-1 (which being advanced and "advanced looking") may actually change if we see a VF-1 in future Macross Zero episodes.

I don't know If I broke them but this is what happend with my 1/48s:

wheels of the nose gear detached

one the gear lights detached from the rear gear doors

a plate on the wing detatched

............ .................. Come to think of it, I didn't break any. They just mysteriously detached.

I failed to read the description of this thread: "Rookie In training"

WHAT?..... Rookie in training and you're already playing the game in maniac? You really are a maniac, huh? <_< (jokes again)

The preview site still has no updates. August is going and we only have the flash movie. <_
