Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
Lolicon replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Hehe thanks! Iron Man is a more interesting character, but in Civil War I'm #TeamCap all the way! So I checked out the model kit. The sensors and fold quartz(?) are molded in the proper "beam saber" transparent pink, but the head visor is not. Thanks, Bandai! -

I love new stuff day! Let's see how fast I can slap together a VF-31. -
What markings?
-
I'd totally buy that VF-11.

Max needs a booster seat to see over the instrument panel.

Thanks! Didn't have time to open it till today and discovered that it even has my favorite canopy. -

Never thought I'd get one of these, but glad I finally got one! Box got a little bit dinged up (thanks USPS!) but still brand new and... sealed? I have never bought a Yamato valkyrie that was sealed with tape. -
One is a painted model kit that you simply have to stick together out of the box, the other is a toy of questionable build quality. I don't think you're gonna find someone who will paint and detail a model kit for you for $30, so I see it as a decent value. I picked up just the fighter mode kits along with the LED lighting units for the engines. Should make for a nice display piece.

That or anything interesting happening would be nice. So far the only interesting event was in episode 10, and we're almost halfway through the series. Watching Delta is like watching the Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie show. It'll be piloted in the second half of the series by Messer's identical twin brother.

Holy f***ing crap, did Bandai actually fix one of their screwups? I'm speechless.

Very nice! I also recently picked up another 1J with some new parts. -
I don't think following forum posts here is the most reliable method of determining what to release, since by that metric Max and Miria are the most popular schemes in the history of mecha and Arcadia is stupid not to reissue them and Bandai clearly should have released them first. Nor do I care what this vague "everyone" wants or says they want. I know what I want, and it's not yet another repaint of an inferior VF-1 toy, which I already have plenty of. I can't fault Bandai for releasing what sells, however. But then by that same token, we can't bitch about Arcadia's releases and reissues either, since they're just going by what they think will sell. And if we can't bitch about toy releases, then we've taken away most of the reasons why this place exists.
-
The next three releases after the Monster are more damn VF-1s. You can do better than that, Bandai.
-
The colors are wrong, but I'll take it for $100. Beats paying $500+ for the Yamato versions. Don't like the Max & Miria colors enough to shell out that kind of cash or bother fixing it myself.
-
I do that, but this is my first time admitting it, so it's not me.
-
They look like they come with illuminated bases too.
-
I can't possibly imagine why laserdisc never really caught on here.
-
I'd buy another 25 if it had a paint scheme I liked. Because I am a consumer whore.
-
How many people here actually owned a laserdisc player? I never did. My childhood was the VHS era.
-
Wasn't Kamjin wearing a wife beater in a later episode? Just paint his skin purple and hair blue and it'll be close enough.

Yeah, you guys are right. I guess I could use another SSP set... -
I bought 2 of them on sale and it cost as much as a single Yamato VF-4G back when Yamato released it.

Picked up another 1S with Skittles canopy. Maybe I can cancel my Arcadia order now... -
He specifically stated 1/60.

YF-21 is matte.
