Um no.

I disagree about that "rocking" but i wont get into it.

I'm with ya on that one... southern cross/masters mecha sucks for the most part. By far and away my least favourate show.

I would pre-order the 19, but i'd like to know if there are any 'fixes' on it before i spend that kind of money.. i mean you can get a 19 with fold booster for that kind of cash... its a shame that by the time someone reviews it, they will probably be all gone or even more expensive (massive mark up on evilbay or wherever due to there 'limited' nature). bugger.

Thanks guys.. i never noticed the warping.

but here are some SV-51's and other bits.

I cant seem to find the Sharon Apple ones, but i'll keep looking. In the meantime, i can put the rest up if anyone wants them.

Thanks Ratchet.. like i said earlier.. it wont be until the end of the month anyhoo... i'll be in touch with elintseeker first, and then i'll see what i have left to spend... (just got a promotion and a fat pay rise )

thanx for the pics.

I'm sure most of you will already have these, but if not... enjoy..

from Hidetaka Tenjin's Valkyries Art Book

There are 60+ images.... if anyone wants more.. shout.

NOT fan works, i know but... sooo pretty.

I bet they'll be using F-22s for the VF-1. Afterall, THEY'll want this to look real and modern. Not to mention the fact that the F-14 has been retired from active service in september 2006.

may we take a moment to remember the F-14...... (sheds tears)

Hi folks.. could do with some advice on this one... does anyone have this set, or know if its any good?

i like the idea of dual languages ( i know, i know.... watch it with subs... but i can get others into it easier with a dub too)

EDIT- i have already ordered the 25th ltdEd box of DYRL... but the series box is too expensice right now... maybe get it later.

You really, really, really, need to see this...

DYRL single-edition: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCBA-3171

M-TV: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCBA-3169

I got mine preordered here.....

WHOH!!! that thing really is HUUUUUUUGE... and i like it.

Okay, after reading the last 31 odd pages, (and pre-ordering the 25th ltd ed. box heheh) are we any closer to seeing a video trailer of Macross f? (what was it again? i read soo much) oh yes.. Frontier? its been a couple of weeks since the show and nothing yet? This is a bit weird no?

would anyone like to put up or link some pics of the new HD dvd's? i would but i'm stuck using a work computer....

Interesting idea... i like it.

Graham... any chance of some more spoilers/clues?

Sorry amigos tried to copy and paste the page in... trust me its up there though... nice lookin black YF-19 25th anniversary... but a 1/48?

Hmm thats the page..

http://cgi.ebay.com/Yamato-Macross-1-48-25...1QQcmdZViewItem

try this.

NOTICE that its listed as 1/48.... dodgy eh?

OK i cant get the link to work either... but on ebay.com, currently page 3 about half way down!!

I agree... all the scale shots are great!! (big thanks to those that have taken the time to do them)... I was going to wait for the second release or the 'nora' but... i..... dont... think... i can... need.. nice.. big.. black.. thing.... argh!

and further to my last post.. i now realise its not just the shelf space thats the kicker, its the damned huge boxes! where we supposed to store all the empty boxes?!? need to build an extension on my house. DOH!

Lookee at what i just spotted on EvilBay...

Hmmmmmm....... anyone want a slighty used liver or knidney?

I think you lose so much from dubs

i can't imagine patlabor without the voices of noa, asuma, and the rest

i've watched one dubbed eopisode and the entire mood and characters completely

changed, it wasn't the same.

And that happens to every anime i've heard dub for.

i usually watch the anime a second time anyway when i want to

just enjoy the visuals

watch these and i think it will give you an idea

Funny, I was going to add that i thought the Patlabor movie dubs (1 + 2) were really good!, I couldnt imagine those movies with different voices. Maybe its a 'rose tinted' memory thing.. you hear it acouple of times that way, and thats the way it will always be.

maybe someone should start a "good dub" list thread for people like myself and/or any newcomers to the genre.

Damnit!!!! I'm gonna need to put even more shelves up... (worries as he's running out of wall space)

-Steve Buscemi as "Exedore".-

Excellent choice

WOW! thanks sketchly. I would dearly love to learn an asian language, Chinese would probably be of most use as its the most widely used but for personal use it would be Japanese... I wonder how many people have learned a new language just for anime or movie viewing? I think i'll give it a try.

thanks for the input.

hmmm that sounds interesting.. will have to check the end of month finances..but keep me in mind.... i'll get back to you asap.

thanx by the way.

While out on a quick break from the office, a gem of an idea popped into my head...... what are peoples thoughts on a Macross live action series helmed by DAVID EICK and RONALD D. MOORE? (for those who dont know, they did the current re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica).

personally i think this, although it would likely never happen, would be the best and most awsome show of all time! think of the visual style... Huge spaceships a plenty, proper transforming mecha and nice speedy well cut battle scenes!

any thoughts? (I think this is the best idea i have thought of in years!)

(should this be in a new topic or elsewhere?)

Well folks... thanx for all the posts and debates... I guess... i'll have to learn Japanese, Chinese and Korean then... its not something i would have ever considered. Last i heard, Japanese is one of the hardest languages to learn, but i see the merit of truly enjoying something you love in its original format. And i think its safe to say...

we all love anime.

peace.

Yup, Yup and Yup the the last couple of post... we can all spectulate, battyulate and get ourselves into a near hypermental state, but seriously how long before we come to realise (2years down the line) that this movie will probably stay in development hell, i mean look at Indy 4 for gods sake! The Indy franchise had a MASSIVE following and that movie got stuck in hell for how many years? The reality of news like this is that its just a tidbit of news... nothing more... so what if it apparently has a producer/screenwiter/star/spideyblokeperson/bigstudio its still just q wee bit of news that will probably not come to any fruition for 3 or 4 years minimum. If i'm wrong, i'll eat my feathers!!!

Looking for a Bandai 1/55 Reissue Max & Miriya (preferably with boxes and bits but will consider loose)

Also a VF-1S strike (boxed with parts)

and does anyone know the full list of Bandai 1/55 reissue valks?

i already have VF-1A(cannon fodder), VF-1A (hikaru), VF-1J (hikaru), VF-1S (roy)

I live in thte U.K. but will gladly pay for overseas postages (gods know i have paid some waaaay OTT postage charges from EvilBay)
