The one's from tokyo central are the Japanese version of the manga right? I already have a US version on order but might get more if these turn out to be very popular.

Hey Archvile your right. I remember the game stating that Cima was with some zion space marines that gassed a colony and were then pretty much exiled. Thanks for the info guys. Gotta say I love the white wolf high mobility zaku paint job. Might have to make one of these for myself. Anybody know if you can patch the US version to allow for downloading. Too bad there isn't online play. Do they have that in the Japanese version?

Toys east is good. I've ordered a lot of stuff from them. Had a problem with a bit car not working though...not their fault but they sent a new one and had me send the broken one back after I got the new one. They were very nice and responded quickly to e-mails if there is a problem. Shipping was cheaper than HLJ too.

I've been playing MS gundam encounters in space like mad lately. Finally passed it all today. Gotta say this is by far the best spaced based gundam game ever. I love it. I miss the ground combat though. Was wondering if some of the story lines are just made up characters or do these characters actually appear in the gundam history somewhere besides this game. Plot lines like: Thoroughbred: the 16th Autonomous corps And Ace pilots like: Johnny Ridden "the crimson lightning" Shin Massunaga "the white wolf" of soloman Yuu Kajima "Blue death and the exam system" Cima Garahau--i remember her from 0083 but here you play her as a pilot before she became a comander If you haven't had a chance to play this game your truly missing out if your a mecha or gundam fan. The hardest part of the game is the mission mode. Here you have 8 missions to play with a pilot you create. Each mission gives you more points to apply skills and attributes to your pilot. Then you can use these pilots in the verses mode. It took me about a week of playing each night before I had a pilot better than amaro, char and gato.

I'm 10 eps into macross 7 and I like it a lot. Its better than macross II. I think the animation could be better but I like the music and the story so far is tolerable. Personally. I'm enjoying it more than I'm enjoying the first 3 eps of Macross Zero. The little purple haired girl is the only interesting character in zero.

Can someone put up a review of these? Please. Are these fixed pose or do they have articulation points? I'm thinking about it primarily for the monster and Qua Ru. How are they? Do these suffer from the typical gasphon disease of loose or weak joints and deformed parts that are all bent out of shape? Really worried about the joints on these since the K&M's posable one's sucked so bad. How are they compared to the K&M. Please answer....somebody!

Great Guys! keep'em comming. It'd be great if we can fill this list up. Hey Mods...any chance of pinning this thread so we don't loose it in the mix. Thanks everybody. Keep'em comming and I'll keep updating the list.

So AD police is part of the bubblegum crisis series? I never new. Is it any good. I've seen the DVD at blockbuster but never rented. How are the currently released AD police DVD's different from the OVA's. Which is better?

Macross plus on action channel tonight.

Hey Anubis I love your designs what about about having a different top rather than double up on the pyramid. like this or something. The white doesn't look right though

Hey alvaro, polycaps are like the joints for the gundam kits. You could probably just use some left over one's for a HG or MG kit as they always give you extras.

I always wondered what the heck those were! If they are the Ghost is it the same design as in macross plus? How are they different? Looks cool.

Try this site for better info on a variety of players. http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers Just do a search using your DVD players model #...then look what it can do, what it can play as far as copies, and look for hacks. Most DVD players have a region hack. SOme are easier than others.

Did anybody else notice that Macross 2 was on Action on saturday. I know as far as macross goes it sucks but maybe well get to see DYRL or something else like Macross seven soon.

So have any of you caught "memories" on PPV. 3 short movies 2 great and one poor one. I loved the first movie "Magnetic Rose". Interesting plot and wonderful art. I thought "Stink Bomb" was the best of the three. Funny plot, great art and music. I laughed almost the whole way through it. Last and by far the worst was "Cannon Fodder"...Cruddy art, poor music, and most of all a crappy plot that was more like swiss cheeze. Left too many questions. All 3 were subtitled...I don't think there was a dub available. I'm not sure this is worth buying the DVD but its definitely worth renting on PPV or blockbuster. I actually want to see the first 2 again.

I think you gotta go with the flying hand on one side and the collage of characters and fighters on the other (I they could only add the ghost or sharon to that collage it would be perfect) Not sure about the spine (how about the 3 sharon's) and the top doesn't look right to me in grey.

Flip top works with most disks. More important is the swap disk that somes with it. The only games I haven't been able to play on my flip top are some of the EA sports games, Evangelion import,. Works All the gundam games Macross works Initial D JAP Ghost in the shell SAC ZOne of enders Lord of the rings 2 Towers lethal skys DBZ Boudakai 2

Hey so where are we on these parted valks. When can we get the parts.

I like the last design. Wouldn't the top look better as crisp shiny black with a red eye for the AI box?

i see

Sorry but we already have a 40 some page discussion about this game and the values of using mod chips, flip tops, and slide cards. Most of us finished all the levels with "s" grades around x-mas

I'm not talking about making metal recasts...just metal molds so the molds will last longer. I use to work in a plastec injection molding manufacturer (think every 3m or motorola part made). So I know how the injection molding works. Just trying to find a way to make better molds that last longer for our resin recasts. Or better yet we could make recasts out of plastec.

Hey all you recasters. Have any of you been watching that creature vs creature show on discovery channel. Each week they make a mold of the skulls of whatever animals will be fighting. The cool thing is is that they are making them out of Aluminum. What I was wondering is if this process could be reversed so we can make aluminum molds easily so that molds will last longer? WHat they'be been doing is making the skulls out of styrofoam and putting them in a mold box with sand. THen they pour hot liquid aluminum into the sand via some well placed funnels So do you think this could work if we used our regular molds instead of styrofoam. I would think that the molten aluminum would melt the mold material. OR do you think we would loose all the detail? Mods...sorry for posting this since you have reservations on recasting but I thought this might be a good solution for those projects deemed acceptable for this site. Thanks

Hey everybody! I got the first two GBP out of robs new molds (via a trade) and they are absolutely fabulous. I'm speachless. I think I found 1 tiny airbubble on the sets I got. And that included 2 GBP's minus the chest piece on one since I have an original and an extra set of leg armors. On the sets I got there is litterly no clean-up. I could wash these and paint them immediately. Mine weren't died and came in robs usual tan color. What's amazing is that rob does this all by hand and without a vacume box. Man your all going to love these. They are not to be missed.

To get the S grade do the following. Its not much fun but it will get you an S for sure. Forget about everything, just fly as fast as you can and land on the macross below. Once your on it you'll be standing there then you can shoot a couple of pods. Getting there fast with no damage is the key.
