I am a little late joining this forum. Spending half day reading many comments, pictures, news, and opinions from page 1 to 14. I have somethings to say.
1. Everytime I hear the word "Macross 1/55 Re-Issue", my first impression is that "Where is the VF-1D"? I bet many people would never understand why Takatoku Bandai never release VF-1D since 1982? I bet most of us MUST buy VF-1D if it eventually comes to the market.
2. There is NO surprise for this re-issue VF-1J, VF-1S, and VF-1A with fast pack. I do not see and do not know what is the exact difference between the re-issue valkyries in 2008 and the re-issue valkyries in 2002? There are few Macross friends mentioned the fast pack comes with the VF-1A looks like the fast pack comes with the re-issue VF-1S Super in 2002.
3. Many of us hopes Bandai re-issue VE-1, VT-1, and GBP-1S armors. I do NOT understand why they will re-issue them in 2008 but not 2002? IN MY OPINION, the chance for Bandai to re-issue VE-1, VT-1, and GBP-1S armors is 0%.
4. Most of the serious Macross Robotech collectors are between 30 to 40 years old. We were kids when Macross on the TV in Japan 1982 or Robotech on the TV in US 1985. How many of us have money to buy Macross Robotech toys at that time? What I mean is for most of us, we only do Windows Shopping when we were kids. We saw the toy and the box through the window of the shop. In order for us to refresh our childhood memory, I think we need both the toy and the box. It is something the re-issue can not compare with the original.
