I'm sorry I imposed my opinion that I feel that "Crisp makes sense." It is only polite that I should keep my opinions to myself, and you should be allowed to post yours. it's just as easy for me to say, "I disagree with you because YOUR points are silly and idiotic... you can think naive thoughts, but do it alone... You are out of line posting your opinions here." but in order to not be hypocritical, I would have to refrain from posting altogether, I couldn't even agree with anyone because (as you may have noticed) here I have posted that I agree with Crisp and Haterist... and you, who I have not adressed, tell me that I am somehow wrong for agreeing with anyone, because they disagree with you. can you not see how THAT is imposing your opinion on others? I won't sink to your level, you can post what you want. as I said earlier, we'll see if you get the $200 price tag most vocal MWers seem willing to pay. (just please don't pretend that I am somehow oppressing you, whereas you are innocent of the same offense)

Haterist, I've been trying to ignore you (for the most part) since our last go-round. But seriously, you're nearly impossible to ignore because you plaster posts all over these boards. That wouldn't be a problem if your behavior weren't so erratic and by turns so damn bizarre. (paraphrase the rest of the post) Haterist is stoopid! here's some personal attacks against him... etc....etc.... off topic. i don't know which forum you can legitimately start a thread about how bad/crazy another member here is as a person, but I'm pretty sure it isn't the toy forum. P.S. I realize that I am also off topic, but I tried to keep it short (and sweet, to boot!)

that makes perfect sense... I think the argument against it is "I want to spend as much money as possible, because it's MY money and I don't want it to be mine anymore!"

I need BP8... i know there's a re-cast, but I am afraid I will never get to see it... so in the interest of good sense... I am requesting one here.... PLEEEEEEASE HELP!!! (I typed that in my most pitiful voice)

did I mention that I want one? well I DO!!!!

I agree with Haterist here... everybody keep saying that you'll pay $200 for it and see how much it costs you. Remember how Hayao Kakizaki was saying that a Q-rau cost HIM $80 because that was what peeps in his area were willing to pay? Also, at the local anime dist. I got to talking with the owner, he says "Yamato's toys don't cost nearly as much overseas, but they put the high price on the box. It's a meaningless price to everyone except Americans, who pay the exact dollar equivalent" So to all y'all who say "we aren't the target audience, Yamato doesn't set its prices for us" well, your half right, There's the real price (that has NOTHING to do with us) and there is the price that is printed on the box (which has always been the same amount as people said they were willing to pay here, on this board) maybe some of you remember a while back, when there were two links to the same Yammie on HLJ, there were two pages that were the same except for two differences: 1. one page was in Japanese. 2. the other page had a higher price listed on it, before shipping. so yeah, we aren't their target audience, and they don't pay much attention to us. but we do buy a lot of valks, and apparently we buy them at the highest price of anyone in the world.

well, paint me green and call me a n00b! soooooo... it IS an insult. Got it.

I noticed that beneath my avatar there is the title: Heatshield Scrubber... what does this mean? Is it some sort of insult? Can I change it? if so, how? Also, there is a little bow/dot/thing below it.... what is this? a check mark? a warning? i doubt i could be something good, not for ME! anyways, I hope somebody who knows answers my query, not sure if this is the right place to post, but in the FAQ section there is only RULES RULES RULES!!! I searched but aparently I am the only one who doesn't know... or the search function here sucks.

That's the real crux of the matter, they are not worth the asking price. If they were say 20 to 30 dollar toys, maaaaaybe even it wouldn't be so bad. I have to agree... it's not blind hatred of the MPC that earns it the negative comments... it's the toy vs. it's price.... I mean, remove price from the equation, and the MPC is better than a Banpresto, BUT, take into account that the MPC originally cost $80 (which I paid) and now they cost more on ebay (for some reason) and the Banprestos go for $14... and suddenly, the Banpresto's problems are much less evident, much more forgivable... and the Banpresto becomes a better toy. When someone asks about the MPC, and I give "horrible" biased advise against it. It's really just that I feel like I got ripped off when I bought my MPC. I've got no one to blame but myself, and I just want to try to help some innocent MWer to avoid my mistake... it's not hate, it's concern for the wellbeing of others. but do we REALLY need a war about the strengths and weaknesses of the 1:60 vs. the MPC? I mean, If someone asks if they should get a MPC and someone else answers by saying that they go for $120 to $145 online and they're not worth THAT much. Do we NEED to defend the MPC by attacking the 1:60? can't we just say that IF your planning on spending $145 on a Macross toy, it should be a 1:48.

somebody's going to get mad at you!

sorry man, but it seems that metal is the devil's material according to macrossworlders.

I mean, seriously! geez!

that's En Vogue! not TLC!

the guys who make decisions regarding whether a vf-2s will be released need to read Dante's inferno... Hell has already frozen over! Now get to work making my VF-2, DAMMIT!!

My money's no good, the ink-jety quality of the print job always gives it away!

Why is the SV-51 have all the UN markings when it is anti-UN plane? sneaky spy stuff!

a banpresto maybe?! anyone? anyone?

I'm sure a Yammie 1:48 VF-1 non-transformable battaliod mode toy would cost as much as the existing 1:48. If the Q-rau has taught me anything, it's taught me that Yamato charges by size... 12" tall... $120! regardless of production costs. As to the scale of "wedding Miriya" being the ruin of my previous post... there is NO doubt that the other two figures are 1:60, they are the reason I want to buy the set. Wedding Miriya, be she 1:60 or 1:15 is just an extra bauble. Also, I don't see how the conflict between male and female Zentradi in DYRL enters into the scale equation. Max fought Miriya... It was love at first sight... Next time we see 'em, Max is friggin' huge! I've never heard mention of a lost scene where Max shrank back down and brought Miriya with him... So, I'm guessin' that wedding Miriya there is wearing a 1:60 scale wedding dress.

my Yammie 1:48 hikaru a is broken... but it's my fault...

holy crap!

man...

as is most everyone.. I am looking for BP-08
