I thought the same thing about my Yamato YF-19 and -21, "this toy is a mess!"

but then you fiddle with it, and find all the little locking tabs, and things snap together nice and tight, and you completely rethink your opinion after a few days.

So the naked blue guy who can change his size, see neutrinos, and create a glass of water out of nothing is okay

and still be able to NOT wear pants and have no one around him say a single word about it.

Ahh, crappy plane transformers, what a history they have...

I nicely sculpted airplane on the top, a crapton of crap hanging off the bottom.

I have to agree with whoever mentioned the missiles, those are absolutely aweful clip-on weapons. Still, some are better than nothing. I don't see why they couldn't have something akin to the Yamato VF-1's and have just a small peg to clip into.

The Ghost looks like a sexy scuplt tho, I hope it gets sold in a set of 3.

Honestly, since they are offering the Alto armor as a web shop item, I think it will fit the existing VF-25 Alto, since there are no plans so far on a "v2" Alto that we have seen.

Prolly not US$

It says "goofy clip-on weapons that we are going to charge way to much money for"

Ozma sounds spot on in those clips, and the music and sound effects are great as well

crazy japanese voice actors and their super deep raspy voices are hard as hell to duplicate and sound decent, good work so far!

BTW, it just dawned on me that you have to re-make the entire audio track to the series, Bravo!

)for some reason I thought there was a voice track seperate from the score and sound effects, but that's all done in studio, not here)

If only stuff could be encoded that way lol

Still not interested in the ver2 1/60's, the nose cone is all wrong to me, looks too much like jetfire and not like macross.

I have 2 of the first run 1/60 VF-1's, and I love the long sweeping nose on it.

There is a huge difference between Yamato and Bandai, in terms of both size and how many transforming products they have released.

Bandai is a ginormous (spell check didn't flag ginormous ) company with many different branches, kinda like Sony. Yamato is a much smaller company that produces niche products.

Bandai isn't worried about losing a few customers because of poor planning on the holes on the early VF-25's, cause they have a gabillion customers to begin with. Not only that, but they are the only game in town when it comes to Macross Frontier toys, so even though people will gripe about it, they will still buy them, just like how people bought the old Yamato VF-11b when they knew it had defective hips, or the VF-0s with the defective shoulders.

Anyone who bought a first run Yamato Valk will know the anger of having a defective product, and then have a "ver. 2" released a few months later. Remember the 1/72 YF-19, VF-11b, 1/60 VF-0s? I think people have come to expect that from Yamato, so they don't blast them anymore on it. Personally, when I drop $100+ on a toy, I expect it to be defect-free, no legs falling off in the box, no flaccid shoulder syndrome, etc.

Yamato has pissed me off more than any other toy company, but I still buy products from them, because no one else offers what they do.

I'm not a fanboy for either company, I'll buy a valkyrie toy from whoever makes one, but is it too much to ask for my money's worth?

Already pre-ordered!

Get 4 SDF-1s, name them Macross, Megalord, Unnamed, and Global.

Also, get 2 Quarters. One is Quarter, the other... I forget what I named him...

I really hope this can

OH MY GOD, IT HOLSTERED THE FLIGHT DECK!

The name was not the Quarter, it was the Macross, and it was a 400meter class wasn't it?

The namesake Macross seems like the Starfleet tradition of having an Enterprise in the fleet at all times, it was just good luck.

The eyes! The eyes! They never stop staring at you! It's like something out of The Grudge lol

Great work, very impressive!

I don't care if its necromancy, I would love to have some tigershark teeth on my monster lol

I don't trust myself to freehand them

Awesome, just got the go-ahead from the wife for the Armored VF-25

I'm sure that you have a much greater chance of winning the lottery than that happening to you. Probably easier to get struck by lightning.

Taksraven

So if I have already been struck by lightning, where does that leave me? (yes, was struck by lightning when I was 18)

Countach?!?!? (still my all-time fave car appearance-wise, no car will ever look as cool)

omg same here, the early 80's models were simply the most badass designs on any car ever!

Another series? didn't his mom and sister come back from space in one of the later ones already?

Yeah, Metal Gear Solid, the first one for the PS1, and, imo, the best one.

The captain seemed to force the raspy voice too deep, making an unnatural sounding voice over all. Maybe he just needs to relax some more

every project "needs more funding", its just not going to happen, meteors are very low on the priority list for nearly every government. Ever watch Armageddon? Great popcorn flick, but one line stuck with me: "No offense, but its a big ass sky."

The Armored VF-25 is being released right before my birthday, that might cut some slack from the spouse when I tell her what I want for a present

The captain and Ozma in that last clip could have been lifted straight from Metal Gear Solid - especially the captain. Maybe have them not force the deep raspy voice so much, and use a more natural tone. Great timing and overall quality tho

Now the hard part is to wait for the ones I want to be released.

VF-25 full armor, VF-171, VF-4, VF-2SS, and maybe the Elint.

The version with the ARMD arms is from DYRL, but what about this version?

Mushroom Kingdom apparently had their own Spiral Wars:
