31 and still a "BIG" kid ...

To fullfill a childhood dream (mom can't say no this time around), ...

And because I gotz the money to buy each and every version that is produced .

I'll try to scan the pics tonight , but don't count on it, as tearing myself away from the new Macross PS2 game will be very difficult

Graham

There's a new Macross PS2 game?!?

I must be a relative of Rip Van Winkle cuz I definitely missed that one

Thanks for the newz Graham, Got any more from Yamato?

Answers (somewhat) to yer ?s:

1. & 2. - ???

3. - tips - buy the aftermarket sticker sheets from either anasazi37 or takatoys. I've bought from both and their products are light years ahead of the OE stickers.

4. the yamato booklet does have a good sticker placement guide to go by.

You've just missed out on the recent anasazi37 sticker/decal offering (deadline was the 15th) but if you can wait till the next time around when he'll offer them again. Or just order some from takatoys - his offerings are just as good.

edit:

go here TakaToys 1/48 Sticker Review for an excellent review by Hurin

MPC : Master Piece of Crap. There is no quality. I regret paying $50 bucks for one on eBay.

ALL 3!!! I'm all "Gimme, gimme, gimme..."

Man, Go away for a week and a lot happens

One step closer to getting the 1/60 complete, Yamato just needs to start producing enemy mecha

I've got the $$$ saved up, but not specifically ear-marked for the Monster. I keep tellin' myself I'd buy one, but at such a high price point I'll be hard pressed to try to justify spending that much cash on one single item. It's gotta be super-detailed and high quality, not like the poor quality of the more recent Yamato 1/60 line.

One of each (to include variants), thank you very much

Chan,

Are there any other SW stuff from Code 3? Tie fighter, X-wing, etc?

Mine was a VF-11B, hips didnt fail till two weeks after I got it. That initial bad experience with Yamato quality (or lack of) did little to stop my lust for valks

As long as they finally give the VF-11 some damn tailfins...

Vostok 7

Exactamundo... and a better sculpt for the VF-19

What's the deal with Rogue Squadron only being released for the Game Cube? I really want a copy for my PS2

edit: my fat fingers hit the wrong key...

...er, I model ladies lingerie B)

UH, in that case, I hope your a lady JK BTW

anywho, I mostly model auto's and racing cars (yes, big nascar fan, and yes, I am a hillbilly) I've been getting into macross and gundam quite a bit lately, I allways customize a kit, The only kit I didnt customize was a 1/100 Arii strike valk

Actually, me girlfriend does for me. Just had to make a smart@ss comment

I used to build US Navy warships, mostly WWI & WWII era. The capital ships were much more impressive than todays warships. Not enough gun turrets bristling on the deck.

Now that I've got a big 'ol box of Bandai Macross models, I'm slowly getting back into the former hobby.

Looks really sweet Master Cheng

If only if they left the Yamato factory that way...

I think one persons definition of an "army" would be different from the next guy. Several factors come into play: wallet size, storage/display space, etc. But in terms of hard numbers, my opinion is an army being several squadrons, with the famous Skull Squadron being just one of them.

I'll be content just having the full complement of the Skull

Since I've bought several of sithlord's stands I may just get one of them.

BTW, nice pic rdenham

1/60 - To complete the line: VF-1s, enemy mecha and Destroids. And it'll be much better on my wallet and storage/display space.

I'm slowly running outta storage space myself. The closet that was practically empty at the beginning of the year is nearly full . I cant imagine trying to stuff a 1/60 Monster box in there

My only other obsession besides Macross is getting on as many jump manifests that I can. AIRBORNE!!!

If it don't transform... Heck, NO!!!

Don't think... Get 'em.

I would use this analogy: Comparing Takatoys and Yamato stickers is like comparing the Yamato 1/48 valk and Toynami's MPC. There's no question which is far superior. You've already spent $120+ to buy the toy, spend a little more to make it PURDY!!!

Wowzers Takatoys' sticker sheet for the low vis looks excellent - Finally different squadron emblems.

And his 1/48 armor sets are lookin' good as well. I wonder when they'll be ready to purchase?

I'm having bad flashbacks from college

I hope there isnt a statistics test at the end of this thread!

Cool info mcpaz
