  1. love my Rand Cyclone...
  2. not from HLJ, but great deal nonetheless (for those who still don't have this) http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10115367
  3. i have to agree that i'm liking how this is going compared to the MacF movies (i prefer the MacF TV series)... i just hope it doesn't have an ending that's similar to the 00 movie. glad i got these when i did -
  4. tested it... works fine with any BD rip of ep. 4.
  5. found these subs for ep. 04 (and 1-3 also)... haven't tested them yet though... - http://www.nyaa.eu/?page=torrentinfo&tid=260556
  6. just saw the magi oar forest ep. better than the last episode... theme and the twist was kinda kid's stuff... i liked the itano circus wannabe scene.
  7. haha... you changed it... i was actually thinking your new sign would be better than the previous one (and coz i wear 'em ) are these super parts priced the same as the old v.1 super parts?
  8. here's the old "shoulder hinge replacement" thread - http://www.macrosswo...ndpost&p=929255 sorry to hear about your VT-1, but you're a couple of months late coming here to look for replacements. I don't think contacting Graham at this point will do any good since he already gave away all the replacement hinges he had... if you know somebody living in Japan, you can ask them to try contacting Yamato - http://eng.yamato-to...pany/index.html ...i think as long as you're a Japan resident, they'll send you the replacement part/s you need. This is the Yamato Customer Service number: 03-3526-6080
  9. i finally watched ep. 7... i thought it was going to be boring just like the last few episode. finally some action, and lots of it. d'ling ep. 8, can't wait to watch it...
  10. \ask ff95gj... he's got a spreadsheet of all the Macross toys he's bought
  11. i agree that the DX v.1s were more of a "WTF Bandai!", esp. after they announced the v.2s just some months after releasing the 25G Tornado and re-issuing the 25F... WTF indeed. i've been really careful buying stuff these past few years, but my "meh" purchase a few years back were these: i tried hard to like 'em in lieu of the 1/60 versions, but being small and not transformable, i quickly lost interest and eventually sold them. how could you be content with those if you could have these instead :
  12. w/ SSPs, definitely. didn't like the color of the 1S low-viz they made for the v.2 1/60 (its like they mixed the 1/48 stealth and low-viz colors)... i prefer the color scheme of the VFX... a 1/60 low-viz with the same color scheme as the 1/48 would be hard to say no to, but make it a 1S or 1J.
  13. they're kidding, right? 20 JPY discount?
  14. addendum to letter for bandai... can you please stop making every other toy release a g'damn web exclusive...
  15. nice pics... although, pics 2 and 6 does highlight a couple of the problems i mentioned, lol. droopy front fuselage remedied by the flightpose stand... still, one of my favorite canon color schemes in all of Macross. btw, here's chronocidal's post regarding fixing the droopy nose issue - http://www.macrosswo...ndpost&p=860058
  16. +1... with SSPs please.
  17. make this and an Ex-Gear Ozma, since he got a lot of screen time in the last movie.
  18. that and they just don't seem to care... more like sins...
  19. fighter mode looks great in those pics.
  20. that looks bad@ss indeed! after watching the 2nd movie, i'm now more inclined towards Ozma's valk schemes compared to Alto's.
  21. i can't forget that one guy who mutilated his v.1 VF-25F's legs just so it can have a decent GERWALK mode stance.
  22. here's a small .mp4 for phone/psp - http://www.nyaa.eu/?page=torrentinfo&tid=256843
  23. check the joints for the arms (the ones that connect to the shoulder and to the arm cannons)... a couple on mine has cracks where the hollow pin is inserted. it doesn't really affect the toy atm, but seeing as how people here b!tched about the cracked shoulder hinges on the Yamato v.2, i thought it worth mentioning. at least Yamato remedied the problem and provided replacements. i might just go with you on this one and wait 'til Bandai's hold on the Frontier license expires... i have to avoid this thread and other Bandai DX valk threads though, lol.
  24. it's more the overall fit of the different parts of the 0A Shin that's bad... esp when you compare it to how solid the v.2 VF-1s feel. As for the shoulders, i've been really careful with mine when i transform it, so no issues so far. I also loosened the screws for the shoulders for good measure. aside from the shoulders here are some of the other problems with the VF-0 series: 1. droopy front fuselage in fighter mode - chronocidal documented how to disassemble the nose/cockpit part and then bend the die-cast slide bar upward slightly in the "What's wrong with my Yamato, Bandai etc" thread. 2. the connection between the upper thigh tabs to the chest lerx part is very loose in fighter mode. you can use super glue or nail polish to tighten the tab connection. 3. the lower leg tabs that connect to the backpack in fighter mode also doesn't lock in very well. - this i've given up on. EDIT - 4. almost forgot... it's a pain in the @ss to keep the missiles on the wing hard points. on a side note, i recently just discovered that the neck of the VF-0 toys are actually extendable. good luck with your 0A Shin. i love mine, but it's really just a display piece and not really a toy you can play around with.
