  2. Thanks for the reply Rob. I'd go about $25.00 + shipping as maximum - the other models in the series cost me between $10-$15.00 each, but I have a feeling that this one is a little rarer. Let me know if you come up with anything. Thanks!
  3. Looking for one of these. ARII 1/100 HEWAT VF-1A Max Special #AR-561/M7 Model Kit PM me or reply here if you have one available. Thanks
  4. Good stuff, everyone. All of my attempts to start cell collecting have been met with Ebay outbid notices. At least I have one in my sig baronv, I noticed that the first cell in your first post is one that's [benignly] bugged me forever - Hikaru's seat gets raised from behind the tailfins/backpack of the 1D. Neat score Please post more, folks.
  5. Damn, she lost her 1J? Might actually have to try out 7 after all. Which episode? Maybe not though. Dunno if it's worth it...
  6. Throw me on that bandwagon too. I'd like to find about 10pc if possible. TIA!
  7. IMHO, they are really not that bad, unless you get a real lemon, ie; parts falling off right out of the box - fortunately, that has not been my experience with any of them. You need to exercise some care in their handling, and like Jenius said in the MPC thread, treat it more as a detailed model (albeit a very heavy one) than a toy. Check the MPC thread for tips on proper transformation and handling. I have one of each issue, including a low serial number Stig/Blue model (#2894), and they are all pretty uniform in terms of QC. Actually, all of mine are low numbers from their respective runs, so I don't know that the lower numbers really indicate poorer QC in general. Looks like Ebay is your only recourse for a blue one these days - guess this might prove some of the naysayers wrong?
  8. Thanks for your thoughts BoBe. Mac, this is the poster:
  9. I have an extra copy of Perfect Memory (with poster) on the way that I just won as part of a lot on Ebay. I already have another original with poster, so I'm willing to let the "new" one go. I'm not certain which release the new one is (OUT 8 or OUT 10) as I haven't got it in my hands yet. I guess price will be dependent on which release it is. I ended up buying it because I wanted the DYRL film comics that it was sold with, but I really don't need two copies. Here is a link to the auction I won: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...me=STRK:MEWN:IT Send me a PM if interested. * Edit - looking at the MW listing for Perfect Memory, it does appear that this is the OUT-10 release, as the seller did affirm that it has the poster, and the words "Macross Perfect Memory" DO appear on the back cover, as opposed to the OUT-8 version which did not have the script on the back... What do you think, BoBe?

  11. I'm one of the 1/60 die hards (I have all of them), but if I were you, I'd follow the previous advice and go ahead and pick up the 1/48s you want first, simply because they are not likely to get any cheaper. Then you can spend some time and less cash to pick up your remaining 1/60s at your leisure. As far as paint chipping and other 1/60 issues go, here is my solution: Buy doubles and even triples of the ones you want - they are cheap enough . Then you can have some for display, some to keep MISB, and some 'beaters' to actually screw around with. Ironically, my 1/60 beaters (chipped paint, broken/reglued BP8s, etc) are actually my favorites, probably because I don't really have to worry about any of them. Have fun!
  12. Anubis, Send me a pm with your address - I've got a really nice vinyl 4" UN Spacy emblem you can have that Chowser kindly gave me with a purchase a while back. Hate to see it in my parts drawer going to waste...
  13. LMFAO Great accuracy is required. Tell me about your mother OK, a real Macross myth for legitimazation: Myth Zentrans feasted on man-sized turkey legs, and smoked man-size cigarettes in the later episodes. The waste disposal was a nightmare. FactMicronization. Re-Zentraedification. Discuss.
  14. Though to be fair, remember that Max caught him enroute to the privy Might count for something.
  15. You know, it's weird. I pretty much grew up believing that I had seen that non-existant footage somewhere, and I was gobsmacked when I saw the series after a very long time and there was nothing. 318625[/snapback] You know, that's funny. I felt exactly the same when I reviewed the series too - I could have sworn that the seat was shown. At least I remembered it that way. I think that the creators' inference was so, and that they expressed it well. <sigmund> We had prior indication of Roy being in trouble was when he was actually struck during battle. So when the technician scene plays out, some of us may have had a predisposition to "see the blood". Also, the powers of hindsight and knowledge of the collapse/death scene later are probably contributors. </sigmund>
  16. Too true. The compression just killed it, and the shots are still 250K Anyway, if you have FB2012 you can see for yourself.
  17. Anyone know what the text reads in this one? Can't quite make it out. fb2.bmp
  18. "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..." Noticed this caption while watching FB 2012. It appears directly under the red Macross text. fb1.bmp
  19. Yamato 1/60 VF1S for the low low price of $140. Pirated pics too. http://cgi.ebay.com/JP-YAMATO-MACROSS-ROBO...1QQcmdZViewItem Only an hour left, get your bids in
  20. Nice pics guys, thanks. Just got mine today but haven't had time to screw with it yet . #1457 looks like a good one so far. Will post some pics later.

    Yep, .36 was what, latter part of '01? Think I started in the .33 betas somewhere, however, haven't updated since .78 or so. Still happily running EL and my out of date .exe's anyway

  23. Speaking of irony, I've heard that much of the titanium used in the construction of the SR-71s had to be purchased direct from the USSR, as the US' supply was so limited.
  24. Haven't seen the flick yet, but based on everything I've read, I'll wait the coupla weeks for the DVD rental The crabs you mention were probably an in-reference to the beautiful scintillating jeweled crabs found on Vogsphere, which the Vogons liked to smash because, well, they were Vogons. You had to be there.
