stampede_valk Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Hi Im new in macross world forums but Ive been a macross fan since I have knowledge. Actually Im working in a destroid monster in a 1/60 scale and Im looking for some backup and lineart to make it look more great than any destroid monster ever. Im also looking for some line art for the hikaru plane that uses in the first chapter (whats the name of that jet???) cos Im working on it (also in 1/60) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobywan Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Go buy a copy of Macross: Perfect Memory. You can find it by using Google. That is all the reference you will need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 are you aware that Yamato is working on a 1/60 monster? Also, I think you're talking about Hikaru's fanracer. Tanmen made on at 1/72 and I don't know if it'll be that much bigger in 1/60... how about a 1/48? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neova Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Wasn't there pictures of Yamato's 1/60 monster here? I can't seem to find it. Why doesn't someone work on the 4 destroids? 1/48 scale would be phat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleddogg83 Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Blackaces reported on his last visit with Yamato that the 1/60 monster will be coming out in 2005. I thought this was common knowledge. No official date release but 2005 is when it will happen. Will it be able to support it own weight? So we are getting a 1/100 and a 1/60? The 1/60 will transform right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1/60 will transform right? nope...the 1/60 is the original monster from the original TV series and the movie so it won't transform...the 1/100 is transformable though...but that's a different Monster all together since that one was only seen in the VF-X2 game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1/60 will not transform cause is the original monster and its not variable, the VFX-2 1/100 koening monster yes. The monster is huge but it is not a variable mech so will be easier balance the weight. I suppose it will cost between 200-250 bucks.

If it doesnt transform then I assume most of the weight will be in the legs and the cannons will be ABS or some other sort of plastic.

Maybe after the Monster apparition in Macross zero and the 1/100 KM and vf-0 they will reduce the Monster scale to 1/100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neova Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 (edited) Nothing wrong with a 1/48 Monster cept for space and shipping rates. G-system has their 1/100 Deepstriker Gundam kit at 38 CM high and 86 CM long. Huge but one beautiful piece of artwork... When you see the details in such a big kit, it really makes the smaller toys look like bootlegs. If we have to drop 250-300 for a plastic toy. It better have full posability (as much as a heavy tank can pose), full interior, openable cockpit, flaps, doors, full shells system, monster crew of 3, beer and pizza holder, and etc... and be on par or better than a PG Grade Gundam. Size is one thing, but Yamato is crazy if its just a big limited pose hollow shell. stampede_valk, I would love to see you pull it off but I'm holding back my reservations until I see pictures.

1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted October 3, 2004 Share Posted October 3, 2004 Maybe it would be better they ship this thing in pieces. I would have fun assembling the toy. Make the toy easy to disassemble and this way it will be easy to store and we can apreciate the insides of the toy ala fast pack kit for 1/48 valks.

Onore Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 Can you imagine transforming a 1/60 monster?? I mean you would have to get up, walk around the model, change a part, and then walk back! That's insane!! Of course if Yamato can pull this one off and keep the price under the national deficit, I'd buy one. I just don't know where the heck I'd put it!

Renato Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I cant see myself realistically buying a 1/60, because I have limited space in my flat. Id have to move just for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StealthLurker Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) Been out of the macross loop for the most part, besides the usual 1/48 releases.. So sorry to bump an old thread... did a quick search about this figure and this is where the last info seemed to point. Did Yamato completely cancel this destroid monster project? .

Macross73 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) I dont have concrete answer for you. As far as i can see, there hasnt been any news about a 1/60 being made by Yamato. In the models section a theres a scratch built monster that been offered as kit. i dont recall at the moment who made it but it is very impressive and quite large. its a fantastic representation of the Monster .The status of the kit appears to be up in the air. I dont know if orders are still being taken for it. Or what actually happened. I want one (that size) too but have other things going on at the moment. mayeb it will gained momentum again in the future.
