Hey guys,

I think Yamato should award some of us with Yamato Loyalty Card or something similar as a sign of appreciation. Something like for every 4 1/48 scale valks you buy, you get a low-vis Valk free !!! :rolleyes:

But seriously, I think Yamato should appreciate Shawn and Graham more since MW is one platform where we Macross fans can give feedbacks and suggestions to their products and indirectly Yamato's coffers :lol: Just look at the volume we are buying !!!

I will make a DRYL VF-1A Kakizaki, DRYL VF-1S Max, TV VF-1A Max, a VF-1J low Vis, TV VF-1A Kakizaki, and one special VF-1J custom. The thing I have other projects around the house that needs to be done.  I would like to get my little workshop setup. I am looking into paint and such. We will se if I have modelling skills.  VF-1S Max is ready... just need some paint on the head.  VF-1A Kakizaki will need some green paint.  Also I willmake the one the VF-1S Roy into a TV roy and the other VF-1S roy for a TV Hikaru VF-1S FP. 

And dont get me started on the FPs. I have like 5 DRYL FPs and 4x VF-1J Hikaru FPs I got from Neova.  I will buy more later to see if Yamato will make a CF or not.  Still it is a nice collection.

No kidding. I mean Yamato can not just ignore us. We have a significant dent into their profits.

Damn you guys! :lol:

You're seriusly making me put hands at work!!

If I have time, I'll do a complete search in the next days. Yep, as someone stated before, someone has to make the dirty work... :(

Excel will do it for me ^_^

PS: it's true, trueblueeyes hasn't respond to my marriage proposal :( . Maybe I wasn't romantic enough (damn, we spanish use to be so, don't we?), or maybe I wasn't serious enough, or maybe she is already married with a intelligent guy, smarter and faster than we are. ;)

I've got too much time on my hands - but am I the only one that noticed that the 1/48 is the only scale in which 0 isn't the highest peak? More 1/60's are sold than any other, but apparently the 1/48 is the must have valk. It looks like a significant number of people are skipping out on all the rest just to have the best. :D

You know what they say: there are lies, damn lies, and then there are statistics :p

So s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d has the most with 16 1/48s?  42 1/60s? 31 1/72s?!?!? WTH?  s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d who in heck are you bombing?  :unsure:

Ok, let expand on the math further in which the money s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d spent on his air force:

16 x $150 = $2400

42 x $65 = $2730

31 x $65  = $2015

The grand total comes out to be $7145.  :blink: Please note we are using the average numbers here.  s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d can probably give us the numbers but let’s go with the facts at hand.  If s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d has that much cash to shell out, I am sure he could buy us some.  :p  Either that or s_i_t_h_l_o_r_d has declared bankrupcy.  :o

Ok, I upped my collection of 1/48s by one when my 2nd low vis arrived.  So I have 3 1/48s. But am not shelling out seven, I'd say again SEVEN grand on toys let alone on set of toys.

How old is that post, godzilla with 3 1/48's?? Saying hes not gonna spend $7K on valks, and then goes and spends 9K on 1/48s only!!

His current profile

"TOTAL 1/48 = 65 (Am I sick or what?)

TOTAL 1/72 = 4

TOTAL 1/60 = 8

TOTAL 1/100=6"

I would like to interview one of our 1/48 macross collectors (godzilla/kensei/sithlord), make it a dark like 3rd degree reporter uncovering the real truth of whats going down behind the scenes at MW:

"hey man u bring the good stuff?"

"yeah, you know only the finest"

"hows the quality"

"japanese dog, u know i dont deal any of that hong kong chiaat. Yamato 1/48's, ull be tripping when u transform these babies"

"keep it down, keep it down, i dont want no trouble ok"

"hey man i dont want no trouble either, u got the money?"

"i got it right here, had to sell my hoe's jewery for it, but i got it man"

*Seller shows fresh 1/48 boxes*

*buyers eyes dilate*

Seller: "man ive nieva said this to a customer before, but i think u need to lay off the valks for abit, re-coperate man. People will start suspecting if u keep this up"

"I got this under control, u just hand other the chiat"

~The deal is made, this is just another sad story where the common man, who u never would suspect, quenches his addiction. A man you would never suspect, just your average neighbour, maybe even your sun. If we dont do something now, it may be too late.~

Doods this is not jealously, but wot u do with 65 valks :p?

And how do you choose when to buy, like at 64 valks, wot makes u want 1 more??? :ph34r::ph34r:
