eugimon Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Really... of all the questions i needed to know was anything about the YF-21 What else is AS important? I'm easy to please. And of course, the new 1/60 line ;D haha, I'm right there with you. I've been dreaming of a perfect yf-21 ever since I first saw Mac+.

Mr March Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Ah, these are the moments I love. Official confirmation that stuff is coming. I don't mind not knowing 99% of what happens (though I'd be lying if I said I didn't WANT to know), but I love when a fellow fan like Graham can be given privy to information, confirm it to be real and then let's us know. Just knowing that officially more stuff is coming is a great reassurance. I really hate it when there is nothing coming down the wire, because you can't plan for it. Now I know 2008 is going to be big, so I'm saving up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vermillion01 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I wonder if G-man has been given a list of dates for when he is allowing to 'leak' certain bits of info throughout the year... like keeping us all on a morphine drip.... *november - YF-21 pics..drip.... january - VF11 1/60..drip..... march - reactive armour..drip etc* But seriously all new toys aside, we NEED to have our quality isseues addressed first.

miriya Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I am starting to wonder when we will get the 1% or if what Graham has already told us about 2008 being a great and expensive year IS that 1% and there is no more to hear. I am obsessively checking this thread in hopes of some tidbit of juicy information but I suppose I should give up (at least until after lunch).

Nani?! Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Good meeting. Found out lots of very interesting new stuff. Unfortunately as usually, I can't talk about 99% of it yet. However, I will say 2008 is going to be a fantastic, if extremely expensive year, from the sheer range of stuff planned. LOL Sorry for laughing Graham, but I just don't see the point in announcing a meeting and requesting questions like this for both your sake and ours. The real interesting stuff is only for your eyes and ears only anyway (99.9% of the questions asked are about them)~ so what's the point of the foreplay as if you'll come back victoriously with an exclusive scoop to tell us? (I say that jokingly) Just go when you do, find stuff out and let us know about the stuff we are "allowed" to know. It's only more tedious for you to have to back track 10 pages of questions, 95% of which you can't answer anyway. The tediousness of the task of looking at all those questions alone willl put you off and delay you putting up the stuff you can talk about. I really say this constructively, but whatever works for you, just my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big F Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) Next time Graham needs to take an associate with him he could start a bidding war here on MW and donate the proceeds to charity or something. I can see it now Yamato "Hi Graham how are you " Graham "Not bad thanks" Yamato "whose this you have with you" Graham "Errr !! this is my secretary, hes gonna take some shorthand notes for me" Yamato "Hmmmmm!!! yeah right" Edited October 23, 2007 by big F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mog Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Probably ABS or PVC. Nah, probably POM. Can't have those swords breaking or cracking while delivering the killing blow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumdumgai Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 yeah, POM. Because the pvc blade will become brittle, due to the contact with the ABS handguard. After a while of carrying, the force of pulling the blade from its sheath will cause the sword to break at the handguard, leaving you... "unarmed". Hahahahahahha... ehh... I'm going to go sit in a corner now for that bad joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 But if they do not use POM in the FV-0A/S shoulders and biceps which are tiny could they afford to make a whole sword out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham is like the local god of macross world. Graham is the founder of macross world. Graham is our lord and saviour. Graham is like the ultimate pusher for Yamato He gives us a taste and we come back for more. But seriously, Graham is really a great guy.

Mog Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 You forgot to ad that he's also a Dark Lord of the Sith known as Darth Maharg. Great. I can just imagine Graham sitting on his throne, gently caressing his prototype YF-21, saying to us "You...want....this? I can feel the anticipation swelling inside you. I am defenseless! Strike me down with your POM sword, and take your last step towards the dark side of Yamato!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicked Ace Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 What you don't think Yamato reps/ninjas lurk (and steal our ideas) on these boards? If this is the case, then I'm very, very happy for the upcoming release of NMB4M's 1/48 scale two-seater and VF-4 Lightning III. Oh, and I forgot to request that Graham suggest the possibility of releasing any scale VF-1 Valkyrie repaints with beam swords and some feathered wings. I wonder if Graham would have bothered to mention this to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
