ChristopherB Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Wow, thanks for posting the pictures. I'm a kano living outside of Manila in Olongapo/Subic. What's the name of the fast food chain? Hopefully it's not Chow King, as I can't stand the food there. Ha, ha Maybe we could have a PI MW Convention at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifbeat Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 These are great! Nothing like some pancit and macross! =) Much better than the usual Jeepnie toy. I don't live in the Philippines, but we do have a Jollibee here (In Vegas).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbeat Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 BTW, do you have a picture of the packaging? Like, does it actually say MACROSS on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vostok 7 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Looks like it's based more on the Toynami SuperUNposables from many years ago more than the Revoltech Valkyries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifbeat Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Nice. Thank you. Obviously modeled after Toynami's Superposeable line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it's not Chow King, as I can't stand the food there. Ha, ha Maybe we could have a PI MW Convention at some point. Well Chow King isn't Jollibee but Jollibee Foods Corporation does own Chow King. They also own Greenwich, Red Ribbon, Delifrance etc. I may buy some after my hospital appointment.

eriku Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Cool! I miss seeing cheapy stuff like this. Why did this get moved to the "Other" forum? They're Macross/Robotech toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanzerfan Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Thank goodness we don't have any of those restraunts here in Texas. The freaking things can't even transform right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Toynami has officially cheapened out. George Sohn is obviously out for money now and I don't see him attempting another Masterpiece (or whatever worth buying) ever again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glane21 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 How crazy that 20 years later, with no current tv series, Robotech makes it as a kid's meal toy. Incidentally, there was also a kid's meal Voltron toy in , I think, Australia and/or the Philippines that is scaled down Toynami Masterpiece. May be from the same food franchise since they seem to have a Toynami relationship going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Why did this get moved to the "Other" forum? They're Macross/Robotech toys. Because they're Robotech toys. Packaging says "Robotech Veritech Guardian". That's about as non-Macross as it gets. http://cybertronphils.proboards.com/index....0195&page=1 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...75&start=75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigkid24 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 If I lived there I'd get those. Better than most kid's meal toys in the US nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
areaseven Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Looking at some of the pics above, they have a holographic sticker that says EIMC Empire. After doing a Yahoo! search, I found Empire International Merchandising Corporation, a company that licenses major brands and franchises for merchandising in Asia. Here's their RT page.

areaseven Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I was also wondering why it was moved in the anime category. Anyway, as long as we share the same interest, I'm good. It was moved because it focuses on Robotech toys, and the Toys section is strictly for Macross stuff only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedWolf Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) Just bought them. Looking at it closely as usual as with kiddie toys it is Made in China. Roy Battroid Exclusively of Jollibee Food Corp Made in China at the lest leg of the Roy Battroid. I didn't inspect mine closely it is missing the gunpod. It is a brick as it can only swivel shoulder-arm and hip-leg connections. Strike Pack barrels can swivel. Millia Fighter It rolls and swivels its wings. Its strike pack is different from the Battroid. On the right wing reads Harmony Gold USA Inc. On the left wing same as above. Exclusively of Jollibee Food Corp Made in China. Max Gerwalk Like the Millia Fighter it can swivel its wings. Half of its pack is identical to the Milia one. The other half well is an annoying missile launcher. Another annoying thing is the piece below the nose cone. Gerwalk can only swivel its legs and is armless. The lettering under the wings is the same as above. A little bit of local toy history. The last time there was a toy promotion with Gerwalks and Battroids was tiny plastic model toys included with Enervon C syrup vitamins in 1989 or 1990. Shocker is it did not run under the Macross or Robotech brands but promoted as Battletech. The ones I had as a kid were the Tomahawk/Warhammer and Land Air Mech Gerwalk with arms and a Battroid mode.

AcroRay Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Oh, these are too much fun! My kids and a couple of their friends would absolutely love them (and so would I, for that matter)! Too bad the chain isn't in the northeast US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
