HunchbackIIC Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I just hope they produce more macross goodness and further flesh out the universe. Offtopic: Is there a thread here for new members? I can't believe I just found out about this forum, despite having collected macross related toys for a decade now. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renato Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 So, I got this link in the Yamato e-mail magazine. http://www.yamato-toys.com/after/supportend.html It's a list of products which are no longer covered by the Yamato customer service. This is conjecture on my part, but i would say it's likely that they are not planning reissues of any of these particular items for a long time. I'm actually surprised at how long the list is. And I'm also annoyed because I just bought a 1/24 Ingram a few weeks ago which has some minor but numerous issues and I'm kinda stuck with them now.

Mommar Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I sincerely hope you are wrong I don't know how often that website is updated or if other things on that list have been re-issued at some point either.

jenius Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I do see the VF-1S Hikaru and Focker 1/60 V2 on that list. They're the anniversary versions but I find it unlikely we won't see more of those should demand exist. Of course, if we see more of them they will be the clear canopy new crotch variety. I wonder if the same would be true of other V2 toys on that list. The tinted canopy original crotch types are done being serviced but I doubt that means you should lose hope of a clear canopy new crotch version being released eventually.

Vostok 7 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 huh? Brown (Cannon Fodder/Mass Production) VF-1A with a "movie" A-type head (more angular, larger eyepiece and a black eyepiece surround). They could even make it an exclusive and I'd buy it. I just prefer the movie A-type head to the TV A-type head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vostok 7 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 That's what I'm hoping for. The FPs would be a bonus, I just want the DYRL? head. They already have the mold for it, just gotta do the right color (should be a slightly darker brown than the TV CF, like the original v1 1/60 TRU CF). I'd also kill for a Low Viz v1 (gray) and v2 (woodland camo) in 1/60. My Low Viz 2 1/48 is the only 1/48 I kept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moose Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Why would they abondon all these molds they put all this effort in to making them they should always release the most popular toys like Gundam does.I don't think they stop making a certain model unless they have upgraded it. I don't personally dont like 1/60 scale Vf-11 versions I perfer the 1/48, but instead of making popular colors and max out on it they would rather release some obsure colors ,25th anniversary in black, woodland camouflage or any other bizzare color. I mean why not release the fan favorites Low vis or something and have some competions were fans can vote on a some new color variations. I would like ot see some fan favorites back.

UN Spacy Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 The DX VF-25s had the 30th anniversary logo on the box. Does that count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I hope that this is not too off topic but I was just thinking that for the 30th anniversary it would be pretty epic if Kawamori et. al. made a macross 2012 movie bringing back the old crew, a more detailed version of flashback with more plot and filling in the story of Hikaru, Misa, Minmay and the rest. More wishful thinking I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 I wonder why they are rereleasing the 1/3000 sdf-1? I thought, being the super expensive and kind of niche market product that it is, that it didn't sell all that well to warrant a rerelease. At least, it was on sale at HLJ, and they still have stock?

ps99042 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 anyone seen these?http://www.collectio...ling_sd_macross I think...I...need... these! I hope produce a full line of these like the Gundam Converge line which is totally awesome. I wonder why they are rereleasing the 1/3000 sdf-1? I thought, being the super expensive and kind of niche market product that it is, that it didn't sell all that well to warrant a rerelease. At least, it was on sale at HLJ, and they still have stock? Sure enough it's still in stock at HLJ.com despite still being 15% off. If only reissuing meant the price would go down, I could grab one of these to display with the 1/250 fighter collection toys.

I am still kicking myself for not getting those when they came out (I thought I could wait on them a few months..) and I don't want to drop a car payment to get them again. Oh and a TV SDF1 as well. I love the DYRL one so much I would also get the TV one.......and have them battle Rockem Sockem style on my display case.....cause I can......Macross Attack vs. Macross Attack....TV vs. Movie.....who will win!........Drool......

Jasonc Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 That reissued 1/3000 SDF-1 looks more colored than the original. Maybe I just haven't seen it in forever, but it looks really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
