SCOOPUDA! Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 It is my pleasure to bring to MacrossWorld a random oddity from the depths of some Japanese guy's basement. Yes, it's the legendary Macross Zentradi Stamp Kit, by Nichimo. I had never seen one in person, never saw a review or anything, struggled to find any data on it for decades, so I figured it deserved its own epic story, complete with a beginning, middle and end. So, on a rainy day in the Asakusabashi district of Tokyo, three MW guys -- Save, Bariaburu Faita and myself -- sat down and made some history. Or at least recorded a video. In Part One, we talk about the background of the item and our personal search which took us halfway around the world. Â Browse the original archived MW Nichimo page here Stay tuned for Part Two, coming to a net-equipped device near you soon!
