jvmacross Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 Nice.....17 hours is a lifetime when it comes to trying to purchase "Japan Only" items from that site. So yes, you were very lucky indeed. There have been plenty of great deals that I have missed due to the ridiculous limitations currently in place. Hopefully, that will change at some point....I am sure the overseas demand warrants a policy change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swann Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Jvmacross or they were given away for the first day premier only. Star Wars has done that. They had a blue and silver 8 by 10 leaflet. Cast and credits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I bought for 1500 yen No, I think it was a media promotional item.....The one I have came with several other items that were geared towards promoting the film...sort of like a "press kit".....it came with posters where release date info could be written into "blank spaces" and other items....

jvmacross Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 Just going to add these here since they are part of the DYRL promotional campaign...... A couple of cels from the Macross DYRL Special Preview promotional trailer....... So basically, the main difference on these cels from the cels used in the actual film, is the lack of Focker's "yellow" chest stripe on his VF-1S.......maybe they did not have any yellow paint when the sequence was painted? The sequence that these cels are used in from the Macross DYRL Special Preview trailer can be seen here: Incidentally, the trailer goes through several "versions" prior to the release of the film and one of the final trailers actually has the "correctly painted" yellow chest striped VF-1S finally included...as well as the inclusion of the wrecked Regult as seen in the actual film sequence, which is also missing from the original "non-yellow striped" VF-1S sequence from the special preview trailer.....the corrected VF-1S sequence can be seen here: Another interesting bit of trivia regarding the "Special Preview" trailer is that is was actually storyboarded! Here is another cel from this Special Preview sequence..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swann Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 This one is headed to the "storage". I was at the edge of my seat for this one. During the auction, but it wasn't that bad. I did won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvmacross Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 This promotional poster does not come up often...I believe it is one of the first Macross promo items that references the film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macross in 1984. Was still lava hot, and products were constantly being made. It would have easily go up to $170 to $240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvmacross Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 Macross is great and we are here because we all agree it is....however, I am afraid Macross is nowhere close to being as popular as Star Wars or Gundam...perhaps it is as a result of its forced isolation from the world stage for the majority of its existence that has kept it from becoming anything more than a niche fan series...

Shawn Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Another variant of that poster...its the same long size, but the back is blank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Macross the Movie uncut ticket proof sheet? Not quite sure (about B2 size, from Yahoo Japan Auction pictures) If you compare the left and right sides vs known tickets(mine on bottom), those blue blocks seem to overlap those areas, so not sure these are actual tickets you would then run through a perforator to then have the lobby attendant tear off. Sticking with printing proof test run for now 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Macross the Movie Scripts Eri Takeda (Milia herself) still has her movie script, but she has a change of dialogue. She says in the final version they changed her line to Meltrandi,, but the script still has the original lines...basically "Is there no one who can fight at my level!?"...she would soon find out LOL Just awesome.

That auction was for this one-the one sided poster with the special bottom section. This is the variant. You gotta remember with Macross collecting, there is ALWAYS a freaking VARIANT. 😛 I have both now. The folded one. Hasn't been ship yet to the storage.

Shawn Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I think the single sided one is rarer that the 2 sided one I've seen the single 2x I think, maybe 3, but the double sided at least 5-6 times. for whatever that is worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
