Gabe Q Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Hey, how come this one's cheaper than the Milia version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Because Yamato said there was gonna be a price drop. I guess they just needed to cover production costs with the first one. I wish it could have dropped more though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do not disturb Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 i'd imagine it has to do with the lack of sales in the US, becuase most of the overseas retailers are making their money off the US fan base. not too many people here in the states picked it up hence, they had a price drop. well, it seems logicial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
to177 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Is it me only or does the Max color looks more like a light purple? If so, I might get it as my Purple Production Rau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scand Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Wow, that flat butted non-articulated figure added thirty dollars to the Q-Rau's value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neova Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 (edited) Wow, that flat butted non-articulated figure added thirty dollars to the Q-Rau's value. No kidding. I would have gladly gotten a Q-rau without Pilot Millia had we all known about the CMS set. Edited June 3, 2004 by Neova Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXO Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 (edited) No figure? That's ridiculous... Oh yeah the G.I. Joe would fit but they're too small. I found something better... Edited June 3, 2004 by >EXO< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen their complaints to Yamato are even more vicious than ours - regarding everything. I'd imagine the Q-Rau is no exception. But the lack of pilot figure is definitely part of it.

Godzilla Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 I dunno. I didnt buy the first Q-rau. Yes I like Millia but the price is what turned me away. Now if the Green one shows up, I am up for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocco_77 Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 No figure!?.... Go figure. That is really STOOPID... Hopefully the "sold separately" figure will have articulation... The color is a little odd too.... My completist nerve is twitching.... I'll see how long I resist. So Exo... What did you find that was better?

do not disturb Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 yes i have DYRL and i've seen it a bunch of times, inlcluding the scenes w/M&M flying around and fighting together. my real question was, how the heck did max pilot the rau? again, i don't remember him entering any "growth chamber" which was the point i was trying to make. one minute hes piloting a valk, the all of the sudden hes super-sized and piloting a rau? seems like a HUGE hole in the story IMO.

It's a 2-hour movie. But if you must insist... You do know the Zentraedi had those "growth"-chambers as shown during Gloval's 9/11 ceasefire-broadcast, right? They shrunked down the lolicon-3 to human-sizes. And as explained by Misa's interpretation of the Protoculture, both Zentraedi and Meltrandi used to be together before separating and having a civil war. Ergo, if the Zentraedi had them special-chambers, it follows that the Meltrandi also have them as well. And Max beat out the best Meltran-ace, therefore it's only both honorable and tactically/strategically sound to keep and enlist/incorporate the one the beats your ace into your army.

Ido Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 The captain showed the growth chamber in the peace event, i think is useless show Max become a giant, IMO is a great thing see him immediatley in the giant form pilot a QR, it's a big surprise.

Graham Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I wonder how can Max see clearly without his glasses after being macromized. Giant contact lenses Or perhaps the macronization process corrects genetic defects. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF-19 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I wonder how can Max see clearly without his glasses after being macromized. Giant contact lenses Or perhaps the macronization process corrects genetic defects. Graham More realistically, though, it's possible to make the visor one giant perscription lense, provided both his eyes require the same perscription strength. I've heard the Royal Canadian Air Force was experiementing with these (I even got to meet one of the involved researchers), but I don't know what came of them. But that Max Q-Rau looks mighty nice.
