Macross General

>>6082802
Yeah from a design standpoint it looks like Michael Bay tier shit

>>6082802
Macross designs died after the VF1s

Saving my money for the inevitable online exclusive grunt and drones pack

>>6082873
Oh, look, an N64 generic mech baddie render!

all the autistic shitposters, yeah it's a delta thread

>>6082802
Just got mine in the mail actually. Haven't opened it yet though.

>>6082802
New Optimus Prime?

>>6082802
Still waiting on mine. Really looking forward to seeing Mirage's up for preorder as well. That's all I need.

these designs got really bad is this because of harmony gold

>>6083348
Shit, that's what it is

Why do macross threads always have so many shitposters

>>6083363
because those guys are fucking poorfags who can't even afford the goddamn toys

Not really a fan of kawamoris recent back kibble designs, they look ok full armor though. Preordered draken, but probably gonna sell all my frontier stuff since it doesnt look like they'll ever reissue the armor packs

>>6084574
I want a vf-25
but I can't decide between the white one or the brown grunt version

>>6084574
I have a VF-29 Alto specifically because of that. The 29s don't feel "incomplete" without the superpack like some of the previous ones, similarly to the vf-4.

It's really hard to pose since it's as stiff as a brick and I'm afraid I'm about to snap something. Pretty impressive looking though.

Will Macross character figures ever happen?

I'd kill fuckers for Figma Minmay (yeah I know Bandai would keep that from ever happening)

>>6091509
Bandai is stupid, they just got lucky with Gundam.

Do we know anything about a possible Arcadia VF-1S Hikaru new release to go with the Roy one from last August?

>>6091715
>>6091718

nah no thanks
original SDF Mac only or bust

>>6091753
they got to start somewhere, if you want the orignal SDF then you need to buy the Delta so they will make the SDF.

>>6082802
How do you all feel about Robotech RPG Tactics?

Lots of classic VF1's and Battlepods.

>>6091715
Never Mirage though...

I'd love to get them if they actually made it easier to preorder the fucking things. Tired of Bandai's bullshit.

I just got the VF-0S in the mail, took a month thanks to NY taking forever to ship and Airmail being slow. I wish I wasn't a damn idiot and jumped on HLJ's sale earlier, oh well. Its a great figure, though I'm starting to get tired of Yamato/Arcadia's VF-1 and the scary shoulder joint that feels like its going to break at any moment. I'd love to get all the TV version VF-1s at least, but Arcadia seems to be focussing on DYRL, and the aftermarket is crazy on them unless you find a deal on Mandarake.

>>6091755
No, no he doesn't. Fucking Delta fag.

There's one where Mirage was in the walkure costume from the short special ,so they will probably make it a web exclusive if they were to make it

Will there ever be Valkyries under a hundred dollars that aren't shit? The Toynami ones are laughably bad and I see in the thread SH Figuarts might be making some, are those the only hope?

>>6091973
The Hi-Metals, but those are hard to get for a decent price unless you preorder.

>>6091973
Just get the hi-metal r . You can get them for under $100
Max super j is like $83
Hikaru j is like $70
Cannon fodder is around $60
Before shipping

Agreed! I think the 29 actually looks worse with its super parts, haha.

>>6091464
Looks awesome, grats on scoring one! Still annoyed that I forgot about that Bandai night. Missed both the VF-31 and the Metal Build Blue Frame Astray, dangit.

I'm optimistic that there'll be a reissue though, and at least I secured a Draken preorder.

>>6096024
January 6th!

>>6091464
What are the paint apps like? Did they fix the paint chip issues that plagued some of the previous Macross DX toys?

>>6101419
no paint issues

>>6096030
lmao u need to extend the end of the canon fodders head rofl

>>6092853
I've been meaning to get into some of these higher end transforming ones. This seems a good jumping on point.

I used to think these were really expensive but then I got into 3p

>>6102405
they are still expensive but they don't release stuff back to back like the 3p. And they hold their value and then some.

>>6102589
Fair. I just love the designs and would love to transform it in hand. All three modes look sleek as fuck

I'm actually a bigger fan of these designs than the older ones.

>>6102605
Wow no surprise there seeing as you were born in the 90s

>>6102613
I missed the 80's by like nine months which fucking sucks because I never had the chance to grow up with some of the classic 80's cartoons.

>>6102620
You will need to be at least age 5 to be consciously aware of cartoons and hold a memory of them. So you are behind even more.

In may of 2017 , preorder already started on the 12-16-16.

So I haven't touched anything Macross since the 1/48 VF-1J. What makes the Arcadia 1/60s so special that they are all so expensive?

>>6104236
Latest version of the Yamato mold
Yamato mold is the best out there right now
Has improvements
Yamato is dead
Niche product

>>6104242
Arcadia took over whats left of Yamato , got most of their molds. Release some of them under Arcadia , continue on some of their still in development molds like the yf-19 , and now working on the macross zero line .

>>6104242
>>6104444
In addition, since so much of Yamato's stuff ended up going on discount, Arcadia's switched to mostly made-to-order quantities, so there's very little available after (a pretty generous) preorder time. While Arcadia prices are pretty high compared to Yamato, they jump up higher due to them being limited to get on the after market.

>>6102652
This is untrue I've always had memories of space battleship yamato from when I was 3.

>>6104236
>What makes the Arcadia 1/60s so special that they are all so expensive?

They're basically the same as when they sold for under $100 but arcadia is in business and yamato went bust. The difference is largely economic

>>6104242
Not sure why anyone else decided to reply (probably the let me speak, I'm important too! crowd) as this post covers all reasons.

>>6108049
That post doesn't even mention Arcaida taking over yamato , updating molds, reasons why yamato went out , etc .
The only "me too" is you buddy.

>>6108090
>Latest version of the Yamato mold
>Has improvements
>Yamato is dead

It's already implied that Arcadia took over Yamato's production otherwise how would they have their molds?

>Niche product
Anon was asking for clarification on the price increase, the price increase is due to it being a niche product.
