>>6461853

Colors look better than I remember the other release being. Still not best Macross, though. Modern gokin TV version when?

>>6461853

>>6461901
Do you think they will release one?

>>6461911

Holy shit link

>>6461853

Up on amiami

>>6461941
So the regular version will be out in November and the premium version will be out in April. I may go premium just to give me extra time to save up the likely $500 this thing will cost.

So uh...did everyone forget that this isn't actually a new product? Yamato put this out years ago. Still nice for those who missed out though I guess.

>>6462279
Oh, no, you're the only one here that knows that.

>>6462416
Sweet, just checking!

>>6462279
You do realize that it goes for between $700-900 these days right? Or at least it did.

>>6462011

Whoa. That's. . . actually pretty sweet.

I wasn't really planning on selling mine but losing half its value overnight sucks.

>>6462011
Awesome, but wont the black light discolor the plastic though?

>>6462009
Are there any other major differences between the two besides paint apps?

>>6462972
nope, but the paint and detailing makes the normal plain SDF-1 look so much better.

>>6462971
it shouldn't , but that will all depend on what plastic they used. Arcadia use good plastic , I haven't seen any of their stuff get yellow yet.

>>6461986

Ah, the irony of a photograph of a 'do not photograph' sign.

Did they ever explain the point of the SDF transforming into something like a humanoid mode?

>>6463218
The canon was not able to draw power and the ship was forced to transform to connect the reactor power to the canon.

I think

>>6463218
they needed to realign the flow of energy to keep on firing the macross cannons

>>6463222
>>6463224

...Okay...

>>6463240
The SDF-1 is a crashed alien ship rebuilt by humans. It can transform because alien. The valks were based off this technology. Watch the fucking series.

>>6463222
Yeah, after the fold from Earth to Pluto the fold drive disappeared and it was incorporated into the conduits between the engines and the main gun so they had to realign the ship so that they could bridge the gap. Also, it looks fucking neato.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

It hurts to live.

>>6465272

I did watch the series, gentlemen, but it has been a while.

>>6465598
They also never explain the humanoid shape. They have to reconfigure to reroute power but the show never really deals with the fact that makes the Macross look like a giant person.

>>6465272
>Reddit spacing

I have read this before and I'll be damned if I understand, having never visited the site.

>>6465611
Right? Especially since it wouldn't have had "arms" in its original build since the carriers were grafted on later. Pretty sure it was just a cool looking design that they gave us just enough of an explanation for and then moved on.

>>6465611
>>6465719
Yes they do, they explain how they grabbed the transforming technology from the crashed alien cruiser that becomes the sdf1, it transforming is due to that technology, they didn't even initially realize it was there until they needed it. Did you even watch Macross?

>>6465769
Sure, they explain where the transforming technology COMES from but not why the form is a giant humanoid, more or less. Pretty sure you missed the point of at least one of the posts you quoted.

>>6465774
Look at the higher ranking mecha that the Zentradi use, what form do they take? What technology are they based off of? Oh, the Supervision Army that employs humanoid shapes in their stronger mecha? The same Supervision Army that created the ship that turned into the SDF1? Are you retarded? Do you bot understand? Go back to your fandom subreddit.

That looks so rad, I'll wait for the premium too. I can't believe they're re-releasing this, but definitely not going to skip it this time.

>>6465774
Just a coincidence of design. ;)

And hey, how else are you going to punch enemy cruisers and fill them with missiles?

>>6465614
No one here who calls anything "Reddit" or "Tumblr" has ever been to those sites either. It just means "thing I don't like, and arbitrarily associate with another community that I don't like."

>>6465789
Uh-huh, because it looks cool. Also, you should relax, your butthurt is showing.

Gonna bring up another suit or power armor next?

>>6465797
The SDF isn't exactly proportioned like a human, either. Basically the idea is that it gets arms and legs.

>>6465830
Yeah, I agree. Just saying that the reason provided in the show was a clever, but disposable, excuse to make the ship look like a giant robot and punch fuckers.

>>6465816
Yes because I said higher ranking mecha

>I can't believe they're re-releasing this,

It's long been rumored that one of the 5 moulds arcadia bought from the defunct yamato was the 1:3000 sdf-1. It was a matter of when not if.

Any news on Battle 7 yet? Last I saw of it, it had the paint applied.

>>6469799
no shut up

I've never gotten one of the macross model kits, are any of the ones from the original show that transform good? People seem to be mixed on them just from reading some youtube comments and watching some videos.
