Ah, cool, Macross Collector's thread... rclxms.gif

I'm planning to start collecting Yamato Macross models... Saw some today at a specialty toy shop, am very impressed with the detail... The only thing that scares me is the price... shocking.gif

I'm thinking of getting the VJ-11B first... or the YF-19 with Fold Booster & Fastpack... hmm.gif

There used to be quite a lot but mostly had discontinued, sadly... sad.gif

I notice, in most cases teh transformable version is more expensive then the "static version" hmm.gif
*
That's becoz transformable versions have a lot more moving parts mah... So the price definitely more loh... smile.gif

Its not exacly a Macross movie, its gonna be from the US based Robotech franchise which is a rojak of several "sagas"... Macross included.

Head on over to http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/517012, there seems to be another active discussion in the anime section

Sell my steering? blink.gif But my steering is worthless...

Its a matter of setting goals...... if u put it into perspective a Yamato VF0/1 is not that expensive in the grand scheme of things... a weekend out with the boys or that favorite someone could cost half to a third of the toy... so sacrifice 3 nights out and u have ur toy!!  I assume the toy to be in the region of RM400-500.  A night out could cost u RM150++.....

Actually, I can afford to buy it, I just haven't allocated funds to buy Macross yet... smile.gif

Hi again i try another experiment with hand painting MACROSS MY 1st and only 1 macross collection but personally i think yamato macross classfield more to model kits than toys due to it's very very flegile and easy to break like model kits but i counter it some how at few location and fix a few production faw from the macross VF-0S permenently  (i think gua)^.^ i do repaint everything + weathering as well but still very scare of breaking it parts on the process  sweat.gif .

the Valkyrie looks a bit futuristric... & Yamato just got the new project to make money.

I guess this new macross series,will still be involving with songs huh..

Yeah, the timeline of Macross Frontier is supposed to be after the events of Macross 2 and Macross 7, so the mecha will definitely be futuristic...

Yeah, the blond haired babe in the first pic is the new idol singer... Cheryl Nome...
