hahaha, I admit, it was the gundam that got me hooked to mecha. Nothing beats the joy of building something and watch it works! rclxms.gif

Kamkam, I think it is time the animators treat the TF series in a more mature way. TFA is great in its own sense, but having a gripping and intense storyline will sure help pull back more mature audiences.

watching the first episode of Macross Frontier makes me panting for more. Even got a playback and slo-mo during one of the vf-25 transformation scene and damn cool to boot!

TS series over the years, although entertaining, but annoying kids, thin plots and lacklustre directing makes me feel they just want to promote the toys rather than the story.

What u think?

Oh, BTW, yamato macrosses ARE HUGE!
*
yup. i also think that way. maybe some of us can accept the way TFA are but some of us can't. too simple and a bit childish. since they want to attract kids to watch TFA.

yup. this is market strategy. they're short on ideas so have to get profit from the toys. it work anyway. but, if they make new TF series just like the video, with cool animation and story plot, they can gain many audience from all sorts of age.

Change is a must in TF series. thumbup.gif

He was there looking for some Star Wars figures, he collects TFs too but only selected ones... Nice chap, it was great chatting with him... But sadly I forgot to ask for his name when we parted ways...

I wonder how many times do I have to repeat myself, my parents do not fund any of my collections...ok? You think my parents are spoiling me? How can that be when they don't contribute a single cent for my hobbies? My parents are trying to keep good reputations for themselves, they have done nothing wrong and yet they are given comments like spoiling their kids. Imagine if you were my parents, everyone keeps telling you you're spoiling your kids when you are actually doing your best to bring them up well? Don't mind if you all offend me, but please don't use my parents name.

my suggested plot for THE REAL TF animation...

It was the year 2029....

In the bustling city of Kuala Lumpur ( or Tokyo, or New York...depends who produce lah...lol), the citizens were going through their daily routines. The roads are jammed, markets crammed, in short it was a normal day. Or is it?

Suddenly the sky shone bright orange, and thru the glare, thousands upon thousands of meteor-like things fall thru, shattering the earth. Buildings fall, vehicles exploded, the earth trembled like doomsday visited ( pinjam nama Doomsday jap).

In the aftermath, huge metro cities are nothing but barren waste. Out of the devastation, strange wraith like beings suddenly emerged from the ground, wiping out any military resistance with their strange weapons. The surviving humans are driven into caves, jungles, underground....wherever they can to escape the annihilation.

For humans that day, civilization is no more......

whoa. i know bro. don't get angry lohhh. it's just a common perception towards kids nowdays since u're too young to work and earn money but have a lot of TF collection. i know u earn it by saving school allowance. i've been there before so i know it. when i want to buy my star saber, i save my school allowance which is RM 1 per day. so i save around RM 20++ a month. which i collect about RM 250++ a year. but after i've bought it, my cousins, frens all say my dad bought it. but, i don't care. too lazy to lawan lohh. it hurts but the sweet thing is, i have Star Saber, they don't have anything. thumbup.gif what a sweet end.
