I heard the arms are more durable on the double balls and bird of desk YF-19's. Thanks for the pics Razerwire! Haven't seen that many pics of those 2 19's, maybe I'll pick up a double balls eventually and snap pics, I like the color scheme. Holding out for an Isamu version just in case Yamato makes a v2.

I'm starting to venture into the mighty world of Macross, got a few toys on order which I'm looking forward to receiving. What Macross Tv series is considered must-see viewing?
The only series I've seen is Macross Plus and I loved it, I preferred the subtitled episodes to the dubbed-movie though. What do I do next?

The original is probably the best place to start. It establishes a lot of the key themes that run through all of the shows.

Macross 7 is meant to be pretty decent, although you really don't want to watch that until after you watch the original.

Macross Zero is a prequel, it's short and I don't personally care much for its story although the dogfights are nice. Macross Frontier is the newest series out, and you probably want to watch that one last, as it carries on the wider storyline of the original and 7.

I would also actually watch them in chronological order. zero, macross, plus, frontier. and yes, I skipped seven, I really went there!
freedom is the right of all sentient beings, and yes, animals are sentient too.

don't like how toys come from the factory? see how easy it is to fix by clicking here:

Oh yeah, I almost forgot that I did preventative maintenance on that part on both of my YF-19s. There's a thread on how to do this on MW.

I should look for that thread.

Mine doesn't seem to have the issue of the of stress at the nose of the jet at the breaking point though.

Is it irony if I replaced the arms of my 0S in fear of them breaking only to have them still crack? I just got finished performing emergency surgery to fix one arm and I believe I'll have to do the other one soon as well. Same exact condition as all the previous zero toys, cracked shoulder.

Good thing I kept the original arms around! Why must something so awesome be so cursed?
Robots and guitars. Whats not to love?
