Oh god, the sacrilege!

Oh god, the sacrilege! Consider the Macross world offended... and yet, I can't look away. I especially like how the VF markings on the legs are molded on. The fact that you included the shots with the 'custom plane parts' does prove you are a bastard tho.

Nah, it just proves that I don't take anything seriously.

Stunner!

Wow Dave, another stunner!
I just can't criticize an item that makes a fellow collector sooo happy. That black hole on your shelf is now filled!
Nice to see another tone to your reviews, Mr. Happytime! If you point that shiny mouthpiece on the toy to reflect the sun, you'll blind the minds of the unbelievers! Gahhhhhhh!

Well, I usually try to

Well, I usually try to maintain (ie, fake..) some level of professionalism, but c'mon, how can anyone take this toy seriously? So why write a serious review of it? I figured I'd just have some fun at the expense of Macross, which I sincerely do wish would just go away already. Some of our sponsors may not want to hear me say that, but really, who's gonna follow the guy who bought THIS toy!?!?! LOL

Custom Valkyrie

I'm considering painting my Hasagawa VF-1J model kit like this! I'll call is the "Hong Kong Special" and maybe I will win a prize at Macross Con '09!

Another Classic Nekro Dave find!

Wow.....I am speechless. This is the bootleg toy to end all

bootleg toys. Is it me or does this remind you guys of the Transformers Pretender robots inside the shells? I guess at least they used paint, eventhough sparingly, on the mouth- not just stickers........DAN GER 75 (heh-heh). GUNDAN (heh-heh).
By not trying to make it look like any other Macross toy out there I give them credit. Most bootleggers try to imitate the genuine thing.

ebay? I just dumped all my Imai and Arii in the trash!

This is probably the most well thought out, expertly crafted toy review I have ever read. I've been a fool for so long.

I agree, it is expertly

I agree, it is expertly crafted, isn't it? If there's another one out there that manages to mix in the Misfits, Kiss and Bob Ross, I'd like to see it. ;)

Oh wow... It's like someone

Oh wow...

It's like someone wanted to paint it in the colors of the RX-78 Gundam, but eventually scrapped that idea.

This toy looks awesome! I love Who cares?'s designs, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to spend $my soul, considering this economy.
