Any truth that this may get a reboot release or update?
@@MrDEMarq Robotech or this SDF-1 toy? KitzConcept said they were working on a possible new SDF-1 toy but that's a long while off if it ever happens. Robotech is dead as far as reboots or sequels and the proposed live action movie seems very unlikely at this point.
@@ScorchedEarthToys Yeah, I know the series is pretty much dead due to miss management.
I meant the toys, but I guess that without a series there can be no toys?
Hi! I saw the arm broke for your sdf-1 and you repaired it. Do you have a video by chance on how you repaired it?
@@masterlex34 Sorry, I owned several of these and have never repaired the broken shoulder joints though I have heard that it can be done.
I have this toy. It was a gift from one of my instructors at art school. He was one of the inkers for the Robotech comic book series in the 80’s. Love this toy. I had to repair one of the arms after it fell during a 7.4 earthquake up here in Alaska, but it currently stands proud along side my Exosguad hovertanks and various Veritech fighters.
It doesn't fire from cruiser mode again after that first time because when the space fold activates and then vanishes, the absence of the space fold system broke the power connections to the Main Gun, but Dr. Lang was able to reconnect the power to the main gun, but only when the ship is in attack mode.
i have two of the Robotech one, one was given to me by my grandparents (RIP) christmas in 1985, and means so much to me. i remember begging for Transformers in 1984, 1985, 1986 every year i asked for them. my grandparents had no clue what a Transformer was other then it being a robot that became something else, they found the SDF-1 at a store in upstate New York and bought it for me, i knew about Robotech and was shocked (i was 10) as the only toys i saw was the Matchbox figures for Robotech. it had some work done over the decades (had to replace the left shoulder with a spare i found) but it's complete. the 2nd one is 100% custom paint and other added parts to make it look like the Cartoon, the custom even altered the legs to make them spread out a little like in a few episodes. i also have the DYRL 1/3000 Macross, and the Macross Frontier Quarter ship. i REALLY wish they made a Macross Galaxy ship (just the ship not the "city" dome) sized to match these.
Great toy for it's time. Thanks for the review Jenius!
I had one of these when I was a kid. Broke the shoulder cannons off almost immediately.
I got one of these, I think form a flea market in the late 80s. Don't have any of the bits that aren't built into it, but the core figure is intact.
This needs a serious reissue!
But I'm scared to death after what Netflix did to Voltron's ending
and hope they don't get the right to a Robotech reboot.
It's kinda funny how the Yamato/Arcadia SDF-1 is packaged in an almost identical styrofoam tray, down to the number of bars over the top keeping it in place - even though it's in Cruiser mode rather than Storm Attack.
Unfortunate that the Takatoku SDF-1 really starting to fall apart there but then again, it's been a few decades and the condition it is now is still amazing all things considered. Although my heart's definitely with the DYRL 1:3000 SDF-1 by Arcadia, this is definitely still in my radar and I'd be more than happy to get this if I can.
Not sure what you're referring to, might have a spot or too that needs cleaning and some peeling stickers but otherwise that toy is still rock solid.
@@ScorchedEarthToys oh! I thought the pictures of the broken SDF-1 was yours! My mistake!
@@SparkRattle oh no worries, there were a few pics from broken and yellowed toys in this video... Those are definitely in rough shape.
@@ScorchedEarthToys They sure did look to be in bad shape. The broken ratchet swivel gave me goosebumps. But I've seen some people fix it up with some glue, a flathead screw, and small nut. But I sure love these despite the rather liberal artistic license from the line art.
Great video.
I have a Matchbox version with the arm ships from the KO that I'm currently listing on Ebay as I type this. I wanted to check a few things before typing out the description and this video was perfect. Maybe I should've replaced the shoulder cannon tips and the cannons in the legs with the ones from the KO so that I could've had all the launchers in it. I didn't even realize that the real one didn't have the triggers and only thought it was the ships that were changed. I've long since sold the KO after I got the original so nothing I can do now. Oh and I changed two of the shoulder cannons with the KO as well. That KO was very well made I must say. Having had both at the same time at one point, it was very difficult to tell the difference.
my best friend had one of these in the '80s... i was so fucking jealous.
Speaking of matsushiro, i just scored a matsu jetifre, minty white too!
Got mine coming in the mail.
Shapeways has plenty of items I can use to spruce this up in a display. 1/3000 scale F-14 Tomcats that I am going to have to paint up, as well as 1/1250 scale and others. I can have a bunch of these things buzzing around with near invisible wires holding them up in formation and have slightly bigger ones closer to the display screen to simulate perspective, i.e. craft that are further away and closer even though they are on the same shelf. There are also 1/3000 scale monsters I can have sitting on the Macross also. Slight yellowing on the bridge apparently but I can fix that.
I would have gotten this baby sooner if I'd known they existed. I had a tiny 5-8 inch DYRL Macross which I lost with the move and five years later I stumble on this video and was mindblown that they make larger and larger versions of this ship. Someone even built a model that seems bigger than a person.
Except for the pandemic, it's a great time to be alive if you collect things.
@L P I am 40. I've been around the world. I crushed it, got recognized for it. Was basically worshipped at work.
I own a house, am retired, have a wife and two girls. Two cars. I buy whatever I want, did I mention I don't have to work again, EVER?
I buy expensive shit,
I buy nostalgic shit.
Project all you wish,
But according to statistics, more likely than not you'll die divorced, paying child support up the ass and might even commit suicide over it.
When armageddon strikes I'll laugh over your grave if I have nothing better to do.
So pristine :/ I'm jealous. I have one of these, but I broke the ratchet joint in the arm long ago and the plastic has yellowed due to age. The box is also barely a box now hahaha.
I still have this
I have this. Great toy!
In the show the generators that charge the anti particle weapon was burned out on the first shot and they don't have the materials and equipment to repair it in space that's why it has to transform to connect to the secondary generator in order to use the weapon but doing so reduced their speed too that's why they had to transform back and forth.
Great work.
IT FANTASTIC TOY IN 80s BUT I MISS THUS AT THAT TIME, IT SAD MY CHILD HOOD.
It really saddens me that I will never have this toy in my possession again. :(
I saw one over the weekend at a retro con and they were asking $250 for it. Yikes.
Well that's another toy I am going add to the list. Going to have to watch the Big Bad Toy Store like a "Seeker Valkyrie
".
Oh no, this was a CLASSIC toy review, you're gonna have to hop in Doc's DeLorean and head to 1985 to grab one... or hit your favorite auction site. Shop BBTS for new stuff!
@@ScorchedEarthToys ah ok lol. But thank you for the review keep up the great work and I will make suggestions for other macross toy's in my search for my own.
I still have my Bandai/Matchbox SDF-1 in the box. 😝
Sweet
Where can. Purchase this piece?
I would have killed for this as a kid had I known it existed. Still woukd if I'm being honest.
is the Blue different on the Japanese one, you pointed out the white is brighter on the Robotech one, but the blue looked different 9:33 or is that the lighting effect on the toy?
I do think there's a slight difference in the blue of the two toys but since they've aged for 30 years, I can't say whether or not they started the same color or not. I suspect Bandai tried to use the same blue as Takatoku and the slight differences in hue were just the variability of the manufacturing process of the era and/or the effect of time.
I have the Bandai version that o bought at Kay bee toy store on sale for 10 dollars
tidal wave (transformers) is that you?
This is my shit right here
That looks so dated. Time for Bandai to update the SDF-1.
The bandai one looks more like a knockoff to the takatofu one lol
Please sell me one of your SDF1's so I can complete my collection if you have one your willing to sell send me prices
Damn, I missed out..
What is this？🤣😂
