I saw this in Madrid, also called CdZ, and my french neighbors sons had the 
toys and videos by Bandai.  I have since learnt that this is Saint Seiya (sp?)
from Japan,a dn I found it somewhat pointless, for all I love mindless violence
though this may have been because my grasp of spanish is not as I might like.

Alot of people already said this to me so I'll give one last public post about
this fact. How effective do you think the EARTH Union Government be if they
were forced to operate from a SPACE colony where the majority of the people
hate their guts?? If they move to space there's no second party, no superiority
complex to speak off, everybody would be equal cause everybody are SPACENOIDS.
The friction came mostly between the people on Earth and the people in space.
This friction would no longer exist since everyone are spacenoids. It's clear
as ice.

Frankly, I think you should go back to numbers 13 and 15.  Freedom isn't
something you can win in a day cheaply; look at the American Revolution
(our longest war before Vietnam) or the end of the Raz in India.

ORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

17) So after the EUG government, instead to trying to kill every THING on
Earth.  You know, moderation, instead of 'Kill them all, and let God
sort them out'.  If you can hit Jo-burg with a mult-gigaton space colony
you can bombard it with something in the kiloton range and just take
out the capital.  This would leave most of Earth's ecology intact,
along with the defenseless civilian poplulation.

   The store I frequent also got USMC's Supergal and UY 2.  Would you
mind posting a brief capsule-type review of these two?  They're kind
of expensive to buy on an impulse.  The same store also had AnimEigo's
BGC Hurricane Live 2033, for $34.95!  $34.95!  Needless to say, I
didn't buy it.  I was almost tempted to pick up Streamline's Nadia
Volume 5, but I'd rather save my pennies for the KOR Movie later this
month.  Another thing...Criterion's Akira LD packaging claims it's
"The Best Japanese Animation Ever".  While it's good, can it be the
best ever?  ^_^

Hear, hear!  Another Vision fan!!

But, I'm curious about this idea of lost money.  Is that just your
opinion or is it based on some market research conducted by either
Artmic or Youmex (or both)?

Ah, but the question remains: does that line refer to anything besides
the current new manga series?  Currently available information gives no

Hello everyone,

	I am sort of new to this anime thing (I stopped, God forbide,
collecting a couple years ago) and would like some help.  
	I am looking for information on clubs, traders, and anything else you
would care to send.  I would also like to know when the next FAQ is coming out
since I'm also new to this group. (I guess that was sort of obvious)  And 
(last thing, promise) if there is an archive for scripts and such and where to
find it if it does exist.  Please mail me at the above address.
	I have one more request. (okay, so I lied, it was only a little white
one)  Are there any clubs in the Ames, IA area or BBS's in the (515, 319, or 
712) area codes.

				Thanks a quadzillion in advance,

I can't answer this (I have even more clueless dictionaires... :-)),
but "Sailor Moon" uses both "akuma" and "youma".  From the context,
I assume that they mean essentially the same thing...

Perhaps the usage is clearer if I note that the 'good guys' (Luna and
the Sailor Senshi) use "youma" and the 'bad guys' (the Dark Kingdom)
seem to use "akuma", though both have infrequently used the other's
term as well...

Reply-To: jimn@phred.UUCP
Organization: Physio-Control

Over a year ago I received an ad from Pony-Toy-Go-Round in Los Angeles for a 1/55 scale three-way transformable, poseable Super Valkyrie by Bandai. Animag had the same ad a month or so later. I did some checking and was able to get it from one of the local anime stores here in Seattle for about $10 less than PTGR. We got it for our son for Christmas (he knew our Macross movie video inside and out, but all the Valkyries he'd made up to that time were of Legos). It was an instant hit, of course! 

I'm still impressed with the quality of its construction and materials: they're very good! The transformation process is particularly ingenious, especially since Bandai's design engineers solved the problem (that I felt plagued the model kits) of having to remove the legs and nose cone to assemble the Battaroid configuration. It's in white, black, and grey plastic, has self-adhesive decals (the Skull Squadron, I think), the belly or "hand" held gun, grey removeable rocket motor, arm, and leg pods, as well 

as a black canopy cover for the Battaroid mode. Easy to follow instructions are included. It's poseable in all three modes and is quite sturdily built of high impact plastic, nylon, and metal in several key joints and supporting structures, including landing gear. And at 1/55 scale, it's significantly larger than its closest 1/72 model kit counterpart. Overall it looks like someone put a LOT of thought into it.
 
A few years earlier, Toys-R-Us offered the same item (but in a red finish) as part of the Transformers line! Macross Valkyrie ace pilot Roy Fokker must have spun around in his celestial grave more than once because of it. 

Although it's probably classed as a toy, I would un-hesitatingly recommend it to anyone interested in mecha... Macross or otherwise.

Not only the lack of oxygen...but the Zentraedi ships have a knack for

about June) and I've just recently started looking for mecha models,
especially Valkyrie models (Robotech was my introduction to anime
and I still like it despite the despite unpopular opinion).
	I just read your article on the mecha and am interested,
could you send me some more specific information?  Specifically,
price range and a store name and an address since it's unlikely
I'll find one in Palmdale or Lancaster, CA, and I'm headed home to
New York soon.
	If either NewType or GTC (from the FAQ, some of us
newbies do read it!) might have it, then I have send for their
catalogs and should know soon,  but I would greatly appreciate
any more info you might have.  Thanks for your time!
