If they want to get weird, there are some very cool ways to go weird! 😛

Thanks for the pic upload. I was hoping to see if they had a production run quantity on those special edition kits...nothing noted there.

Love the fact it is actually BOXED holding the gunpod! How crazy is that.

I recently picked up a 19 page Mospeada pre-production marketing art booklet on one of the Japanese auctions sites for a whopping $20 Included is an early description of what the series was going to be about, and it had some very early (Feb 83) pre-prod designs (Diver mode was referenced as Gerwalk in the text block...since what the hell is a 'diver'...but they knew Gerwalk from Macross lol. It is noted as Diver in the actual Art) Note the extra large cannons and the early helmet designs n the Ride-Armor, and the rounded heels and rectangular intakes on the Legioss. These are a right about the time of the awesome set released by Roger Harkavy in the "Imai Files" collection. https://www.flickr.com/photos/rogerharkavy/albums/72157623041361265/ Example of little differences-notice the earlier B&W version (feb) vs the awesome colorized from Roger (march)

1990 Telebi-kun with a little 1/55 action

Could you do a zoom in on this section? I've got both those special limited edition event kits, was wondering what sort of info they say about them

So for some variations, they molded all the hands in red, then painted them to match their color of the valk? Why would they choose red and not a neutral white or gray...so many questions

And nice box find on the 1/100 'Strike' LOL And 3 variants of that one, just crazy The variant/ko search is the hunt that always seems to continue giving

ok hold on....hold on GRAY HANDS version? So another set of variants on top of the variants of the KOs? wow...I would have assumed someone painted that(custom) and skipped over it, good work actually investigating it!

Watched with Subs enabled and from my run, it seems like the decals with the bullet holes are coming with the vf-1d, which would be awesome. They also said the VF-1D would have 23 'secret' changes from the VF-1J on display, so that us super interesting (if youtube translate is working) thanks for the video link!!

found that pic here...not on FB so had to get through some pop ups https://www.facebook.com/zbfghk/videos/wf2024-くもがた-超時空要塞-macross韋基利-valkyrie/430224242761270/

I thought we all had to have 1 to open 1 to keep sealed 1 to resell later 😛

ok...its April...when is the 2nd batch of these things going to be released so the prices drop down to something NORMAL I expect to wake up one morning and see 50+ of them competing on the 2nd hand market

What size is it? Anything to compare against?

Just got my order from the wise guys web store-was quick and cheap shipping this time...just $15 for 3x kits

That is one heck of a line up! It is amazingly hard to find ALL of them at decent prices. Do you have a picture of all your TRIPLICATES and greater?

ok-getting familiar with the process, be patient OK...so at the BOTTOM is a 'FOLLOW TOPIC' which Make sure that is enabled Then in your account profile, choose "Manage Followed Content" Then choose your email preference, and the more detailed 'change how the notification is sent' (optional) Ok...so that seems normal Now I can post this, and see what happens Will I get a notification on my own post? Anyone else want to post a 'test' real quick here too?

test 1

I know the PM emails work, but I think I may have default disabled the forum post ones, unless you chose to subscribe I'll check tonight!

Just saw this too.

Wow-another one I missed, nice find! I was too busy tracking down shoes lol

Hey Vic! Nice-you guys have your own store and can bypass all the ebay fees, great work!! I just did an order, the shipping was indeed MUCH better than ebay calculated. Shawn

A few weeks ago I was thinking, wouldn't it have been wild to have a DYRL Paint Your Own Cel series? Saw these for sale on YJ today...I could make my own set Maybe we need a 'make your own never-released Macross product' imagination thread LOL

its been so long I can't quite remember the details on the individual sets-but found this https://www.mechatalk.net/viewtopic.php?t=8726
