I wasn't much of a fan to any M7 mech. but I have become fond of the VF-17.
It's mean, imposing, and different. It's not the agile type, but power type, which only existed before in Armored valks.
And not to mention that Gamlin is a decent guy.
**sigh**
One thing I like Bandai is that they do not care about mold recycling.
They have multiple Tamashii Web Exclusives every month, most of which are new molds for small runs.
**sigh**
P.S. I understand Yamato lacks the EoS factor. **sigh**
I would be dancing with joy if that is true.
Regults and Glaugs may be too large in 1/60, but give us the Battle Suits!
P.S. Actually Regults are not too large.
That's a very, very cool peripheral for an anime show.
HOWEVER, I hope they'd spent their resources on the Phalanx and Spartan. (sorry for bringing it up again and again... I'll be very persistent!)
I ordered mine at US$209.
Just for future reference, this shop carried it at a higher but still reasonable price previously.

I think it would have made a lot of sense to make a Hi-Metal VF-25 during the second movie. The DX and VF100 are now old.
Or at least that Robot Spirit VF-25S Armored.
It didn't happen, and I doubt how many years it would take, or ever.
From time to time I dream about Yamato issuing the VF-25 series.
I really hope Yamato has set a standard in Macross toys that Bandai would feel ashamed not to meet.
Bandai has all the resources. Top-notched people. It only depends on whether they care or not.
I still have high hopes for the YF-29. We'll see if Bandai already gets serious.
