  1. Is this the nail polish method? I tried clear nail polish on one of my v2 vf-1 hips, but that only lasted a couple movement of the hips..
  2. Quick question about Yamcadia VF-1 toys. Does wearing the super/strike parts cause any problems with the hips loosening over time if I display it like that for a while?

    I transformed my VF-1D this morning from battroid to gerwalk and fighter. Like others have mentioned earlier, I can't get the feet to rock back far enough for gerwalk so that's a big disappointment. Fighter mode is nice and tight, but the Yamcadia fighter mode is my preferred toy for that. I think the battroid mode is where I'll leave it from now on. It's the mode where I feel this small scale really shines for playability. Bummer about gerwalk..

    Is it suppose to have as much rotation travel backwards as far as it does forward? I also felt like the back rotation for both the feet seemed a bit limiting on my 1D.

    Yes, I also felt that was the case when I was handling the HMR. I wish Arcadia would redo the VF-1 hips to be more like Bandai. That is the greatest improvement that I'm thoroughly enjoying. Bandai is amazing, but I'll still root for the small guy ^^

    Wow I'm really impressed with this HMR figure (my first one!). The playability is similar to robot damashii figures and I really like how balanced the figure feels with the metal feet, like the DX VF-1 toys. The VF-1D reminds me of something out of Star Wars. I think I'm hooked.. lol

    hlj shipping notice received for vf-1d and kampfer ^^
  8. Omgosh that is a heck of a price increase ><
  9. Wow. Magnificent. That blue is mesmerizing!
  10. I do prefer Yamato Valks when it comes to the shade of white used on the VF-1S V2 toys lol
  11. Now that I'm committed to at least the Vermillion Squadron and a Roy DX, I'm thinking real hard about slowing down on the robot spirit line to make sure there is enough space for the giants. Lol I love my robot spirit Gundams and they are so fun to play with, but Macross toys are such delightful pieces of art to own Each Macross toy I can appreciate and view as a unique masterpiece on it's own.
  12. That's pretty good lol
  13. Look at all this teamwork. You guys are great. Thank you very much
  14. OMG thank you I got one in!!! Yippeee!! I didn't waste my time staying up. lol
  15. This is so sad. I feel like weeks of planning and anticipation wasted I feel pathetic staying up so late with no victory before I doze off.
  16. wth. missed both amiami and hooby search.... and where the heck is hlj??
  17. Oh man I'm so freaking excited for Max! I don't want to pose my toys too much to keep the joints nice and tight so if I am able to grab two Max DX toys I'll designate one of my Max toys as the "beater" VF-1 DX and pose/transform the heck out of it. Lol

    I hope I don't regret not getting this (saving for the TV Max DX pre-order). It has a very cool fighter mode but I'm not just not the biggest fan of it's battroid mode, which is my favorite mode to display a Valk. I believe I only want to get the VF-4 because everyone else on here seems to be getting it and plus it's available right now, no waiting... Lol
  20. Anyone experience any looseness from this toy or is it holding up pretty well so far?
  21. I thought the 1J would be enough for me, but now I'm thinking Vermillion Squadron plus a Focker. I need to make more space >< lol
  22. BTW, how do you guys hold this toy in 1/48 scale? I usually pick it up with both hands by the legs with my pinkies resting under the feet. The 1/60 I could comfortably hold it by gently pinching the chest and backpack since it was light enough where I didn't feel like it would cause any stress on the toy. With the 1/48 I don't feel comfortable doing that since there is so much weight in it's legs. Lol
  23. Yes! This is my dream Macross toy I wanted to pick up the Yamato V2 version of TV Max, but it has always been a bit expensive paying aftermarket and I really dislike the initial V2 redesigned crotch locking mechanism.
  24. Mine came with a little out the box. It was definitely not from mishandling.
