  1. Amazing custom. Great job on it. Did you make the decals yourself?
  2. What baru said. What are you keying in the searchbox? I usually just go with the valk model + scale i.e vf-1 1/60. Usually gives me all of yamato/arcadia's. As for bandai's, vf-25 dx etc. Bandai's listings don't come up if I put in 1/60. Maybe cause the scale isn't defined. This works for me most of the time.
  3. It's a Tamashii exclusive. Meaning it's made to order, meaning you'll be able to get one at PO. No worries. Just go grab one when it comes up on the sites.
  4. Yup. Look in this section. There's a thread at the top of the page currently =P
  5. Not my own purchase but my girlfriend got me this the other week. Gonna paint it up in a custom scheme. Currently building it too.
  6. This one is two-seated. You see both pilots in there.
  7. Bandai's definitely trolling everyone. Looks cool though. I find it cool. Like it's strafing to its left.
  8. Having it released earlier, I got myself a birthday gift. Also received email by amiami saying that it'll be released by late march/early april. Apparently the price has been dropped a few hundred yen too.
  9. Don't forget the hands and arms! Eitherway, well said Tochiro. But I think everyone here is just joking about all the panic. At leaat I hope they are I'm sure many are looking forward to this release. Don't know much about the tweets though.
  10. LOL. That thing is huge!
  11. Well, we all know the 0D was coming and it's great to know that it's been confirmed. 2015 seems so far away... Any news on the variants that they'll be releasing for this year? Since they said that they'll roll out few variants per year..
  12. I'll double that BIlly bookcase. I just bought one last week from Ikea as the detolfs were out of stock. Didn't get the doors though. Was looking to get something cheap. Got the wider one about 86cm long. Gives you any height you wish to add per shelf. Imo, they're a good alternative to detolfs. You just don't have those glass sides where you can look at your collection from all angles. Front's good enough anyway.
  13. Great work. Love the paint scheme on the first one that you built. Like mickyg said, how's the paint holding up to transformations?
  14. Or if it doesn't have perfect transformation. On topic, I've restricted myself to getting only those that I really want and appeal to me most so I've been satisfied with my purchases. Only ones I'm missing are the 0, 19 and a DX 25 (have the bandai 25 kit). Been wanting one since I knew about Macross toys but didn't have the funds for the first releases. After those, I might spend on stuff if I have extra money or they really, really appeal to me, else I wouldn't.
  15. Thank god I don't intend to get this one.. The rate at which this thing is selling out everywhere is just ridiculous. Might consider if I can find it cheap after release.. But I doubt it.
  16. Extend the wings and force the other missile in. I usually put the outer one first and angle it to sort of force the inner one in without having both fall out on me. That's the only way I've found out how to really.
  17. Gone in a min.. Wasn't planning to get this anyway. I'm happy with my Isamu. I hope those that wanted this got their copy..
  18. Those no steps seem stickered. Also hope that the wings swing up more. Doesn't look angled enough on the fighter pics imo. That and the kite isn't straight =/ Else, great looking as ever.
  19. My only dealing with NY was for the YF-29 Isamu. Nothing bad to say about them there. The transaction was nice and smooth. They shipped it out within 1/2 days of having the item in-stock. I did pay for EMS though. So that might vary. In terms of customer service, I had no problems with contacting them. I had to change my order's shipping address and they replied my mails to them within 1/2 days too and it eventually got changed hassle-free. One thing to note is that I mailed both their FB page and the item details in my order. They responded quick on both ends. I think they have different teams on both pages too. Eitherway, both ends replied promptly and I had no problems.
  20. Ah.. I see them now. They're just lighter. Would be nice if it was tampo too. But I doubt it.
  21. That looks awesomeee. Hopefully there are no problems wth this new prototype and all's well with it. If not, hopefully they'll fix it on the next iteration (if any). I think those are just normal stickers. As you can see on the high speed mode picture, the left wing has the no step whereas the right wing does not. So the tampo would probably be like most releases and be a minimum. Mr.K's stated in twitter along with the pictures that the stand is not included. It's just been used to display the pictures. That's how it's always been with all Yamatos/Arcadia. I doubt anything will change about that. You just learn to live with it. Heh.
  22. Thanks! The stickers were abit troublesome and time consuming to trim but they were well worth it. I used Tamiya's Panel Line Accent Colour. It's like a ready made enamel wash, all you have to do is run down the paint down the lines. Any excess will be cleaned up with Tamiya's X-20 thinner. Gotta do it for my Hik 1S and Isamu 29 next..
  23. Agreed.. Wouldn't want to spend so much on this just to have it fall apart on us.
  24. Well, I got to panel lining and stickering my 1S,
