Yeah, when is the YF-30 coming? It's plastered all over the advertisements for Isamu's YF-29. It would be odd to NOT make the 30 considering the promotional material.
-
The Naro kinda reminds me of a Y-Wing's cockpit.
-
I've never seen that SD Macross before....
-
Got a call, my package arrived at the house this morning. It's a long day at work, and longer day at the gym afterward.
-
Actually, I do have a question. What about for those of us who don't have the Isamu Colored 19 V.1? All I have is the Double Nuts and that ain't no beige.
-
But we will be paying in Yen, so that price should still stay low or remain constant even if the numerical value is higher.
-
Damn, picked up yesterday in Japan. Arrived in Memphis last night, is already in Albuquerque this morning. The United States Postal Service has nothing on Fed Ex.
-
What are you talking about, it is all new?
-
Regardless, I'm paying for both of my pre-ordered 25A's.
-
Actually, at Anime Export I paid 18700 for the P and 18720 for the 19F at Amiami, both were bought brand new at release.
-
I was kind of hoping they would include a fold booster with this as well... I don't need a light up one like the old version either.
-
What are you thinking of changing? I can't wait to see what this thing looks like on a V.2. It'll be that much more bad-ass with a proper Battroid around it.
-
Hmm, I thought it was supposed to be end of October.
-
What am I listening to right now? I'm just going to go the shameless self-promotion route and link to my own DJ set (it technically is in my car right now though.) https://soundcloud.com/jdcb-1/a-birfday

I'm with you Loop, I only collect Macross toys (Bandai Renewals, and Yamcadia releases) so that frees up a lot of funds for me.
-
Yeah, I'm saving for YF-19 as well. I want an additional set of Armor for a custom with a Max 1A like from the Master File book but it can wait (if it will happen at all.)
-
Hmm, well it's been almost two days and Fed Ex hasn't updated at all since receiving shipping confirmation. Maybe I won't have one by this week.
-
Take as many pics as you can once it's finished. This is one of the few I couldn't bring myself to afford and I'm kicking myself still. I need some big time vicarious living here.
-
To be honest I seriously doubt the VF-0 is going to cost what the 19 does. I'd suspect, still very high, somewhere between 22,000 - 25,000 yen. Possibly even less if they won't pack much else in.
-
Did you go ahead and jump? It says sold out.
-
There's more to it than just that. We also know Yamato lost money, which is why the Arcadia VF-1's are more expensive. That means the 19 models will have to be more expensive as well. You're also not factoring in that it's a niche fan base who they are only legally allowed to sell to in Japan. There's no mass market to produce for, not in Japan where the show this comes from wasn't as popular, so say anything about being able to produce it for world wide fans. Then you add in the facts everyone else has stated. It's complex, and the end result is things have to be more expensive then we would like. I know it's more than I wish it could be, but I'm aware of the situation surrounding the market and am not willing to get angry at because it isn't what I hoped/wished/expected it should be.
-
I'm interested in why you think we're taking anything "up the rear?" Can you explain why it shouldn't cost this much or how it's greed?
-
Unfortunately NY doesn't always do a good job shipping things right away. This time I got lucky and they shipped the first day. In the past that has not been the case with me either. It can be frustrating.
-
Maybe, maybe not. In terms of everyday use/office stuff Microsoft still rules supreme. But Valve has a lot of clout with a huge portion of the PC gaming community. If their OS really is so lightweight that people are seeing performance boosts in all of their games, that would be a large portion of the population suddenly using non-Miscrosoft software. At least when it comes to gaming. And all it takes is for one person in an internet forum to complain a game runs like crap and be told "run SteamOS" with a link to a tutorial how to do it. Others will surely have the same problems, find those posts and some will make that change as well. Not all, some people are too afraid to change any of their routine.

You need to play with one of the VF-19's in Battroid mode before you decide it isn't worth it. So much fun to pose and rock solid. Really, the fighter mode is beautiful too. You'll be happy with it, I think.
