I see your Blue Prints Collection furoku (source of your avatar).... Do you collect them?

Colors and head are correct for a DF?...

Anyone have more info on these images? I don't recall seeing them before in any Kawamori or Miyatake art book....they are supposedly from a FamilySoft Macross game....

I purchased mine from Maiden Japan...not sure if he has any left or can make new sets....here are the links.... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=39941&hl=%20arm%20%20cannon http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=40038 Kurisama makes one also, but it is fitted for the most recent Yamato/Arcadia YF/VF-19's...

LOL...never thought of it that way.....at least they added Regult and Glaug cardboard targets!!! ....but you still get more points by shooting the SDF-1!!!

Studio Nue Macross early concept design sketches....255,000 JPY http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemInfoEn.html?index=295691

Maybe wait and see how this turns out.... http://www.peruprops.com/2014/12/macross-helmet.html?m=1

here is the pencil sketch.....

So the XCROSS "Macross & Robotech" looking helmets that are in "canon" schemes are $339.....and the "non-canon" schemes are $259.....a difference of $80......and to have one "fixed" is $85.....is that how the non-canon helmet prices are being subsidized?

Thanks.....a few more....

I have to admit that as soon as I received the Arcadia YF-19...I boxed up the old and "obsolete" Yamato version...but yeah, I liked it in Battroid mode so I had the fold booster hanging off its back when I had it on display.....too bad the arm cannon doesn't fit on the new Arcadia YF-19...

I like both of them....

try and get the arm cannon....makes it look better in battroid mode!

Here is the link to the closed auction: http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemInfoEn.html?index=266361 This is the furoku which features the hanken.....

...and you probably paid less than the lowest offered pre-order price...nice...which seller was it? There are about three selling them on ebay....sounds like your seller was aware of the need to provide better protection during shipping...

They might start with the Macross the First VF-1J....or something from Macross the Ride....

Per the description from HobbySearch... "- Is the in-from-, as a bonus element, comes with a monster of the same scale × 2 and the VF-1 Valkyrie (Normal × 8 / Super × 8 fighter form)." I'm not into kits, but I could use those miniatures for my 1/3000 Yamato SDF-1! .....around 2 bucks per mini before shipping isn't too bad.... Like the Monster riding shotgun....When is Tenjin's Third Sortie coming out?

I wonder if the newly reported "packaging" related issues are leftovers from the initial holiday shipments...or are they still shipping them out with shoddy packing? Send out packed in a way that damage is all but guaranteed = potential for another $85? I hope everyone gets their issues resolved, personally I would not drop a single dime more to get my helmet "fixed"....hope to hear some good outcomes from this mess soon.

So is this now the Macross-related product with the worse QC record ever?

I don't own that one in particular from the Megahouse line, but I do have this one....they are way more faithful to the look of the actual anime character than the upcoming Volks, which look sorta creepy like the rest of the Volk dolls...

Maybe...Yamato hinted on it....but Arcadia is no Yamato....

That looks really good....looking forward to the completed sample...
