I'd agree, the special stealth set came in a stuffed box

they are really good with orders, however on their video they had announced some delays. due to the move. I'm glad their moving cause I do order from them alot. just be patient. I'm sure they will deliver. It' takes a while to move.

1/3 are designated -play till they break- 1/3 collect for my future kids MIB - 1/3 to give to people (like patrick)

cool new parts, althought HLJ did send me a completely new VF-0S, paid me back for the shipping the one that broke because yamato was requesting it back. Overall I'd be in for the parts if they have more distributors that should make the cost of replacements cheaper.

I do remember it floating, those VF's are pertty cool they can do just about anything, even a temporary tent for hikaru and misa. That a nice pix isa_o, It's a coo way to pose your toys.

they discontinued supply on hlj.com, my favorite place to by macross. However, I picked it up from toywave.

I have nothing against graham. He's the man for all macross yamato stuff. I just expect that YAMATO lives up to the preproduction quality for the production toy. Otherwise why am I chucking out the bucks for a flawed production version while the preproduction version is considerably better. Take the VF-0S. the preproduction was excellent, yet mine that I ordered and paid over $ 150 for is flawed and breaks when transformed just two days from receiving the product. I'm just holding Yamato up to the quality they show us on the preproduction samples. I hope you agree, that if you see a product and pay a certain level of price for the product you expect the certain level of quality that the preproduction or production product holds up to.

so are your preproduction sample specially made better?!?

9 1/2 inches in cruise mode. I like this one; the joints are pretty tight, construction is solid, and the weight overall feels heavy. for it's size

pictures next to its older big brother

Just go the package; it reminds me of the smaller taka non transformable version. That was one of my favorite macross toy sizes and might I say the second in my childhood collection for macross toys.( broke it though when I was a kid) overall it is pretty solid. We have been spoiled by yamato's sizes but the details on this macross is kwel.

he's got the yamato connections

no blurry shots of yamato stuff

kwel

Plenty of focused pictures please Blackaces style

getting my order today DH had some pages showing transformation of the macross.

wow, portable. I like that.

wow cool another 1/60 yamato to buy and see QC issues first hand. . still gonna get one though

I know it's about to be scraped for parts. that's why I stayed away from this 1/60.

shoulder just broke

I don't mind paying for replacement parts, even to buy a new one.

I'm hoping they'll pick it up. (I edited my original quote. I meant since the original YF-19's came out. with the broken tab.)

I got it new from HLJ.com. I've bought from them since the original YF-19's came out. I'm just hoping that this one is a fluke.

Any suggestions Graham?
