The VF-1D was the actually the first 1/60 VF-1 I ever got, the last time HLJ had them in stock they were also on sale, I got one shipped for only around $115.

I love my Alphonse, and I got the pit-road 1/24 command car, it really kills me that I never got to complete the set. I mean I still can, but it will cost more than I care to shell out.

I missed out on the Yamato 1/24 Ingram unit 2, I had like a month and a half where everyone had him and I said "Oh I'll get him next month it's no big deal". Now he is ONLY on ebay, for 2x what he originally cost, which was already pretty insane. The moral of the story, if you miss out on pre-orders or the first shipments, you're probably screwed.

Bandai DX Chogokin YF-29 Durandal Valkyrie

I downloaded the movie via torrent, it only took like a half an hour to download. -
I just want to know how long until the super parts will be announced, will they release the whole VF-25 renewal line then release the parts? I don't really remember how they did ti last time, either way I'd be in for at least a set, maybe two.
-
I got my order confirmation and all that good stuff from HLJ, one thing I noticed is that the grey goggle 1J is NEVER on sale. I didn't even notice when I ordered I just kind of clicked add on the things I wanted, expecting the usual sale price of a 1/60 V2. I'm not complaining, I mean I needed to get it to complete the squad anyway, but why is this particular V2 never on sale? It's not like he's rare, or new.

Commence Star Wars bluray Return of the Jedi added Vader dialogue-NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't know that was your channel, will you be reviewing all the renewal VF-25's as you get them?
-
As many times as I've seen the comparison shots, it still gets me how night and day the differences are, I can't wait for RVF-25!!!!!!!!!!
-
So the VF-25S is next, but what after that? When did Bandai release the original RVF-25? I don't remember how all the original valks released and if they're releasing the new ones the same way, but I'm really only interested in the RVF-25, I can't wait for that thing.

Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Tking22 replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
What? I'm not faulting anybody, what the hell are you talking about? Please don't try to get all pissy and start up a big argument where we both go back and forth trying to sound as smart and intellectual as possible, while all the while we're talking about plastic toys. Whatever you thought I did, I didn't. just relax I'm not uh, faulting? Anybody or anything. -
Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Tking22 replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
It's all personal preference man relax, I've been wanting a VF-4 since as far back as I can remember. I' rather have a beautiful uh, fan-wank valk, than a fat ugly flying turd. There is no doubt in my mind the VF-17 will be a fantastic figure, the SDF-1, the VF-19, all of Yamato's new stuff has been incredible, and I'm glad they're finally getting around to making valks fans have been wanting for ages. Oh and I personally don't see the VF-19 as that fat, I mean c'mon, the VF-17 is a flying triangle. -
I know it's right next to Christmas but I haven't gotten anything for myself in a long while, seeing as how I'm single again I'm gonna have an extra couple hundred bucks this holiday season . I gave in and finally got vermilion squadron, Kakizaki and Max TV 1A's, and of course a grey goggle version Hikaru 1J, oh yea!!!!!!

Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Tking22 replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I like plenty of stuff, hell I might one day be tempted to get a VF-17, if I see the right paint scheme, for the most part it's just too fat a valk for me to like, when I think valkyrie I think sleek, and slender. But like I said if I see the right version I might get it. I'll be honest, I usually hate everything Yamato does because I've been screwed by them many, many times, yet I got an SDF-1 and the VF-19 Kai, this has always been and always will be a hit and miss company for me. Oh and I personally don't think this thing is anywhere near worth the price, more than the Kai with what, half the gimmicks? Like everyone else said, nobody truly knows what it costs to make these things, every project is different. To each his own though, I know Graham and many others have been dying for this thing, all I've wanted for the past 5 years has been a VF-4, until it does get announced, with a $400 price tag -
Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Tking22 replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I knew if I tossed out the tiniest little bit of dislike towards this thing people would try to downplay my opinion, yes it was my opinion, it's ugly, the color, the mold, everything to me. And like I said if I perhaps saw it in another scheme, oh yea that means color scheme people, then I might like it. I don't know, I'm still a little ticked that Yamato would make this fat ugly mess before they tried their hand at putting out a VF-4, maybe that will be next on the line after they milk the hell out of this mold. -
Yamato 1/60 VF-17 Nightmare Diamond Force
Tking22 replied to charger69's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Damn, that thing is looking quite ugly. Maybe with a different scheme that mold would look good, but wow, just wow. And what is it gonna cost? Yamato's gotta make it more expensive then the fire valk, golden rule for them most of the time is to keep upping the price for every new mold. This is an easy pass for me, I still need a sound booster for my fire valk, and of course, save for Bandai's eventual release of the RVF-25 renewal version. -
The VF-25 looks pretty nice but I'm waiting for the inevitable RVF-25, that aside there's a ton of games coming out starting in October that are far more important than more shelf warming toys.
-
I fortunately have a walk-in closet in my guest room, and please believe that bitch is filled to the top with tons of different sized boxes. As some have said already, before I moved to my new apartment and had more room, I stored as much as I could under my bed, 1/48 boxes fit perfectly under my bed frame.
-
I'd say no you shouldn't, my roommate got 2 of the older 1/60 variants and they both pretty much sucked. I'd say just wait, yamato just released the new vf-19 mold so new yf-19s can't be that far off.
-
I am soooo glad I never dropped a dime on any of the original releases, I'm personally gonna wait until they release the RVF-25 as it's the only version of the VF-25 that I think looks decent.
-
You know I was thinking about this same topic the other day. I thought damn, I spent a ton on these figures, what if I ever wanted to sell them? Am I screwing myself? I have friends come over and ask about different stuff in my collection, then they ask about the prices I paid for some, and they usually call me a moron. It hit me the other day, I really don't give a poo what they're actually worth, what they will be worth, or whatever, I got them for me, I'm a damn nerd and I love it. I really don't see what collector's like us should be contemplating, I'm sure maybe a couple people bought their valks as investments, to sell later, but for the majority we don't plan on selling anything unless we fall on hard times, so basically I see no real purpose in giving anything in my collection a price tag or value.

I'm gonna get my friend a cannon fodder 1A for his B-day, for that much off I can't let it pass. I wish HLJ still carried the 1/24 Ingram Unit 2 that things impossible to find now except for ebay.
-
Eh, I may get an RVF-25 whenever it's released, that's the only decent looking version of the VF-25 to me.
-
Oh nice I couldn't find anyone else that had a pre-order for it, I'm gonna cancel mine on ebay and switch to this with money left over for when leader ironhide drops!
