Nothing will ever beat the "Thunder Hummer" for me.
-
It certainly do - nice work on the gold visor
-
I hope so because I avoided that yellowish mess that Yamato crapped out the first time. My body (and wallet) are ready.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Great to see some 1/48 love as well as their siblng, the beautiful VF-0A with matching ghost booster. -
The fees are also a killer as well as shipping cost twice, once from seller to proxy and the second time from the proxy to you. And the proxies use a horrible conversion Y-$ rate so they get you there as well. Typically, ebay is cheaper for a lot of stuff once you add in all that, but sometimes the stuff you want is only on YAJ.

I'm pretty sure they realized that but a little thing called gravity was probably more important
-
Wow, people are starting to lose their minds.

Some countries just rake your over the coals. Here in the U.A.E. it's a reasonable 5% if the value is over $250. Europe I hear though is ridiculous.
-
Very well said.
-
Really clean. Better than anything that would have been done officially.
-
Feel your pain bro. I hate it when they do crap like that. I'm not quite sure why it's so hard for sellers to figure out their stock situation.
-
My thought as well.
-
Bought two more; I think I'm *finally* done (maybe)
-
That's mine - new 1/48 Thunder Hammer Valk - price not to be discussed due to sticker shock (puts all of the above to shame )
-
Sorry to see that. In any case, if the company doesn't care, then I don't care to buy their products.
-
Nice. Very clean.

1/48+fp's, 1/60+fp's, 1/72, 1/2k, 1/3k,1/100 and now 1/144

Interesting. Looks a little strange though. -
The same doesn't hold true for 1/48 though where the TV versions are actually yellower than DYRL as I found out recently comparing a 1/48 VF-1J with a 1/48 Roy.
-
And they are an incredible PIA to find these days from my experience (and expensive).
-
Good question. Strangely, those were by far the hardest things to find. Let's just say I paid through the nose for them and took all stock I could find in the colors I wanted (eBay and here on this forum). You can still find original color launch arms on eBay, but at a premium price (to be fair, it is essentially the current going rate) and from a seller with dubious credentials. But if new is what you want; that's the option atm.
-
I lost my mind as well (although it's only because I'm doing 1/48 and waaaaay late to the game). All new: 1/48 (1) GBP-1S; (2) VF-1J (Hikaru); (3) GBP-1S (Wood Land) (4) 2x VF-1A (Wood Land); (5) GBP-1S (City Urban Camouflage); (6) VF-1S (Roy); (7) VF-1A Low Visibility; ( VF-1J Super Stealth; (9) Thunder Hammer Kit; (10) 2x VF-1S (Hikaru) + Fast Pack; 1/60 (11) VF-0A (Unknown Soldier); (12) QF-2200D-B Ghost Booster; Other (13) 7x Launch Arms

I love it, keep the pics a comin...
-
Solid haul. I happen to have both of those 1/48s coming in this month as well. Let's just say my wallet is beyond being able to feel pain According to anymoon, if you need to get a VF-0S, then that's the version to get. I guess they never got it right after all.
-
It's wrong but then again (I might be blaspheming) that is some nice work on that jetfire.
