    my gosh. whatever you do, do not use any random super, glue esp this product : http://www.homedepot.com/p/Loctite-Plastics-Bonding-System-681925/100371829 I was lucky to have been able to use it for a short while. Then the front plastic funnel started to melt because of the glue! (doesnt make sense because it was supposed to *contain* the glue from flowing out!) pretty sure there are a lot of "plastics-glue" experts here (read it in some threads but cant remember). from what I read, for ABS plastic (if the renewal are ABS) its better to use acetone-based glue as it will melt the two surfaces for bonding.

    Yes they all come with super parts as standard accessories.

    or it *could've been* ! issues plagueing the Ivanov first release made buyers to hold off from buying the toy. IIRC, frosty canopy (mine too), wrong wing joints (not on mine)... the worse part is, in my case (and some others too) the upper hips are cracked (bought it cheap, so buyer's remorse wasnt in full throttle). The upper hips are comprised of 3 different sections, lowest on my left cracked & middle of my right cracked. From what I saw, the plastics are too thin and brittle on these parts, and the gerwalk-joint locking mechanism that pushes against the inner wall furhter stresses the plastic walls. It is almost certain that the walls will crack if mishandled (note : previous owner). Luckily I did similar fix on a VF-22 Gamlin, so nothing drabs of ABS plastic cement cant fix! Seems to be holding up pretty well, but almost 4-5 hours out the window to do the fixing...jeeze. *end of rant*

    Pretty sure yours gonna be fine. Been purchasing from them for a while now .. vf-1, vf-11, vf-22, yf-19, destroids, and *sacrificial* gundams that I purchased to knock down shipping by selling em off ebay.. so far items have been in really2 great conditions *knock on wood*

    item is brand new! no crease on the flaps..prolly someone was hoarding these and sold one at a mandarake without opening it. its a great add on for the VF-1 indeed!

    Saw that when it was sold out...still at the mall in the wee hours with wife for black friday shopping..yawn Im tired. Congrats on the fast packs! Mine is on da way
  17. aaajin
    if only Bandai could acquire the VF-X/VF-X2 licenses, then maybe they can make use of their existing molds to milk other variants for the 19 (19A) & Koenig monster...then venture into the 11B, 17, 22, VA-3 bomber etc2....oh my

    "One does not simply tread on mandarake with limited Nihon vocabs" J/k I think I just typed in macross or yamato in japanese characters.

  20. aaajin
    I think its just a mispell...
  21. aaajin
    yep I noe..there's another weathered one, sitting on the shelf, not selling at 10k *cheaper* on manda..
  22. aaajin
    speaking of fast packs, these were sold : http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1900723.html while there is another one NOT selling at 10k Yen cheaper...oh well
  23. aaajin
    I dont know how in the hell did I score that too. Wasnt even looking for anything, just randomly checking the site and boom, it was there. Same thing with the sv-51 from Jungle last week. Sorry man, wasnt my intention to valk-block. Just pure luck.

    from jenius's blog : http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=3724 and another member's (forgot who!) : http://www.collectiondx.com/toy_review/macross_robotech/vf_19_blazer_valkyrie If youre getting a 19 hi metal, maybe the blue 19S would be a better choice for its extra features (see reviews)
