  1. All it takes is one valk... then, well you know why people hang out here dont you? we call it "valkaholics"
  2. still debating whether or not to get this at the preorder price or 2nd-ary market...not really a fan of M-Frontier series (stopped at 2nd episode) and skipped to the 2 movies instead... I guess I will wait since I dont really feel the urge to get one as I do for the other valks from M series that I actually watched (minus flashy M7 valks - well, except 17s/d)... Still have 1-2 valk designs that I really wanted to catch up, so I'll grab those first and will revisit this valk after its April/May release..
  3. yes! thats the one. Youre always one step ahead of people's suggestions. And you'll need multiples!
  4. I hope they'll cost around, or at least slightly higher than the de-lorean machine...that set was $35 a pop with 2 mini figs...guessing around $50-60-ish.. EDIT : having a darth vader/storm trooper/Jack Sparrow/Tonto/Yoda minifig in the cockpit would be fun!
  5. Haha, you'll need to add Bandai's VF-1S Joke Machine and Bandai's 1/100 VF-1S Hi-metal to that list then.. Especially the JM, its a georgeouse small piece of toy for an early 80's production. Heck you'll need a squadron of em!
  6. Boosters looking great on the 22s! Is there any particular reason youre keeping the v1 VF-1S when you have the v2?
  7. haha...I had a feeling the translation was kinda iffy...thanks for the explanations!
  8. As Mr K said about the meeting : そうですよね~。 改めて考えると「マクロスメカ」を商品にしている所って、弊社とバンダイさんくらいだものね~。(他に有ったらごめん) 仲よくしないと…。 と思うのです。 Google Translation : - That's right. I place you have a product to "Macross mecha", ne ~ what I much Bandai-san and our company to think again. (I'm sorry When I met other) Do not get along well .... I think with.
  9. theyre 1/48's. no double jointed elbows
  10. not too sure about re-issuing the exact mold. I remembered Mr K posted a pic of Bandai's VF-171 on his tweeter and said there was a meeting with Bandai reps here, but IIRC, the meeting turned sour (based on google translation). Maybe the translation was wrong, so not too sure about that. But from the whole thing, one thing is for sure : Mr K thinks Yamato's design of the 17 can be improved. Maybe theyre working on a 17 renewal as we speak, but who knows?
  11. Congrats! Did you get that from a mandarake physical store? There's a Q-rhea for pretty cheap from the same branch you bought the Q-rau..could bring shipping down per item combined, that is, if youre looking for a Rhea..
  12. got a delorean machine around black friday last year and would definitely be all over a VF-1
  13. OK, time for this :
  14. yeah, especially when built : http://experten.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2012/07/vf-5000g-17a2.html if bandai ever picks up these kits to be made into toys, gonna have to grab em little suckers! pretty sure they have M7 license but prolly gonna have to obtain that obsecure VF-3000 license from whatever series/game its from
  15. Aaarr matey! Head sculpt looking jolly good rogers!
  16. was browsing around and saw their VF-3000...pretty clean and neat! : http://experten.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2010/06/254-94f3.html
  17. Ditto! Arcade style Max & Miriya clear 1A's would be great..but did bandai's clear VF-25 sold well? I was away from the board/Macross that time...
  18. Sit, destroid sit!
  19. HLJ gives you the exact shipping charges before placing orders while Amiami & Mandarake will quote you shipping after you place the order, but if you do not agree to their shipping rates you can either : (1) Just pay to avoid the hassle or (2) cancel the order but will be banned in the future if you cancel too many orders.
  20. based on the translation, its a 20-unit limited production button-pins... アルカディアブースにて「VF-1S ロイ・フォッカースペシャル」をお買い上げ頂きますとプレゼントしちゃいます!20個限定なので是非ご検討下さいませー! Google Translate : "You raffling when I purchase the "VF-1S Roy Focker Special" at Arcadia booth! Over, please consider us because the 20-limited"
  21. That NY price is before shipping. Price on ebay is with shipping, but used. And I thought youre paying close to $300 per valk, as you mentioned youre paying $600 for the 29 & 25F.
  22. Ok, who won the Q-rau max for 4k Yen ($38) just now?
  23. I do hope the "gift horse" is indeed a gift, and not a way for them to charge more...
  24. wow, thats a hefty sum for 2 valks. Or if you dont mind used, I can point you to a used renewal VF-25 currently on ebay for $180++ (this is not my listing, just happen to come across): http://www.ebay.com/itm/VF-25F-MESSIAH-VALKYRIE-GE-54-Renewal-ver-Macross-F-Bandai-DX-Chogokin-Used-/151220055867?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item23356aef3b
  25. from the looks of it, theyre all color-molded, which is nice and almost a toy! seems like the kits are going for $200 a pop..
