I went ahead and pre-ordered a copy..

aren't some of those ebay sellers been proven a little dodgy previously? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MACROSS-7-VF-19P-1-60-PLANT-ZOLA-PATROL-UNIT-30TH-ANN-YAMATO-FIGURE-ES-AQ3555-/272526859107?hash=item3f73dddb63:g:JDcAAMXQDfdRxpj2

the 25 looks great so far! I've tried messing about with the lego builder but its not as easy as one would think.. which I found curious as I played with lego a great deal as a kid and thought that would carry over but it didn't really..
-
OMFG! Yes!!! geez I hope this happens sooner than later!

considering they sell left hand drive SS sedans stateside this would be an easy conversion for them. The Commodores platform was designed to be ambidextrous in that respect. So im sure the ute is no different. Go for it!
-
just curious.. why shorter wings? personally I prefer the longer wings of the P & Kai variants. they ain't that cheap nowadays.. about 34k at jungle.

yeah it sucks bus what sucks more is they have decided to retain the Commodore name for the all new imported model. I firmly believe the right thing to have done would have been retire the Commodore name. The new car just won't feel like a Commodore and I can't see it selling all that well either. I predict that it will last only one model cycle and GM will abandon the whole thing. And I can see the Holden name eventually disappearing too. Which it probably should rightfully so as it represented local production for a local product which will soon be evaporated into history. Oh well. Hey you could always import one into the USA?

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

that is a very nice looking model indeed! but my only gripe with it and others from Otto is they are a sealed design with no openings.. yes these are now hard to find and expensive. haha! funny enough I bought the same year model car in 1/18 Minichamps for my dad as he's a big Jenson fan too! 2012 was a pretty good year for Jense as he won a few races. -
I have a couple of the 30th anniversary stickers on my display cabinets which I'll have to upgrade to the 35th version sticker! Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
-
That looks really good! Just need to cover the logo near the cockpit with a uns kite and it'll be prefect! MWF member Scream Man also made a Skull custom from his 19P which a fellow member bought but its been out of site now for a while.. dang it I should've bought it off him!

RIP Miguel Ferrer (Bob Morton from Robocop)

2017 is already off to a bad start.. very sad news indeed. My favorite role he played was definitely Bob Morton in Robocop. RIP -
very nice work mate! they look fantastic! even if they don't transform.. now all you gotta do is create gerwalk and fighter fixed versions! be sure to post those photos when complete!

it is eh! yeah the Biante model isn't the most accurate model made but its good enough. There are a few minor details on it that aren't right and bug me a little (as with any diecast car) but overall its very close to my car which is what matters. And the RRP on them isn't exactly cheap either! they are usually $199! but I had a $50 store gift voucher which made it $149 (aud) which still kinda expensive but reasonable enough to buy. The fact it was my model of car also helped as if it were anything else then I wouldn't have bought it. I'll certainly be on the look out for you in my model car hunting travels and let you know if I find anything to match your car! Isn't there anything close that you could possibly mod to match your car? Surely there must be something? -
great poses guys!!

ahh yes.. the VF-11C.. again that's one that defies logic to its asking price. I only got one cos it exists as truthfully its down the order in my list of favorite Valkyries.. I guess the fact they demand great money does make it a bit more special and yes I paid stupid money for mine and I am glad I did but yeah why oh why is it worth so much!?!? mysteries of the universe material right there..
-
fan-bloody-tastic!!!
-
ins't that just crazy! 14k above the original price! and im sorry to say but I just don't see why the 30 deserves to be!? yeah its a good thing but so are most of if not all the other Valkyrie variants but why the heck do these things command sooo much money!? Even the 19Adv! yeah its good but it sure isn't 35k (on or about's and sometime more) good.. I'd more than happily pay 37k for a CF VF-1J and appreciate it for the rarity that it is but not for either of the aforementioned pair.. yeah I have 3x 30's.. sometimes not really sure why but im still glad I do.
-
yep I won't forget! ok hows this? when I win the lotto I'll give you your free VF-31J! hehehe!
-
very interesting indeed! perhaps an early 31 prototype which was much more closely based on the 30.. glad that didn't happen and the 31 became more of its own thing. Not there is anything really wrong with the 30, its just the 31 is considerably better!
-
this looks great! I want one now..
-
that looks pretty awesome!
-
I'd rather spend a bit more and buy another Yamato CF VF-1J..
