if NY does offer them cheaper than HLJ and if I can secure two of them (do NY usually have a limit on pre-orders?) and maybe I'll cancel my HLJ order.. maybe..
-
ah yes indeed! my father briefly owned one back in the early 70's. Its funny we were talking about that car when I visited him in the UK last year. He pretty much said the very same thing.. it looked faster than it actually was! Though I can't remember if he had the smaller or larger engine in his..

thanks for the insight dero! We were just watching and reading a few reviews about the kits and they do mention several times how brittle and breakable they actually are.. My son doesn't seem to impressed by the kit anymore.. It would still cost about $100 shipped to Australia (no thanks to the ever weakening dollar) which is less than one third the price of buying a DX version from NY but even as cheap as they are I don't believe its worth it. Besides its really only as cheap as it is due to the fact you have to build and detail it yourself or it would be double the price and then definitely not worth it. So I think we'll give the whole idea a miss.

not that my son wants to re-start collecting Valkyries or anything but he does like the VF-31J and as a cost alternative he was looking at the 1/72 transformable kits.. which are relatively dirt cheap compared to a full on DX machine (4k yen on Mandarake) but are they any good? They need to be assembled which im happy to help him with but no painting required yes? and apply stickers.. what you reckon? worth it for the price or are they junk..

im very curious as to the discount NY will offer on the 31F as they did with the 31J..

After some further consideration I decided to cancel my Spartan order. Yeah it looks alright but it doesn't quite get me excited and its not a line I have any intention continuing collecting. The Monster is the exception due to its sheer size and the fact I've always wanted one but that's where it will stop.
-
unless the quantity figure doesn't refresh fast enough to keep up with the actual orders going through making the whole ordering process a little misleading.

cart jacking I think.. I got the same message
-
thanks for the HLJ link! just got one!
-

-

-

has there been a thread started for this movie already? Apologies if there is but I tried searching for it but failed to find anything so mods please delete or lock if necessary.. going to watch this over the weekend. Looks pretty good and im a big Jennifer Lawrence fan so im definitely looking forward to seeing it!

six is a lot of the one Valkyrie I know but I am still buzzing from excitement from seeing the 31A so yes six is a definitely possibility indeed! but we'll see what happens later after I've cooled down a bit.. having three may suffice but then again I might even need nine!! three in each mode! but that's just a bit crazy!
