Gahhhhh she finally arrived not more than 30 minutes ago! And im glad to report nothing broken or missing! I was starting to freak out a little especially after a few people received theirs with damage.. Well anyways.. I fitted her up with a simple weapons load out and straight up on display! Not going to attempt a transformation at this stage, just happy that she's finally in my possession! And looking sexy as along side her sisters! I must say the new design is so much more sleek & refined looking than the earlier YF-19 design.. not that I didn't notice that in all the pics previously posted. Seems to lock up and hold her shape pretty well compared to the older Yamato versions but still feels a little flimsy and fiddly to handle.

holy crap! that's pathetic! I'd be so pissed! Are they using some kind of brittle plastic or what? I saw someone else had a piece of the wing broken completely off theirs!? I have to admit im a little nervous about mine as its still in transit..

2 new Variable Fighter Master File books: VF-22 and VF-1 Squadrons
spanner replied to cool8or's topic in Collectors
I already picked up the VF-1 Squadrons book from HLJ.. is quite a nice little book! Shame I cant read a word of Japanese.. at least there are plenty of juicy Valkyrie porn pics! -
so when can we buy!?!?
-
Just got my shipping notice from HLJ today!!! gahhh! the wait is just killing me!
-
Your stands are amazing! I would definitely be interested in buying a few for sure! I did go through this thread but just in case I missed any comment you might have made regarding the possibility of making these available for purchase in the future.. What is your outlook on that possibility at this stage of development?
-
Oh! please be sure to post a few pics after you've completed the panel lines! I was thinking of doing the same with mine when it arrives.. I have a "double nuts" which has been panel lined and it looks great!
-
Wooo!!! HLJ took payment from my paypal! Sweeeeeeet!!!
-
you lucky b@#$%&*!!!
-
Its not the shipping costs that bother me so much, its the fact they have no idea when they are getting their stock and or when they will be shipping the YF out.. I was under the impression that it might have been a faster option to buy out of Japan instead.. I have had a pre-order cancelled by HKC in the past as they had over allocated.. HLJ still says they have stock.. I just don't want to miss out or have to pay a higher re-sale price later on..
-
although I pre-ordered my YF-19 through HK Collectibles, (which I kinda regret now) do you think it would be safe enough to just buy one from HLJ and cancel my pre-order with HKC? I emailed them to ask when they will be shipping them and they have no clue as to when they will be receiving stock which is a little disheartening to hear..
-
ahhh no way! You really threw out all of them!? I have about 30 I think & got all the boxes! Gotta be worth something in the future surely!
-
OMG!!! It's getting so close I can almost smell its plastically goodness!! Seeing that vacant space in my display cabinet for it is starting to drive me bonkers! Gahhh hurry up already and release it!!
-
hehe! no second thoughts here.. I just want it NOW Arcadia!!! I am an extremely impatient person at the best of times..
-
is there supposed to be a specific date for the actual release of the YF-19?? Or just some time in April..? The wait if is like running a razor blade over my foresk..
-
I've had both but recently let my VT-1 go but even regardless of cost I'd take the VF-1D any day of the week. I'll only replace the VT-1 if Arcadia release an updated version in the future..

Pre-ordered me a Arcadia VF-19 a while back.. got a Yamato 1/60 v2 VF-1S Hikaru Ichijo on its way ($150 shipped) and a Yamato 1/60 VF-19P Planet Zola Patrols Color (price unknown, gift from GF) -
I'd buy that for multiple dollars!!

Bandai 1/72 fully transform able VF-1 plastic kit for Macross 30th Ann
spanner replied to Vi-RS's topic in Model kits
my word this thing looks positively awful! Its proportions don't look right at all and some of its articulation just aren't right either!? Honestly why are they even bothering?? Definitely going to give this one a miss.. -
This is great!!

Hehe! I ended up with three of the same TV Kakizaki as a result of cheap price and an order stuff up from maximabuy. But yeah love the color scheme of them! Its cool to have three as I can display them each in a different mode!

Here's my current Macross display setup. Not perfectly ideal as I have pretty much run out of room especially with another Valk and two female characters on their way.. Its an Ikea cabinet which is ok I guess (was cheap) but there's a 5mm gap all the way around the door which allows a little too much dust in for my liking making monthly de-dusting necessary. I was thinking of either getting another of the same cabinet or spending a lot more on a much larger cabinet. But I gotta keep costs under control as you can imagine.. I place a little battery powered LED light pack on the very top which adds a nice lighting effect at night. I would like to wire in some small LED's on the upper corners of each level but not knowing if I'll keep this setup im a little hesitant spending any money on it.. Oh yeah there was a crappy looking flower pattern on the very bottom which I cut to size a piece of composite panel from work, sprayed it black and stuck down a Macross 30th anniversary sticker from ebay. I think it looks kinda cool!
