  1. It looks awesome on the promo shots, but to get to those promo shots will require extensive gap-filling and sanding which pretty much is the opposite of the "fun 4-5 hour build" kits that we're used to from Bandai O_o The second build below shows a lot of gaps that are going to drive me nuts until they're Mr. Surfacer'ed and smoothed out.

    HI METAL LOVE THREAD

    Really? I like the fighter and gerwalk modes actually, all 3 modes are pretty damn good, especially for the size

    HI METAL LOVE THREAD

    Threadomancy!! Just got my 3 VF-1a's MISB with the correct color gear doors for retail from a collector in Japan. THese things are awesome!! O_O Already have a roy, hikky and max on the way too Such a shame this line is dead though... will need to scour for more hi-metal VF-1's to do some customs as these are the absolute perfect size for fun
  4. We already knew about this. I mentioned it a few pages back. That's why I'm gonna get magnets :0 I'll ship two of these from my private warehouse end of the month. If these don't satisfy me I've got my Hi-metals which will be my banday VF-1's If the 1/72's were like souped up hi-metals, these things would sell like hotcakes imho
  5. Dude... the antennae is awesome and not useless :0
  6. Yeah :0 I picked up 1 at 30000 yen earlier this year, my GF got another at retail, got the original window at NY for 150 and Otacute's 126 dollar VF-25. Woulda liked another one for customs though
  7. damnit the one day i goto sleep early...but then again do i really need a fifth?
  8. HIghly doubt it is, otherwise it'd be on the web exclusive pre-order section along with the 25G parts http://p-bandai.jp/tamashiiwebshouten/a0011/b0028/ I'm betting 1st or 2nd week July, but all the blogs I have found show no preorder start date.
  9. Selling.. yes. Making money? Recent events tell me otherwise.
  10. What...the...hell http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bandai-Macross-F-DX-Renewal-Chogokin-CF-VF-25A-Messiah-Valkyrie-action-figure-/321147904904?pt=Collectibles_Animation_Art&hash=item4ac5e82388
  11. Can't wait to panel line two of them and spraypaint my third grey
  12. Bandai can just scrap their R&D dept, buy the molds off of yammy and produce the right VF-1 at a cheaper price-point if they're thinking about a toy, though the Hi-metals rock imho
  13. DUDE look at the buy it now price somebody better jump on this one http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/174098171
  14. yf-29's have the pilot in the cockpit from the factory.
  15. better to not cancel otacute and find forum member in need of one. have them pay you with the undestanding that it's a 1-way trip for that sealed RVF-25.
  16. Moreover they shoulda had the guy that posed those H-metals and the renewals pose the 1/72 kit at the shows lol
  17. Ya know... I just got my hands on the hi-metal 1/100 1S and the 3 exclusive 1A's. How come Bandai couldn't have their playmodel team consult their Hi-metal toy team... the Hi-metals are pretty cool
  18. Well, We'l see what happens when the kits come in from HLJ in 2 weeks or so (have them on preorders EMS) Hopefully they are better in person than in all those photos, but we'll see. What I am worried about is the gerwalk, because gerwalk is hands down my favorite mode of just about any valk save the 19 series. Pretty much if there's no good A-stance these will be the last Bandai 1/72 vf-1's I buy.
  19. Welp... here we go again. HOnestly though I'm not worried about getting the 25A's though because I doubt many JP fans will be getting these in droves. Question is do I get 6 of them just like I have of the 171's?
  20. I think when I get my set I'm going to need to change the mounting point of the Fastpacks and move them forward. that's the only thing that bothers me big time at the moment. 0
  21. Looks like Roy is set for September already. I wonder if they'll milk it and put out Max and Kakizaki as well http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-3527
  22. Reading these threads i understand that getting valks cheaper is nice and all, but cancelling on preorders at invoice time or even after you've paid leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I think NY is going to do non-refundables from now on if this kind of abuse keeps up.
  23. well.. thank god I have an RVF sitting in my private warehouse at HLJ lol Still waiting to see how Otacute pans out though.
  24. It's already monday in Japan and Otacute hasn't sent any word or invoice. Ruh Roh O_O
