  1. You have to do the math. They'll tell you the discount when you checkout. You can't get 10% off of shipping. Some really good deals to take advantage of. If I had any money... Randy
  2. I already preordered mine. Though I don't know if I'll have the Q-Rau when I get mine. Randy
  3. I noticed that before. It's pretty neat the little English things they put in here and there. Randy
  4. That's so awesome! I thought it was real. Keep up the great work! Randy
  5. Most likely right. Like I said, I'll have to dig it out. I might call my friend and ask him to check his too, as he said the same thing. I believe his is at his parents house. Randy
  6. Really? I could have sworn it was diecast. I'm not sure where mine is at the moment, but I do still have it. It's really beat. I was talking to a friend of mine, and he was saying the same thing about the nosecone being diecast. This is interesting...I'll have to go and find it to make sure. Randy
  7. That makes me want to go and get the Q-Rau more than ever now. I know I really like the look of those figures. I hope they aren't hard to get. Randy
  8. Hey guys, I have all the Bandai Reissues, and I've noticed that my Jetfire has a diecast nosecone while all the Reissues have plastic. Now my question is, did the Takatoku and Bandai originals have a diecast nosecone or plastic? I remember that page from years ago comparing the original Hikaru VF-1J to the Reissue, but I don't remember them mentioning any difference in diecast content. So is Jetfire the exception? Thanks. I didn't see any posts about this. Probably too old of a question. Randy
  9. My Max and Millia VF-1Js get sent out this week! I finally got myself a Fast Pack for my 1/48th VF-1S Roy this past weekend! I'm going crazy for Valkyries! I just can't get enough of the 1/48th with the Fast Packs. I'm just glad I got those TV hands for my Roy so he doesn't look silly next to the M&M Valks with those flimsy hands. Randy
  10. Man that's cool! Those pics really make me want that VF-1S and Minmay too! Randy
  11. I want a review please! And more pics! Thanks! Randy
  12. Really Great Custom. I'm amazed at the work done. Randy
  13. Absolutely Gorgeous! Man, I can't believe the work you must have put into that to get it look so nice. Excellent job! Randy
  14. I got just the VF-1S Roy so far, but I'm getting this VF-1J, the Millia type, and hopefully the Hikaru type too. It's too bad that people say there are quite a few quality control issues with this figure. I hope mine is satisfactory at the least. Randy
  15. Up until recently I thought Max had a blueish gray helmet and Kakizaki had dark blue. Then I saw a model of Kakizaki's VF-1 I was surprised it had green stripes. The coloration is hard to tell on them due to their lack of appearances in the movie. Though Max is blue and Kakizaki is green. That's the way it's suppossed to be. Even though in that scene Max looks like gray/purple and Kakizaki blue. It all has to do with lighting. Max's Valkyrie also looks tan instead of white/gray. The lighting changes the colors. Randy
  16. That's great 柿崎速雄! I love it. I'm surprised that Yamato hasn't done this yet. I'm really glad you did the TV version too. I bet if Yamato does this it will be the Movie version. Though you hardly ever see them in the Movie. I'm also glad you chose green for the pilot's suit. I always felt that was more appropriate than the red versions we sometimes saw (too similiar to Hikaru). Keep up the great work! Randy
  17. That is one sweet custom! Maybe the best Valkyrie custom I've ever seen. Really excellent job with the paint job (nice touch on the visor) and decals. I'd buy that if Yamato massed produced it! Which is saying a lot because I never have $130 to $200 to spend on 1/48th Valks! Randy
  18. Very Nice picks Hayao Kakizaki! Though does it actually come with those movie hands? It still has the TV hands like in the package pic right? Thanks. Randy
  19. Awesome work! I hope Yamato releases this (with appropriate mold changes). That's one sweet custom! Keep up the great work! Randy
  20. That is one sweet custom! I love the look of the head and of the Fighter mode. Randy
  21. That is one sweet looking Valk! I'll be getting mine from NCS with the Millia version when it comes out. I got it on preorder for $150 each! Randy
  22. WOW! I just saw this. With it not being in the Toys forum I'm surprised I ever noticed. I can't believe that they're actually releasing DYRL figures under the Robotech license. It's almost as weird as Transformers releasing toys called Gobots. And they're using the Japanese names too. Well maybe we'll finally get a Region 1 release of DYRL on DVD. Maybe they'll even do a good dub of it too, not that I would watch the dub over the sub. Randy
  23. Looks very nice to me. But I only saw the first OAV of M0. And that was almost a year ago now. It would be nice if this was in scale with some other valks, but... Randy
  24. I always thought this scene was very traumatic and cool. I was very shocked when I first saw it (I watched it before I had seen the episode of the TV series were Kakizaki died). It was very quick and brutal. While Kakizaki was making joke. I always thought it was neat that Max became Skull Leader in the Movie. Between his leading the squad of Valkyries in that scene and his VF-1S (Yamato Release This!) it became fairly obvious. Also he had mad pilot skills. Randy
  25. That's Awesome! Nothing like owning an original. I personally will be satisfied with the reissue, but the original is a piece of nostalga. Nothing beats the original boxes! I remember staring at all those pictures on the Valkyrie Factory so many years ago, hoping some day that I could afford those valks. Now I got most of them (I have all the reissues), so in a way a dream has come true for me too. You have a great find there my friend. Randy
