  1. Ace Toyz' was out since middle last year, and it felt like they were only available mostly in Asia. Sold out at most places but here's one from Hong Kong that shows in-stock: https://robotoybase.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=7024 Comparison between Bandai's and Ace Toyz:
  2. Very nice custom!
  3. Of all the Bayformer movies, original 2007 bots are the ones that make the most impression to me.
  4. Not sure when it started, but KC is having a spring sale. Many of their valks and figures are on heavy discount again. https://www.kitzconcept.com/index.php?route=product/special
  5. First time seeing it, thanks for posting this. It is a long interview, gonna split into several watches..
  6. He’s on a roll, this time with a VF-25F: A few pics from the link:
  7. In the same interview with Mr. Tsutomu Terashima of the HMR VF-19 Kai, here is the part where he discusses the Tiny Sessions YF-19 & VF-19 Kai (please use browser translation): https://hobby.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/interview/1577662-2.html
  8. https://hobby.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/interview/1577662.html Interview with Mr. Tsutomu Terashima, from Bandai Spirits Collectors Division (apparently also involved in the DX Chogokins) - please use browser translation. I find it interesting because there never was any interview with anyone within Bandai before for our Macross toys, at least not in recent memory. Couple of notes: 1. It will be matte, instead of glossy like the old HM. 2. New sound booster is likely to be made, but not actually confirmed yet.
  9. Love the way you did this pose. Based on what you are saying it came out really well! BTW, what's that blue ship on the shelf below, at the bottom right in the 2nd pic? Looks interesting..
  10. Got one at Nin-nin due to best price & flexible payment + shipping. Site was laggy as heck though, had to keep adding & re-adding to cart, but finally got through.
  11. It’s annkoromoti again:
  12. Hobby-Genki, wait for them to be live: https://hobby-genki.com/en/hi-metal-r/32230-hi-metal-r-vf-19-custom-fire-valkyrie-macross-7-4573102660855.html https://hobby-genki.com/en/bandai/32232-tiny-session-yf-19-isamu-alva-dyson-use-with-myung-fang-lone-4573102664204.html Ami-ami. Note the time is 5.30pm JST: https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail?gcode=FIGURE-168482
  13. Didn't order one, as I have no modelling skills.. but can't help feeling excited for folks who have ordered; it's been a most requested item for very long time. Congrats to @captain america for the good response.
  14. Yamato Priss & Motoslave metallic ver is the best toy to me, and I do wish they Yamato had updated the rest to metallic versions as well. They are not perfect, but those are the only figure + bike toy sets that were released, and so far Arcadia hasn't mentioned a peep about them. They come up very rarely over Mandarake, but somehow they do show up semi-occasionally at YAJ (that's how I completed my sets not that long ago). Perhaps check over at Suruga-ya JP as well as an odd set might pop up now and then. At this stage, it's safe to say the Figma ones that were previewed something like 5 years ago are dead.
  15. Congratulations & it is a very nice toy. I've not transformed it yet, but from reviews it is one of those rare toys where the judicious use of diecast doesn't seem to compromise sculpt, stability or strength of the joints. Perhaps move on to get the Proto-Garland as well...
  16. I just like rainbow canopies, its like a nice cherry on the icing..
  17. Luna Park’s always the earliest to list: https://www.lunapark.store/product-page/hi-metal-r-vf-19-kai-fire-valkyrie-japan-version Use code ‘APR2024’ for Yen 1000 off.
  18. Nice comparison pics on the relative sizes. Had no idea the Takatoku is that much bigger.
  19. Hopefully the tilting mechanism will be further tweaked. It was a bit scary when the bed suddenly jumped a few notches as it was lifting. But at least we know the Ingram is secured or pegged some way onto the bed rather than just being laid there, otherwise it would have been thrown off the table.
  20. CCS is really killing it with their releases and really stand out compared to competitors.. I'm thankful I don't have much affinity to the various IPs they have touched so far
  21. I did see a listing for a pre-owned Mechanic Edition at Amiami last week, listed at circa Yen 70k. It was sold the same day lol. Yeahh hopefully price will come down to more sane levels, like how the last DX Chogokin TN 2017 exclusive the VF-31J Kai did.
