Oh wow.. BBTS has the listing already, and that should be the quickest for any WWM valk so far.

Nice! This being a CharaWorks 1/144?

I never actually considered Bandai doing Destroids in a new scale, but if they start doing so, I reckon there'll be some sort of mutiny going around in these boards. Folks have been waiting forever for the HMR Tomahawk & Spartan that Bandai have repeatedly gaslit us with lol. Might I suggest you to pick up the HMR Monster? Even if it doesn't fit the DX scale, it is a very, very good toy in its own right.

The good thing about Amiami's current PO times and method, is that they parcel it out in lots. The PO will re-open every 10 minutes or so in that hour's duration. So check back often. That's great to hear.

Hahah just put some laser pointers in @grogall Yamato did show off a 1/60 Monster prototype many moons ago. Lemme try to search the pic.. Ok here it is: At that scale its already humongous; compared to the cut-off 1/60 VF-1S on the right. At 1/48 it probably needs a dining table display lol. For the other destroids, the only 1/48 I know is the recent Moscato 1/48 Tomahawk kit:

Nin-nin's pricing is a bit like NY right? They sell some units at a lower price initially, then it progressively goes up.. I've never had anything delivered from Nin-nin before, only a pending HMR VF-0A PO. Hopefully all turns out well.

Though I've never bought from Yoyakunow, they appear reliable based on others' experiences. The one that is NY 2.0 should be Moehime. I'll never PO anything there lol. Will only buy in-stock items from them at most.

Hobby Genki seems to have pulled a bit of scummy move by raising the price when it went live. It was originally prelisted at Yen 38.5k, and then it went straight to Yen 39,750 lol.. I couldn't even find the link to begin haha.. I'm sure there must be some tricks

CDJ has joined Hobby Search as the 2 PO unicorns.

Gone at HLJ, Hobby Genki, CDJapan, Hobby Search, AE.. Waiting for Nin-nin to go live..

No luck this time.. cartjacked everywhere haha Edit: Re-opened at HLJ and got one!

You mean Hikaru's red stand? That comes bundled with Kakizaki's 1A. Hikaru's 1J is the one with the recent Armored release.

If Elvis Draken comes out, I'll pass him the guitar from the 1/8 Megahouse Basara figure.

PO cancelled

Amiami PO only opening on the following day, in what has become their usual practice now.

I think for Yamato’s, that circled part can be pushed in so it looks more like the line art. Will the DX have that ability? In the line art though, Kawamori appear to have scribbled some comments on that area. I wonder what he was saying.. For the sites you posted, the PO won’t be up today. Usually POs of WWM items outside Japan will start anything 1-2 weeks from Japan PO date.

Yup the delimiter mode.. I guess it steers by the thrust vectoring without the stabilizers.

https://tamashiiweb.com/item/14740/?wovn=en The Tamashii Web link has been updated with a few new pics that weren't there before:

All your panel lined and weathered YF-30s look amazing and they pop! Yellowing aside, the 30 is how a colour-on-white based scheme should be. Pretty much well thought out colour placements, akin to the 262.

Possible stage from upcoming Macross Shooting Insight? lol.. Too bad the VF-11B was never made in this scale, else would have included it here..

This seems to be trending a bit. It is amazing how after so many years, someone recently reinvented the playstyle on the original NES controller, started off a resurgence & revolution to original Tetris, culminating in beating the impossible. The speeds are crazy!

Great to know many copies haven't yellowed. If anything, the pics makes me wish even more Bandai will re-issue this.

I never transformed a 21/22 from Battroid back to Fighter yet, so that is cool to know that the seat auto-rotates back. It got me thinking more on what other little nice-to-have stuff like this that makes Yamcadia valks that much better: v2 VF-1: The removable nose with adaptor to support it being carried on another VF's arm. VF-11: The cockpit escape module. VF-0S/A: Rotating seat VF-19: Rotating seat plus egress hatch in battroid YF-19: The anti-glare area in front of cockpit that pivots down to support the front hinged cockpit opening. SV-51: Perhaps the telescopic head gimmick? Can't think of any for the VF-4 though, but that's not to say the toy is anything less compared to others. So hopefully, Arcadia does something similar for the upcoming VF-5000.
