So, I purchased a VF-4G Roy from Amazon, the seller used japan post. I contacted the seller asking for tracking info, knowing full well it would take a while and got a link telling me about the restricted countries list. I didn’t see the good old US of A on there, but since I have no way to know, I hope it will get here in a month. Any known issues with this release? Scorched earth toys hasn’t released a review vid yet in which I might live vicariously while I ponder my life as a healthcare worker amidst the pandemic we have going on. twich

All Things Videogame Related: EXTREME VS!!
twich replied to Keith's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
For the FIghting Fantasy VII Remake, I was fairly impressed that there was no day 1 patch, that on my internet, would take a week to 10 days to download in order to make the game playable. I got to install it and look at the opening cinematic and that was it, but it didnt require a patch....pretty impressive in this day and age. Twich -
if you dont want a max/milia VF-1J with fast packs, you could go with the VF-1S Focker that is on ebay for $99.00 USD with free shipping If you do want the VF-1J with fast packs, I think that this is in line with what the ShowZStore was selling them for before they sold out. Twich

Yeah, I have the big hexagon base with the little square that comes off of it. So I guess that is a 1. It works well, and I didnt have to buy it, I already had it. But I wish that all the Bandai Hi-Metal R came with stands, instead of just select ones. Like the VF-2SS SAP would have really benefitted from having a stand and little arms for the 4 little Attack Bits, instead, unless you already own it, the cheapest solution is almost $100 USD, which is the price of the toy itself.

so, if it is the 15th anniversary of Frontier, that would be 2022, right? 2007 was frontier, right along with Gundam 00. I would like to see more Frontier and other valkyries, but not huge price gouging on the secondary market. Twich

Has anyone used, or thought to use the bandai 1/100 funpla stands for stands for their Hi-Metal R toys? I am using an old 1/100 scale stand for gundams, and it seems to work ok, and I also repurposed the two stands that Bandai included with the DX VF-19Advance valk set to hold up the boosters to use to hold up the Attack Bit drones for the Hi-Metal R VF-2SS SAP Nexx that I have as my only HMR so far. I ordered a VF-4G Focker, that will arrive whenever it gets sent over via Amazon. I cant wait to see this toy, as it looks pretty solid. Twich

unfortunately, it was. That seller now has almost 100 negative feedback in just a short span. You might be lucky, but I got a lego figure. Good Luck Twich Edit-so I had to file a claim with ebay, as the seller did not respond to my email after I received the wrong item. Ebay took about five minutes before they issued a full refund, so at least I get my money back......kinda wanted the VF-1J Max, though
-
that was from one specific ebay seller. Unless you purchased from that one ebay seller, you should be fine. Twich

oh no, it was a single lego mini-fig. It had a grimace and a beard. was not happy when I saw the package for it, was smaller than a wallet, definately not big enough for a 1/60 VF-1J Twich
-
bad news for me. My ebay purchased ended up being a scam, I got a lego figure instead of a 1/60 VF-1J Max with super packs. Had to start an ebay case for it. One of the most expensive lego figures I ever bought......kinda sucks. Twich

just watched that on youtube, I thought the homage that they paid was very awesome! Who knew what you could do with paperclips? Twich

So, I just looked at that link that was posted on the previous page and it looks like Valkyrie factory is doing a whole bunch of stuff. I cannot read it, but it looks like they are doing a KO VF-31J Kai with reaction missles, and it looks like they do KO YF-29 Super Parts. I would like to see what all of those things posted on the TaoBao site, Valkyrie Factory seem to be quite busy, wonder if it says a release date for the VF-31J Kai KO. Twich
-
Yeah, it looks like these might not get the premium Finish that their VF-1S Roy, VF-1S Hikaru and VF-1J Max/Milia did. I cannot read the text, does it say specifically that they are releasing the Non-PF version of Max and Milia? If they would be under $100 USD for non-fast pack, non-premium finish, I would definately want to get these, if the quality is good. My VF-1J Max is stuck in Indiana, hope it will get to me this week or Monday of next week so I can see how quality these things are. Twich
-
So, are there any other reviews/pictures of the Kitzconcept 1/72 VF-1J Hikaru/Rick Hunter? Twich
-
That is the only VF-31 that I have and I love it. The black is just stunning and to dichotomy of color is truly impressive. Twich
-
I agree the SV-262 is a thing of beauty. How did you shine up the gold, my copy seems to have faded to a coppery color now in hue. Transforming it has added to my grey hair collection and is the only valk toy that I am afraid to try to transform again. Twich
-
Bots & Bits, I enjoyed your reviews of the Valkyrie Factory VF-1's, hope you can continue with the others that they have already put out along with future releases, whatever those may be. Twich

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
twich replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
VF-27, YF-29, SV-262, and even VF-31. The Special arm cannon on the YF-19 might have some anti-capital capability. VB-6 definately shows on screen anti-capital ship capability Twich -
I am wanting to adopt a wait and see approach. If they do manage to produce something even if it were a 1/60 scale that is even 80% as good as the official Bandai vf-31’s then I say that would be a good thing at the $160 price range. The prototype looked really good (if it was the prototype). So I am hopeful. The reviews of the KO 1/60 vf-1 toys is promising and they have the tampo printing down. I will know first hand when my vf-1j max gets here from China. twich

Now, I have recently seen a VF-31F that was around $180 or so on either ebay or amazon, but that is one I already have, so I did not look very hard at it. Twich
-
No, not talking of the bandai ones. I am talking of the Valkyrie Factory VF-31J that they have been advertising/teasing. This is on "pre-order" on ebay right now for $160 with shipping, bu with no definitive release date or more info. Twich
-
I honestly would like to see Valkyrie Factory try a good ol' VF-1J Hikaru. They already have Max and Millia, just a simple repaint of an existing mold for them. We dont have a Premium Finish VF-1J Hikaru, as far as I know. Pleave give us weird and interesting colors...my thoughts remind me of the JOON bootlegs that came in all green, orange, purple...basically, taste the rainbow! Imagine that with Premium Finish level Tampo markings......that would be some cool stuff I have not really heard any more about the VF-31J, but even if it is going for $160 USD, that is a significant discount, granted that it is a quality product than the official Bandai release that is going for $330-$380 USD on secondary market.

The seller is shifen187

So, I dont know if this was just a special for me, or if this seller on ebay did it for everyone, but I just got a 30% discount on a Valkyrie Factory 1/60 VF-1J Max with Fast Pack set for 87.50 plus tax with free shipping. It was originally $125.00 USD, but with the discount......Now, I know this is a KO, but a premium finish KO that based on the review that was posted a few posts ago, it is well worth the price, as long as the quality lasts. This might be something I get for my 11 year old, got him a V1 1/60 Yamato that the plastic crumbled apart and disintergrated and he is left with some plastic pieces that dont even form a jet....big disappointment.

I just have the movie messer/hayate VF-31F with no armor/no super and no lil draken accessories. Twich
