Those white pieces were metal on the Yamato version too....it didnt help....hopefully Arcadia learned from the Yamato and are making some adjustments to make it more tight/lock together better. Otherwise it was a unique and awesome toy. Twich

Looking back a few pages on this thread, the Arcadia version looks just like the Yamato version ( I had the Cannon Fodder version). Hope the wings dont flop and the vertical stabilizers dont droop like they did on the Yamato Twich

that is one of the points that I am using to try to convince my wife that I need to buy a SV-262. She has looked at the Macross Delta mecha and the only designs that she likes is the SV-262Hs, particularly the GERWALK mode. I am all about the fighter and the battroid modes, but if it helps me get the Valk, then I like GERWALK too! It stinks when you have a $5000 trip that your wife and two of your kids are going in in September for TaeKwonDo nationals in September in Florida( it doesnt stink, I am very excited for my kids to go and compete!), but it makes money tight Twich

So, any word that this Valkyrie will see more releases? Since the Macross Delta movie and word of another, a single release seems disappointing. I love the unique nature of this design and hope that I can convince my wife to let me get one soon, if still available at reasonable prices. Twich

This maybe a silly question, but to play Macross 30, do you need to have a modded PS3? Or would someone with a US PS3 be able to play the game, like on my PS Vita, I am able to play the Macross Delta game. Thank You. Twich

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!

Also, on the VF-2SS SAP, the SAP doesn’t provide any additional boosters, just fuel and weapons and of course, armor. Is that correct? When adding it up, this Valkyrie has a fair amount of thrust. Pretty cool. twich -

Thank you for providing that information for me. That is much more than I knew before today! twich -
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
twich replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
My most recent acquisition was the Bandai Hi Metal R VF-2SS Nexx use. It is a marvel of a mecha and I just wish that it was not 1/100 scale, but instead 1/60 scale. The level of detail is absolutely amazing to me. Twich -
Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
twich replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
I know that it is a rather obscure anime that several people despise and is not considered official, but I would really enjoy it if someone could find or reasonably produce some specifications of the Macross 2: Lovers again Valkyries. Information on the engine power, weaponry and the like of the VF-2SS SAP and the VF-2JA and the Metal Siren that competes with the completeness of information that we have for other Macross variable fighters would be wonderful. If such a website exists, could someone direct me to it? Thank You! I wish that I had the money to purchase the Bandai DX SV-262 and a VF-31 toy, but I had to settle for the much less expensive Bandai Hi-Metal R VF-2SS Nexx, which has rekindled my desire to know more about the design and specifications. Thank You, Twich -
Question, I have a Toynami Robotech Veritech Super Poseable figure VF-1S, sealed in the original packaging, what makes this different is that it is one of the ones that were mispainted by Toynami. The black stripe in chest is not painted in the middle. I remember these being rare, so.....how much is it worth? Thank You

Will the iron blooded orphan kits be getting the Master Grade treatment? I have seen the 1/100 scale, and HG 1/144 and that new one that has the metal frame and pearl/metal finish parts that is in 1/100 scale. Would also love to see the Gundam Barbatos in Perfect Grade! Twich

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
twich replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Thank You! I believe I will steer clear of the regular GFF, unless I am looking for a shelf queen! Now does anyone know the cheapest/best price on one of these? Thank You Twich -
Sorry, didn't know this was the anime girl with small waist and obligatory huge rack thread. But I enjoyed what I saw, does that make me bad? LOL! Thank You anime52k8, I appreciate your assessment of the figure in question (regular GFF)! Twich

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
twich replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
In what way is it frustrating? What scale is it in? I'm sorry, I'm really not trying to be a bother. I would really like to get the GFF Metal Composite, but the price is pretty steep. Thank You Twich -
Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
twich replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I have a question. For the GFF Metal Composite #1005 A1/C1 (bst), where can I got to get the best price for this? The best I have found is around $250 from Amazon. Also, is the regular GFF #0017 A1/C1 (bst) the same size? Just as good without the die cast, or not worth the $80 I have found them for? I would really appreciate some help better understanding the differences on what looks like a totally awesome figure! Thanks! Twich -
I would like to ask a question of the experts here. I am interested in the Bandai Gundam Fix Figuartion Metal Composite #1005 Zeta Plus A1/C1 Hummingbird (bst) and the Gundam Fix Figuration #0017 Zeta Plus A1/C1 Hummingbird (bst). I know that the GFF Metal Composite is 1/100 scale, and I have watched a video review from CollectionDX, but what I would really like to know is what is the difference between the two and what is the quality of the figures? I really only have a small budget for my "extra toys" and I love the look of the design, but will the non-metal composite figure be so far inferior to the metal composite figure? I would like to have both, realistically, but want to know the quality. Please let me know. thanks! Twich

Hello, Since this is a thread about Gunpla, I thought I would post a few pictures of my collection. I know that the photos are not the best quality, but I particularly like my PG Wing Gundam that my wife panel lined for me. I too have difficulty getting the RG kits to stand, especially the Gundam Strije Aile Pack. Twich

Hey, First time posting here in the gundam section. I have a question about both the GFF Metal Composite #1005 Zeta Plus A1/C1 Hummingbird (bst) and the GFF #0017 Zeta Plus A1/C1 Hummingbird (bst). What are the major differences? I know the metal composite is 1/100 scale and I have seen the anymoon video review on it. But is the cheaper non-metal composite version just as good. I have so little to spend on toys per year, I want to get the best bang for my buck, so to speak. Thank You! Twich

It looks like the SAP gets plugged into those tabs on the top of the chest piece, perhaps this is why the did not change after fan feedback that was done by fellow MWers. I kinda like the design, but will have to wait how good the pre order discount will be. Twich

Part is broken into many little plastic shards, centered around the connection points were the rod connects the nose one to the little part that connects it to the rest of the plane
-
Yeah, just like on my DX YF-25 and DX YF-29, which I had no problem with. I think, as you say, I got a bad copy. Twich
-
I am referring to the actual plastic connector that attaches the nose one to the rest of the plane, when I attempted to transform for the first time a week after getting it, the nose one just came off in my hand with a good sized chunk of plastic that surrounded the little pin connecting it to the rest of the mecha. Makes it real disappointing, as I am afraid to transform to battroid now, even though I attempted repair with gorilla glue. So my super VF-27y stays in fighter mode...... Twich
-
My attachment for the nose cone came with crumbling plastic too, so I wonder if QC issue? Do the green ones have this issue? Thanks Twich
-
Looking at the picture of the VF-31, it appears to have fold quartz on the fuselage in fighter, on either side of the head turret. Didn't someone say that there was no more fold Quartz? Maybe I'm wrong, but why is it on the Valkyrie? Twich

I think the color in the furthest back is the color of a VF-27 Twich
