Actually, do make it a Tamashii exclusive. Those I can get without dealing with the usual pre-order madness and things selling out in less than 5 minutes.
-
Yeah, though it looks like it needs to be always deployed.
-
Well, this fixes my 2 biggest complaints about the Super VF-31: needs more missiles, arms aren't bulky enough. (Yeah, the arms are still spindly, but the guns and such make the outline look bulkier)
-
You've already grasped the most important thing about buying from NY, don't have them do the currency conversion. Their exchange rate right now is $1=100yen.
-
That's probably why the discounts, get the remaining stock out the door before the premium finish ones hit.
-
The posting for Mirage's supers on the Tamashii web site says it includes the missiles.

YJA=Yahoo Japan Auctions
-
If I hadn't already bought one, I may have as well.
-
FYI, the one coming out in June for YEN 41,000 is not a VF-1S. It's a VF-0s, from Macross Zero. It's a bit larger and slightly different design.
-
Being on the west coast helps, but with the web monitor I can usually pick things up off HLJ when someone else cancels. As Hobby Search doesn't like letting people cancel, less luck there aside from the initial pre-order rush and at release.
-
I've got a web monitor plugin running, scanning various searches for changes and then emailing me. Works pretty well, and definitely gets faster results than their email.
-
Between that, the HM VF-1S, and the Macross Quarter that showed up on Mandarake for ¥8,000 my wallet is stinging from the impulse buys a bit.
-
I got one, I'm skipping the PF version of the VF-1Js, but I'm in for the SDF-1 and VF-0S. I'm not a huge fan of the solid red -1J, but for like $160 shipped I'll bite.
-
Hobby Search put the basic version on sale for ¥25,760. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10482662

Hobby Search just put Milia on sale: ¥13,080. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10462775

The one from Arcadia you linked is the VF-0S Premium, it's really costly. Try these: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10491256 http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10462775 Alternatively There's the Bandai 1/100 scale HMR line, which is quite a bit cheaper. https://hlj.com/product/BANN22566 https://hlj.com/product/BANN19292 [edit] Also there's Arcadia and Yamato and Bandai used VF-1s available which are other versions.
-
Try the new Action base 4 and 5, they each come with an extra articulated post with the correct peg size.
-
There's also a much shorter part with 5mm holes on both sides that comes with Bandai's new action bases, I'm using one of those on the stand of my Messer VF-1S to display in Battroid.
-
Mirage's set is going to end up quite expensive, I'm guessing, as it comes with the reaction missiles. Though hopefully we get the rest of Delta squad with those as well.
-
Military girl is always best girl. Though in Frontier Klan and Sheryl were both good.

To upload photos, just drag the file over the reply box and it'll get added as an attachment. Alternatively upload to imgur or some other image host and paste the direct link to the image into your post.

I think it actually may not fit with the door closed, though obviously won't be able to tell until the kit arrives (in like 2months, due to Private Warehouse). I was more surprised with the quantity, 20 of each type is more than I'd be able to find spots for.
-
I wish I'd been collecting when those came out the first time, maybe I can hope another set comes out to go along with the Delta movie?
-
Mandarake and Jungle don't have any, also they're g'dmn expensive.
