    The armor-only release is p-Bandai, that means web exclusive.
  2. Sanity is Optional
    There was a HMR add-on with missile launch effects.

    Got it into cart at HLJ, but order stop before it finished loading me into the checkout. oh well, probably shouldn’t have spent that money anyways.

    I’ve got 2 original release VF-1Js, I’ve got 2 armor sets on order, and yet for some reason I am still sorely tempted to pre order a combo pack. I think I may be broken.

    There's only two levels of PF I'm interested in for valks: VE-1 style, all the tampo, none of the stickers VF-0D style, whole-hog with paint, lining, weathering, and a top-coat. Doesn't make sense on most valks though, VF-0D made sense due to it being atmospheric/naval fighter that was shown with weathering effects in Zero.

    Just confirmed, I’ve got a copy of the hasegawa PE upgrade sheet for the 1/48 YF-19. Got it off HLJ a while back to go with my unbuilt kit. Still sealed in the bag, inside the kit box in my closet.

    Combo pack hasn't been released yet.
  8. Sanity is Optional
    I guess Chuck's getting a 31A-variant?

    Wow, all they did for me on the SV-51 leg error was tell me to pound sand. Haven’t used them since.
  10. Sanity is Optional
    The OP and ED were also downright amazing in that series.
  11. Sanity is Optional
    Woke up and my FromJapan proxy order for 2 went through. Nice and easy, just the way I like it.

    Looks like a big difference is pulling the ankles out on the Bandai one, and also that the Arcadia legs are a bit chunkier.

    It is bundled? The P-Bandai release is stand-alone. The general release is a bundle.
  14. Sanity is Optional
    Haven't purchased anything, but I did get my replacement SV-51 legs through a forwarding address.
  15. Sanity is Optional
    I am down for that.

    It varies. A lot. A VF-1 battroid is roughly the same height as a male trooper zentradi, or Breetai. However, A VF-25 battroid is roughly the same height as Klan Klan in Frontier, despite being significantly taller than a VF-1. Also some of the individual zentradi are larger or smaller, and the scale of Regults to VF-1 makes zero sense if their pilots are the same size as a battroid VF-1. In short: anime magic happens, they are whatever size is right for the scene. Anything else is just justifications for animation inconsistencies.

    Well, the Nora inherently has a lot more tampo-work. I'd be definitely down for a sticker-free top-coated version.

    The last time Bandai had both stand-alones and combos of the same DX Macross items was when they printed the V1 VF-25 figures. Since then it's been exclusively standalone valk and standalone parts, or combo pack of valk+parts (such as Maruyama VF-171Ex) with no individual printing of either. The "exceptions" being the re-print YF-29 combo-pack which was only available as standalones on the first print, and the HMR VF-1J vs VF-1J armored combo pack. So my money is on either a combo pack, similar to what they did with the HMR Armored VF-1J, or on a stand-alone armor release. Leaning towards the stand-alone as it's the vast majority of their DX part releases.

    Well, I'm in for at least one. Oh, who are we kidding, at least 2.
  20. Sanity is Optional
    Ah, the main cockpit exterior block. That would do it. Probably ought to crack my various boxes open and check for defects I suppose.
  21. Sanity is Optional
    Good lord, what even is in vol 35? (I haven't cracked mine open yet, waiting for vol 100)
  22. Sanity is Optional
    For the sanity-challenged, it's up on the US P-Bandai website.
  23. Sanity is Optional
    There's some things that are changed, you can either look-up a change overview, or just watch them. The largest change is that a certain little brother didn't kill a certain high-school girl.
  24. Sanity is Optional
    Yeah, I have one of those textured ABS sheets underneath, had to cover it up because the grip was a bit too good and I couldn't get the prints off. The Kapton tape is great since if it sticks too much I can just peel the tape off and the part with it. I use 4" wide ~2.5mil thick tape (1mil kapton, ~1.5mil adhesive), 15feet for $33 at Mcmaster, and a bit cheaper elsewhere.

    There were some production issues with Winder Egg, thus the random recap episode. There’s a special in June IIRC which will properly finish the story.
