Many hours later after my input... Who's the lucky duck that picked up the DX VF-1J??
-
A DX VF-1J is back up for grabs on Manda for 35k yen - Unopened, package damaged https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1103521990&ref=list&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en Its your call folks...

From what I read and learned (as I don't know the exact details), Yamato went bankrupt and folded. A handful of designers/creators from Yamato that still enjoy their job and what they do, got together and Arcadia started to rise out of Yamato ashes (hence like the Phoenix bird from the Greek/Roman Mythology). During the re-structuring period, somehow Arcadia got/found the VF-1 molds from Yamato and did improvements from the original versions. Arcadia has re-issued the VF-0 (still a hot mess), VF-1, VF-4, VF-19, SDF-1, Mighty Block (?) and made the Reactive Armour for the VF-0 valks. The PF VE-1, valk stand and the SV-51 are newest releases for this year. For the price of the Yamato V.2 VF-1 valks, you're better off getting the Arcadia version as the Yamato versions will cost you a leg and arm at the secondary market. Note: Anyone full versed in this knowledge of the Yamato/Arcadia connection, you're welcomed to correct me. I believe that you are @jenius?

As would everyone else that loves the VF-1J with the GBP!
-
Does anyone know where and when the Black GBP was shown either in SDFM/DYRL or in the other series?
-
Isn't there another Bandai/Tamashii or Wonderfest that shows the upcoming Macross goodies later this year (or my memory is totally wrong)? There is the possibility that it maybe the Tomohawk, Phallanx, N-ger/Q-rau, the rest of the Vermillion Squadron. Maybe the VF-19, YF-21 (teased and never got made), VF-25, VF-1ex (both Mirage and Hayate's colours from their training sessions from Delta). Who knows whats next? Its all guessing game for now...
-
They should of since the GBP is well known. Thanks to a scene where Hikaru ejects the complete suit in space after missing Minmay's live in action for the Miss Macross contest.
-
There is the possibility that the Elvis and Pope versions will be made for the second Delta movie. The model kits of the Hs and the Ba has been done, however Kawamori (?) has the final say if the DX versions of both should be made. Honestly saying, the two variants of the Draken got me interested in Delta, took some time warm up to Siegfrieds.

1/48+fp's, 1/60+fp's, 1/72, 1/2k, 1/3k,1/100 and now 1/144

Another one of my 1/48 grails (and posted in the 1/48 tread as well). Yammie 1/48 Stealth VF-1J with the regular SSP sans missiles
-
sh9000 is right. You can put 6 HMR valks in the Trident stand. Three on the back and three in the front (the attachment for the connectors are at each of the nubs in the center).
-
No Uncle Fester or Lurch included??

Since we all know that Max's 1a has been shown and now in the works, the next possible variant next is Hikaru's/Kakizaki's 1a in which we all hypothesized (with the Angel Birds and Virgin Road down the road). It doesn't seem right if Bandai jumps on and does either Hikaru's/Roy's Strike 1s after this as its a newer headsculpt in the 1/48 line up, although Bandai can macro-size the HMR 1s head sculpt to the limit (in theory). I could be wrong though. As for the 1j headscupt, we all know that M&M's 1j is going to happen. It's just when in line is the waiting game...

Medicom/Hot Toys and all 1/6 scale figures

Anyone going to be totally flat broke since there's so many Endgame stuff is releasing out? From Toyark. https://news.toyark.com/2019/05/09/hot-toys-team-suit-tony-stark-from-avengers-endgame-revealed-344711 https://news.toyark.com/2019/05/09/hot-toys-life-size-nano-gauntlet-from-avengers-endgame-revealed-344701

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

From Amiami yesterday.

A quick question if I may. Since that I don't have either the HMR Gulag or the Regults and waiting for the eventual N-ger/Q-rau/Q-rare, how tall in height (cm or inches) will this Zentradi machine be?
-
That Minmei does look impressive, but not worth the 18k yen (?) that Arcadia is asking for. Honestly saying, it should be around the 9k - 10k yen range. The Spirits Kuji Sheryl is worth the 6.8k yen (all three versions) if you got it when it came out and now asking 8k yen on Manda (versions A & B). Regardless it looks way better than the two EXQ versions of Sheryl.
-
Looks like someone has picked up the 262 Hs for 12k yen form Manda. The Lil'Draken accessories (sword, shield, salvo, colour correct Lil'Drakens) are sold out. Amazon. jp has it for 16k yen and it may not ship to where you are (17.7k yen 3rd party seller and fulfilled by Amazon Japan itself. Maybe slightly priced lower to where you are located).
-
Yep.. Just looked through that. The SSP just adds more spice to the actual valks itself.
-
I can say that @Kicker773's collection is equal in size or does this version surpass it in comparison?
-
Just saw this on YouTube... He's got Part A, B and C (in which I'm posting now).
-
12k for a 262 Hs is a good deal. As for the Elvis and the Ba variants (Mirage's as well), it may surface and be made. Maybe for the second Delta movie?
-
As of right now, Arad's 31s is available on Manda at 34K yen. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1111138846&ref=list&keyword=マクロス&lang=en

Took a glance over on my copy still in the box, no issues found. One less problem avoided.
-
If it was too long, then it will have the issue like the DX YF-19 (Full Set) with the busted antenna (however in the bottom if the styro tray not on top).
