    Congrats to all who wanted it and got in!

    When are folks (in the US, especially) likely to start getting their Angel Bird POs, though?
  3. Radioguy
    Wow. Well, this IS the God Of Flame.
  4. Radioguy
    What batch were you in? 1st? 2nd? 3rd+?
  5. Radioguy
    Love that Bishop comes separated like that. 😄

    Actually thought it was this guy... https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-robotech-thread.1036141/page-107#post-20931376 But the box number is wrong, so he's not alone!

    But when??? I swear I don't what's happening these days. I still can't get my head around two companies having matching licenses (which the scale and articulation seem to be) with equal world distribution. Unless TZ has to wait for KC to shut down its range first...

    Shame. They would sell. But I do get the ease of KO'ing the 1/55 design. Less parts, to be sure.
  9. Radioguy
    Hardy har-har. 😄 But seriously...they seem so easy to KO. If they were a few bucks a piece, I'd actually grab a bunch and laud them for being worth it.

    Just curious...have there been KOs of Toynami 1:100 releases? I mean the quality is already on par with KOs... 😄

    My gut says maybe $800 during a 3am PO, but $1k going forward.

    Apparently, GOF orders are requesting the second payments now, so I guess they will soon ship. I look forward to actual received GOF pics.

    Joy of the hunt?

    I still hit thrift shops (not expecting Macross stuff), and sometimes find the odd piece of vinyl I'm after and don't yet have. Finding something makes me feel like I did out of school when I spent hours doing stuff like that. Like a prospector finding a gold nugget. The internet, eBay especially, only fulfills when you find the odd item mislabeled and you score a bargain that others missed. That's like finding a platinum nugget (not so likely).

    I thought God Of Flame was to ship first.
  15. Radioguy
    I think I'm gonna wait for that too. I'm a guy who loves the actual IRL plane-based designs, and so skew to VF-1 variants, but I would want a YF-21 in 1:48. That is, unless I see one of the existing ones for like $10. I can only resist so much.

    At times I agree with you, in that I love saving enough money at the end of the year that I can actually buy a figure with the difference. However, you can argue that should Macross become popular again, the items could be just as cheap sold here as a result. That's part of why I choose to support shops that carry Macross, and ask buyers to order Macross items when they can. I want the shops to survive, and Macross to get more exposure to other customers.

    I'd considered ordering it too, but an online review cited looseness and attributed it to mold degradation. I'd be interested in your experience should you open and assemble it, @sh9000.
  18. Radioguy
    If they were, more might be produced, and, conceivably, the price might actually be lower as a result.

    For me, the green visor seems to clash with this livery/color scheme. If the visor were golden too...I dunno. Maybe. That woodland camo valk is a longtime want of mine since I saw Revell's USA release of the "ROBOTECH CHANGERS" version of the Imai kit of the VF-1D labeled as "Orbot". It's a natural progression of repaint ideas, and Yamato was smart to do it. I'd jump if DX/Arcadia did a new one....maybe even if KC did too...
  20. Radioguy
    It's really hard to collect Macross figures on a budget. Trust me, I know. Aside from the good advice above, creating saved searches on eBay, Craigslist, etc. is a good idea. Especially those folks accepting offers on their listings. Most of all, if an item is not THAT far off from your price range, MESSAGE THE SELLER! You never know what might happen, and it never hurts to ask.
  21. Radioguy
    KC just screwed up on how to do it.
  22. Radioguy
    Hilarious.
  23. Radioguy
    GameStop has these in the USA, but NOT Valks. Leaves me stunned.
  24. Radioguy
    Wow, they really are digging deep into licenses. Now I wanna see Cannon's and Barnaby Jones' rides.
  25. Radioguy
    The more I look at that maroon Valk Factory Millia VF-1J the more I wanna do that Axoid custom myself...damn, I wish these were like $50 instead of $150 😆
