Those are all great customs! The first dark blue ones are my favorite. They're actually the same colors of the state trooper vehicles here in NY state.
-
I feel like it's best to wait until they have a final prototype before I come to any assumptions about what I like or don't like about it. Looks pretty so far to me though and I'm glad they went with a more obscure Valk for a new release.
-
Considering space and cost I'm passing on this one. In fact, the only one of the these new VF-31ax's I like is the Mirage model. I planned on only getting designs I truly love after my initial binge getting back into collecting these. -
Would be nice to be able to pick up another super strike set for a decent price. I wish they'd just make it easier for everyone.

If you're talking about the double saber that was in the evil Rey scene, a company called EFX is making a prop replica that doesn't have functioning electronics or the blade. It's just the hilt. But you can check out places like Korbanth Sabers to see what they have. There's actually a lot of saber makers out there that offer non licensed products that are of varying degrees of quality.
-
Maybe people who've been hoarding them are finally unloading. Probably the guys who use Bots to make online purchases.
-
Love those working sabers. Been wanting a Dark Saber myself.
-
I'd definitely get this one. I looked up the VF-3000 to see what it looked like and I'd love for them to make this one as well.
-
Our wallets are probably ok with the slowness of releases now though.😁

DX VF-25 Messiah Valkyrie WORLD WIDE MACROSS (WWM) 40th Anniversary

True. Fingers crossed 🤞 -
I can relate. I'm a mechanical engineer. Though honestly prefer civil engineering. I chose the wrong discipline LOL.

DX VF-25 Messiah Valkyrie WORLD WIDE MACROSS (WWM) 40th Anniversary
Special Sauce replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
This is a reissue of the renewal version of the VF-25F. Which was in its own right an improvement over the original version. So I think you're probably safe. If anything, it could be an even better version if they tweaked anything else. -
LOL you're most certainly a glass half full kind of person.
-
I'm sure it'll get there at some point. A Max VF-1S is on my wish list. I feel like there's a good chance Bandai will make it.
-
Yeah that's about the only Valk that is LOL
-
I go to your site right before I purchase any Valk. You've been able to give me good info. to decide whether or not to pull the trigger on a purchase.
-
That's ridiculous. I'm sorry that happened to you. It almost looks like someone took it out, played with it, then put it back and re-sealed it.
-
Stop making me want a VF-1D
-
Love the chest hair detail . Was one of my favorite shows as a kid.
-
I'm sure this is just beating a dead horse but for what Bandai is charging for these nobody should have to make modifications in order for the toy to work properly. I'm kinda glad I didn't have a chance to pre-order it now. Hopefully the Mirage is better.
-
I'm in the states so no import taxes and with BBTS offering $4 flat rate shipping $225 total isn't bad at all. I'll take that. I may start to look at other US stores in the future but I'm fine with that deal for now.
-
Are people pissed that stayed up during pre-order madness whether they scored or not? Now those guys must be cancelling orders left and right. I mean they'd be paying higher shipping fees if they didn't.

DX VF-25 Messiah Valkyrie WORLD WIDE MACROSS (WWM) 40th Anniversary
Special Sauce replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
Yeah, same here. Got back into this from being out for a while. Back when I originally collected Yamato was just starting out and things were pretty easy to get. Stopped right before Bandai started doing Frontier. I'm just going to wait until release time and see if I can score then. I was able to the the VF-1J armor and Valk set pretty easily for only a slight markup using that strategy. -
Damn, I need this in my life. Thank God there won't be any pre-order madness nonsense with this.
-
Yeah I'd consider paying about $650-$700 altogether figure included because I can respect the amount of time the artist spent painting it but that's where my limit would be and that's only if I was totally in love with it.
