I think this tamashii nation was disappointing for many lines...Macross DX, Saint Seiya Myth cloth, Soul of chogokin(well, except for the Back to the future 3 Delorean Train). Maybe only the figuarts action figures got some exciting news but overall the quality seems to be going down while the prices are going up. Lines with bigger items like Dx, MG etc. aren't getting much love, unfortunately.

It's been few weeks since its release but i thought you might enjoy some pictures of this fantastic Getter 1 From pose+ METAL HEAT line

I live in Italy, around 200km from Lucca, a convention which i attended many times throughout the last three decades(first time in 1992). I was so excited to know that Kawamori was going to be a guest this year! I just couldn't believe it. Too bad i spent the last two weeks at home with two broken ribs and so full of things to do for my job and so behind schedule for my next exam at the university. I know i am going to regret not being able to go to Lucca this year for my entire life. In any case one of my friends was able to attend and sent me these two pics. He said Kawamori was really chatty and very nice and gentle toward all the fans. Happy for him but my heart is broken right now.

That's great news! Another one of my bucket list item i can cross off....and they are rereleasing the legioss too!

I can still the remember the huge disappointment i had when i first opened the box...i was like "you bastard, this is not what you promised! Give me my VF-0D with the right colors right now!" I agree, and i would also add a cannon fodder VF-0D. That gray looked awesome in the cover arts of the model kits(or maybe i saw it somewhere else, can't really remember).

Arcadia's touch. Something Bandai will never achieve (and i own a lot of Bandai DX).

If that's the gray we are getting i have a very bad feeling about this...kinda like Bandai will be reprinting all its VF-1 with his new grayish anime color...

Honestly, i just wanted to show the real science fiction part of the movie...which is not transformable jets, space folds or giant aliens but a man who gets to choose between two women. Always found that part not believable at all.😂

Thank you!👍👍👍

Hey guys, would you like to see some pics of the VT-1??? No?! Well, sorry, too bad... Sorry Hikaru, no weapons on the VT...

Yes, it is absurd and it can get worse...usually it's the 25% of the amount of the item and shipping so for me this time it should have been almost the double(around 80 euros) but honestly here in italy the custom is a little bit like playing the russian roulette.... A mistery, nobody is able to understand how the hell they calculate exactly the fee import. Anyway i did open the box tonight and, watching the toy in plain fighter mode, i did regret buying it. For the first time in my life i feel regret in spending all this money for a Macross toy(or a modern toy in general). I know the feeling is going to pass once i transform it in battroid but honestly, in fighter mode, this YF-21 is embarassing. It made me want to buy another yamato. I will definitely keep my yamato in fighter mode and Bandai DX in battroid, pretending that huge back is not there.

I got mine this morning from Amazon JP and it seems like the antenna is fine. But, because of that, i had to pay an extra 46.00 euro fee for importing the goods. First time that it happens to me with Amazon JP since that usually the import fee is included in the total when you do the initial check out or placed the pre-order. Weird things are happening these days...(clearly the extra fee was not because of the antenna being in good condition, just kidding here😜)

Thanks, yes, i still love the 1/48s from Yamato and always will. Now that i think about it though, as you said they are 20 years old which makes me...well, i don't wanna even think about it...

A little bit of a custom of my own...Yamato 1/48 VF-1S DYRL version plus Yamato TV super parts from the Super VF-1J with Hikaru Hichijo pilot figure. I added some extra decals i was able to find in different models and in other websites. Now, after few years the Valk did start to yellow a little bit. Nothing too serious but you can definitely see it lost its original white. I have to be honest though and tell you that i do like better the color on these super parts rather than the new DX Bandai. Also, not a big fan of the quantity of tampos and their size on the new ones. Oh, the missiles are from Bandai too and they fit pretty well on the old Yamato(just the single ones are a bit loose). Anyway, i know i am going to buy the DX once Bandai will release the bundle. But for now, i still like my Yammie.

So i got the blu ray set from Amazon JP but apparently is region locked, despite on the description there is written the exact opposite. So it seems like i need a Region free or a region 2 blu ray player because the discs won't work on my european PS4. So upset right now. Any suggestion on where to find one at a (very) affordable price?
