WOW. Great review and awesome video!!!! I am very tempted ......

Sweet pics wolfx!! And I'm with Dobber, is there suppose to be a TF Alternators line for aircraft?!?! No way .....

Maybe as the figure went from prototype to production, they realized that their initial design was either not cost effective to make, or flawed? Just a thought ....

Good point mate ....

I'll probably "cave" and get the VF-0A ...

I recommend to all to buy it online from Deep Discount DVD.com. Their prices are usually pretty good + free shipping, and they have an annual sale where all DVDs are 20% off - just gotta check when at www.dvdpricesearch.com.

Thanks for the pics wolfx ... the MPC is lookin' sweet. I know the colours are "accurate", but I still like it. I wonder how the fighter mode looks beside a 1/48 Yammie?

The more I see the VF-0 valk, the more I want it ....

Great points folks ... guess we'll wait and see. IF those figures actually show up at my local suncoast store, like previous Toynami toys. And I hope they do indeed get the marked down price in a few months. Is this likely to happen? I never really thought about that. So, are you saying that if I wait to buy some of the upcoming new 1/48 releases, I might be able to buy them cheaper months later?!? No way! Cause right now I am torn - I want to get the DYRL Max & Kakizaki, AND the VF-0A - but I think my budget will only allow 2. Which ones to get?!?!

Be strong my friend! 'cause I'm trying to be strong too... 421874[/snapback] Count me in as well ... gotta try and wait for the VF-0A ...

I gotta admit - collecting valkyries is addicting. I don't know if I could quit cold turkey. Plus, hanging around these forums doesn't help.

it's the new whine. With the 1/48 it was "why don't they give us all the different head variants?" and now it's this. How true ... but you know you LOVE it!!!

1. More tampo printing. 2. Include a set of "clown hands" with ALL VF-1 valks.

There's been A LOT of talk about how the 1/100 Toynami valk is a "great deal" for $20. Just out of curiousity, how many of you out there actually ONLY paid $20 for the VF-1S Hikaru? Or, any of the other 1/100 models? If you went to the convention to buy the VF-1S Hikaru you had to pay the conference entrance fee, plus transportation costs. Plus, didn't someone say it was selling for $25 at the booth? (I may be wrong on that one.) If you bought them from the RT site, you had to buy the "Roy/Rick/Max" combo for $59.99 + shipping, which is NOT $20 a piece. I've seen the individual figures listed on eBay, for about $23 each + shipping. Point is, even though the MSRP is $20 - the ACTUAL price isn't. I myself bought it from LOS for about $40 (including shipping) ... about the same as a 1/55 Bandai. Not trying to stir it up or annoy anyone - just some thoughts.

It'll be interesting to see what the MSRP is for the DVD ... regardless, I plan on waiting to hear fan reaction/reviews before I pick it up.

Cool. Good to hear. To be honest, I've only been back onto the TF scene the last 3 months. And I really haven't paid that much attention to the new releases ... been spending a lot of time on eBay trying to acquire classic G1 gestalt sets. Which I am happy to report, am almost done. Also have tried a couple of TF Alternator figures ...

That would be sweet .... although cheaper maybe.

Ha ha ha ... great link mate!!!

Thanks for the info baronv - since I rarely go to the RT site anymore. Although, like many others ... I'll wait and see what the response is.

Yeah, me too. I've always preferred Skywarp - cool black look. Are they going to reissue the MPC Starscream as Skywarp? Is this confirmed? or just a rumour?

That marketing poster is SWEET!

I don't think there was a 6 month lead time before the Max reissue was annouced ...

Cool pic Dante74!

Froy - Nice collection mate! Jenius - I agree with fansubs2000, I dunno how you do it, but you take the sweetest pics of the mecha in action poses mate!! Thanks to you both for sharing ...

kensei - I am more than willing to help "unburden your load of valkyries" that you have to unpack ... just send 'em my way!! baronv - Awesome collection mate!! Thanks for sharing .....
