  1. kick ass!!
  2. Collectors item than can later resell for much much more, like the VF-1S Bundle with the cheap 1 dollar LED flashlight that scalpers insist on selling for over 300
  3. very nice!
  4. *sigh of relieve* wallet *sigh*
  5. Arcadia is playing it smart. If they said they will release a VF-1D Virgin Road or VT-1 Super Ostrich would most people have bought a VF-1S reissue with a stand and waterslide decals? would people double or triple dip on the v2 YF-19?? They are keeping things nice and quiet so people won't skimp on some releases for what they really want.
  6. There was a later reissue of the Millia Q-Rau that came with no pilot figurine. The Max Q-Rau comes with no pilot figure, the CM figure fits if you take the base and feet off. A bit off topic. Has anyone been having any issues with EMS shipping from overseas? My Arcadia Roy and Hikaru VF-1S took forever to clear NY customs, as well as several packages of fromjapan.com, they stay stuck in custom for a week and a half until they later get release and get delivered the next day, at first I thought it was due to the holiday rush but it's long over now and customs keep delaying my stuff. Might as well pick Registered Air Mail and save a few bucks if it's gonna keep taking close to two weeks to clear customs.
  7. I think we all learned something from the great panic buying frenzy of 2013!!
  8. aha! indeed, companies always make WF exclusive stuff that they know will sale at no matter what price they put. That thing is truly a collectible for the hardcore.
  9. It was never confirmed why Yamato went bankrupt, they also sold a lot of figurines and statues worth more than Macross valks. We only speculated on how over saturation of an expensive niche product was not all that good for business. Althought, many companies do something similar as a restructuring to improve business with a clean slate before the loses are too big.
  10. top part could be molded blue and bottom part light gray, the rest tampoed to match like in the TV VF-1 legs and VF-1J M&M.
  11. Frontier style FP would be awesome!! Never thought the hard point on the wing could function as an attachment point for the FP since they are flat now, would be very clever. I wanna say it's for the fold booster, but seems a bit dumb since this is the v3 for the most anime accuracy but go totally inaccurate on the fold booster attachment?? Bandai has the Frontier license, which means that little dumb SMS logo. It can not stop Arcadia released those FP with a UN Spacy logo.
  12. Holy crap that is so fvcking cool!!! But hell no for 1000 bucks. For that price is must collapse for storage. I'd love it for the light to be functional and to at least make a loud badass GAU-8 sound.
  13. VF-1D, you can get it a fair price. VT-1 with most likely a bad shoulder for no less than 300, no thank you.
  14. The only way destroids will sell well is if Arcadia has nothing else in line to be released, they will only be bought when people have no valk to buy. Sad but true.
  15. No thanks! whats the deal with the blue canopy?
  16. Macross 7 is the series that shows almost every VF aside from the VF-4. And lets no forget clown dressed VF-1 and senile Monster, hehehe back on topic. I bet WF will reveal the VF-0D, final prototype or the YF-19, VF-1A Alaska, VF-1J Hikaru, Max and Millia. ummm Fast packs??
  17. Those stilettos!!
  18. That 777, WOW!!!!!! off to a good start Nyankodevice
  19. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
  20. It's a VF-0D! Arcadia is continuing Yamato's old projects, they're reviving Macross Zero line. ^_^ OMG! we're getting Edgar LaSalle!! I want my figure with a cast and crutches!
  21. Yeah, his answer was a bit disappointing.
  22. The old Yamato's only came with stickers, Arcadia now includes waterslide decals also. Stickers are easier and more forgiving to place, they are very high quality stickers and bond well with the valk but you will notice they are stickers. Waterslide decals are a bit difficult to place, if you wish the best result you need to apply them with decal softener/setter for them to set and bond with the surface even taking the shape where they are placed, once placed they look like part of the paint itself but unless you apply a clear coat on top, the decals could get easily scratched or break off.
  23. Whatever its coming in WF, I just hope it's new stuff and things we've been asking for a while (TV and Super/strike parts, SDF-1, VF-1J M&M) I got the VF-1S Roy and Hikaru mostly to support them, overjoyed by the new YF-19 but I don't want another re-release with a stand and decals. I fully support Arcadia but I don't want to feel like this anymore.
  24. LOL Toynami!! It tells a lot from a company when its more likely to get a DYRL helmet from a small bike helmet company than some silly plushies. Hope I didn't jinx Masei now
  25. I've gotten a lot of stuff from mandrake, never a problem. Just a heads up, it appears that yahoo japan has gone the way evilbay way and some seller start off with a very low bidding price but exuberant shipping prices, maybe they know a lot of foreign buyers can fall for this. Always check the auction details closely.
