    The long time 1:48 M&M VF-1 (a year or two ago) and 1:60 M&M VF-22 staying in the 50% off sale bin (currently on HLJ and Amiami) probably don't motivate Yamato.

    Well there is one used copy keep being listed for $300 on eBay, but no taker. It is not gona sold for big $ since the regular version of VF-1S Hikaru and Strike Pack are still in production - even went on sale on HLJ for 40% off around April, and this version only got the packaging and flash light over the regular one. If it is a low-vis VF-1S, VT-1 or VE-1 then they were being sold for $300+

    Well it is coming anyway (Oct restock): http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00195

    Where are you buying it from? I expect HLJ to put up another Yamato sale soon, like they always do every 3 months or so.

    It depends on how easy it is to transform it, and the space to put it back on. The 1:55 I have at work used to get transformed once per day since it is easy and strong. At home only the 1:60v2 VF-1A CF get transformed regularly since it is easy and don't take up much space in any mode. The 1:60v2 VF-1S Strike don't get touched as much since the old crouch lock is a pain. The VF-11B is OK since it is relatively easy. The VF-25S Armored, Sv-51 and YF-21 don't get touched since it is complicated and usually need to fetch the stand adapter from the box. 1:3000 SDF-1 is easy to transform, but it means a major rearrangement of the shelf if it stay in new mode.

    That is not a price difference. Yamato list their price with 5% sale tax include, since it is legally required in Japan. Export only shop don't charge that tax so they list the real price 22000 yen.

    VF-19S - November, 22000 yen + tax

    Another data point would be the release date - Dec 2006 or June 2007 with fold booster? My 2007 unit was OK when I boxed it last year. Graham you had 2x 2006 units when writing the original review. Is the second one still fine?

    Original high-res from Yamato's blog: http://www.yamato-toys.com/blog/index.php?logid=334 They haven't decide on the color between close-to-black or more blueish. At least they borrowed a re-mastered DVD set for reference.

    Yeah looks like they are selling unpainted version with VF-1A and VF-1J head.

    SCOOP thread!

    ^^ Google translate gave "VF-17S, VF-19S/P/F", "a kit version of the Phalanx", and a nasty warning about don't leak photos.

    I remember reading something like that - fold wave/signal booster, kind of like a sound booster that works for Vajra.

    Max and Millia V2s

    CF18 replied to DarrinG's topic in Toys

    The best part with M&M is you can do fancy pose and it feels natural for them. Mine has been standing like this on my PC for a while: Now, base on this drawing from Tenjin Hidetaka: They will not stay that way long term - it's hard to avoid touching paint on the wing's upper surface.

    There are some in the drunk valks comic: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=30854&view=findpost&p=910148 I would rather wait and see if Yamato will extend the VF-19 mold to make YF-19 v2.
