    Thanks @twich! I do like high contrast photography! I did use a white piece of paper off camera to reflect light to the underbelly of the 1S. Otherwise a lot of detail would be lost. This is a temporary place holder for the 1S, but I do love how it looks. I should have two 1/60 valks there instead. Yes, it is a nearly 20 year old 1/60 PG Wing Zero Custom. I recall one of the legs did slide off from the hip peg, but i slid it back in with no problems. The left outer "triceps" cover pops off easily. One of the big wings do slide easily if you try to do try to pose them. I only rarely pose my Gundams, so this thing has been posed like 3 times in 19 years. The hands are original, and they do look too slim, but I managed to pose in a way that looks as natural as possible. All in all, I didn't really finish it, and/or sanded the places where i clipped the parts. I may do a wash on it eventually. I do love it, but I think it could have been better than it is. This is my only PG, as it's flaws prevented me to venture in other PG versions. I am sure they have improved over the years. The other PG Gundam I would try is a newer RX-78 or RX-79 from the 8thMS series. Sorry for hijacking the thread gents!

    Sorry @sh9000, but i found this new DX Hikkie 1S for 26,727 yen at amazon.jp. i had to.... Total was 29,126 yen, and it made it here in only a few days. Roughly 272 bucks shipped, is not as bad as other places, and I could not miss this one. They used bubble wrap so the box was not in spectacular shape, but luckily the valk is intact. I did notice a tiny tilt to the left in the backpack, but it seems not to affect anything. These Dx have some heft to them. I am going to have let go of some of my unicorns. Soon in the Sale section: NEW Yammies 1/48 CF, new Fastpacks, and new GBP armors. I always wanted to build an army, but, I never got around freeing the army from its boxes.

    I was weak. I came across this new DX 1S hikkie for 26,727 yen...
  7. vlenhoff
    Thanks! I got one in!

    I was checking earlier too, but nothing would show up. It seems i didn't know how to search for the pre order. I just wanted Ahzoka, but if I don't get her it is ok. Thanks for the links anyway.
  9. vlenhoff
    I guess pre-orders are my arch enemy.
  10. vlenhoff
    Images where not showing, but no Ahzoka. she is prob sold out already.
  11. vlenhoff
    i can't tell which one is Ahzoka....
  12. vlenhoff
    Apparently . PO is about to begin.
  13. vlenhoff
    I love this Ahzoka, I hope i can get one in.
  14. vlenhoff
    Another Ahzoka and Jango? Oh i am loving this Ahzoka. She seems a bit younger than the one in their latest pre-order. Where is this from? Please don't tell me this is an exclusive.

    Nah, he is right. There is a center stick for the TV verion, and two side controls for the DYRL version.

    Well, maybe a slide in cockpit? At the end of the day, I know we'd all like to get one of each model. IMHO it would make it easier for people to buy their beloved valks if Bandai had more stock, with more options, rather than less options, and too little stock. I believe more options in any product most times a good thing (that goes with video ganes too). It was just a thought, and i know it will never happen. I did appreciate the helmet-less Isamu in the DX YF-19 though. That was a beautiful touch.

    Yeah but Misa has to have 3 arms, as shown in the series. Two arms around Kikkie's neck, and the third one holding Hikkie's hand over the throttle. What is a good price for TV Roy's FP? What was the original release price? Thanks in advance.
  21. vlenhoff
    Actually, every DX valk should come with an open and closed helmets, like the DX YF-19 did. Much better, every yellow/black VF-1S should include 4 figures: Roy TV, Roy DYRL, Hikkie TV space, Hikkie TV open helmet.

    Ha ha, no, I am only joking. Congrats on such an iconic ride, I really like it! Now if we were to fight mano a mano, I would definitely destroy you! After the Miura, Murcielago, and the Countach, this is one of my favorite Lambos.

    I love how Gramps is in the corner looking slightly annoyed. "Get off my lawn!" No, seriously, Sweet display @sqidd!

    Ha, but i am sure they would have to state it is used. I didn't know Amazon sold used products. I hope if they item was used, it would be in the items description. Thanks for the reply! How dare you! I also tell this to myself at night!
