Oh-kay. So this is still TBD?

Congrats guys on your new hauls.

Yep. Same Noel. Just found a new 'waifu' is all. Minmay still going to be my first love. Hahaha! Yeah, ankle joint is super super tight like it was glued or something. I already did what Jenius said on his video reviews/transformation and still won't budge. I'll try to do the screw thing when I get the chance. But right now, it's like just wiggle side to side. That's it. I mean, I like my Valk super tight, but not glued tight. Glad I bought this from HLJ and not from other stores which basically I'll just get a subtle 'you're screwed' response. Oh well.

The best way to approach this is... Follow what your heart tells you. But with that price, that is already cheaper than MSRP. That's it.

The feet on both my Yamato VF-4G were fine. They're not floppy or losse. The arms are more loose, I believe. On this Arcadia release, can anyone confirm if the arm is kinda loose. Like it keeps on shaking. Regarding the pilot figure, I guess it's still the same. They still rattle. I thought they fixed that somehow. You can use bluetac to keep them secure. Now by mentioning the missiles, I guess some of them are still loose, correct? Looks like everything is still the same as Yamato except for the floppy feet and landing gear tire problem like what Gabriel mentioned. Hmmm.

Kinda looks like they came out from a Gradius game.

I was thinking of doing that. But my screw driver can barely reach the screws. Have to check it again tonight.

After I paid for my Hot Rod over at HLJ, I've browsed this thread and saw this video. Gawd, didn't expect him to be smaller than the previous MP figure. And here I am thinking did I purchased a Masterpiece or a Classic line Hot Rod? But I have to admit, the transformation kinda simpler now than the previous one. Looking forward to it.

Gawd! Up to now the left ankle joint on my VF-0S doesn't do anything. I've been wiggling it for the last 2 nights. Looks really like it's going to be fix Battroid or fix Fighter mode.

In the world of Macross -- Resistance is Futile. Hahaha! Same here, Kelsain. But for me, the reason why I browse this thread, is to train my will power to resist.

Just stumbled about this 1/2500 Scaled Geocraper over at TagHobby. Looks nice to add I guess if you have the 1/3000 SDF-1 to re-create 'Macross City'.

Tamashii Effect. Here's what's available at AmiAmi.

Using this method will hide the head, correct? I still like the exposed head though.

Anyways, if ever, can we also keep that part during in Gerwalk mode? Just asking.

Super True. That's why I also don't use Facebook that much.

No worries man!

In this Age of Social Media, it's either everyone turned into a critic or everyone's a freaking genius.

Awesome! Though for final render, you don't need to put those lines on the intake as the intake as per the lineart doesn't have it. Photo courtesy of Macross Mecha Manual

That happened to me on one of my VF-4G. And it's my fault and it's bought it from other members so there's nothing I can do but to fix it. Small dab of super glue. And to be honest, that's the only feature I really hate on every Valks who has it. They're too fragile. VF-4G. VF-0's. Wait. So the grey doesn't have a pink hue on it?

True. If it's not for that 20% discount, I wouldn't bought another one though. So much to pay.

Oh. Hot Rodimus is already out? Cool. I was just asking about this when I replied to HLJ's email regarding my VF-0S. Hope they sent out the invoice for this so I can pay it along with my 2nd VF-0S re-order.

I thought some guys here who have already preordered something from mykombini, where they emailed the customer saying they couldn't fill the preorders or something. Anyone, care to verify this?

Looks like my previous order of VF-2SS at HLJ will ship with VF-0S after all. Just placed my 2nd VF-0S order with them with 20% discount off due to previous ankle joint problem. Hope the 2nd one will have no problems. Now I will have extra for the upcoming Reactive Armor. Though I might need to wait a little bit for the SDF-1 and Hot Rodimus before it will get shipped. So happy with HLJ. Good thing I listened to the experts here.

I'm happy that HLJ replied to my email regarding the VF-0S ankle joint. They offered me to send back the item for full refund or if I'm going to keep it, they will give me 20% refund store credit. I might end up using it to buy another VF-0S. Cool! Reactive Armor, here I come.

I do have a Yamato 1/60 VF-11C. But haven't had the chance of owning the first generation of Yamato Macross Plus figures in 1/72. The only way I guess for me to compare is, is to ask if it has the same plastic quality as Yamato's 1/60 Valks? Bandai's DX Valks? Hasbro/Takara's TF Masterpiece figures? Or Robot Damashii Gundam Figures? But yeah, I don't think it matters now since the VF-2SS is already paid and I'm just waiting for some other stuff to come in before shipping it from HLJ's Private Warehouse. I'm not too concerned about it now since majority of people here who already owned it says they like in one mode or another. And that's already good for me. It's NOT the perfect VF-2SS, but it's the only one available out there which in scale with my Macross Collections. IF ever there's going to be another one down the line from another company, then yeah, I'll check it if it's as good or better than Evolution Toys' and decide from there. But for now, I'm just happy that I also PO'ed the Faerie SAP version. But stlll thinking if I should cancel that oen and get the NEXX instead. The only thing that's stopping me from getting the Nexx is the color.
