  1. It's irony that Big West and the guys can't release the Macross products over international waters due to Harmony Gold's involvement when in fact even within themselves they can't approve any license due to the fact that the Valk didn't transform in that 5, 10, 20 seconds flying routine. Shame. For sure, they know themselves that once they approved the Flashback 2012 coloring, it will be an instant hit to the fans. I will always expect a higher price mark now from every Arcadia releases. The only Valk I can think of comparing prices between Yamato initial price and Arcadia initial price is the recent released VF-1J/GBP. Yamato release it for Y16800. Arcadia for Y23800. That's 40+ish% of increase. I don't know how much VF-4G were released that time, but I'll assume that it's going to be around Y40000+, reissue or recolored, just to go head to head with the second market prices. They know for sure that people are buying this above Y50000, and that is already their base point. Just saying.
  2. Hey Spanner. I'm no Konig Monster expert... but I'll go with the one that has 'tampo'. Saying that is more in-line with 'Go for Special. You know, the one with Cherry on top'.
  3. Great pics @EFSF! Waiting for yor MAX 22. And yes, they're the same except for the face and the side skirts. You just can't mount the gunpods on the 22 during fighter mode. I believe he already has Max. He posted on the Purchase thread. And he got it for a good price too. Regarding stands, he can get the YetiStands, and pose the two lovebirds together in one stand.
  4. Cool! Enjoy the Dual Strike Pack as well.
  5. That's what I thought too on their VF-4G.
  6. ○○ - ○○ ○○○○○○ VF-4G ライトニング To think that I just bought my second one half a month ago. I'm just only IN for this if it's the Flashback version. And will sell my other one just in case. If not, I'll pass if it's just a straight Yamato reissue. But yeah, to be honest, it's a good move for Arcadia. Atleast people who misses the first Yamato releases and for people who just started collecting Macross this IS their chance to buy the Holy Grail in MSRP. Keep it up, Arcadia!
  7. All we need is discipline. Need to resist the temptation. Hahaha! By the way, I'm curious, since you guys have 2 or 3 YF-29s. Displayed in their respective 3 modes, still what are you planning to do with a fourth one?
  8. You're just saying that to justify your Macross spending spree. Lol Hahaha! By the way, congrats on the 17S.
  9. Sometimes, it all depends on everyone's preference. - Expensive vs Cheap - Gloss vs Matte - Collectible vs Playability - Old School Macross vs Macross Frontier - Tampo vs Stickers - Size vs Size - Correct Color vs Wrong Color - Simplicity vs Over-Engineered - Big Box vs Small Box - Plastic Trays vs Styros

    Hey, no worries, guys. I'm no mod here. So we're all good here. And besides, every member here is entitled to their own opinions. That's where we're good at. Congrats to everyone who had multiple PO's on this guy. Let's hope there's big chance for Bandai to make more stuff -- SDF style!
  11. Ikuze Kawaiikochan! Woohoo!
  12. Nah. 2 is max for now. I'm just buying additional for the VF-0A Shin. 3 would be nice if I'm buying 2 VF-0S. But sad to say, I only have budget for one. December is an expensive month for me. VF-0S and VF-2SS.
  13. As long that the main wing is not swept back like VF-25's during Battroid mode, I'm good.

    Uhm, I'm not a mod, but please check his reply first (below) from the previous page before the topic gets out of hand. He already apologize and answered when we told him that it's not the members fault on buying multiples. Thanks. Cheers!
  15. Welcome to the club! You should check out Jenius' Anymoon site and CollectionDX's Macross Reviews. Lots of things to learn regarding Valkyries and whatnot.
  16. Hahaha! Well, let's do hope that they use the same blue hue on the 'plastic' itself rather than painted on.
  17. Ok. So what kit are you talking about? The Yamato 1/60 Unassembled kit or any model kits in particular? If so, you can also post this over at the 'WANTED' section.

    4 Regults??? Now, you have some explaining thing to do. LOL
  19. Yeah. We have the same problem with Zwarth. I can't figure out on how to open the waist joint so that I could fix the loose joints by adding nail polish or future into it. Regarding the SPEC line, I'm planning on buying the L-Gaim before hoping that they will release the MKII too. But when they announced the RS line for L-Gaims, I'm just glad that I didn't bought the SPEC one. Though I do have the OffShoots version of L-Gaim and Dunbines as well. I'm just saving it for my son when he's ready.
  20. Yeah. If you're just pointing out Macross releases, then you could just put the blame on Harmony Gold. The rest is more like if it's not released internationally because some audience is not familiar with it, then there's no chance of getting it English sub. Whereas with Gundams, most of their releases now even initial releases already have english subtitles or better yet english dubs.

    Or they could just add another head/body on the Tamashii exclusive add-on parts for the Scout option just to justify the exclusive 'Y9000' price tag. That's two missile pod racks and the Scout head/body part unit. Photo courtesy from Macross Mecha Manual.
  22. I do hope so. But I'm still conditioning my mind and my wallet on the said 'expensive' price so that I won't get too disappointed or frustrated the moment they announce how much it's going to cost. I mean, I'm already decided to get one despite how much the cost it's going to be. But it's better for me to think that it's going to get released for about Y20K+. I will feel much better if they will release it for Y10K and less, so better if that happens, I just might buy 2 sets just to 'help out' the company.

    It's a race against time, my friend. I know and I understand what you mean. But to tell you the truth, this is the only preorder madness that lasted for an hour or two. Most PO madness on big releases just ends in less than a minute and most of us here complains a lot since we get cart jacked or always get webpage refresh errors only to find out that it's already been sold out. And I really mean LESS than a MINUTE. Everyone here can confirm this. And it's not the MWF members fault. All the online shops that put the Regult have a limit of 3 per customers whereas the other big releases just get 1 per customer. So if the customers/members from every forum wants and afford to get 3, then it's his right to get 3. And it's better that this went to 'sold out' since there's a big chance based on demands that more will be available soon and from there we will know if they will release the other Regult variants. And besides it's still not the end of the world, HLJ and Anime-Export is still not posting theirs, so you still have a big chance to score one. Just my 2 cents. +1. This is SUPER TRUE. +1
