No photos yet from someone who has the new Arcadia VF-0A with the Yamato QF-2200-A Ghost Booster on it? I don't have the 'A' Ghost so I'm curious how it looks like esp the colors.

No pre-order dates yet. Only pictures for now.

Nice pics SuperHobo.

You can use a tool called Roll Pin Punches. Hope that helps.

I almost ordered one. Only to realize my son would like the Hikaru VF-1S Strike more than the GBP one. Hopefully after it get released there will be enough to order one. Hahaha! Just lifting everyone's spirits. And the reason to get insane again to save enough dough for next year's releases.

Walkthroughs have been posted in YouTube by Racicot. After you destroyed the Bandit Ships, you need to go back to Gefion for the next task for Mission 1-4. In which you need to go to the dungeon called Ratatoskr Cave under the 'Big Tree'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OXq_9xr5oQ Another helpful link from Red Shoulders Blgospot: http://red-shoulders.blogspot.com/2013/03/macross-30-translation-guide-table-of.html Hope that helps. Good luck finishing the game.

There's that ALL JAPAN MODEL & HOBBY SHOW 2015 on Sept 25-27. Hopefully we hear something new. Delta perhaps? Why it says on the Tamashii date releases it will be on the 19th?

7 VF-1's. All Hikaru's and 1 Roy's. - 3x VF-1J - 2x VF-1A - 2x VF-1S Edit: I forgot to add my 3 VF-1 Revoltechs.

Me too. So from now on... no more Arcadia-bashing, ok?

Yeah. I know what you mean. For the price that's going for this valk, I really need put a limit to it. And that's 500 max. But now I have to worry about saving again for the upcoming PO releases towards the end of this year. Hehehe. But to be honest a lot of VF-4G is popping up from 500 and up. To think that recently it always shows up around 700 and up.

Not sure if this is already posted before. Arcadia released an Important Notice for this release. There was an error on the 2P and 3P Markings Instructions on the manual. And they've posted the updated ones via the links at the bottom. http://arcadia.ac/user_data/notice.php 平素は弊社取扱商品をお引き立て頂きまして誠にありがとうございます。 2015年5月に発売致しました『1/60 完全変形 VF-1Jアーマードバルキリー 一条輝Type』 説明書2P・3P『マーキング説明』にて誤表記がございました。 大変お手数ですが、下記より修正版をダウンロードして頂ければと思います。 1_60-完全変形-VF-1Jアーマードバルキリー-一条輝Type-マーキングステッカー説明書修正版1 1_60-完全変形-VF-1Jアーマードバルキリー-一条輝Type-マーキングステッカー説明書修正版2 お客様には大変ご迷惑をお掛け致しまして誠に申し訳ございませんでした。 今後とも変わらぬご支援ご愛顧を賜りますよう、何卒宜しくお願い致します。 http://arcadia.ac/downloads/vf-1j_manual01.pdf http://arcadia.ac/downloads/vf-1j_manual02.pdf Another notice is to let customers know that the Pilot seat for Battroid mode is not included. And they were asking for an apology for the false claim that it was included. (Though come to think of it, up to now on their VF-1J GBP product page, it still says it includes those accessory.) http://arcadia.ac/user_data/notice2.php 平素は弊社取扱商品をお引き立て頂きまして誠にありがとうございます。 2015年５月に発売致しました『1/60 完全変形 VF-1Jアーマードバルキリー 一条輝Type』 付属品『バトロイド用乗降シート(単座用)』ですが、こちらのパーツは付属致しません。 誤表記がございました事深くお詫び申し上げます。何卒ご理解の程宜しくお願い申し上げます。 お客様には大変ご迷惑をお掛け致しまして誠に申し訳ございませんでした。 今後とも変わらぬご支援ご愛顧を賜りますよう、何卒宜しくお願い致します。 And they also posted their Customer Contact Service page: http://arcadia.ac/contact/ But they also included this message too: To International Customers, We would appreciate it if you could understand the following.

Sept 19 is the general release date. http://tamashii.jp/item/11012/

So basically, you're 'Red'.

Great pics!

Great LEGO purchases guys!

I remember this one. I think this is the same listing I pm'ed to Spanner. Looking at the price, I'm just glad that I purchased the last one at Y48000. And glad I paid everything less than 500. Now I'm done with my Holy (VF-4G)rails. Now start to wish for reissue of 1/3000 SDF-1.

Great pics Saburo and ChaoticYeti!

Don't worry koonfasa. It's just a bad flash from the mold. If you checked Jenius VB-6 Konig Monster review over Anymoon.com you can see that 'snapped' looking tab in the middle. Photo courtesy of anymoon.com

That's ok Major. Though I said it includes a 'stand' and not a 'base'.

Let's just hope that Bandai will acquire the rights from Dengeki first so that they can a lot of VF-19's. That Nothung is in my list if it gets made by Bandai or Arcadia.

True and I agree. I guess, by this time, Arcadia should re-think they're strategies and factory choices. Let's just say as a test bed for this is hire a new production factory, pull out an old mold such as the VF-1 or even the Super/Strike Packs so the cost will be minimum. Let them manufacture it. QC it. And compare it to the ones produced by the existing factory. If it's the same output then use them again for another test such as a VF-1 reissue. I'm not saying they should do this at the same time. Let them do it slowly... but surely. I guess, we're going somewhere for sure if they try to change their attitude on ditching a factory who produces products inconsistently. Anyways, I wish Arcadia a good R&R and rethink everything else. Go Team Arcadia!

Ok, so first of all, don't think of this as a negative reply but more like adding some opinions on the discussion. Hence the emojis. Actually, we both have the same opinion for sure regarding justification. You said that you want perfection for what Arcadia cost is. My take on that is also the same. Somehow I need perfection too since I'm paying premium price on these. And since I know that it's not going to be 100% perfect, I just wish that I will get what I paid for. If it gets broken down the line or just right outside the box, there's really nothing I can do since they don't extend their warranties outside Japan shores. We can't just ask for refunds nor replacement parts. Basically the moment we pay for this and get the items, we're already bound to the agreement that there's nothing they can do outside Japan. We're already screwed the moment we receive a defective item. And yes, I'm happy too with my first Yamato valks which are the Hikaru 1S and 1A. Even though I got them with cracked shoulders. The point is, we can say whatever we want, we can wish whatever we want, we can compare them to different companies if we want to, and we can bash them all day long for their QC ways. Sad to say but that's how it is nowadays for companies who makes the toys we want. It's either we support them or just stay away from them. But always remember and keep in mind that they really DON'T CATER or target audience outside Japan. And we're just happy that there's some online stores that sells the goods outside Japan.

Even with Arcadia we will not get any 'perfect' toys since all of this is mass-produced. If I want perfection, for sure they will charge more, and I will need to pay more. We're not seeking for perfection, we're seeking justification to what we pay for. Just my 2 cents for this matter and roughly Y35000 for VF-0S.

I know that you meant the 'city' base. It's just that I thought you're asking if it 'includes' the city base on this preorder thing based on your first question. But, for now, there was no link yet if they're going to put the 'city' base too for web exclusive preorder. Hope that helps.

Looks like you have a broken peg from one of the thigh halves. That happened to me too on my VF-0D. By the way, while you're at it, tighten also the knee swivel joint since the thigh halves are already open just in case for the future. To prevent the VF-0 doing uncontrollable splits.
