No lotto, just digging myself deeper in debt lol...

This is it, until April...

Nice custom VF-11.

For the price of the YF-19, it should come with the PWS-0X armor set! Now, if were talking about the VF-19(all variants NOT including YF-19 variants), according to the Hobby Link Japan's website before discounts it was 22000yen. The VF-0's had a list price of 16800yen. With booster set it was 19800yen. Factoring inflation to the prices, the VF-0 with ghost booster set would come out around the same price as the VF-19 in 2013. Of course this is just using $USD with the list prices and not factoring discounts. This is just one way to compare it as I'm sure there are other sites you can use. Anyways, I went here http://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ and plugged in the year of release with the list prices at HLJ. Using the site above as reference, I can see it being in a similar price point to a VF-19 if they sold the VF-0's as a ghost bundle or valk only+display stand.

Air foam rolls.

R.I.P. I really liked his dioramas. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

Iron man + scout trooper + ASIMO + Halo enforcer armor= Valkyrie Taken from the link (with a little editting ): "One of the goals of the DARPA contest is to create robots that can take over from humans in certain situations without needing any special accommodations, which is why the robot is humanoid."

Pretty good. I thought it was this: http://eyeforthings.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/ep25_macross_cake.png

Do they put up the no box goods on their website? Spotted a SV-51 and VF-1d for 8400yen in the display.

I wish they could make a cheyenne II, III+work destroid variations with ground crew and loaders.

Iron man mark 1 ver 2.0. Man the level of detail on their figures are amazing!

You can still find YF-29's on the secondary market if you really want them. Got a YF-29 30th for $180 a few months ago. Might pick up 2 of these though.

Found some stuff I had forgotten about and I got Isamu some company come April:

The only thing I don't care for in YJA is the extended ending feature. If selected, it automatically extends the bidding time for a set time. If anyone else bids during that time, time resets. I think that's how it works. I guess just like a live auction it'll keep going till nobody bids after that. Sometimes what I thought was a good deal ends up going over my spending limit. Helps keep the bid snipers at bay.

Should consider that scheme for the 50th anniversary.

Hopefully those are screw holes on the side and there is one in the top middle. That's how it works on my helmet and it can be converted to run without the visor they provide screw hole inserts here it is http://www.afxhelmets.com/helmets/dualsport/fx-39ds.php?show=black. It's pretty stable at speed but the visor isn't as large and allows air to flow through so maybe that helps reduce lift.

Strange, the Milia had a different price 2 days ago or I must be going bonkers. Even the Hikaru hi metal was 11000¥ a few days ago.

Good take at mixing Ace Combat and Macross. This guy must love the CFA-44 Nosferatu prototype with it's missle spam and all.

Got snatched up after I took my eyes off for a minute.http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1416970.html

Thank you Falcon18 and YF-29 Durandal for the link and pic of the list. Some marked safe with asterisks are because of color chipping when transforming.

Go to www.anymoon.com for references if you want to research the version differences. It has a pretty good list of reviews for different macross toys produced. It's not list of everything made but has quite a lot. Here is the version 1 review:http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=1276 Here is the version 2 review:http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=4599 You can try a search here on these forums to see if they have something too if that helps. Good Luck and have fun!

NY has the supers, it sold out before but they have more restock somewhere but the price is slowly increasing.

Might keep an eye on mdrake.. There was 2 last time I checked, 8000 and 9000 yen respectively. Other than NY, yahoo auctions and ebay (saw one for $150ish) I can't think of anyone else with it in stock at this time. Maybe someone here might have an extra set. Good luck.

IMHO, If it feels like it takes forever to transform the VF-25's are easier if you decide to get more F valks.
