@ lancalot-Nice grabs, been deciding if i should get the Macross Quarter or not. Yup, bought it that way. Just gotta find another one for my other VF-0A. @ Skullmillitia- it's like a giant treasure trove!

Now Roy has a display mate! Man this guy is huge!

Nice find!

Is that the one on ebay? Still one left with free shipping.

I think it was the guy above you that was selling it.

Don't worry, they'll come sooner or later. 2014 should be a good year for you. Nice pickup Dapro! Now you just gotta change your sig. Spartan love jvmacross!

I like this price better. Win-win for everyone!

That's true. I wouldn't buy it either but I don't have the patience to wait for a new release. I bought the M&M set plus the Virgin road (all unopened) prior to finding out the Arcadia info. That's assuming they get the licensing. I don't know japanese so I can't translate exactly what Mr. K said for sure but it would be good for everyone, heck I'd buy another set anyways. I'd guess the Arcadia ones probably be about $250 if it comes with a stand, $220ish without.

Thanks for the edit. Didn't know it was confirmed. Now back on point: Just from the post office.

I think someone from Arcadia was reading this thread. Skullmilitia asked on Mr. K's twitter about a M&M and he said possibly in 2014, working on the licensing.

Thank you. Need some stands (other than trying the Bandai ones with adapters).

Did your question about the display stands go through? It said it didn't translate or something.

True. I wish I knew about all of this before. The only macross items I remembered seeing way back when was the chunky monkeys! Now I gotta pay the price or wait for possible releases from Arcadia.

I know there is a transformable 1/100 scale kit for the VF-5000 so I think it's doable. I don't know if the VF-14 has a tranformable kit or not but that would be a nice addition. I think the VF-3000 is too VF-1 looking (albeit more beefed up) that I would pass on getting it. There was also a VB-3 kit so maybe that could be in the works, I would get one just because it looks very different. I'd laugh if they had some type of whale hunter variants coming out.

I'll contribute to this thread. Just started collecting in September I didn't even know these existed till then. From a kind fellow here : My latest ones;

I wonder if they are planning to do a VF-5000. To bridge the time of the VF-1 to the VF-11. They already did the VF-4 so I'll just have to wait and see.

That one has the fold booster and fast pack included though. Similar on mdrake: http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1391327.html

In Japanese but hopefully you can use google translate. http://www.tamashii.jp/item_brand/dx_chogokin/ Doesn't have GE numbers but you should be able to figure out if it's a renewal or not.

Just got into the collecting thing since August. From what I read around here is Yamato shut down and Arcadiatook over and has some of the mold designs from the different series. They also created a new 1/60 YF-19 to go on sale in April. They are releasing a 1/60 VF-1S Hikaru and Roy DYRL versions that include a display stand and have a 1/60 30th anniversary VF-1J on sale. Bandai has a 1/60 line for Macross Frontier.

The skull leader scheme. If you type bandai then the GE number on google, it'll show what it looks like most of the time.

No,it doesn't meet the criteria. It doesn't have three piece feet and not purple j/k!

I say both new GE number and the word renewal version labeled on the box plus the front box art is different (white background). Here are some other ones. GE-53 =YF-29 Alto, GE-56=VF-171 Alto, GE-58=YF-29 30th, GE-59=VF-171 CF, GE-61=YF-27w/super I know that they aren't renewals, I just listed whatever I could find in case people was wondering what the model numbers that are not renewals are.

That's pretty good. I just got a Max and Milia super set plus virgin road for around $650.

I'm pretty sure it's the same as the VF-25G Renewal version (V2) with different paint scheme and gun. They would have pointed out differences if it was different from the V2, Only one way to find out and that is wait till people get them and start posting their impressions.

My guess for the next one is either the vf-5000 star mirage or vb-3, though I do like the idea of a vf-0d. Back on topic, I like the blue tinted canopy vs clear. I guess I just have to wait till I see the YF-19 in person in its final form to decide if I like it or not.
