Wow! Awesome collection! And here I thought I was bad with just Macross stuff. Envy all of you who can collect multiple toy lines.

The TV version VF-1J Hikaru gets a new head sculpt, white visor vs grey, filler pieces for battroid mode, small wings for battroid, tinted canopy, different red color(?), different painted chest stripes, TV hands and maybe some other things that I forgot. You can take a look at these links to compare:

Great podcast again on episode 21. With episode 22 coming up, I wonder if this was the calm before the storm action wise?

Do we know what the next hi metal valk will be and when available?

MUST GET!!! My daughter would love it!

I think JetJockey agrees with the name PlaMax which is what I intend to do with them when Walkures come out?

Just picked up my Monster. What's this part for anyway?

Aiming sight camera

Thanks. I got it now. TV colored articulated hands. Lemme see if I got some extras laying around.

Were there articulated TV hands? I only see the fixed pose and closed fists ones.

NY has a shipping calculator on the right hand side. It's the green button labeled "shipping calculator" below the red "cart" button. If you created an account, you can log in then add the item to the cart, then click the shipping calculator, input your country and then state then it'll display all available shipping options with the estimated shipping price. Hope that helps.

Looks kinda like a VF-31A or Moon Shooter scheme:

The 3 laser head variant.

This guy did a custom based on the Sword Dancer:

I can see something like that being issued after the CF out of nowhere. Like the Maruyama VF-171EX. I'll check back in 3 years to see if it happened.

1 case of 32pcs for 25600yen so 800yen each is that correct? Also, is it random prizes for the case? If not, I'd be in for a group buy.

Edit: Also, is that chart the target demographics? Female on the left/Male on the right with the age range in the middle?

No particular order:

1. SDP-1

2. VF-0B

3. VA-3

4. VF-14

5. VF_2SS SAP

6. VF-25E

7. VF-27

8. YF-19

9. VF-31E

10. VA-1SS

That's for Nexx's gunpod. The Fairy and standalone SAP doesn't have anything. They all share the same packing tray. Pg 62 and 63 has pics of the tray layout's for Fairy and Nexx.

Edit: Correction, the standalone has a grey gunpod vs the black one. Thank you Sandman for pointing that out. (I probably went "meh" then threw it back in the box and forgot about it)

Yup. Walkure outfit and flightsuit Mirage, beach outfits everyone, and Valkyrie armored Walkure!

I like the SDCC excluaive color matched packs versus the regular color ones up for preorder at BBTS.

Enjoy!

Exactly how I feel when I look at your pics Saburo.

Where are these expected to be released?

I'm checking every day all mecha shops I know just in case they come out.

Probably don't need to keep checking yet .The release date is not known yet. Just keep looking here for the info when it's eventually announced http://arcadia.ac/. Welcome to the forums!

Not to conflict with any of Bandai's upcoming Macross releases, I hope there is a preorder for a Destroid in October for a January release.

Yup

And I hope its the freakin Spartan or Phalanx and not the two we ALWAYS seem to get! Come on Bandai! You're on a roll! Keep it up!

+1

Thank you guys, you all get 100 nerd points.

I used the beautiful 1/72 Hasegawa kit, great detail and dirt cheap.

Any ideas for a WWII TIE fighter?

Blohm & Voss BV141 would make a cool TIE Bomber

Just got the Hi Metal and just for fun here is a pic with the 1/72nd.

I like some of the stuff they did, their interpretation of it, if i ever do a 1/60 or a 1/48 I would want to take some inspiration from this Hi Metal one for sure.

HO scale maybe? I got one of Mike's 1/72 Monstar's and it's definitely bigger than this one.

Edit: Sorry, didn't see the thread in the model section with the monstar.
