Super parts/ ghosts set would be awesome.

So purdy! Not my pics, received shipping notification from HLJ as well. That was a lot better than last month's order

The QF-2200D-A would look good with the A.

A is Blue/ light grey. B is grey.

I think the V1 is on the left and the newer one on the right:

Is rakuten domestic only or do they ship internationally? Found this shop:

That thing is hella expensive. It's a subscription based thing. More details here http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=42124 you could do it cheaper I think.

Make it like this opening for the game ( forward to 0:46 if you want):

I don't know Japanese. It's my Google -Fu. Translators are welcome to put a more accurate version. Just read the translation and could sorta figure out some stuff. Basically costs are higher because labor costs where they are being produced are rising, development and tooling, salaries for personnel, smaller company, product run size which most of us would guess could contribute to the rise. Also, he said because of the transformations there are a lot of parts, which means there are more tooling required for more molds. Parts scrap/failure rates from the factory and some more blah blah blah...

Edit: Big in Japan 29580yen

His blog in the arcadia staff blog is up. It's rather long but interesting. Also, interesting to see that discount is reduced across all retailers. It's suggested retail is the same as the 0A. $15 bucks difference ain't gonna phase me.

Pre-orders starting 8/28?!

From Arcadia's twitter:

Thank you for waiting everyone you! Tomorrow August 28 from (Friday), "1/60 Perfect Transform VF-0S Phoenix" is scheduled to start booking! Blog "Why? Arcadia's toys are high?" That we mecha responsible "Mr. K" wrote the end of the anguish this time also will be released! Look forward to!

Yup, avocado ice cream does exist. Never tried it yet though.

Cool! Especially the creepy eye thing following me around the room.

I don't have Max VF1 and VF19, so here is 5 shades of blue ....

I actually cam into this thread to ask about which is the more accurate shade of blue on this guy. Is it really the brighter blue? Does anybody have any pics next to the VF-25G Michael?

You can use those as reference but hard to judge it unless you see it in hand. It's a darker blue.

Gracias Cap'n. One last question do we need to specify variant, such as I want a Hoquet/Rook version or will the head option parts for each come with each kit?

I think he mentioned that it will have all 3.

Look up 16 20 posts. That's what they should use j/k .

Edit: Haha. I type too slow and don't know how to count backwards. What the heck was I doing?

Just needs some glowing feathers in the boxart. Now to make some space for more boxes.

Edit: In keeping with the theme. Roy's box art should be:

Beautiful!

Yes, the large space is great. Since I have been working from home the past few years, a larger office area was a requirement when looking for a new house. The house is a 2 level split, and my office is in the "second" basement. Keeps me nice and isolated to get work done busy valk swishing.

Fixed it for you. Wish I could have a basement. Space is a premium here.

I went to ikea today to get some shelves I've wanted since moving into the new house. I original wanted 2 in a row butted up right next to each other, but they didn't sit perfectly flush, and it was bugging the hell out of me. I decided to stagger them, which means I now have a few holes to patch up. Came out nice. I am still re-arranging figures, but this is ending up better than I had thought. Bonus half-assed panorama of office, and pic of my workstation.

Very nice! So J of all that space! I like that area on the U shape dedicated to "product sampling" er... I mean valk swishing! It's also got 2 chairs to share in the fun!

Looking very nice!

I usually try rocking it in place the first couple of times for that very reason.

I would also love to make transforming toys, my Macross Zero project can be transforming though, I'm trying to figure how to do it!

I'm thinking 1/60 Monster with transforming grab hands. No?

I love that SV-51 in gerwalk! So intimidating!

Are you talking about me.

Well, what can I do.

A new promise that he will either ship or refund by October, which is 2 years after my payment.

May be you can place an order suggest payment after receive. Or a small deposit. Via paypal with insurance for sure.

You sir, have my respect for being very patient. I hope your order goes through as I would like to see your finished build of this.
