    Just snagged one on BBTS. into the pile of loot it goes (eventually). Good thing I'm patient, took them a while to get my WWM VF-25F in there.

    I'm down, the 25 is one of my favorite VFs and I love the matte finish. I am a bit bummed because I was hopeful we'd get a V3 dx VF-25 (or perhaps just an improved V2 / renewal) with 4x hardpoints per wing, including the VF Master file / Macross 30 munitions which I really love. Some sort of "Full set pack" like the YF-19.

    Despite the dumb "WWM" on the wings, I'm down for one. Nice repaint fuel and always happy to pick up another renewal 25. Although I do wish they would make a V3 with wing hardpoints and missiles as seen in macross30 and VF master file.

    I'll be bringing a friend to a showing in northern Virginia. I also might have a spare ticket to give away, so DM me if anyone is interested. On the topic of Macross Plus dub vs sub, the fact that the dub doesn't have (IMO) Kanno's best orchestral piece on the OST, "Dog Fight", means it loses a ton of points in my book. But it is a very well done dub otherwise.

    Check out the raised corners on my copy's backpack hinge cover trapezoid panel. Should I be concerned? Haven't transformed yet.

    Heartbreaking. After 3 years on the display shelf, I was packing up the collection for a move. I barely laid a finger on the HWR monster's port arm and it fell right off at the elbow. Does the monster suffer from G(reen) Plastic Syndrome?

    I figured out why bandai's super parts design hold the gunpod at such a wonky angle. They made the gunpod extra thicc first, without thinking about super parts fighter mode with the landing gear out. If they had given the DX "normal" arm units with a straight gunpod mount, the extra large DX gunpod would impact the ground, and the super valkyrie would be unable to sit on its landing gear. Keep in mind, I'm not defending bandai here at all. It was a dumb decision that I disagree with. Just another tiny nitpick that prevents me from declaring the DX the "ultimate" VF-1 toy over the Yamcadia 1/60 V2. I would say Yamcadia appreciates fighter / battroid 50/50, while Bandai has a clear preference for battroid.

    Man, I've been absolutely giddy for the past 24 hours. Filoni and Favreau have given us the best star wars Christmas present we could have possibly gotten this year. Makes me hopeful we will eventually get disney to split the timelines in something similar to this: (since they will probably never actually decanonize the ST) EU timeline, Filoni timeline, and Kennedy timeline, all with equal canon status, with George's 6 movies being the core of all three. Do it already, disney! It'll let you print more money!

    I'm a lucky guy, surprise early xmas present from my japanese father-in-law! 26 boxes of hatchette, with more on the way. Shame I can't really dig into these for a few months due to space / moving...

    I'm a simple man, I see valks customised after USN / USMC squadrons and I upvote. Great work! Can I ask what your old man did in the RAG?

    Re: Bandai's tail modex fiasco. It's times like these I'm glad I only collect SDF TV and not DYRL...

    Hold up, is calibre wings now free of HG's vile tentacles and partnering with Big West?? If not, can't Big West stop them from selling Macross Zero merch? Interesting, they put a GU-11 on what looks like the centerline. (tankbusting, I guess?) Still wish these things had proper AIM-9 / 54 paint schemes.

    The facepalming chunky Roy at the bottom really elevates this pic to the next level! Also, is Roy the only American in this pic? What country is Max from?

    Daggone, worst pre-order ever, this is the first time I've failed one. Me and the wife had six sites open on two devices, Ami Ami froze, got cartjacked at Amazon.jp, and the other four failed. I literally watched Rakuten instantly go from no order button to sold out between my ~2 second interval refresh clicks. Should have tried Yodobashi, forgot about that one. However, got a small lead on reserving an in-store copy via phone on 1 November... If anyone's interested in my previous (relevant) GIF contribution to this thread, go to my profile and look at my post from June 4, 2019, you won't be disappointed. Was this the first DX since Hikaru's J that had heavy advertising by Bandai? Cant remember if Max A or Hikaru S had that.

    Threw some 1/48 GBU-12s on with blu-tack. More pics on the twitter: https://twitter.com/Aimd_SA/status/1211629156217188352
