i think this is a case of jacking up the price before putting in on 50% off sale...
EMS from HLJ for the VF-27 is just 2800 JPY... and the box, at 36 x 27 x 8 cm is just a little taller than the Alto or Ozma standalone while the width and depth are just about the same.
looks nice in fighter and gerwalk. looks like a brick in battroid ... also wondering about paint/tampo app.
box size looks just about the same as the Alto or Ozma standalone (width & depth-wise) just a little taller (~5cm).
i want one too... and yeah, in light gray. the bright white seems more prone to yellowing w/c will be accentuated by Focker's yellow stripes.
man, all this Fuocker talk...
yay! VF-17D FTW!
hate Basara, but love red robots, so i'll probably get the Kai. good thing i can still cancel my Hi-metal order.
not a big fan of M7, but these new mold valks will be a good reprieve from VF-1 withdrawal syndrome...

EDIT - there are loads of transformation vids on youtube.
RD or DX, just as long as it's a regular release and not a web exclusive.
btw, the Nirvash is the Spec 1... that Trapar wave stand support for its board looks cool...
this had been sold out at amiami since late Jan... i just inquired if they would have re-stocks, and then viola!
too good to pass up w/ amiami's Feb. 50% off on shipping.
reissues. new production run most probably since it's on preorder. and someone mentioned that the last reissue of the VF-0S was a little less whiter (more off-white or dirty white).
if the Dec. '08 VF-0S reissue is any indication, these'll be all fixed up and tight... not as tight as the v.2 VF-1 but not floppy at all... i'm very happy w/ the reissue VF-0S i got last year. but my Shin 0A has been in fighter mode and will remain so forever (i did check the shoulders and they seem to be perfectly fine, no stress marks or crakcs... whew )
nice catch!... between the good reviews the DX Mac-Q has been getting and the improvements on the upcoming VF-27, a DX Koenig would seem like an awesome prospect...
if you're a stickler for your figs being in scale w/ each other, then you're not gonna like these... hehe
Unicorn is just about as tall as 00... Exia and 0 Gundam are a little bit taller. Crossbones not shorter than the others as they should be. and it seems like the V2 and the F91 won't be in scale too...
good thing for me i'm not too fussy about scale, exact anime accuracy and whatnot... just as long as my figs are free of any defects.
