just got confirmation that my 2 1Ds have been purchased... just need to wait for it to be hand delivered from HK... @logos - wouldn't it be great if you ordered that replacement part for the cover and they gave you the whole detachable fuselage/cockpit part (just like ordering the shoulder hinge and getting the whole arm w/ it)... you can have the 1S w/ the 1D fuselage/cockpit on it's arm w/out having to get it from your 1D...

so the April re-issue/re-stock of the 25F will be able to accommodate the armor pack as well?

yeah, i think the TV SPs will definitely look better on the 1D.

nice, fast work there ff...

hope Alto's SP will be sold as regular item... +1 on the glad i waited for 25S Armored...

LOL... WTF is that poor thing in the back (circled in red)...

all these pics of the new 1D are really making me antsy about getting mine! ... 10 more days to go, arghhhh!

@vostok... thanks for the pics and the mini review... can't wait to get mine, w/c is 2 weeks from now... i'll drool over your pics in the meantime... i'll proly put a li'l bluetack on minmay's ass to make her sit still in her seat...

you forgot the longer and better looking front landing gears in that pic... but they're dettachable... aren't they?

anybody who has money (to spend on "toys") cannot possibly be a "financial idiot"... if you're financially secure, you must be doing something right even if you don't understand what it is you're doing

yeah... if one v.2 VF-1 is approx. $100, then just cross out 5 or 6 on your to buy list and get the SDF-1 instead...

tried to translate that w/ babel fish... i think they were saying that the plastic seemed "crispy" ... and wtf does "Lebanon" have to do w/ anything??? knife looks cool... luminous? wouldn't it suck if the 1/100 Ozma doesn't have bendy head lasers...

Zentraedi pickle ships! now that's funny ...somebody was drowning w/ that other joke in the other thread...

...or lower...

fragile... hhmmm... smells like a YamatovsBandai plastic debate in the offing... ...anybody care to translate the review? Babel Fish doesn't really help much.

Graham mentioned that the v2 VF-1's after the VF-1D will have a thinner pin for the shoulder hinge... you might want to wait and get those instead... EDIT - if you want to get a 0S, make sure its the latest (Dec '08) re-issue... you can tell by the extra padding (bubble wrap and cardboard) at the back of the valk to prevent bent tailfins... i've had a chance to handle a floppy 0S and the new one is tight, almost as tight as the new v.2 VF-1's.

QFT... now that is the way a CC should be used... took me 3+ years (and lots of fights ) to convince my wife ...

no cracks yet on mine w/c i got just last year... but i did loosen the screw w/c is on the right side of the neck to relieve the stress it was putting on the plastic w/c might have caused the crack on melbin's 19...

knowing Roy... he would have his seat pulled all the way back so his lady can sit (ass or face, whatever) on his lap!

COOL! love maz ... hope they make the scrander for the toy just like in that 2nd pic...

great news!

most probably a case of an over-tightened screw... when i first saw jester's cracked 19 i checked on mine and saw some stress on the plastic exactly where his cracked... i just disassembled the right leg to access the screw and loosen it up a bit and the stress on the plastic was gone almost immediately.

LMFAO!!!!

how big?..... no, how much???? i'm really glad i backed-out from getting the Wave one at the last second... this is just WOW! ... screw the budget... i want one!
