  1. The vf-9 is probably the valk i care about least. Ugliest valk not counting the metal siren.
  2. I would wait on the WiiU. Games systems are usually not worth it in their year of release.
  3. LOL! Well it is under $380 but only by 1 cent...
  4. Good point. Super packs may be crappy if it's not implemented well. I doubt they knew ahead of time to incorporate it in the design unless this release has minor tweaks in the the mould (eg a couple extra attachment points) from the version already released. Could be the reason the super parts don't get sold separately. All conjecture at this point.
  5. Would love a cf vf-25. Saw a custom paint job someone did. Looked awesome. I'm pretty sure the rvf-25 did transform into battloid in one episode, if my memory is correct. The episode in which Sheryl tries to fly Micheal's vf-25g and Luca comes to her rescue(kinda).
  6. Well so much for thinking i'd get a break from buying valks next year. Three new ones to get, all bandai too. Three more times of going through the pre-order madness bs.
  7. You know the hip placement didn't bug me at all until i saw this thread. Now it's annoying the hell out of me. i can't look at it without noticing it now.

    DX VF-25G

    When my vf-171 came to me missing a chest cannon, N-Y contacted bandai. Bandai instead of simply shipping me the part wanted me to ship the vf-171 back to them at my cost. Hopefully they don't do this to you.
  9. Oh ok. I don't think i've ordered from hlj since they changed their website.
  10. That's good news. Too bad they never did that with the yf-29 30th anni edition. Would've liked a discount on that.
  11. I don't recognize that invoice. Where did you buy from?
  12. Under the product info it states: Pre-order, available December 2012 Customers who ordered with the old price will have automatically the new price when sending invoices. Customers who have already paid their preorder are requested to contact us by ema
  13. What i don't understand is why they didn't just make the the front of the head removable and have the Kai's face underneath.
  14. A friend bought me this game for my birthday back on the 14th. Never even knew it existed. I had vague recollections of seeing a game called x-com years ago but knew nothing about it. I though my buddy just got me a first person shooter (i hate those games) and was pleasantly surprised with what i got. This game is pretty sweet. It's hard to find decent turn based squad games.
  15. Thanks. That's a pretty decent price (for this hobby).
  16. Nippon-Yasen is down at the moment. What was the price on the super parts? I'm totally not seeing the skulls on the super parts.
  17. Anyone planning to stick some unused yamato Skull sticker on the tail fins? I'm interested to see how that will look.
  18. Plastic risers?
  19. Ah, good to know. I just started collecting when they were blowing out their old stock and waiting for the new ones to come in. Only got 3 of the black tipped ones. Wish i was able to get more. When you get down to it these stands were a really good idea, a reasonably priced stand that looks good. When you have as many valks as i do (and probably everyone else here) you don't want to spend $50-100 for each stand. I remember when i first bought that Yamato stand back in 2008 i paid $50 (25 for the stand and 25 for shipping) and i though that was crazy. Now that stand is going for like $98 shipped. I'd sooner put that money towards a new valk.
  20. I doubt there will be any updates. the last time Los posted, he stated that the manufacturers were not finding the same issues as us and that the official stance is to not use the stand long term posing. Disappointing. I just wish they would rollback to the black tipped ones. Never had any problems with those. Anyone want to sell me their used ones?
  21. Those are awesome. I'd buy both of those.
  22. So i guess there hasn't been any movement on this issue?
  23. I loved the old version with the black rubber tips and the new ones are garbage. They have taken the paint off my yamato valks (strangely the bandai ones seem unaffected). The new ones also have the tenancy to crack like a poster above stated. Never had that problem with the old versions. The worse thing is how the flightpose people don't acknowledge there is a problem and try to work on a solution. It would be an awesome product if they could fix these issues. Sure beats paying $80 for the yamato stand.
  24. My vf-171ex came from them missing a chest cannon. They will only replace it if i ship it back to them which will cost me $90(my post office's fault, not their's) for some reason. It's hardly worth paying another $90 to get a replacement or my money back. I'm probably going to have to throw it on ebay and hope to try and recoup some of my money lost on it. Sucks.
