The head lasers on my VF-25s seem to be pretty loose. Like the ball in the ball joint is loose. They really move around easily. I can still position them but they get knocked out of place very easily even in fighter mode. Tried removing them and putting them back in but that didn't help. Anyone else have this issue?
-
That is utter BS that you guys are being charged the 2.9% fee. I would try to dispute this through CC. I guess it's probably too late for paypal to do anything.
-
A 2.9% fee? What a load of crap.
-
It's nice to finally have all 4 main vf-25s displayed together.
-
I think the yf-29 is one of the most solid valks i've ever owned. The transformation is fun and not frustrating. Locks together pretty good. The only knock is the Bandai joints gets loose issue. Never thought i'd love this valk as much as i do when i first saw that black out silhouette when it was first announced.

I think the frontier style fast packs look sexy on the vf-19 in fighter mode. Too bad they couldn't find a great spot to put them in battroid. I was always was disappointed by the original fast packs for for the YF-19. Too low key for my tastes. I wanted big booster on there like the VF-1. That being said the M7 fast packs for the vf-19 are ugly as hell. I'm not sad Yamato/arcadia never made them.

I over compensated for this release. Since Bandai made us wait so long to reissue it i was determined to buy as many as i could afford. The sad thing is i actually got one during the first release. As it got quickly scarce and prices started rising i got super paranoid about breaking it so i never opened it. I wanted a second one to play with as a fall back.
-
But is it a prototype for the renewal vf-25 dx? JK
-
So with Play-Asia, they are charging credit cards even though they don't have any stock and not sure they will be getting stock? Makes me glad that my cc got declined. I ended up getting my 3 anyway. I just ordered from them as a backup and a WTH since they're preorder window was open for so long. I sent an email to cancel my order.

I don't know how'd I feel about a bandai VF-1. I'd have to see how it turned out. The recent models they released were goofy looking. Also the Yamato/Arcadia version is pretty close to perfect to me.
-
The lack of intake warnings on the yf-19 is a huge disapointment and a step backword for Arcadia. Especially for the price they are charging for it.
-
I don't recall there being yf-19 hi-metal. Ae we talking about the embarks force VF-19?
-
From what I understand it's not really voyagers fault. Their decisions are mandated by BV. For example voyager wanted to release the remastered DVDs for the original series but BV said no. Which is why we got stuck with VHS transfer DVDs that are horrible quality.
-
That's interesting. I always assumed that Isamu ended up in the SMS was because he was discharged from the military for stealing the YF-19 (kinda like Kou from Gundam 0083). Saving everyone from Sharon Apple was the only thing that kept him from going to jail.
-
What was the Barton line? Totally missed it.
-
That's the guess based on their pricing structure we've seen with the frontier Valks. We won't know for sure until they release the price. Though Bandai has a lot of wiggle room to price under Arcadia's yf-19.
-
Wow this is unexpected. This is great news for collectors who are being priced out of the hobby by recent Arcadia prices. Arcadia is lucky they got their yf-19 out earlier this year. If they were released closer together it might of killed Arcadia's sales. So it looks like anything that appeared in frontier is fair game for Bandai to make. There was a VF-1 in one of the movies wasn't there . It looks those parts are actually part of the shoulder and don't come off?
-
Is this just for USA or does Canada get to piggyback?
-
Awesome. An affordable stand. At least it doesn't cost 50+ dollers.
-
The pink monster. A name just as fun as the pink pecker. Lol.
-
Also is it being re-released at the same price it was originally released at?
-
Does this have renewal valk quality or the same quality of v1 valks?
-
HLJ just filled my VF-25F Order. I'm sure they'll get to you soon Mickyg.
-
The Black one is up on BBTS. Frickin expensive though.

I actually found this to be the trend with early 90s mecha shows starting with Macross 2. They would speed up the action scenes so you couldnt tell what was going on unless you freeze framed through the scene. I remember when i first watched Mac 2, i was frustrated that i couldnt get a clear look at the new valkyrie.
