Yes i have the same sentiments. Damn i need to get another VF-25F to display both of them with tornado and super pack config
-
Arcadia YF-19 is definitely looks the bit for both fighter and battroid mode in terms of M+ anime accuracy but bandai ver looks more balanced and streamlined especially the nosecone area in battroid mode. All that tampo goodness too!
-
Damn, this is another must get. God help us all!
-
Not good...not good at all for my wallet. A must have this figure!!

Hi bro, thanks alot for the help with the measurements. guess I would go for the shelf height of 37.5 cm as 50cm would be too tall.
-
hi guys, Need abit of help and favour with some measurements. May I check whats the maximum height of a 1/60 vf-25 with super or tornado packs? And whats the height of it when mounted on a stand, with the same super or tornado packs? Thanks Reason im asking all these is due to im building a display cabinet with fixed shelves thus I wish to check if 37cm or 50cm would be a better choice in terms of shelf height. Thanks

Must thank my lucky stars and to MW bros for the tips here, i manage to score my first bandai MF purchase at MSRP from HLJ cos most of the time im only able to get in on the 2nd or 3rd batch of preorders at inflated prices at NY. Guess i wasn't F5ing fast enough or i was stuck doing something or in a meeting when the preorders open. Never did contemplate Ami or HLJ options before cos the speed at which preorders open and close is scary
-
Thanks for the info guys. Sad to say i dun buy much except for macross and some gundam stuff, thus i doubt the warehouse function will do me any good. Anyways its a great feature to have and a devil at one too cos it encourages you to buy more of other stuff haha
-
Thanks to you guys, i manage to secure two pieces of VF-25S for the first time on hlj. *Bows to you* NY can kiss my arse cos i have being F5ing for close to 4 hours Btw do you guys select private warehouse or ship when available as your preferred handling method. Sorry to ask this cos im kinda new to HLJ system
-
ok maybe abit regretting abt cancelling my order at NY after looking at all the pics. should i hunt for one now?
-
Nope for me till i have confirmation that their exploding shoulders are fixed. To be frank i rather have the regular cf ver
-
The same applies to me with having to go the NY route to avoid custom taxes since amiami and hlj declare the full value Sorry to hear abt the issues mommar and kicker, as much as im looking forward to getting mine, i do at the same time feel abit queasy about the isolated issues and am praying and hoping that mine will be free from any issues
-
Man why arcadia didn't tampo print the grey details on the body like the yamato ver?
-
Preorders are up for the tornado parts for vf25f/g at nippon yasan
-
Thats the point of preorders, you place an order early and the retailer gives you a discount off the retail price as part of the early bird special. NY however does the opposite knowing full well that certain hero series and exclusives are limited
-
Secure myself a piece as its only a 10usd difference from retail price. Sorry for saying this but i feel NY could have release both the first, second and third preorders at retail price but decided to play mind games as always to gauge the demand and hike up the prices As of now...19 pcs left
-
46 pieces at the new pre-order price of 19500 yen
-
Yup I did but still not fast enough. Had the item in my cart and selected shipping and when I was about to click next Poof item was no longer available WTF!
-
I don't mind paying retail or slightly inflated prices. The thing with NY is that the preorders numbers and quantities are small and limited for each window. Why can't they just decide on a price then allow the buyers to decide whether to purchase them. It's really crazy having to monitor my mails and status windows trying to secure a piece when I'm shuttling in between meetings
-
NY really passes me off sometimes. What's the point of preorders if you want to jack up the prices!
-
Being thinking of whether to add a vf17s/do and vf19s/d to add to my collection. Should I take the plunge or wait for arcadia to come up with a new and improved ver?
-
Thou shall not see no evil and hear no evil. Im contented with my Alto ver

Just opened my Arcadia VF-1S Roy on Xmas day itself. Everything is great about it and the skull emblems on the tail fins are straight. Hope to see DYRL VF-1S Max, TV VF-1S Roy, VF-1J Hikaru and Max/Millia released sometime in the future as well as VE-1 Elint Seeker and VT-1 Super Ostrich. Anyways Merry Xmas guys and more macross goodies in the year of 2014
-
Chill guys. I think the rationale of raising this issue was to highlight the crooked skull insigna and other small issues which were not captured or addressed with this release and are mostly likely a cause of Factory QC and Manufacturing issues. Afterall this toy have seen several revisions over the past decade and we are paying a slightly higher price for this release thus expectations are slightly higher. That in all, i would say its a pretty good release in terms of improved pilot sculpts, detailed hud, more anime accurate base color as well as the provision of a stand. Anyways have a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year to everyone!
