Preorder at NY is up at 21000 yen Finally got two but sucks that its the same as those listed by scalper at yahoo.jp auctions. Thanks for those who provided the tips and info
-
Can someone pm me with the valuable piece of info cos I have being trying to get one at NY without any success . Thanks
-
NY is abit slow in his response cos i believe he has to go through a translator to decipher and craft out his response It kinda suck to hear about the 25F which you ordered and paid for cos NY service has always being top notched. I was thinking of splurging on a 25F and 25S but holding back cos the price for each now is equivalent to almost two at retail price. Hope bandai reissues them soon
-
Woah didnt know that the VF-25F is available locally, guess i have being too long out of the toy and macross collection scene. Will consider checking them out or wait for the re-release Erm i would try but whether he wishes to do me this and MW a favor, remains to be seen Nice to meet a fellow collector from SG
-
Think its rather difficult cos the VF-25F and VF-25S quantities when first released were already very limited, even he manages to get some, i think he will priced it according to the market prices given that he is a businessman. One good example is the VF-25G whom price has increased, probably an indication that either the add ons are coming soon or RVF-25 might soon be made available
-
Erm i will try to but no promises cos he does not own me any favors but will ask him to give a headsup on the preorder for RVF-25

Crazy Collection kicker!
-
Yups, i just talked with the owner Takuya of NY, he told me he is able to get more stocks for the VF-171EX Regular version thus preorders are still opened. I ordered two for myself. Whew! An expensive month for me, YF-29, VF-171EX Alto and Armor parts and now, 2 sets of VF-171EX Regular version
-
Just gave into temptation, and got a VF-171EX plus armor parts and YF-29, after a long hiatus from macross collection Will be getting VF-25G and super, armor parts for the VF-25F and VF-25S next month
-
Love the fact that all the critical and load bearing points are diecast, which elimates the possibility of breakages while transformation or mishandling. Are such diecast parts seen in the M7 line? Pardon me for being a noob as i have being away from the macross collection scene for a long time Cheers

hi guys, its being awhile since i stop collecting macross stuff due to family commitments. Have recently begun my interest in macross releases again but guess i was late to the game as i found that most of the variants i wanted were sold out...like 1/60 VF-25f alto custom (renewal ver), 1/60 vf-25s ozama custom (renewal ver) and the ever elusive 1/60 yf-29 durandai. Not sure whats bandai intention is limiting the quantities of these valks when they are such a popular item. Same goes for the metal build gundam series
-
Something new from yamato..low vis VF-1S or TV VF-1S?
-
sighs the dilemma and struggle inside. I love all of them, VF-1J, VF-1A TV ver, VF-1S, but if really im tight on budget..would only get VF-1J and VF-1A TV ver
-
Wun know till the reissue Roy and newly released Hikaru comes this to our shores next week. Doubt there would be anyimprovements/modifications done cos graham did mentioned that only recently Yamato QC is looking at the possibility of modding the shoulder hinge joints and material. Maybe just extra care and procedures taken during assembly to minimise should hinge breakages
-
Hi Exo and guys, Just a suggestion, Hope you dun mind. Maybe we should consolidate the releases under different sub titles like: 1) 1/60 Ver 2 VF-1S Variants 2) 1/60 Ver 2 VF-1A Variants 3) 1/60 Ver 2 VF-1J Variants 4) 1/50 Ver 2 VF-1 Other Variants This is due to the fact that we would be seeing multiple repaints for different valks, thus it would be illogical to have one thread opened for each VF-1 variant.
-
The ultimate and most complex paint scheme/tampo job would defintely have to be a Minmay Guard or Minmay Paris Moon Act.
-
Yes without a doubt..one of my fav designs
-
Another hopeful thought..which im sure many would be interested in..a TV QRau
-
After the VF-11B, would we see a VF-11C next or a raven scheme ver? Sidetrack abit, would love for yamato to do a YF-19 in Super Nova Scheme or Excalibur ver but dunnoe whether has that idea died off as it would be a waste for Yamato to not fully utlize the molds for it
-
VF-1A Max TV ver..Lovely! A must get for me..wonders if yamato would do the VF-1A Kazakai ..guess it would an inevitable decision. This year is looking good for macross fans, would rather get this than the Bandai DX versions

Official Bandai 1/60 Scale DX Toy Thread Ver.2
recon replied to Graham's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I can say im pretty much disappointed with the overall design of the DX series, would have loved to get the Alto and Ozama version but the amputated landing gears, drooping fuselage, wrong placement of hips and extended ankles sort of deters me from getting one. The worst is the landing gears..sighs -
Bandai 1/60 DX VF-25 transformable toy thread
recon replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
It still looks ughh..for the DX 1/60 series no matter what angle in battroid, the only thing that is of consolation is the fighter/gerwalk. Sighs battroid mode is one of my favourite..but the looks of the crotch..Alto's Omega pants is kinda of putting me off. Think i would get the 1/72 model kits instead and wait till there is a better product in the near future i hope -

recon replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics

Bandai 1/60 DX VF-25 transformable toy thread
recon replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Sighs the legs (omega thunder pants syndrome), arms (eva syndrome), feet ( mcdonalds foot syndrome), extended shoulders, non articulated hands, non clear lens visor, sort of puts me off. The prototype pics as much as it shows a considerable amount of detail in the sculpt, leaves much to be desire, reminds me of the 1/72 YF-21 sculpt. Really wished bandai would have adopted the 1/72 VF-25 design for the 1/60 version. Oh well, i shall be contended with what yamato has to offer in the meantime
