Thank goodness... I must be losing interest in the toy threads... this is the first time I've seen this one. [iNSERT sigh of relief smiley here] >EXO<*losing interest in the threads not the toys. man...I hear that...me too....sadly. Love the new icon...nice work!

man oh man...toy isn't even out and we are all up in arms. Honestly, I hear the naysayers...I am not floored by the sculpt, and I certainly would appreciate the scale being 1/72 or 1/60 (heck...the Hase's 1/72! ) But...on the other side I suspect they paid a lot for the license, it's a new sculpt, and they are in a brand new market (this isn't going to catch all the original Macross fans, and in the US the original Robotech fans who with the others might have stumbled on a VF1, crapped, and bought it (like I did years ago)) So...if Yamato makes a nice toy...a decent toy...even at 1/100 scale...if the price is nice too I think it will be fine...and I hope it sells enough to make them want to build a 1/60 version which compares to the 1/48 in quality and fits nicely with my 1/60 toys. (1/48 would be nice too...but thats a big ole' bird)

Great news Irspiff!

Jeepers Creepers...first the SHE VF5000 upgrade now this...Im not doing to well....sorry I just don't think about the competition...Im all about sharing. Regardless...this is the 2nd one I have seen recently..and the first one didn't go to high...I would hope this one will stay low as well. Plus, Gundamheads 1/100 is due out soon from SMT.

LOL, great find Jesse! I didn't see this thread and posted the same link on the auction board...doh! great minds think like me!

Rob to the rescue!!! Thanks MonkeyNugget!! Here is the note Rob sent me...seemed easiest just to post it right in. _______________________________________________________ Hey Jesse, Just got off the phone with Tanmen. He was as always very apologetic. He said he was swamped with work suddenly from Bandai and other companies that is why he is late. The models are almost completed (Closer than before). He WILL mail them off during the time fram of May 18th to the end of the month. I have made the offer to him which will relieve some of his English stress. Something i should have done a long time ago. I told him he can call me directly if there is any more delays or problems so I can keep everyone and you informed. He was very grateful for this and told me that when he mails out the shipment he will call me frist and e-mail you. When he does contact me I will off course e-mail the results to you. This time I do feel confident from the conversationthat he will be sending them out this month. Rob ______________________________________________________ So....here is to hopeing we are nearing the end of this saga. We need to all figure out something we can do to thank Rob for all his hard work and dedication...he's not even on the order! Thanks again Rob...we all owe you BIG TIME!

is that 1/100 or 1/144?

GORGEOUS!!!! I can't for the big finish!

Speak of the devil! This one is at $100 right now with 4 days left...lets see where it ends. Man...I need this for my collection too! LINK

YEAH! Thanks ROB!!!! MonkeyNugget to the rescue...again!

Nothing new to update as of now. I have sent off yet another note to Tanmen asking for a status...sorry...wish I could do more.

wow...here we go again....what a load of BS

It may be worth a lot more...thats just what i saw one sell for.

sweet!

hmm...lets see....nope...I didnt get anything of the original stuff without the help of MW members, Ebay, and Yahoo Japan. ...but I have them all now!

last one I saw on Yahoo Japan went for like $200-$230 range (can't remember exactly)

Congrats Graham! Get sleep now while you can! My brother had his third today...so I had his two kids for a while with my two...wow...4 is a lot!

So, when is th GBP?

very cool indeed!

you are correct...the wf VF11 did not come with armor or solid fuel boosters...otherwise identical. Flying Pika...Yep...definitly.

wow...definitly thanks for the history Gundamhead...Im looking forward to the kit. Got any more you plan on doing or sharing with us? (Please?! )

What I just wanted to make you are aware of all the available club-M kits to ensure your collection is complete enabler!

Neova, The 1/48 21 is very nice....very good quality....and looks really nice next to my 1/48 toys! (can't wait to finish and build it) Grayson...man...thats uncool! to177 - I hear that!

Wow...I didnt know that....I remember seeing that 1/15 Mospeada weaons kit and wished I bought it.
