It's time to grow my collection, but I'm agonizing over what to pick up next. I'd love input from the forums to help guide the purchase.
My options:
Brera's VF-27 + Super Parts. This is the least expensive option. I'd like to finish out my collection of MacF Valks at some point.
Isamu's VF-19 Adv. This is middling expensive. It looks sweet, and I saw Macross Plus when it appeared in the U.S. somehow. It will fit in well with my VF-25s (thanks to its super parts), while being a total throwback to Macross Plus. Also, I don't have any VF-19s.
A YF-29:
Alto's--Nope. Not enough money in the bank account this week.
Ozma's--Right at the upper limit of what I can afford.
Roy's--Doable. I can get this one plus the super parts for about what I'll pay for Ozma's.
Isamu's--Easy. Cheap. I'll have to hunt a bit for super parts.
Rod's--The cheapest option. But no super parts. I really like Rod's paint scheme.
I love the fact that Valks come with add-on packs. I've gone out of my way to obtain the Yamato Super Parts and Armored Parts for my VF-1S and VF-1J. I have super parts for my RVF-25, Armored Parts for my VF-25F, Tornado Parts for my VF-25G, and Ozma's flying a naked VF-25S. The way they integrate with the figures pleases that part of my brain that likes good design.
Sell me on the virtues of the various options. Help me, Macross World Forums, you're my only hope!
