Price Check: 1/48 Vf-1j Max W/fastpacks

[CdnShockwave]

A friend of mine's looking at buying a 1/48 VF-1J Max w/fastpacks for around $290 U.S. Is that an alright price? It's been a while since I've seen one on e-bay so I'm not sure what they're going for these days. Any help would be most appriciated. Thanks!

[Macross73]

No.

At some point in the futre its gonna be re-released.

I wouldn't do it.

best of luck

[Vermillion21]

I hope you're right and it DOES get re-issued!!!

[Macross73]

I'm hoping too. it just seems to me that since

their offering so many Vf-1 valks right now

that chances are pretty good that it will be

offered again in the future. Theres no guarantee

of this. i certainly dont have the inside scoop, but

if they do offer it they may offer it with the fast packs

and then offer it again w/o the packs. They did it with

the VF1j stealth so why not. I'd probably only get it as long

as it came with packs but since I really want this no

matter what happens i'll end up getting it.

and if they'd offer Milia again that would make my day.

Anyone know Yamato will re-issue low vis VF-1a, VF1J Max and Milla with fast pack in future???

Someone spent at least $350 for it on ebay.

Since we are dealing with the sceondary market at the moment.

Without any confirmation of a rerelease I would it say it would be worth whatever you are willing to pay for it. Or how much the seller wants for it.

[kensei]

Yeah, wait for it. everyone said that the VF-1S Roy or the VF-1A Max wouldn't get rereleased again and look what happened.

I used to get a VF-1J deluxe for $165 USD before shipping. it's worth the wait with savings. I'm sure you have other things that you would like to buy.

Just hurts waiting that's all.

tis why 1/55's are my passion.. they are done for now. I still have to ask questions often as stuff i didn't know existed cropped up [a spanish printed bandai 1/55] . But yammie is way boyond me. I scored the m+ stuff eventually and the 18a yammie is my favorite toy next to the 1/55 but the 1/48 escapes me. I have a hikkie _ gbp + f/p and a stealth with /fp and thats it. I am still tyying to complete my 1/55 colection.

I worry because I do want a max and milla f/p set of 1/48's at some point in the future. If they are increasing in value faster then my army of jetfires I feel kinda stupid

what about that max and milla marriage set??? The one I saw was a 1/55 custom by a member waaaaaaaay back when, but if yammie did that .

$290 is a great price considering that the last three Max VF-1J's on ebay were close to $350. The one VF-1J Max before this was $338 without the box yet in the US.

My biggest concern was not the cost but that I was dealing outside the US, Canada, Japan and MacrossWorld.

If the Max and Millia VF-1J are reissued, I believe they will be like the Hikaru VF-1J re-issues and not have the armor. I was lucky enough to get two out of three but had to take a hit on the Max. I have a Toynami Battlecry Max that will be replaced by the Yamato.

I was wrong about Kakizaki DYRL VF-1A, thankfully so, but who knows.

[Godzilla]

LV1 was a limited edition, so I *doubt* they will re-release. As for the others, you might have to ask Graham here but I dont think he will tell. I am sure he was ready to explode on spilling the Angel, Kakazaki, and the re-release of the DYRL Max but he cant since he will not get more info if he does spill it before the announcement. I mean who knew the 1/60 YF-19 was coming?

Oh yeah, no I wouldnt buy it for that much. The ebay price is ridiculous as well.

[Skull-1]

The finest of the lot. My absolute dream Valk.

HI all,

Check your PM's, $$220 shipped to your friends door!

[kensei]

That's a deal man...that's a deal!

That person is going to be pissed if Yamato re-issues it ....

[ychanus]

At least he can enjoy it NOW, there is a price when a person want an item now. Even if they reissue it, the exchange rate will make it around 200 dollars. You won't find any $160 with fast pack set no more. If I want it badly, $300 isn't too bad of a price as who know if they're going reissue it and when they actually do, may be I wont have time to play toys anymore or enjoy it as much as right now.

But if you wait long enough, you might even see 1/48 version 2.0...

I heard (A RUMOR! dont take my word for it... yet!) that the M&Ms were gonna be rereleased sans FPs.

I Hope they do come with Fast Packs. That's what makes them so sweet.

[ghostryder]

That would be a huge mistake to reissue w/out FPs . That Love Drifts Away scene where they were back-to-back firing off a gazillion micro missiles is classic.

Ching ching, I have 4 spare FPs, I might get a sale on them if I do this.
