Graham Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 Got the YF-19, YF-21 & VF-11B FAST Pack sets already. Graham Quote
IHATEYOU Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Just display customs or on the way...... I think they're customs. they were up on yamato's blog earlier this month. google translation seemed to indicate they were custom jobs http://www.yamato-toys.com/blog/index.php?logid=152 Edited July 28, 2009 by IHATEYOU Quote
Omegablue Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Just display customs or on the way...... http://hk.myblog.yahoo.com/iam-cybergundam/article?mid=29503 I don't think so, as they got other stuff there announced in up coming lines. That stealth is beautiful! Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) VF-1A M&M Arcade ver. please. Clear Blue and Red, and also release them in 1/60 v.2. I've been pineing for this for ages. If it doesn't happen i'll just grab 1A heads and paint them red to suit the M&M Super releases. Edited July 30, 2009 by ruskiiVFaussie Quote

If it doesn't happen i'll just grab 1A heads and paint them red to suit the M&M Super releases. Clear or not (not sure how it would look with the inner parts of the toy design), the arcade version would be a collector's dream. Milk the mold, damn it! Quote
honkhet Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Got the YF-19, YF-21 & VF-11B FAST Pack sets already. Graham pictures please Quote
ff95gj Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 They claim this to be a TV version 1S. However, the arrows on the head are in yellow, not black. That's very disappointing. Quote
Graham Posted July 31, 2009 Author Posted July 31, 2009 Well, the pics show it's supplied with both TV and DYRL type hands. Graham Quote

That's very disappointing. at least its easier to paint yellow arrows into black, but NOT vice versa. you can even just use gundam markers to do the job Quote
Graham Posted July 31, 2009 Author Posted July 31, 2009 Was going to avoid the GNU VF-1 toys, but I'll probably pick up one now, but just the VF-1S I reckon. Not going to collect all the variations, that's what the 1/60 line is for. Graham Quote

Not going to collect all the variations, that's what the 1/60 line is for. Graham Me too, I'm going to grab the VF-1S, but that's it. They are simply too expensive - and not worth the price IMHO - and on top of that, to collect the variations, you need to pay extra for the exclusive ones. Namely the Kakizaki 1A thus far. Quote
Graham Posted July 31, 2009 Author Posted July 31, 2009 Just wondering have you seen them anywhere in HK yet? I haven't, not that I've looked too hard though. Graham Quote
ff95gj Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Just wondering have you seen them anywhere in HK yet? I haven't, not that I've looked too hard though. Graham Saw the VF-1J and the Max/ Kakizaki 1As previously; and I only saw one shop carrying them thus far. Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Getting the 1S Hikaru for sure, although the Roy 1S is tempting. Only want one. Quote
regult Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 I've seen the same Hikaru and Max versions a while back in In's Point, upper floor a corner shop. I honestly still don't think these GNU valks are worth the price tag, and the VF1 is not exactly the "rare" valk we need to have no matter the scale. Even though the VF100s are a bit pricey, at least they transform (partsforming is flawed but the model IS transformable after all). Quote
ruskiiVFaussie Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 Ohh and that's right, what about the Strike/FP's.. i was going to wait for them, come on Yamato, not again. Release them combined. Quote
Guest sh002 Posted July 31, 2009 Posted July 31, 2009 i'd get these if yamato made them a little larger. i wouldn't mind nontransforming mech like the regult or qrau but in 1/100 scale. Quote
ShadowerV2 Posted August 1, 2009 Posted August 1, 2009 Ohh and that's right, what about the Strike/FP's.. i was going to wait for them, come on Yamato, not again. Release them combined. Yeah! Strike pack combos or nothing!! Quote
jenius Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) They come on a blister card now huh? Did they drop the retail price? EDIT - I really hate Yamato's milking sometimes. They've shown pictures of GNUs with fastpacks/strike parts. Why are they now selling the toys without them? So they can double dip later. Weak. Edited October 5, 2009 by jenius Quote
ff95gj Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 They don't have a box for the whole VF-1 line... The yen price is higher than the M+ plain GN-Us but lower than the ones with FAST. Anyhow... the street price is much higher than either. Quote
Graham Posted October 6, 2009 Author Posted October 6, 2009 Still haven't seen these here in Wanchai, but then again, I'm too lazy to get my ass over to Ins Point. My pick up 1 if I find them. Graham Quote

Graham I didn't find it in In's... Even the shop who sold VF-1J and Max 1A didn't have it this time. Neither for the CF 1A. I got mine in Animate of Mongkok. You may try your luck in Causeway Bay Animate! Quote
arrow Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 that sure is one of the perks of living in HK. I wish I could visit more often & get macross goodies. Quote
sidearmsalpha Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 They come on a blister card now huh? Did they drop the retail price? EDIT - I really hate Yamato's milking sometimes. They've shown pictures of GNUs with fastpacks/strike parts. Why are they now selling the toys without them? So they can double dip later. Weak. I would even imagine you would need to replace parts of the VF to accomodate the armor parts, too. Very weak. The wings don't even have missile hard points. I can even see having to replace the wings if they decided to include missiles. I really hate the route they went in designing the arms at the elbows and the backs of the knees look weak with the joint exposed like that. They should have incorporated the ribbed detail that the VF-1's have back there. Quote
GogDog Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Yeah, I might have to stick with Revoltechs for now. Quote
GogDog Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 HLJ has the Mac+ GNUs for sale, so combined with their free EMS shipping deal, I bit. For a little over $10 USD a pop, they're a good deal, and I'm glad that I own them. But no way would I pay over $30 for one. If they keep going on sale, I'll grab as many as I can. I just wish they had thigh swivels. The 11B and the 21 can manage, but the 19 really needs more range of motion, and thigh swivels would help immensely. I also echo the complaints about not including fast packs. Kaiyodo did it. For these prices, it's very lame. Quote
Uxi Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 Picked up these up today for $10 each. Not bad. The legs and feet seem oversized. Quote
arrow Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 I love my GN-U but I hardly touch them as much as the transformable VFs. Quote
