misterryno Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Hey all, I have seen these a few times (the Max Version only once)...but I am curious of how much people would pay for these, seperetly? I would not mind picking them up myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do not disturb Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 considering the initial release of the q-rau was $120 or so, the prices on these aren't so bad... http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?s...op=1&fsoo=1 and yeah i paid like $120 shipped for mine and let me tell you, this toy is NOT worth $120 even if its the only q-rau toy out there.

I just picked up a Milia for about that much, and was quite pleased with it. It's not the most articulated figure in the world, but I think its more of a design flaw than anything wrong with this toy. My only complaint was that the missile launchers on the sides of the knees do not open and close like the shoulder ones. It's a really sturdy chunk of plastic and feels more like a Bandai DX Gundam in my hands than a Yamato toy, which I have come to expect to have lots of light and fragile parts. The pilot figure is ass though, so I recommend picking up the CMs versions if you care about these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
do not disturb Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 i dunno but $120 for a sort of poseable toy that doesn't do much of anything isn't really worth $120 considering the other yamato releases have tons of features and accessories. to each his own i guess.

UN Spacy Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Ouch. Steep prices for the Q-Rau. I think I only paid about $45 for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I *Think* I paid $55 for Milia and I received Max as a gift but I think it was like $80 at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I think I paid about $70 for my Milia Rau. $120 was far too high a sticker price. It is a cool toy but really overpriced. I was fine paying $70 and do not regret it. The Max is very hard to find now and people are asking a fortune for him so good luck on that! I wish I had one though.

ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I was thinking of modding the legs to be more poseable, but that'd take me a while. And if you have a Revy Revoltech figure, this Q-Rau comes more to life. You would need to get the Millia 3 piece figure set otherwise as the figure that comes with it is crappy.

miriya Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 yeah, the 3 piece Milia set is worth getting regardless. If you like the character you will like the figures. I saw one up on ebay last week for $15 buy it now plus $20 shipping and almost got it even though I already have one. It would be nice to use for mods. I may still get that actually. I can never have enough Milia!!! I need to find myslef a nice Milia Cosplay hottie to hook up with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Did any of you see this stealth Rau on ebay? Item number: 150187929358 It looks quite nice. I would bid on it if my funds were not tied up in other Yamato figures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 A Low-vis 1 would have been more interesting. Black looks good of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miriya Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I think that the Rau would lend itself nicely to some graphiti style paint jobs. A ghetto space bird! I am almost tempted to get an extra one and have some graphiti artists have a go on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterryno Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 Whoa......I missed a few of these....LOL.....I was so bushwacked from gettin blitzed last night that I needed a nap with the wife LOL.........So time to catch up.... I think this fig is like way cool....I would spend the 50 bones on one for sure but no more, and in order to have max as well I would need to spend more.

RDClip Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 The Millia Q-Rau was one of my first macross toys and i still consider it one of my favorites. You cant really expect it to do anything amazing posability-wise (it didnt do any crazy poses in the movie anyway) but if you can attach it to a stand (dunno if it connects to the Yamato one) you can probably get some nice anime-accurate poses. The going rate for the millia (on ebay) is usually somewhere between 60-80. Max is way higher. As for the CM set, they really compliment the Q-Rau. But it seems on all of them the paint seems faded on the upper boot area, i thought i got a lemon but based on the picture it seems they are all like that (just an observation) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sh002 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 the 1/60 max q-rau is expensive while the milia can still be found for an ok but not the best price. glad i got both a while back. it took some time to find the max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 You are correct. I do not have that photo. Please do post it here and enlighten us all with the beautiful image. Thanks.... EDIT: I am not being facetious. I really do want to see it. Thanks... I'm too lazy to find the actual pic where she's holding a bottle (ala a Corona girl shirt). But here's a link to a small reference pic (along with the absolutely awesome work Ryuji did to make this into a model kit): Link (first attachment in first post).
