energon Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Is there anybody here that has all? Are there any pics avaliable that shows them all in one shot, with or without boxes? How many are there? Quote
Scream Man Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 im 3 short. Kakizaki, Angel birds and Hikaru 1J. Quote
EXO Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 http://www.macrossnexus.com/index.php?opti...&Itemid=399 I think those guys are missing some stuff such as the urban GBP and the 25th anniversary VF-1S. Quote

Graham Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I've got the following, except for the ones crossed out, but I've never taken a pic of them all together: - hikaru 1a max 1a kakizaki 1a low viz 1a low viz 2 1a cannon fodder 1a angel birds 1a Hikaru 1j Hikaru 1j/super Max 1j/super Millia 1j/super Stealth 1j Stealth 1j/super Focker 1s Hikaru 1s 25th anniversary 1s GBP GBP urban camo GBP forest camo Super/Strike Pack Stealth Super/Strick Pack Graham Quote
Graham Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 As mentioned in another thread, there is also the 1/48 Credit Card Valk and I think also the Meteor Busters. IIRC, only 3(?) of each were made. Graham Quote
RT junkie Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) I thought I could pull this off, but after getting my camera uploaded to my PC, realized that I was blocking the lowest 2 boxes of the top pillar - the Low Viz 2, and VF-1A Kakizaki, and I've put them all away already. Tough to capture all 20 boxes in one shot, as I was laying on the floor as it was with them stacked on my basement stairs. The second pic shows the partial front and end of the LV2, and the end of the Kakizaki box. Everything should be there except the 25th anniversary 1S which is enroute..... and of course no credit card valk, or meteor busters. Edited January 4, 2008 by RT junkie Quote

Mog Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I shudder in fear to see the updated, wide-angle shots of either kensei's or Godzilla's infamous collections. Quote
Vegas Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 does anybody have pics of that meteor buster valk? Quote
Golden Arms Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) Ditto on what Graham has. My 1/48 collection is the same as well except I didn't get the standalone Hikaru 1J. I kinda wish Yamato would release an all black GBP to complement the stealth or 25th anniversary valks. Edited January 4, 2008 by Golden Arms Quote
jenius Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?show...l=meteor+buster Try clicking that for the Meteor Buster thread Quote
doodler7 Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 so is it safe to say that no one will ever complete their Yamato 1/48 valkyrie collection because of the "black" version is basically/almost impossible to acquire? i'm about to give up now that you guys have brought up the thought, especially with the introduction of the "meteor buster"...oh man, wth? i thought i was cool with acquiring the last of my missing three; the low vis 2 missing, kakizaki and angle...dang. but now...this sucks. maaaan! Quote
jenius Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 People made "credit card valks" out of stripped Stealths if that helps you out. I still think it's wrong to consider the Meteor Buster anything more than a custom even if it is a custom based off of Kawamori's input and given out as a prize by a magazine. Quote
doodler7 Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Hmmm, i guess it'd be cool to say "i got a credit card valkryie"...but the mod stealth vf-1j isn't a bad way to go. Quote
drifand Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Wasn't there an exclusive Hobby Japan or Dengeki Hobby repaint in grey and yellow? I guess that one wouldn't really count... Quote
Godzilla Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I shudder in fear to see the updated, wide-angle shots of either kensei's or Godzilla's infamous collections. I am getting there. But I need more display shelves. Quote
energon Posted January 4, 2008 Author Posted January 4, 2008 I think I am going to try and get them all. Besides the low viz, are there any that are hard to locate? I will get a low viz if I come across one. Quote
do not disturb Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I think I am going to try and get them all. Besides the low viz, are there any that are hard to locate? I will get a low viz if I come across one. if were just talking about 1/48s, outside of the LV1 you mentioned, i'd say the Super VF-1J hikaru as it was only release one time. everything else is readily available from multiple vendors both stateside and overseas.

jenius Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 The Steatlh giftset might get pretty rare also. Quote
do not disturb Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 The Steatlh giftset might get pretty rare also. i forgot about that one but i don't think thats because the valk is cool(theres plenty of them being sold by itself) but more so the dope fast packs. why they haven't re-released them yet is beyond me? Quote

I almost wish I would'nt have sold my Super Stealth now........ehhh.....whatevs.......I needed to and it went to a happy home. Quote
do not disturb Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I almost wish I would'nt have sold my Super Stealth now........ehhh.....whatevs.......I needed to and it went to a happy home. i was thinking of selling mine too but i didn't want to part with the FP's. if yamato re-releases the FP's by itself, i'd definitely sell my stealth giftset.

KiriK Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 my quest for completion is almost done.... never thought i'd shell out the dough for a Low Viz one or for a super M&M's.... but with those 3 purchases... it only makes me 3 away from the complete set.... and i just got a Hikaru 1S so now i just need 2... Kakizaki and CF here i come for 1/48 completeness!!! Quote

doodler7 Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) kiririth, hah hah, i'm like you. i have three more to go: Angel Birds, Kakizaki and Low Viz 2. but...i do not have the vf-1j stealth fast pack gift set and i cannot find it anywhere. sithlord / godzilla, do you guys have any to spare? (worth a shot, heh). Edited January 4, 2008 by doodler7 Quote

Vegas Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 i got three more missing, max-1a hikaru-1a and the 25th anniv . i cannot believe i spent almost $1000 last year for just the low viz1, m&m . shouldve waited. oh well whatever. Quote

jenius Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 LV1 goes for about $300. Really pristine never opened ones can fetch up to $400 but it's been a while since I saw that happen. Quote
Scream Man Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 more than it's worth. i realised i hadnt included the stealth FAST packs or the 25th Anni 1S, I havnt got those either. Quote
Kicker773 Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 LV1 goes for about $300. Really pristine never opened ones can fetch up to $400 but it's been a while since I saw that happen. I'm lucky to have three unopened ones and one extra to play with =) Quote
Vegas Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 What does the Low Vis go for now? about $300 and over Quote
sqidd Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) I have all the ones in black. I didn't realize that I was so close. I may just have to pick a few more up so I can make the claim to have them all.
