Would anyone else like to see some of the aircraft from Yukikaze make it to the 1/60 scale? I am not saying model kits, I would like to see Yamato or Bandai actually make a line of fighters. Anybody else interested? What about Area 88 or Ace Combat Fighters?

There are "toys" , most on clearance now on HLJ.

Closest you can get to a 1/60 toy, the 1/100 by Alter

:rolleyes: I would be in heaven!!!

Geez why Alter 1/100 MAVE is taking so long?

What about the endless wait for the 1/72 FFR-31 and FA-27 kits!!! I really think they have just been canceled at this point.

I know it looks so sick

Holy cow. Expensive for the size, but still tempting, considering the insane amount of accessories for it. Bombs with deployable drag fins? Yes please!

Really does irritate me that Yamato can never come up with a stand as elegant as that though. Simple, clean, functional in a variety of poses, and doesn't take up twice the footprint of the plane it's holding. :p

I don't think anything (as of yet) is slated in terms of Macross for September. I put mine on preorder for this. It's too incredibly nice looking. If only it was in a 1/60 scale to match my Valks, I'd have it on display with them. Either way, I'll be swooshing this thing around the house.

Cheeper than HLJ. They only it at 5% saving for pre-order.

And its about time we see these.

Amiami is the cheapest I have seen, but how is shipping with them

I missed out on this release back in the day

and ended buying the 1/144 scale which was way to small this is not bad but could be bigger

About how big is 1/100? (Sorry, don't know the fighter's relative sizes and what-not). Furthermore, I hope those pilots are removable :)

I think I'm gonna put this on pre-order for safety anyways...

Wish I had the spare cash for all this. Some pretty expensive stuff I pre ordered is coming soon, and I can't risk spending any more money.

And like the others, I'm pretty curious as to what size these 1/100 scale planes are.

Back in the day, Bandai used to make 1/100 kit versions in their EX series. dalong is my goto place:

Comparing it to a mg gundam, using the cig pack

s_m111_01.jpg

An mg gundam is about 12-15cm tall. Using the cig pack, looks like the 1/100 Mave is gonna be around 10-12cm long.

I'm mixed about this. While I love how it looks, and the size is larger than expected, the best price of 10000 yen exc shipping is a huge amount of money.

Sorely tempted though!

170 USD for 12cm of plastic?! And it doesn't even transform. My local hobby store has both up for pre order, but there's no way I'm paying that much for so little. The price is just ridiculous.
