fast pack and weapon

[Mommar]

Those packs work a lot better on the VF-4.

No kidding, I need to open up mine but I need to solve my space issue first.

Does that gundam stand hold the vf-4 pretty reliably? I would like to display it the way u have it angled up.

The Gundam stands hold the VF-4 just fine.

Yeah the bandai stand is a great yamato stand replacement along with shapeways " exo's" stand adapter, so your valkyrie doesn't come crashing into your floor. Lol

Hmm.. did anyone else's VF-4 come without the fin under the nose cone?

Took mine out of the box the other day and I noticed there's no fin. Looked around in the plastic packaging and didn't find it loose either, or on the floor or anywhere on the table.

It was ordered from HLJ.. wonder what are the chances they'll get me a replacement?

Thank you..

[erikos0311]

yeah man that stinks!! I've heard many stories like yours. Some orders just come out like that. Your best bet would be to email HLJ and check out the Shapeways store website. Some members here have made replacement fins for the guys that are missing the front lower fin.

good luck buddy

Here's the shapeways replacement fin if you need it: http://www.shapeways.com/model/889830/4fin.html?li=productBox-search

Thanks, CoreyD.

Just got mine today. The engineering is amazing. I love how the chest easily locked in place. In terms of transformation the 19 is more fun.

Isn't it sad that the VF-4G would be Yamato's final sendoff? Like how 2012 Flashback was a final sendoff of the original Macross.

I am sad to see Yamato go. But at least it went out with a BANG!!!

[vf_1s]

I miss Yamato!

light painting mode on vf4g

[Valkyrie addict]

I know you can take better pictures than those. Use better external lighting rather than the camera's flash.

What exactly was your light painting mod?, can't really tell.

[miro79]

light painting means you set up your camera with a loooong exposure and take a picture of your object in the dark.

during exposing time, u "paint" your object with a flashlight or similar..

well......color me stupid, never heard of it, HAHAHAHA

my bad. Good pics then.

[Falconkpd]

Anyone else hoping for an Arcadia reissue like I am?

[zulu]

I hope for those that didn't get one. The cheapest one I've seen on the internet was for $950. That's crazy...thank god I got one when they first came out.

[raptormesh]

There's one for sale at mandarake for 43k yen which is a bout $430. Look there, don't look in ebay...

[anime52k8]

Arcadia should re-issue this, seriously.

[skullmilitia]

They will, it's just the wait on the licensing.

[UN Spacy]

Arcadia should re-issue this, seriously.

How come you missed out on the original run?

[jenius]

Don't reissue, give us a flashback version.

[mechaninac]

Don't reissue, give us a flashback version.

+1

I have changed my mind about the VF-4 and I think that it's the least likeable valkyrie in battroid mode... it looks good in fighter mode though.

[Scyla]

I don't care about the paint scheme. Just give it a different head turret and I'm fine.

Yes, by far. Its looks very 'forced' into a variable mecha IMO. The word GO-BOT keeps coming into my head whenever I see it in its 'battroid' mode.

BUT - if they did a Flashback version I might spring for it and keep it proudly displayed in fighter mode all the time...

[xrentonx]

Love it in all modes, especially fighter, but I need the FB version...I already got two of these.

[ErikElvis]

I dig every mode of the VF-4. Its the one I always seem to look at when I pass the cases.

[anime52k8]

How come you missed out on the original run?

Didn't have the money at the time, was hoping to wait for a reissue or a cheaper second hand one. Then Yamato went out of business and the secondary market price went through the roof. I want one for closer to $400USD shipped.

[Mommar]

I'll take an FB2012 colored version.

[skullmilitia]

Battroid mode is fantastic. Transform the thing and tell me it's not fab.
