skullmilitia Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 They can't really do a renewal version of something that they never released in the first place. Lol, maybe he means the Tak/Bandai mold. Quote
grymg Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Out on vacation for a week, so had all my mail on vacation hold. Had a lot waiting for me including finally a VF-25F renewal! Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Out on vacation for a week, so had all my mail on vacation hold. Had a lot waiting for me including finally a VF-25F renewal! Nice! I already have the Takara Soundwave and 5 cassettes but I wanted the Hasbro one for the yellow eyes and of course the price. He was all sold out at SDCC. My second VF-25F from HLJ came in the same time my VF-27 did. Not sure if I should open it up to check for QC issues. Edited August 17, 2013 by OzmaLee74 Quote
Scream Man Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 That is a haul full of excellent toys sir! Quote
leoganx Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 I really would like an ozma reissue and a koning monster preferably the sheryl one Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Wonder if they'll have any surprises for 2014? Maybe a DX Macross Galaxy? They've got to have something apart from the yf-30. Quote
Scyla Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Well there was the S.H.Monsterarts Vajra that they presented at a Tamashii Nations event last year together with the RVF-25. Since then it was pretty quiet so many board members think this release is dead. Maybe Bandai surprises us with something new when the next event is held. Maybe a YF-30 prototype which would be sweet. I'm getting tired of the transformation scheme from the Frontier Valks. Quote
cypherxv Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 They can't really do a renewal version of something that they never released in the first place. Ah, I did not know. Still I I'd like whoever released the sdf1 to rerelease it. Quote
skullmilitia Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Moving in to off topic territory, I'm expecting the Next big announcent to be a DX VF-1S. But that's assuming, and yeah the 25' is starting to become A little stale. There just isn't enough magic to it. Quote

But that's assuming, and yeah the 25' is starting to become A little stale. There just isn't enough magic to it. We've just had time to get used to the 25s...I personally love the design and I'm usually quick to move onto the next thing etc...but yeah Bandai probably will pull something out of its butt, just like the left field 171 alto they sprung on us... Quote
skullmilitia Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 Well they would be stupid not to milk molds and hit us with More variants like the RVF-171 and maybe one non-show scheme. After the 25A release, it's gonna be a shot in the dark outside of More reissues and armor/weapons renewals. I'd love the 25S to be reissued with a scaled version Of Ozma's Lancia. Quote
jenius Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 Cool thought (Ozma's Lancia) but that might require something stupid like another license to pay. I'd be fine with a straight up 25S reissue and an Ozma YF-29. Quote
xrentonx Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 I would honestly pay a little more for an in scale Lancia in Ozma's scheme to roll around next to the Valk Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 I'm hoping for michaels tornado parts. The overall colour balance is better on his unit than on altos. Anyone else feel the same? Quote
Scyla Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 Yes, especially on the wings. The blue of the VF-25G Tornado Pack is much better then the gray on the F version of the add-on. Altos Valkyrie looks much better as Super or Armored Messiah. Quote
Bahamutzyro Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 anyone get their vf-25f from otacute? mine says origin preparing shippment since 8-5-2013! Quote
Dimis Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 Yes, especially on the wings. The blue of the VF-25G Tornado Pack is much better then the gray on the F version of the add-on. Altos Valkyrie looks much better as Super or Armored Messiah. The G tornado pack is what i'm waiting for! Although i think they will sell it as a set and i'll be double-dipping! Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) If I grab my second G soonish and they release a tornado bundle that's triple dipping...maybe ill have one for each mode...who doesn't like a transforming space mecha sniper? Edited August 18, 2013 by Shukenzero Quote
SaitouSad Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 anyone get their vf-25f from otacute? mine says origin preparing shippment since 8-5-2013! mine was already sent out, and is currently in shipment via SAL Registered. Quote
Scyla Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 The G tornado pack is what i'm waiting for! Although i think they will sell it as a set and i'll be double-dipping! Is this just a feeling of yours or do you know something specific? I'm hoping that it will no be bundled since I don't want another VF-25G (especially not with the VF-25A around the corner). The only "renewal" release that was a bundle was the VF-27 and I think the reason for that is that Bandai thought that the collectors need some incentive to buy the updated VF-27 that was not a complete redesign of the old one. Not even the YF-29 Valkyries where bundled and their add-on sets are barely noticeable. So I'm really hoping they release the VF-25G Tornado Pack as a single release. After that Bandai can release as much bundled Sets as they want. Quote
Frogze Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 I got my VF-25F from Otacute earlier today, it's a perfect toy, really love it and I can finally make use of the armor parts that were waiting for him since last year Quote
grymg Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) I'm slowly transforming it, is there a way to cleanly swivel the arms from fighter down into gerwalk without the shoulder tampo scraping all the time? The clearance is basically a hair's width. I love the double seat, even though don't have a Ranka I'll be displaying it that way anyway and throwing the extra piece in the box. Not only was the nose cone joint tight, but the hip ball joints were super tight, like my 171. And just like the v1 it feels like I scratched all of the nose paint while trying to swivel it under the head. Luckily I put some painters tape over it before the transformation.

SaitouSad Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 wow...how many restocks has it been already? Quote
Valk-1S Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 wow...how many restocks has it been already? I think this would either be the first or second restock. They would have release some stock when they met their preorders, so this could be the first. Good to see though as if they release the VF-25S, there's is no reason to pay huge premium or a premium at all. Also, seems like their restock last for a while too for people to pick up. Quote
mechaninac Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 HS had the VF-27 earlier today, and now the 25F is available for purchase; this bodes well for the post release availability of Ozma's VF-25S when it's reissued. Quote
Valk-1S Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Link for anyone interested. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10153639 Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Wow. It's weird seeing an "add to cart" button underneath a MacF Valk in HS. =) Quote
alldarker Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Link for anyone interested. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10153639 Thanks. I've just shown HS my interest Makes up for having bought the VF-27 through NY yesterday, only to see it come into stock at HS today, for much less. Quote
Benson13 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 HS restock again !!! Finally. Thank you. Quote
Potato Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I wonder if bandai is finally increasing manufacturing little by little (without pulling a Yamato). Quote
Lorindor Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Man, this has already become an expensive day... Both the VF-25F and the VF-27 on the same day. Unfortunately from two different shops, leading to separate shipping and extra tax, but at least I got them for a very reasonable price. Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Are we sure Bandai will even reissue the Ozma? Seems like such a sure thing but they are so random. Only good thing is like everyone says: they have better supply. On that note, I'm finally warming to the 25 CF... Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) damn! i had to order another... i guess yay!!!! I got my VF-25F from Otacute earlier today, it's a perfect toy, really love it and I can finally make use of the armor parts that were waiting for him since last year mine is coming in the mail today from octacute Link for anyone interested. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10153639 and thanks for saving me the hassle Edited August 20, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
