OzmaLee74 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 NY via FedEx. Wasn't happy with what I paid though but I didn't want to risk my other preorders being cancelled with them since I already cancelled with them for the reissue 25F renewal. Quote
YF-29 Durandal Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Some pics Noticed that the head laser on mine pops off really easy unlike my 25G. Other than that everything is super tight and the paint is pretty well done. Is it from the same mold as the VF-25F? Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Everything but the head. It's exactly the same mold as the VF-25G except for the color and numbers. I noticed they just reused the styrofoam tray from the VF-25F. It has an empty circle space for where the clear plastic disc/stand for F went. Quote

So the next VF-25 will be a V3 or is there a 25 series left to be done with the existing mold? Quote
TCracker Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 JUst got mine a few hours back. Lovely colors and QC. Quote
Gakken85 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Looks pretty good! Very halloween haha I think it'll make a good replacement for my canon fodder, at least. Edited October 14, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Nice! I can't wait for mine to arrive! My Macross Airforce is dominant over the skies of North Seattle! Wait a sec. I thought my Macross Airforce dominated North Seattle? Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 So the next VF-25 will be a V3 or is there a 25 series left to be done with the existing mold? Not sure about being a version 3 since the v.2 pretty much improved everything on the v.1 but who knows. It's Bandai were talking about here. There's still the RVF-171 that will probably get announced in the future. Can't remember if there was a RVF-25 CF in the series. Quote

YF-25 YF-30 I really hope they do the YF-25, it's so beautiful! Quote
Mommar Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Man, the 25A/G, and RVF are they only 25 series Valks that I think look good in Battroid. That A head just looks right with the rest of the body. YF-24 could maybe be done with some changes to the wings/legs. I think that's really the only change between the VF-25. Then again with the Tornado parts on the VF-25 profile looks largely like the delta-winged YF-24. The YF-30 is not the same mold as the 25 series, so no. Quote

Don't you mean the YF-24... the prototype of the VF-25 Messiah? Yeah and I would love to buy the YF-30 a thousand times more than the YF-19 reissue. Edited October 14, 2013 by YF-29 Durandal Quote

Yeah and I would love to buy the YF-30 a thousand times more than the YF-19 reissue. The YF-25 looks just like the VF-25 but it has a different paint scheme. The YF-24 would require a bit of mold changing in spots. Quote

Loop Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Wait a sec. I thought my Macross Airforce dominated North Seattle? Honestly, Ithink the 3 of us should combine our Macross airforces and dominate the west coast. So to the guys that got their copies, does it include a hard plastic head laser also? I am still waiting on my 3 copies. Quote
Duymon Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Can't wait to get mine and panel-line them O_0 Should have two in tomorrow via EMS from HS Quote
Kyp Durron Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 I'm guessing mine should be here sometime around Wednesday or so this week, can't wait to get it, it's the best looking paint scheme other than Ozma's, IMO. -Kyp Quote
skullmilitia Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Freaking HS, I paid on Friday and they just now tell me I paid. Quote
mechaninac Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Same here, paid on Friday and just received the acknowledgment email from HS a few minutes ago; I'll just chalk it up to it having been close to the weekend. Let's see how long it'll take them to send it out, but I'm not in any serious hurry... chose unregistered SAL to save money, after all (last two purchases shipped quickly after payment confirmation and took only about a week to arrive at my doorstep via the same shipping method).

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Japan had a three day holiday... it's tuesday morning in japan. HLJ said they will be away till Tuesday. i just got the notice too from hs Edited October 15, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote

3D-Brainx Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 I see. So the next valkyries with the existing molds could be RVF-25 and RVF-171 and maybe YF-24 and YF-25? I can't recall the RVF-25 CF, but there are 2 RVF-171, the CF and Lucca's RVF-171 EX. So there you have 2. Plus the YF-25. I don't think will see a YF-24 any time soon. Definitely, the vf-25 mold has become to Bandai what the vf-1 mold for Yamato/Arcadia. They can keep on releasing new schemes and re-releases that we will keep on buying them. Quote
Mommar Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Hmm, well, it appears my package just kinda sat around in Japan Friday/Saturday/Sunday and most of Monday. That kind of pisses me off. Quote

I had the same problem, paid when the request came in but they just sent a mail today. My copy from CDJ is in LA customs atm. I chose SAL on that one so it will prob take a bit to get here. My other 2 copies have not shipped yet (HS &HLJ) as far as I can tell. Quote
Gakken85 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Post office was closed today. I know that haha Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Wait a sec. I thought my Macross Airforce dominated North Seattle?Lol I'll take the Lake City area and you can take the Greenwood area. Honestly, Ithink the 3 of us should combine our Macross airforces and dominate the west coast. So to the guys that got their copies, does it include a hard plastic head laser also? I am still waiting on my 3 copies. Works for me Loop! The Pacific Northwest is ours Quote
TCracker Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 The color is very hard to catch. Sometimes it looks olive, soetimes tan and sometimes beige. Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 I love this CF and I have two on the way. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Great pics! I can't wait to get a shipping notice from one, but hopefully all, of the places I ordered from. They (collectively) will be one of my b-day gifts to myself. -b. Quote
Mommar Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 The color is very hard to catch. Sometimes it looks olive, soetimes tan and sometimes beige. Gerwalk Love! Quote
lancalot Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 So what extra parts and accessories did the CF come with?.. Quote
