seti88 Posted September 9, 2018 Posted September 9, 2018 If they do, i wonder how much the pricing will run? Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted September 9, 2018 Posted September 9, 2018 I wouldn't mind buying a VF-25F, seeing as the one I have is not a renewal version. Quote
seti88 Posted September 9, 2018 Posted September 9, 2018 i wouldnt mind them if they reissued the armor parts! that would be too much armor for 1 year i suppose with the 31S armors incoming as well... Quote

How come Alto's DX VF-25F is on display along with the DX YF-19? https://twitter.com/T_KOTEN_Q/status/1038599921073410049 Was wondering that myself. I'd definitely be in for a reissue of the vf-25f. I've been looking around for one, but I'm a little hesitant to drop that kind of cash on a toy that is almost 7 years old. I'm more worried about durability and looseness than the actual design. I'd be down for one, even if it is a straight re-issue. Maybe the would try to add the vf-31 ratcheting hips to the vf-25? Quote
sh9000 Posted September 9, 2018 Posted September 9, 2018 I already have all of them but if a reissue VF-25 for the anniversary gets them to also release the Vajra then that would be cool. I’ll also welcome Valkyries and enemies from Macross Frontier for HMR as well. Quote

It runs from Sept 5-17. Check it out the speaker pod cast's website for more info: http://www.decultureshock.com/macross-macross-f-cafe-art-gallery/ Quote
kajnrig Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Just a quick question: I'm looking at two YJA auctions for the VF-25 Renewal Armor Parts (one F, one S), and they've both reached ~25k yen. Is that close to what they typically go for nowadays? I'd have expected something closer to 10k, maybe 15k, more akin to other expansion parts sets. (They end tomorrow morning in case you're interested.) https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p638143712 https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h347559578 Quote
kajnrig Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 That's crazy. Why? Just popular, maybe? High RRP to begin with? Quote
Duymon Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 Renewal parts are pricey. I sold my opened copies for 230-250 USD just last year. I'd expect those to go higher. Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 When I bought renewal armor for the 25S it ran me ¥30,000 Quote

kajnrig Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 (edited) Wow. Crazy. Okay, then. Thanks for the info, y'all. Edited October 9, 2018 by kajnrig Quote
chyll2 Posted October 9, 2018 Posted October 9, 2018 When I got into this hobby a few years back, it was sitting at 18,000 yen for MISB. Then the ozma got reissued (at the time of announcement, all Armor pack in Mandarake got sold out lol), Alto got reissued a lot, then the normal price became 32,000 yen. From time to time, Mandarake will have those from 22,000 yen to 28,000 yen for opened version. Currently, Ozma has a higher price than Alto's Armor pack. Quote
Sildani Posted January 7, 2019 Posted January 7, 2019 Nippon-Yasan has the VF-25S Ozma in stock for ¥34,200. https://www.nippon-yasan.com/8318-macross-f-vf-25s-messiah-valkyrie-ozma-lee-custom-renewal-ver-reissue.html Quote
mickyg Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 You've done well to get those super parts! Looking forward to your review. Quote
Rogueload Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 @Kuma Style Once you get those super parts on you’ll be hooked!! The VF-25 renewals are awesome! One gripe it the thigh joints get loose. But that can be rectified with some nail polish or super glue to tighten them up. Quote
Arkham Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Quick question. Are we supposed to unscrew and expose the joint to apply the nail polish, or we kinda make it drip down the joint? Quote

The best way is to drip the polish into the joint and then move the joint around to get it all coated. Then leave it alone to dry. Repeat if necessary. Quote

Graham Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Watch out for yellowing, one of my three VF-25F renewals already has some yellowing. Quote

My stuff is displayed in cases and the lights in then are switch activated and LEDs. By keeping an eye on your 25F and how it reacts to temperature and direct sunlight. When most people reported the issue I think it occurred during higher temps and being exposed to sunlight. Quote

Kuma Style Posted February 16, 2019 Posted February 16, 2019 I'm cool. I'd like to just be given space to enjoy what I have atm vs thinking about buying more stuff for something I haven't even transformed yet. Quote
