Loop Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Wow, you paid $400 for it? I think they are still around the $200 mark if you look around. Quote
kaiotheforsaken Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I sincerely hope he didn't pay 400 for it. I gave up my pre-orders for the G due to so much other stuff coming out at the time. But now that we're through the holidays and it's only about 20 dollars more than what I had pre-ordered it at...I'm super tempted. I certainly don't need the whole gang, but I dig the blue color and the head of the G. Quote
slaginpit Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I paid 320 shipped for it. But still its expensive. I have only been able to find it on ebay for 400, lucky for me a contact in Hong Kong was able to grab one for me. Quote
kaiotheforsaken Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Members here have found it in stock for about 90 bucks cheaper shipped. Glad you found one, but you may have overpaid a bit. The 25G doesn't seem to be as popular as the others even though I personally think it looks the best. 250 bucks is probably my top dollar for any of these. I'm not so attached to the designs that I must have them, nor am I willing to pay ebay scalpers way more than what it's worth. Quote
anime52k8 Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 I would like one, but I don't want to pay more than $200USD shipped for it. Quote
Drackie Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) Ozma rocks ! ( negative. looks like defold haha ) Edited December 30, 2012 by Drackie Quote
Duymon Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) If the RVF isn't popular that's great, because it's my fav and I want multiples to customize :0 Grey RVF with yellow nose ftw. Also, the 25G seems to be very easy to procure, even now. It's been out like 3 months and still going for around 200-ish, even on NY. Edited December 30, 2012 by Duymon Quote
mechaninac Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 All I need is Luca's RVF and a reissue of Ozma's S model, and perhaps a CF "A" version, and my 25 collection will be complete. I do hope that any further releases will be at least as relatively easy to secure, as a preorder or near retail, as the G has proven to be. Quote
Duymon Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) My gf found this for 15000 Yen in a small toy shop in Gunma. Just arrived today in NYC I think she's a keeper Edited January 8, 2013 by Duymon Quote
Loop Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 You owe your gf big time, she got a great deal on that for how late in the game you got it. Congrats! Quote
Dio Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Slightly naive question, but would it be very tough for some of the Shapeways gurus around here to design conversion parts for the V1 valks to make them more like the Renewals? You're really only talking a couple parts for the hips, maybe something more involved for the shoulders but certainly not impossible. Quote
UN Spacy Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 You're only taking a couple of parts? Quote
Vermillion21 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Does anyone know if Bandai will be releasing a v2 of the Luca "green" VF-25 fighter? And his fast packs and radar dish? Sorry in advance if it's already been mentioned in this thread ... I didn't go through all 39 pages. Too lazy, LOL. Quote

Sorry in advance if it's already been mentioned in this thread ... I didn't go through all 39 pages. Too lazy, LOL. Yeah it's due fairly soon, it was shown around the same time as the VF-171 canon fodder which is just up for pre-order now. Quote

You're really only talking a couple parts for the hips, maybe something more involved for the shoulders but certainly not impossible. If by a couple of parts you mean 90% of the toy or more; then sure, it wouldn't be impossible, just ludicrously expensive and difficult to the point where you should just pay the scalper prices for a proper renewal.

Archer Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Can anyone post amazing photos of a VF-25G? I need to convince myself to buy one.... Quote

Edi Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Goddam Nippon Yasan is taking FOREVER! i paid for the Michael on the 3rd with EMS, and it hasnt left Japan yet! The Alto is even slower! That is odd, I placed my order on the 6th, and it shipped out yesterday via EMS. It's my first order placed with them. I hope they ship yours out soon. Quote
silverhawk Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) B_A_T_ never fails to impress... ...and for the mobile users... http://m.flickr.com/...57631800004163/ Does the knee bend > 90 degrees? Just wondering if it can do kneeling poses like the gundam robot Damashiis. I've checked the videos and none of them showed it as being able to. Edited January 11, 2013 by silverhawk Quote
Scyla Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Awww the Vf-25G looks so awesome. The shade of blue that they used amazes me every time I look at it. And it can even look through the sniper scope. I guess you should not use the stand in the way B_A_T did it when he displayed the Valkyrie in fighter-mode. That looks really stressful for the front of the plane. Quote
Duymon Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 NY-san seems to take much longer to ship packages that use super cheapy shipping. whenever I order super cheapy it takes like 7-10 days to ship. When I buy EMS they ship within 1-2 days O_o Quote
little_donkey Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Hi, is the VF-25F Tornado Messiah the same as the normal VF25F but with Tornado pack? Can the tornado pack be dettached from the figure? => http://www.nippon-yasan.com/macross/2463-macross-f-dx-chogokin-vf-25f-tornado-messiah-valkyrie-saotome-alto-custom.html Quote

Loop Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Hulo! I'm new. I want to share some of my collection. https://www.facebook...=1&l=4079aca6c7 Welcome aboard! Thanks for sharing your collection with us God Damn Bandai announce the freaking VF-25G Super Parts already..... I am almost tempted to have someone customize one of the spare sets I have sitting in the closet. Quote
Vermillion21 Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 Yeah it's due fairly soon, it was shown around the same time as the VF-171 canon fodder which is just up for pre-order now. Thanks for confirming. Guess I will wait for pre-orders to be listed ... I wish I could find a renewal Ozma for a decent price .... *sigh* Quote
Duymon Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 ROFL...I had to read this twice before I knew for sure what you meant. But man, is that the Renewal Version? Yup. It was a miracle to find an Alto at sub $200 O_o I guess odd shops here and there have mad macross in Japan and let Renewal Altos sit for like 14 months O_o Quote
David Hingtgen Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 If she ever finds more, have her buy them and send them to needy MW members. Quote
