royard Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Well I caved; wasn't really interested in the RVF-25, but it really grew on me these last few days. That and Nippon-Yasan has them at a decent price. Gona grab the super parts next month. You may want to do it now--the order deadline is Aug 4 for the super parts. Quote
Mizicke5273 Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 You may want to do it now--the order deadline is Aug 4 for the super parts. Well, looks like I will be ordering them very soon. Thank you for the heads up! Quote

Mizicke5273 Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 So I ordered the super parts for Luca and Michel........though I forgot I already had Michel's in the cart. And so I ended up with two sets of Michel's and just realized it now. Hmm, maybe this happened for a reason...... Quote

Jasonc Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I'm still waiting for the Tornado parts set. Once I get those, I'll have the S in the Armor, Alto's with fast packs, Michel's w/ (hopefully) Tornado packs, and Luca's w/ the RVF fast packs w/ transponders and ghosts. Oh, and waiting on that CF A bare. A display of most options in Frontier. Quote
Lorindor Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I'm not sure about getting the Super Parts... I like the look of the RVF-25 when it's bare better, but those Ghosts are such an essential part of the RVF-25 concept, if you know what I mean. Don't know if I can justify the price... Quote
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am going to preorder the super parts today. The drones look cool. It's not the super parts so much that I care for just that he is the only guy that has pets to follow him haha. Quote
Gakken85 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) The super parts are in Nov, yeah? Edited August 1, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote

Akron2003 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Thanks, Pedro2k6... I made my reservation... Quote
Mizicke5273 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 My RVF-25 was delivered today. The design continues to grow on me; the color, not so much. Still glad I picked it up. Quote
sil80jdm Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 I must be in the minority I love the mint green Quote

Duymon Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) hot damn It's still on at HLJ lol. Shelf warmer? Edited August 13, 2013 by Duymon Quote
cypherxv Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 What scale is that vajra figure in the backround and where can I get one or two? Quote
skullmilitia Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 What scale is that vajra figure in the backround and where can I get one or two? It appears to be vapor ware at this point. I love the green, I'm dying to get the Super Part set. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) I just ordered a set from NY, I figure I need at least 1 super VF-25. Plus there's the 3 ghosts, which I'm actually more excited about than the armor. Edited August 14, 2013 by anime52k8 Quote
BoaRepublic Posted August 14, 2013 Posted August 14, 2013 I dunno how many times I've tried to catch this valk on HLJ....hundreds. Always too late. Anyone selling one for near HLJ price? Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 NY still has them for within $20 of what HLJ is charging. Quote
BoaRepublic Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I should have it in a couple days! Thank you! Quote
close313 Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Just got mine, my first VF-25. This damn thing is huge and heavy compared to my 11B ( well 11B is much fatter anyways). But it doesn't feel like I could play with it alot unlike my Yamato VFs (I love transforming back and forth ALOT). I feel nervous everytime I transform it, don't want to damage the paint or even break it. But overall, I'm impressed with the quality especially the yummilicious shiny diecast. I also love the fact that the peg extender for the shield has a cut that allows the inner flap to fold out. Reviews I've seen didn't mention this and I thought I needed to take it out everytime for fighter mode. Quote
anime52k8 Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I mentioned that that you don't have to take the peg out in fighter mode maybe five pages ago... I also like how it's color matched to the underside of the shield so it doesn't look conspicuous their. man, I can't wait to get a box of ghosties to go with it. Quote
Scream Man Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 You dont have to take the peg out in fighter, BUT it prevents the tail from raising up enough to clear the ground if the fighter is on its landing gear. Quote

Scream Man Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Well, u CAN, but u have to bend the antenna out of the way. I didnt want to risk loosening the joint Quote

Loop Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) Wrong thread, but thanks for sharing. Still waiting on mine.... Edited August 18, 2013 by Loop Quote
Shukenzero Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Pulled the trigger on a second RVF...had wanted a second G but too expensive...growing to love this AWACS valk! Shouldn't it technically be SWACS? Quote
Lorindor Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 My RVF-25 arrived this monday, which was really fitting since it was my birthday. Took a closer look at it yesterday. It's my first variable fighter from Bandai and I'm positively surprised by the quality. Although, I expected it to be somewhat bigger in comparison to my Yamato's. Haven't transformed it and I don't think I want to; it just looks perfect in fighter mode. Alto's 25F on the other hand, I want to display in battloid mode when it arrives. Quote
arrow Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 whats new with the renewal, aside from the structural differences like the gerwalk? I mean, the 25F renewal had the ex armor and 25G had the grappling hook. how else does the RVF outdo the v1 Quote
grymg Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 whats new with the renewal, aside from the structural differences like the gerwalk? I mean, the 25F renewal had the ex armor and 25G had the grappling hook. how else does the RVF outdo the v1 Yeah you're right they didn't provide anything new with the renewal RVF compared to v1. They probably consider the standard radome as the extra. I wished they included a Nanase figure for the back seat =) Quote
Loop Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Yeah you're right they didn't provide anything new with the renewal RVF compared to v1. They probably consider the standard radome as the extra. I wished they included a Nanase figure for the back seat =) I wanted her too, but they would have had to redesign the back of Lucas seat to fit all of her major boobage Quote
Astro_BS-AS Posted September 2, 2013 Posted September 2, 2013 Hi everyone ! Coming a little late to the party, but I can´t be happier with the RVF 25 renewal. I´ve transformed twice already, and not a single problem/scratch/looseness... Nothing at all. I´m quite pleased with the quality of the paintjob. It´s really well done. And the head sculpt with the the clear plastic "sensors" (?) is really well done and worth the price. And I don´t mind the "extra part" for the shield. It has a little gap on a side so to keep it during transformation from battroid to fighter mode, and I´m not using the gun pod attachment either. I´m using the gerwalk locking bar (or however it stands for) extended in fighter mode (it hangs trough the arms) and with little care the gunpod stays in place. And I can even use the stand I should mention that I have a v1 Ozma´s and I FURIOUSLY HATE the gunpod attachment part.... Quote
namsdraug Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 anyone who still wanted one, seems to be on sale on NY http://www.nippon-yasan.com/lang-en/macross/4696-macross-f-dx-chogokin-rvf-25-messiah-valkyrie-luca-angelloni-custom-renewal-version.html Quote
