Chronocidal Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Preorders for what, the 1/72 VF-1 kits? I wouldn't worry. Unlike the DX line, Bandai plastic kits seem to have no end to their production lines, and are no where near as heavily in demand because of the work involved in building them. Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 It's a V.1 VF-1J Whoops! my bad Grats on an absolute steal! That may very well have been the very last one they had at Overdrive, since the product listing is entirely gone now. I would've picked one more up from there myself if I'd trusted them, but oh well. great purchase on the VF-1J SaitouSad Thanks! To be honest, been eyeing this for awhile, but since the guys in this thread said it was a good price, I decided to hop on it. Well, it seems that preorders are already sold out at amiami and incredibly fast too. I read that preorders where up and as I looked the window was already closed. I hope the Bandai madness does not continue with the model kits now that the DX Chogokin Frontier line is almost finished. I doubt it. And even if it did, who'd wanna go for an out of scale model kit, unless you like modelling, and have a whole collection in the 1/72 scale. I would love to get my hands on the frontier kits, but the task looks pretty daunting (casual modeller here). Quote
jvmacross Posted May 2, 2013 Author Posted May 2, 2013 So I guess it's time to retire this thread..... Quote
spanner Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 after foolishly (though not completely my fault) selling off my Macross / Robotech collection years earlier I have now started recollecting some Valkyries only to find out that Yamato has gone bust.. gahhhh.. The only upside to collecting again is that the newer versions of the Valkyrie (Yamato 1/60) are far superior in design that what I had previously. But sheesh some have proven painfully expensive to buy again. I am after a VF-4 but can't muster up the courage to pay what people are asking for them.. im so sad Quote

Valkyrie Magnus Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Well since we know the 1st thing being offered. I will wait for the Arcadia Super Ostrich, because$466 is way too much for me. Quote

jvmacross Posted May 9, 2013 Author Posted May 9, 2013 No Vf-2SS? LOL! I could only fit 20!!! Added second list for Macross II VF's..... Quote
charger69 Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 SDF-1 TV Ver. will be the most profitable product among these IMO and also a GLORIOUS COMEBACK Quote
jvmacross Posted May 9, 2013 Author Posted May 9, 2013 Based on votes alone Macross II valks are blowing away the competition....this madness needs to stop!!! Added special "collaboration" versions to try to slow down their popularity!!! Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 reissues and the v3 YF-19 We got the VF-4, so a VF-2SS doesn't seem that impossible anymore, besides, I doubt the Macross II license is expensive, hehehe Quote
xrentonx Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Hell yeah I'll take a Hello Kitty version! ...your attempt at deterrence has failed! Quote

EXO Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 V.2 19 Sorry Froy... gonna be a long wait on that one... Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Torn between VF-3000 and Nousjadeul-Ger Movie!!! N-Ger it is. Quote
Murphy Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I voted for vf-11maxl I know it's not my favorite design but hey they got to complete Fire bomber, can't leave vf-19kai all by itself. And for the second part I voted vf-2ss have no clue why they would make a hello kitty version though. Quote
BlueMax Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I'd rather they go for some brand new stuff un-made, like the VF-5000! or Destroid Phalanx, enemy mecha... etc Quote
kyekye Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 First one is 30th anniversary vf-1j with additional gimmicks. They will milk it out while working on the new 19!!! Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) First one is 30th anniversary vf-1j with additional gimmicks. They will milk it out while working on the new 19!!! is that what is implied, that the 30th vf-1j will have additional gimmicks brand new that were never done already? maybe the gunpod will come with a strap? Edited May 10, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
raptormesh Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 My advice is to have low expectations. Both in terms of gimmicks and time frame. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 My advice is to have low expectations. Both in terms of gimmicks and time frame. i'm hoping gimmicks does not mean new mold. as then we will have to recollect a whole new line Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Maybe they will finally add the damn antenna to the backpack. PT intake covers? Or an improve way to make the arms swing out for Gerwalk and Battroid without too many friction with the legs? How about articulate TV clown hands??? that would be sick!! or...LED's!!! Quote
skullmilitia Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 How about just wing flaps and flip up nose cones like the 1/48's. Can't get much more then that without sacrificing articulation Or line art. Quote
raptormesh Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Working flaps and control surfaces would make me do things to my wallet that would be pretty x-rated. Quote
Gakken85 Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I'd like to see More destroids, but I know that won't happen Quote
Graham Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I want VF-17S Millia type! Why is it not on the poll?.......Grrrr! And also want: V2. YF-19 V2. VF-0A/S VF-0D Fz-109 VF-2SS w/SAP Graham Quote
