Cdisdope Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 I found a MIB one of these online and was wondering if it's worth paying 21,800 yen. Is there a place to get it cheaper? Quote
Dimis Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) The cheapest i have ever seen was about 15,000 Yen at Yahoo Auctions with Proxy fees included but without shipping. Generally it's only there that you can find decent prices. I have the Ivanov variant and if i had needed to pay that amount of money (i got mine for about 18,000 YEN brand new without shipping), i would feel okay paying it since it's unique. Generally they are rarer than most other valkyries as they have not been re-issued so the price will never be as low as others. Color-wise it's a matter of preference. I only like the Ivanov, other people only like the Nora, and some people prefer the Mass production. Just make sure that MIB is MIB. Edited March 8, 2013 by Dimis Quote
Ignacio Ocamica Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Yes, I have to agree, Dobber's scheme is the best SV-51 out there!! Quote
plutoniumhunter Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Er, pardon the silly question, but what do you guys mean by Dobber? D.D.? Quote
charger69 Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 No, Dobber is a MWer who made an awesome custom paint to SV-51 based on a real scheme (Sukhoi's Super Flanker) Quote
miro79 Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 where can i find more pictures of this masterpiece? Quote
charger69 Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 FYI http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?app=gallery&album=296 Quote
Old Man Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Yes, I have to agree, Dobber's scheme is the best SV-51 out there!! Indubitably! Quote
Scyla Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 I think that the combination of Noras dark magenta and DDs almost black Valkyie looks very good. They are a good team Quote
Dobber Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 My ears are bleeding! Thanks for the complinets guys!! Really means alot. How's she doing Charger? Chris Quote
charger69 Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 She is in perfect shape Honestly I didn't transform it yet and displayed only in fighter mode with Ivanov and Nora! Quote
Cdisdope Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Thanks everyone! Nice custom, Dobber! Quote
EXO Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Dobber is an animal. His Low Viz VF-22 is also a killer. Quote
Dobber Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Thanks EXO, I forgot about that one too! Just added it to my signature line with my others Chris Quote
Plasticgoose Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I would say for a cannon odder version that is expensive. I saw a Nora and Eivind for 14700 and 18900 yen respectively. I would think the fodder version would be cheaper than the main character versions. Quote
Kurisama Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Still, the CF 51 is on my want list, so yummy - but Dobber, your custom is simply gorgeous - charger, I'm so jelly! Quote
LOW_ALT Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Anybody on here have the CF SV-51? I'd like to see some pictures up close, but all the pictures I see are the generic ones. An oil wash and some decals might really do that tan paint scheme some good. Quote
ErikElvis Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I couldn't stop thinking about Dobbers 51 when it was for sale. I wanted it so bad. Quote
master of macross Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 buy CF, i have 2x, is very good color, you see in my collection a real foto, i have buy 2, bucouse is a "mass production", i love the "mass production" macross color...vf1a...vf1j... my opinion is BUY Quote

Kurisama Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Hrng, so tempting - but a bit strapped for cash at the mo..... Quote
Falcon Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Is the Ivanov any good? Heard a lot of negative talk about it but anymoon gave it a pretty good review overall. Loved the Ivanov design... so... conflicted Quote
Dimis Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Is the Ivanov any good? Heard a lot of negative talk about it but anymoon gave it a pretty good review overall. Loved the Ivanov design... so... conflicted I have the Ivanov and i didn't have a problem with parts, however the gerwalk is a bit helpless. It relies on really weak small pieces to "lock" into place the shoulder/wings/arms area and it doesn't hold. Also the way the wings fold suffers too. I should expect all of them to be this way though. Quote
LOW_ALT Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Welp I snatched up that Ivanov, hope it's not a dud Quote
Uxi Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Yeah that splinter camo one is nice. What's this about a low-viz VF-22? Quote
