Valkyrie addict Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I scoured Amazon, found a seller with perfect feedback and acceptable shipping price instead of the assrape evilbay Hong Kong prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scyla Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Anyone know of a site with VF-22S gamlin left? Well I found one here: http://plamoya.com/en/macross-perfect-trance-vf22s-sturmvogel-ii-gamlin-custom-1per60--p-21870.html Disclaimer: I never done business with them so be cautious and do some research before!!! Plus the price seems ridiculous even evilbay is cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk009 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Seems like even the latest re-issue of the VE-1's are getting the price hike treatment, just saw someone picking up one from a shop and paid almost $300 for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamutzyro Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 just displayed these two. I must say, these renewals are awesome. the build on them is excellent and much better then the original releases. i would recommend them to anyone who is on the fence. i want to pick up the ozma reissue and alto, but they are so expensive. also, if anyone was wondering what a cannon fodder looked like with super armor i put one together as i was curious on the combo. not bad.

Bahamutzyro Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 ok sorry for the large pics lol. i figured it out now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamutzyro Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 better photos. the first 2 are the new bandai valks from frontier. worth every penny as far as quality and detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uxi Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Yamato USA buys the molds and starts production stateside.....and then I wake up Ah that would be awesome. The ultimate would be Hasbro buying the whole shebang (international distribution from HG? Importing the shows and merchandising them price in the Transformers range). $60-70 for a VF-1, $100-120 for a VF-19, $120-150 for a VF-17.

Lolicon Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Picked up a few items since the announcement of Yamato's closure, though that was really just a coincidence. These deals were too good to pass up. VF-1S Hikaru with option parts VF-1S Hikaru with Super & Strike Parts VF-17S VF-17 Super Parts VF-19S Angolz canceled my Hikaru VF-1A even though it was still listed as in stock for about a week afterwards. I really don't want a Kakizaki lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but if a Hasbro VF-17 had the manufacturing standards of the Masterpiece line, then, well, what can i say? Not much point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyekye Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 HLJ's 1/60 Yamato Macross items are all disappearing very fast - mostly thanks to everyone here. Even the unpainted model kits are getting low-stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 From what I hear, it's the same in Japan... but who knows... they could be scalpers aiming for us... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uxi Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Yack, HLJ is wiped out. Top 4 on my Yamato Bucket List: 1) VF-17D without super pack - sold out or atrocious pricing 2) VF-19P - pretty hard to find only one or two places and/or really expensive. 3) VF-17S - looks pretty easy still in stock a couple places and on evilbay. Relatively low prices make me think it might disappear first, though. 4) VF-19S - same as VF-17S I want to get a couple more of those unpainted kits, too for some hypothetical teams/squadrons.

EXO Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I'm sure some are... I'm not sure what the percentage are of the MacrossWorld panic buyers vs. the japanese panic buyers. For all we know only 5% of the merch being bought up there will end up outside of Japan. Most of it will probably end up in private collections within Japan.

Loop Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 You are sending Seattle ninjas to the country of Ninjas? Good Luck! LOL I've been checking Japanese forums. It's same there. But they are Cali ninjas I got them to change their minds when they arrived in Seattle. I bribed them with good coffee and a really great Sushi place down the road from my house. I let them inspect my collection, and while doing so they told me the story behind the picture posted earlier in this thread. It was what I had suspected, it was really a picture of 2 ninjas, 1 of which posed as an umbrella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 just won a vf-1J cannon fodder for 245 shipped. finally got one but ouch. That's a good win. The CF VF-1J is one of my holy grails. I have a VF-1A CF, I was thinking of checking if anyone had a damaged VF-1j where I can get the head ans paint it brown so I can have one, but its not the same as owning actual one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthurius Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) thanks to this panic thread and the low price of HKC on the VF-19S, and thanks to Shaorin for putting those "damn" addictive pictures on the VF-19S, I came out of the dead and bought it!!!! I wanted the vf-19 Kai, but it was 30$ more expensive, and I figured the S looks nicer....hope I made the right decision. Edit: oh, and I am actually rethinking selling my yf-19 25th anniversary.
