Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices

[Benson13]

That makes sense. I'm no economics expert so I don't fully understand how these things are hashed out. I just figured it was important to let people and especially our new guys know that there are good deals out there. They aren't as common as what's on the auctions but they are definitely there.

Thanks for clarifying that JV.

getting my head cleared out and back to market watching:

1/60 gbp armor with smoke effect sold for 399 +34.50 shipping

[Roy's Blues]

I bought the regular set and purchased clear casted "fired missiles effect" from daedelusattack.

He's a member here as well.

It seems everything is dropping in price on the auction market. Either people have completed their collections, or don't have the money to spend so much on toys over there. Maybe some of it has to do with Arcadia coming out with the VF-Tux, but who knows.

[raptormesh]

Are you referring to yahoo jp auction?

[Gakken85]

And going market rates from retailers who sell second hand items.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

this one is already going high:

[Valkyrie Magnus]

Wow that's pretty high

[Bar81]

Wow, people are starting to lose their minds.

[Guest davidwhangchoi]

looks like there's more variety in the vf-1 used market now that Arcadia's back. Except for the rare valks that are going to be re-printed, i'm going shopping now for some general valks.

[Valkyrie addict]

VF-1D

http://www.ebay.com/itm/261223261822?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I thought it would go for a bit more, still expensive, but I guess the frenzy is no more.

[Gakken85]

I think things are settling closer to 200-300. I wouldn't pay more than 300 for just about anything other than a V2 Max and Millia with supers, or maybe a vf-11c. Might be awhile before that gets re-issued.

wow, that's pretty high. 300 for a vf-1d was the price during the panic.

you can try posting here:

http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=33780

it's a thread asking for values and also look at the first page of this thread.

jvmacross posts a bunch of prices of those have sold for recently to give you a feel of the market from ebay and the market in Japan.

just to note if you look at a price of a Japan auction, you'll need to tack on about 50-80 bucks to the final price as that it'll be what it takes to get it proxy/shipped here.

i wonder if i should get it or wait till the price drops

it's opened too.

[SaitouSad]

Just thought I'd give a heads up, that HLJ's daily sales today has listed the VF-19S Emerald Force for a pretty decent price

http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00224/Sci

And for anybody who still doesn't own the Macross Quarter, it's been lowered slightly more

[Valkyrie addict]

So, anyone here got this? nice deal

I only did a bid of 400, I knew I wasn't going to win but I didn't want to feel left out, hehe

[ron5864]

What's going on with the 171 price? That seems high for an opened and damaged box item.

I didn't expect it to sell that low.

[sreichma]

I have no idea how to order from those yahoo auction sites, I wish I did, because the prices are seem to be a lot better. I always get killed on ebay, thats why I buy from people on here now. Props to davidwhangchoi for tracking a Hikaru 1S down for me. Seeing that Max 1A with super parts now has me wanting it more than the 1S Hikaru. I'm glad I have such a great addiction support group on here.

Also, does anyone have any thoughts on if you think Arcadia will actually release the 1J Max and Miria or any other valks?

Edited June 19, 2013 by sreichma

[jvmacross]

The list of things never re-released is much shorter than the list of things that have....

[connor99]

Also, does anyone have any thoughts on if you think Arcadia will actually release the 1J Max and Miria or any other valks?

I'm hoping they do, because I would like to get me a couple of more 1/60 V2. A re-ish of the VF-1X would be nice !

[jvmacross]

So here is what I came up with as far as Macross toys that were never re-released and would probably (maybe?) sell decently if they were:

Takatoku:

GBP-1 set or combo (re-release would probably be via Bandai)

Bandai:

1/55 VF-1S Strike Valkyrie

1/55 VE-1 Elint Seeker

1/55 VT-1 Super Ostrich

Yamato:

1/60 VF-4G Lightning

1/60 VT-1 Super Ostrich

1/60 VF-1J Super Valkyrie Max Type

1/60 VF-1J Super Valkyrie Miria Type

1/60 VF-1J Mass Release/"Commander Type"

1/60 VF-X

1/60 VF-1A Angel Birds

1/60 VF-1D Virgin Road

1/60 VF-1S Low Viz version/"Stealth/Low Viz" Roy Focker

1/60 TV Fast Packs

1/100 VB-6 (if improved on the floppiness!)

1/48 VF-1A Low Viz

1/60 Destroids? (technically re-released as weathered, etc....re-releases might sell better if Arcadia bundled some extra new (support vehicles?) freebies with all of them and announced the completion of the Destroid line: Spartan and Phalanx)

So kind of a short list when compared to everything that has enjoyed multiple releases....did I miss something? Any other Yamato (or other company) valks that never were re-released and are hard to find these days?

Hey jvmacross, what about the Yamato: VF-4G for your list?

Well....a "Focker" like a VF-1J Mass Production is aka "Commander Type".....
