Gakken85 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 The strike and super parts for 1/60 vf-1 might be coming down. I just saw one listed at $75 buy it now. Just got some super/strike parts for $95 Quote
Lolicon Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Ebay? Mandarake. I saw it and passed because I don't need another set. Lucky for him. Quote
dapro Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Those strike parts are hard to find nowadays too! good find! Edited May 7, 2013 by dapro Quote

Dimis Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Apparently someone bought a Hikaru VF-1A from Anime-Export that they brought in today. I wonder if they know... Quote

Dimis Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 What did you mean? It is one of the early fragile shoulders releases. Quote

raptormesh Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 It is one of the early fragile shoulders releases. Ah...ouch. Quote
Lolicon Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Nothing a few drops of super glue can't fix. I personally prefer the earlier releases with the tinted canopies. Quote
jvmacross Posted May 7, 2013 Author Posted May 7, 2013 the availability of the shoulder repair parts should make buying one with shoulder issues a "non-issue"...however, the price for it should reflect it's status as "imperfect".....and if "repaired" an honest seller should make that known.....as some "tools" on ebay would say....it is no longer 1000% GENUINE!!!!!

derex3592 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 The prices of Yamato's now remind me of just one line from Spaceballs...."LUDICROUS SPEED...GOOOOO!" Quote
jvmacross Posted May 7, 2013 Author Posted May 7, 2013 It seems the upcoming renewal of the VF-27 has really put a dent on the pricing for the VF-27....even the HTF "Normal-type"...hopefully, it too will get a renewal....

Mechapilot77 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Don't forget about shapeways replacement shoulder hinge. yup i no longer fear the shoulders breaking on my early release DYRL stuff. Think I have that stuff bookmarked on my home laptop. think one of our very own on MW made them? VF5 aka Veef or something like that. Quote

SaitouSad Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 imho, there's only so much crap worth buying in the "panic buy" market Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 the arcadia news should cease the "panic" demand and inflation. hopefully kakizaki will be $75 again. Quote
Lolicon Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 TV Kakizaki is still only ~$75 at HKC and Angolz. I haven't bought one because shipping is just so much from HK because they don't offer (or don't have) any SAL equivalent. $30 shipping for a Kakizaki? No thanks. Yes, I really am that stingy. Quote

Plasticgoose Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 I feel like I could by a 3D printer and just crank out valks for these prices. Not sure how much a 3d printer is but this is crazy! Quote
raptormesh Posted May 9, 2013 Posted May 9, 2013 Kakizaki wasn't really selling out at HKC and angols even before the news from Arcadia. IMO the best way to get a feel for the market is the Japanese one and its still hot. Ebay's silly but mandarake is a good thermometer for these things. Quote
