Gakken85 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Please doesn't include multiple orders of the same toy. I want to know the most you've paid for one single boxed item: used, new, or at auction. GO! Do your most expensive Macross Then your most expensive Non-Macross. Toys only Edited April 13, 2013 by Gakken85 Quote
xrentonx Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Probably the VF-4G for me. I got two of em. Quote
miro79 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) VF19S from HKcollectibles. Was 155€ in the end, shipping and taxes included. but i only have 3 valks so far, so ... Edited April 12, 2013 by miro79 Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 Probably the VF-4G for me. I got two of em. Only one counts! haha Quote
pikashoo Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Macross: 1/48 tv kakizaki $350. Vf4g lost by a few dollars Non macross: the two Raidens in my avatar. $650 each. Edited April 12, 2013 by pikashoo Quote
xrentonx Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Got them from different sources but "single most" for me Quote
tao Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Probably my Yamato 1/3000 SDF-1 built used at $400. But theyre almost impossible to find now! Edited April 12, 2013 by tao Quote
xrentonx Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I forgot about my Yamato Macross. That thing was pretty expensive. It's bad that I don't really remember how much I paid for these things. Now if we're talkin non-Macross, my MGS Rex from 3A probaby wins. Quote
m0n5t3r Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) 1/3000 DYRL SDF-1. Totally worth it though. Awesome centerpiece. Edited April 12, 2013 by m0n5t3r Quote
dizman Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Around $275 for a Beagle Mospeada if I recall correctly, still one of my favorite pieces in my collection. Quote
mechaninac Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Anime Toy: Yamato 1/60 VF-4G. This was, without a shadow of a doubt, the most I've paid for any plastic/diecast toy, ever. Yamato's 1/60 VF-17S and VF-19S, and Bandai's Andromeda are distant seconds. Non Anime Toy: AUTOArt 1/18 McLaren F1. Model: Kotobukyia 1/100 MGS Rex. Edited April 12, 2013 by mechaninac Quote
Benson13 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 $330 for a 1/3000 SDF-1 and I don't regret a single cent of it. Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 $400 for my Yamato SDF-1 1/3000 right when it 1st came out. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 Macross: VF-0a for $240. Non Macross: I think I paid $260 including EMS shipping for my SOC 48 expansion kit which was a web exclusive. Considering they usually go for 300-400, that's not too bad. Quote
Kurisama Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 the thread my wife must never see... Hahahaa! Same here For me it was the VF-4G at $306.20 AUD followed closely by the '19P at $267.87 AUD. Quote
NightCastle Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 This thread is full of possibility. A veritable Pandora's Box!! Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 VF-1J w/GBP-1S armor Grey goggles for 394.86, a recent purchase. Before that it was 383.55 for one VF-4G on release. non-Macross....many watches. Quote
m0n5t3r Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 VF-1J w/GBP-1S armor Grey goggles for 394.86, a recent purchase.ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂ . There should be another category for "what's the most you paid for a marked-up, oop macross toy." Kinda like the days of $1000 takatoku/bandai vf-1s. Especially now that there are $1000 Sdf-1s, $300 Max Vf-1S, $500 VF-1D, etc. Quote
Valkyrie23 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I guess no one mentioned the 1/48 Thunder Hummer kit yet .... Quote
3D-Brainx Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Around $400 for a vf-25G renewal. It's really expensive to get this kind of toys to this side of the world, shipping and taxes really crank up the retail price. Quote

So they count haha Quote
erikos0311 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 the thread my wife must never see... true true, some things are just better left in the dark! lol probably my latest addition: VF-4G..! over 400 but at least it wasn't as much as the ass-rapping Evil-bay prices..! Quote
Vifam7 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I think the Yamato VF-11B at around $150 was my most expensive Macross toy. The most expensive anime toy purchase was the Fewture Gatchaman sets. I think it was around $600 for both sets. The most expensive non-anime toy purchase will be the upcoming re-release of Bandai's Otona no Chogokin Apollo 11/Saturn V set. That is if I keep my pre-order at HLJ... Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I forgot I spent over $500 on my 1/350 space battleship Yamato. Sooooo worth it! Quote
Tober Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Macross - Yamato 1/60 Regult or 1/1 Hikaru Helmet. They were around $500 each. Non-Macross - Ultimate GUNHED. Quote
Archer Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 $297 for the VF-19 Kai when they got to be really popular after launch, but before they started to go on sale everywhere Quote
vt102 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I would have to say it's my Takatoku super VF-1S. Bought in the hay day.. .I spent about $900 shipped. Quote
dapro Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I would have to say it's my Takatoku super VF-1S. Bought in the hay day.. .I spent about $900 shipped. wow, you still have it? Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Posted April 13, 2013 I would have to say it's my Takatoku super VF-1S. Bought in the hay day.. .I spent about $900 shipped. Ooof. Chunky monkeys? haha. Couldn't you just get a Jetfire for $150? Macross - Yamato 1/60 Regult or 1/1 Hikaru Helmet. They were around $500 each. Non-Macross - Ultimate GUNHED. Never seen gunhead. Sounds fun though Quote
usagiz Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 VF-4G from HLJ, about 338 USD shipped... and worth every penny! Quote
OzmaLee74 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 $353 for the VF-4G and $550 for a GD-99 Aquarion. Too bad only learned about Aquarion after the DX was pretty much no longer available at retail. Quote
