Mommar Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 It did look good. Then I took out the toy and threw it away. Quote
Mommar Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Threw away the box, not the toy. Kept the toy. The toy is still here. Box... recycle bin. YF-19!!!!!! Quote
derex3592 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I keep boxes and I agree with s001! The box SUCKS big time. They seriously need to hire someone to make awesome box art for their future releases. Wasted opportunity. ANYWHO....watched Plus again on Sunday to get me primed for the arrival of this thing! Quote
Matt Random Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I personally wouldn't care if these came in compact plain white boxes. I buy these online so it's not like the box would catch my eye in a store and get an impulse buy out of me. Of course, these are indeed sold in stores so they do need an eye catching box and this box seems like it'll do just fine. Quote
derex3592 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 random question---didn't I read somewhere that Bryan Cranston voiced a character in Plus? Who was it and in which version? Quote
derex3592 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 cool. thanks! guess I just wasn't paying attention -- don't remember it sounding like him Quote
Fort Max Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Just suddenly remembered that this was coming, bank account ready for a savaging. Quote
Valkyrie Magnus Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 cool. thanks! guess I just wasn't paying attention -- don't remember it sounding like him Lol no it does not sound like him. I even have the 4 episodes on my phone. I can't wait for this but as someone mentioned earlier my wallet can wait Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 It did look good. Then I took out the toy and threw it away. you threw your box away?! Well I guess, they do take up a ton of space.. I've been thinking about which ones to toss... Quote
Mommar Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 you threw your box away?! Well I guess, they do take up a ton of space.. I've been thinking about which ones to toss... I've thrown every box away. All fifty of them... (God, I have fifty of these things!?) Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I've thrown every box away. All fifty of them... (God, I have fifty of these things!?) Even though the odds of me selling them are low, I'd still try to keep them, as there's a chance I might pick up whatever better iteration comes out later on. Case in point, the YF-19.... Funny how this quickly builds up eh? Quote

Case in point, the YF-19.... Funny how this quickly builds up eh? The only iteration of the 19 I own is the Double Nuts so that one is staying around purely because of the color scheme. If they release a new version that's better I'll just give the old one to my buddy Kevin, he'll dig it. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 hahaha, funny how I will actually cancel a preorder but out of necessity not desire. As long as Arcadia charges before April 1st, they will avoid the 8% tax increase for retailers and thus to us. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 So excited to get my hands on one that I changed my order from Private Warehouse to Ship Immediately over at HLJ! / -b. Quote
AlphaOne Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I've been hoping something like this would be a reality ever since 2006 - I was always a little letdown by the V.1 1/60, with its large gullet, non-locking chest, and really skinny legs. It just never looked "right" in any mode it was in. This? This one's a different story. Quote
hoju71 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 How much is EMS and Fed Ex shipping generally? I don't think I want to wait for the cheapest option on HLJ. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 How much is EMS and Fed Ex shipping generally? I don't think I want to wait for the cheapest option on HLJ. Best guestimate? Probably around $ 30 to the States, give or take. Someone else can keep me honest. -b. Quote
skullmilitia Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I've got a pretty big PW with 3 valks (DX and Yamato) a MP former' and a bunch of parts. It's only 40$ for FedEx Express right now. It won't be much higher with the edition of the 19' Maybe 5$ more. Quote
Loop Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 So excited to get my hands on one that I changed my order from Private Warehouse to Ship Immediately over at HLJ! / -b. I did that a while ago... Quote
joppewo Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Looks like Arcadia updated the YF-19 development diary page with the final entries. http://arcadia.ac/yf19/diary/05/index.php ARCADIA @ARCADIA_Co_Ltd 2h 【お知らせ】 本日16時頃、「マクロスYF-19」特設ページの開発日誌（最終回）を公開予定！みすたーＫのこだわりを是非チェックしてみて下さいね！ http://arcadia.ac/yf19/ Quote
Renato Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Oh my god, the pilot figures are poseable!! Jan/Yang can move his arm and Isamu can turn his head!! That's incredible! EDIT -- Also, fold booster attachment parts confirmed, for use with the Yamato one! Edited March 27, 2014 by Renato Quote
Falcon18 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Poseable pilot figures. Just wow. This purchase is getting more and more awesome! Want it nowwww Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 okay, this has probably been covered before, but in case I missed it, please humour me..Do the wings actually extend like that?! Or did they remove a part to show how the inner mechanism works?That looks fragile and awkward..hope it's at least made of die-castAlso nice hint for the fold booster at the end. Quote

That's the method they've come up with to support high-speed mode. I'm still skeptical it's a good idea. Quote
spanner Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 OMG!!! It's getting so close I can almost smell its plastically goodness!! Seeing that vacant space in my display cabinet for it is starting to drive me bonkers! Gahhh hurry up already and release it!! Quote
spanner Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 I've thrown every box away. All fifty of them... (God, I have fifty of these things!?) ahhh no way! You really threw out all of them!? I have about 30 I think & got all the boxes! Gotta be worth something in the future surely! Quote

I don't collect things because I think they'll be worth more in the future. I collect things I like and will keep. Quote
