Gakken85 Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Yeah the flaw in your logic is that that's prices from 2008 before the economy took a crap. http://www.hlj.com/product/ymt00080/Sci Back then Yamato was asking $90 for a VF-1 and $40 for Supers. Since then there has been the global collapse, yamato went out of business more or less, and inflation. Going on Valk prices it's almost 60% increase based off what Arcadia is asking for the yf-19 ect. I think they will be at least $80 bucks on the low end. They seem to like throwing in extras too and asking more + smaller runs which could jack up the price too. I'm comfortable in thinking they will be at least $250-260 and stand alone supers being $80-100. Maybe with a discount closer to $240 for the bird. They aren't going to ask less than what supers are selling for on the secondary market which is around $110, depending. It's still a considerable amount of plastic. Bandai charges $70ish for their supers and they tend to flux up and down depending on demand and parts. All this is before shipping mind, so that's at least $35-40 bucks for a double box. But hey! I hope you're right. I'd like to get a max and maybe another milia so the cheaper the betta. Edited June 29, 2014 by Gakken85
sreichma Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 I think you scored big Gakken, i don't think either are ever going to be reissued.
ULessa Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) How are those display cases? Edited June 30, 2014 by ULessa
The Old Man Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Getting a bit crowded in there. Still got to squeeze in Max when he turns up.
The Old Man Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Old man, where you pickup the vf-1d at? It was on eBay for reasonable money. Not the 30AE with option parts unfortunately, but it'll do.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Splurge this week O_O that's alot of yf-25, i think you're the king of cf- 171's
technoblue Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 I keep saying this, but I need to pick up a couple display cases to declutter my house. There are Valkyries everywhere! And here is another of the Excalibur (I've been messing with it a lot, learning the transformation on holiday this week):
Kanedas Bike Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 ^nice pick-ups guys!!!! @Duymon, that's how my first shipments of VF-25A's looked. -b.
ULessa Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) Splurge this week O_O So jealous There really nice display cases worth every penny at $70. Of course you could get a Detlof for $50 but I wanted something for my desk at work. Each display case has 8 LEDs and they can be powered by either battery or USB. The lights can be controlled on the front bezel by way of a touch surface and it has a mirrored back panel which you can flip to a plain white background. Which ones do you recommend for Valks and where did you get it? Found some for $90 which is abit much. Edited June 30, 2014 by ULessa
Gakken85 Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 Battroid = instant space. I need a 1d at some point but I'm on the hunt for an ostrich first. Groan.
Valkyrie addict Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 I don't like the frontier valks, but all the stuff you guys are getting and making me hella jealous. Enjoy!
spanner Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 picked up a set of Michael Super parts, Ozma Armor parts and a YF-29 Isamu Dyson! The Ozma armor parts were more expensive than the YF-29!! pretty crazy seeing how the Isamu was MISB!
Falcon18 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Probably cause there's more Isamu 29s lying around as compared to Ozma's armour. This came in today. Fast fast shipping. Arrived in 2 days.
spanner Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Probably cause there's more Isamu 29s lying around as compared to Ozma's armour. Absolutely! Worked good for me as the Isamu was only 17,300 yen delivered! Edited July 2, 2014 by spanner76
ULessa Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Absolutely! Worked good for me as the Isamu was only 17,300 yen delivered! Is this mandrake? May want another Isamu if its at that price shipped or something close
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) got a virgin road 1d but too lazy to post pics. i almost got every 1/60 rare valk i need. Edited July 2, 2014 by davidwhangchoi
spanner Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Is this mandrake? May want another Isamu if its at that price shipped or something close Got this one from Jungle, cheapest one on Mandarake is 17,000 if I remember correctly.
DuffCon Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Managed to snag this off eBay for a "reasonable" price. No shoulder cracks and the canopy is perfect! Edited July 3, 2014 by DuffCon
arrow Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Got this one from Jungle, cheapest one on Mandarake is 17,000 if I remember correctly. what is the site for Jungle?
charger69 Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Jungle is good I've got my super parts for VF-25F and VF-25S last week! Edited July 3, 2014 by charger69
The Old Man Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Jungle is indeed good... The Bandai Holy Grail itself! So happy right now. Though I'm sure I'll despair later when the credit card bill arrives.
Saburo Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Jungle is indeed good... image.jpg The Bandai Holy Grail itself! So happy right now. Though I'm sure I'll despair later when the credit card bill arrives. Congratulations!! Just keep looking at Ozma when you open up that cc bill.
Falcon18 Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 ^ hah. That makes it worthwhile indeed. Have the 25S next to you when the bill arrives. Use it to cover the amount you have to pay.
anime52k8 Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) The new girl I just got Tuesday; she's quite the big lady. (Pirate Ozma for scale) IMG_2865 by Mike - drowning in plastic, on Flickr Edited July 3, 2014 by anime52k8
no3Ljm Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Great hauls, everyone! "Play now, Pay later", Old Man. Good catch on the 25S.
Saburo Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) The new girl I just got Tuesday; she's quite the big lady. (Pirate Ozma for scale) IMG_2865 by Mike - drowning in plastic, on Flickr Nice! Space Pirate Captain Ozma and his well equipped Meltran friend. Edited July 3, 2014 by Saburo
Valkyrie Magnus Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Nice Old Man! I'm jealous of the VF-25S but not the cc bill Btw Anime that's a nice lady you got there! Edited July 3, 2014 by Valkyrie Magnus
Kanedas Bike Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Valkyrie Pirates and boobs. Hard to go wrong with that combo. -b.
