Falcon18 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 All the SG people nice to know. Close, I was eyeing that SSP too. But decided to hold back for a reissue. Was so tempted to sniper it. Haha. Nice grab though. I'm wondering now.. Where else are you all finding these valks locally? So far I've only seen csc, plaza, tfh. Havent seen any of the more popular valks around. Then again.. I dont try to search much since all that I've seen are pretty steep. Online's cheaper anyway. Just pm if possible so we dont derail this any further
Reïvaj Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Like I said, with something nearly cost 400SGD, I rather blow it on 2 more CF 25A Renewal valk. Their prices on the Vf-1J 30th Anniversaty Hikaru is also abit on the steep side, but not steep until I cannot consider it. Hmmm........ I saw this one today, have a look: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/surugaya-a-too/item/10738314-0/
TCracker Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 oh, I already have the 30th anniversary one. my fault as I was not clear and specific, I meant the normal hikaru vf-1j with the 30th anniversary sticker on the box.
skullmilitia Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Damn! DHL from Mandrake was a 2 day delivery! It was only 30$! I love shipping my stuff to work! VF-25F renewal! Woot ** spot saved for pic**
erikos0311 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Damn! DHL from Mandrake was a 2 day delivery! It was only 30$! I love shipping my stuff to work! VF-25F renewal! Woot ** spot saved for pic** That's pretty dang quick! I didn't know you where looking for one, I just traded my 2nd copy renewal like 2-3 weeks ago! O_o lol If you don't mind me asking, how much?
skullmilitia Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 It was 130$, but it's definitely used. But the joints are tight so I can't complain. I never bothered with DHL because I figures it's more expensive. But apparently DHL has a main Route from Tokyo to CT, and if you have a business address, it's 50% less than Residential delivery. I got the shipping notice yesterday morning, and by the time I left work A text from DHL saying delivery scheduled for tomorrow. I was like damn!
erikos0311 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 good price all around. My renewal was MIB, with everything sealed, I had it up for sale for a while on the forums but got no interests, all of a sudden I got an offer for a straight up trade for a Takara starscream MP(grey/dark version) which in my opinion was a pretty decent fair deal, so i went with it & got to say , Im pretty satisfied with the deal. I just recently started to build my MP collection but Macross takes priority!! lol
SuperSenpai Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Nice deal on the 25F, I think I saw that one too. That's definitely the low end of the prices I've seen for the 25F on Mandarake. I bought one from them a while back for $150 MISB. I figured I got a good deal since that was about what it retailed for. But I've seen them list it for higher too -- I think there's one there now that's been warming the shelf for a while at $220.
erikos0311 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Awesome jefuemon ! Can wait to see the end results !!!
erikos0311 Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Got some goodies in the mail yesterday! My 1st Resin kit & tigertrack mp! Really looking forward to this build & I've got a couple diorama ideas brewing up in my head!! Hopefully I can get it started before I go out on leave for the holidays!! O_o !!!

Gakken85 Posted November 17, 2013 Author Posted November 17, 2013 Cool. I gotta get a canon fodder some day.
skullmilitia Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I was waiting to see if someone from here was gonna grab it. It was a good price!
DyNo Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I was waiting to see if someone from here was gonna grab it. It was a good price! Yeah I've been trying for a while to get one for a decent price.
eggy99 Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 This just arrived from Rakuten In the end it was only $20 more than pre-ordering the May 2014 re-release (compared to preordering from NY or using Tenso to buy from Tamashii directly), and I just couldn't wait!
spanner Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Pre-ordered me a Arcadia VF-19 a while back.. got a Yamato 1/60 v2 VF-1S Hikaru Ichijo on its way ($150 shipped) and a Yamato 1/60 VF-19P Planet Zola Patrols Color (price unknown, gift from GF)
senzan Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) 30th VF-1J arrived - tis a gorgeous valk. The quality of these toys has improved so much over the last 5+ years. Can't wait to see what Arcadia has in store for us in future Edited November 19, 2013 by senzan
M'Kyuun Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 Received my Super Parts for my renewal VF-25G last week, got an Arcadia YF-19 pre-ordered, and I'm expecting a 1/60 V2 Roy Fokker VF-1 to ship from HLJ this month (projected).
DyNo Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 I just received my 30th Anniversary valk from Hobby Search today.
XFJ-01A Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 Just closed the deal on Hutch's VF-1S with Strike Packs. Just waiting on his delivery confimation.
miriya Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I got a bishujo wonder woman (mk1). Love it.
SuperSenpai Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 C'mon peoples, this thread is not nearly as fun if you simply post that you bought something and don't provide pictures!
skullmilitia Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Here's my two be arrivals. Sadly one got Yamato'd! Hoping I can glue the broken pieces, drying now.
Valkyrie addict Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Amazing how chunky the old 1/60 looks now. what part broke? was it the neck hinge? if it is, glue wil not hold, there's a shapeways replacement.
XFJ-01A Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Here's my two be arrivals. Sadly one got Yamato'd! Hoping I can glue the broken pieces, drying now. That.....looks painful.
close313 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I dont understand why they made it so hard to pop the neck on the v1. First time i handled it i thought i was going to break it! Seeing how tight it is, i hope your glue is strong enough
barurutor Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Back from HK, here's what I found after a quick pass (~1 hour) of Sino Centre and CTMA Centre: Edited November 21, 2013 by barurutor
anime52k8 Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Here's my two be arrivals. Sadly one got Yamato'd! Hoping I can glue the broken pieces, drying now. Personally, I'd leave it as is. it'll make an interesting display with the Arcadia YF-19.

I thought That piece was for the VF-19's?The glue worked but it's in forever fighter mode. Which is fine because every other mode is a floppy failure. Edited November 21, 2013 by skullmilitia
