YF-29 Durandal Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Ohhh nice find! I've been looking for one of these. Care to point me in a direction? On ebay... I bought mine for $16.50 + $8 for the shipping.
happy_spike Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 My latest acquisitions. My Valkyrie squadron on my desk at work. the VF-2ss is the latest. I want to get all the Bandai gashapon fighter collections so this collection will grow.
Raya1823 Posted December 21, 2013 Posted December 21, 2013 Ok, so this is my first post here but just wanted share the "fam". I'm still a noob collector and a long way from catching any of you on here, lol. But here you go. Looks like i need a better pic, lol. Well more to come. Thanks again MW, without you i wouldn't have some of these.

Kanedas Bike Posted December 22, 2013 Posted December 22, 2013 Cool pictures - but between the "face" and those color schemes, those two Valks deserve to be on a shelf next to one another. -b.

skullmilitia Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 Finally!!! $96 bucks Nice work, I just nabbed one for 100$ To bad it's a scheme from a OVA that shows it for like 5 seconds lol.

Thanks David. Here are some pictures from my Droid phone. Overall its in pretty good condition. Merry Christmas! Only found one flaw. One of the head laser got a stress mark shown here. Its funny, my VF-1j Max has the same issue. I guess they are a true pair. Edited December 24, 2013 by dapro

I guess they are a true pair. thanks for the pictures dapro, yeah i have that stress mark on one of my vf-1j's mass production as well. it looks like a few may have shipped in a way that the head laser got crushed in the packaging if the head is housed a bit crooked is the plastic tray.
dapro Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) The head laser is really tight. I thought the previous owner might have try adjusting the laser with the tip of the laser causing the stress. David, I read if you use a hair dryer or a heat gun, you can reduce or remove the stress mark. I am kind of chicken trying it though. haha Edited December 24, 2013 by dapro
aaajin Posted December 24, 2013 Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Man that is sweet looking. I can't wait for mine to get here. The fighter mode is beyond sweet! Only complaint is the legs are slightly loose in battroid, or the upper body is heavy..reminds me of van damme's epic split when the legs slide outward on the table. Got it from Maiden Japan for $125 shipped! So far so good, cant find any major complaints. Enjoying my christmas gift, in batroid and gerwalk mode : Edited December 29, 2013 by aaajin
slick_bricks Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 After seeing DyNo collection I manage to track down VF1j stealth I just got one of these w/super-strike set. It is my first valk and I LOOOVE it, seriously the biggest box ever with the coolest toy! Such a sleek fighter, everything I dreamed of flying as a kid (and still do).
skullmilitia Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 It's a beautiful bird, just wish the 48's weren't so floppy!

Jefuemon Posted December 25, 2013 Posted December 25, 2013 Actually arrived Saturday, but didn't get them until yesterday since I was out of town.
connor99 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 It's a beautiful bird, just wish the 48's weren't so floppy! Floppy?! Got me 4 1/48's and none of them are. And I've had mine for at least 7 years now.
aaajin Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Floppy?! Got me 4 1/48's and none of them are. And I've had mine for at least 7 years now. True dat. Although Ive sold most of my collection and now trying to re-collect .. ah the vicious cycle of Macross hobby ..

skullmilitia Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 I love buying stuff from Mandrake that says used and "box damage" that ends up being sealed and with no apparent box damage. 120$ shipped is a steal, especially since the shipping was DHL 3 day! Now to wait for a 17' to show up for a good deal.
