wmkjr Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Thanks Spanner! I am extremely grateful to my friend for selling me his VF-4G, and glad to be part of the VF-4 owners club. Now that my quest is over, I don't know what to do with myself. What to hunt down next...? Now you gotta start rearranging those detolf displays again to find the perfect spot.
Gakken85 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 I'm torn on it, as I hate bat mode for the VF-4, but love the fighter. I'm also not a huge video game guy, so it's not $400-500 bucks worth of toy for me. I think Arcadia will make a new one at some point, especially if Bandai pressures them and they run out of SDF stuff to print up.
Saburo Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) 1:1 VF-1s Yes! that would go well with this. Once I figure out how to buy one and get it over here. Now you gotta start rearranging those detolf displays again to find the perfect spot. Sigh, yeah... now I have to rethink the setup. I'll just put the box in the detolf.

I don't think the Bat mode is all that nice, but fighter mode is beautiful. Which the mode all my valks are displayed in. It was also at a price I could not pass up on.

Gakken85 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) I think that the Bat mode is a cool bridge to the VF-25's with the uniboob. So it would be a nice middle placement between your VF1s and VF-25s Glad you got a deal Edited January 4, 2015 by Gakken85

McFly!! Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Congrats, Saburo! =) Wonder if Hikuro would ever consider working on a 1:1 valk... Hehehe he did a great job with his PG Unicorn
Saburo Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Congrats! What's next you ask, well another VF-4G of course! -b. Thanks KB! I was lucky to find 1, maybe in 2 years I'll find another. Congrats, Saburo! =) Wonder if Hikuro would ever consider working on a 1:1 valk... Hehehe he did a great job with his PG Unicorn Thank McFly! It would be nice to see a 1:1 scale VF-1 in Battroid mode.
ChaoticYeti Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I can't imagine you will keep the VF-4g in the box. Excited for pics!
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I can't imagine you will keep the VF-4g in the box. Excited for pics! is there an adapter to put the box on the stand jk! yeah, it would be hard to resist to keep in the box. Edited January 5, 2015 by davidwhangchoi
ChaoticYeti Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I believe it did come with Yamato stand adapters. Courtesy of Jenius at anymoon.com Edited January 5, 2015 by ChaoticYeti
Saburo Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 @CY and @DWC Ok, here is my VF-4G in the display case.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 hahahaha too funny. that cardbox does need a stand to show off it's curves.
Saburo Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 hahahaha too funny. that cardbox does need a stand to show off it's curves. That would be good to make it look like it is climbing or diving for an attack. That's not a bad idea.....a box adapter. Brand specific box adapters? Bandai, Yamato, Arcadia and Lego boxes? j/k That works, Saburo! hehehe.. Ok, here it is right out of processing.
ChaoticYeti Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I wish they weren't so expensive. It is a beautiful design, but I don't have $600-$1k nostalgia for it.
Saburo Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I wish they weren't so expensive. It is a beautiful design, but I don't have $600-$1k nostalgia for it. I searched for a while and wouldn't pay the current price for VF-4G. I got lucky and got this one for a deal from a friend. Can't wait for the lightbox photos! I'll post some photos of the VF-4G I took back in 2014. The VF-4G in the pictures it belongs to Valkyrie Magnus. I'll take proper photos of mine soon. Edited January 5, 2015 by Saburo
derex3592 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I need to give my 4G the YetiStand treatment and get some pics up
ChaoticYeti Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I can't wait. Who is gonna post it first, you or Saburo?
derex3592 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Well, I have the GF coming over for dinner tonight so I gotta give her some time... otherwise I would do it tonight after work... ..women...
Saburo Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) I usually will setup the photo booth for photos on the weekends, my weekdays are pretty hectic. Edited January 7, 2015 by Saburo
Falconkpd Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I just scored an MISB Yamato VF-19 Fire Valkyrie from a fellow Macross Worlder. It's an amazing figure.
spanner Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) such a lovely bird! Edited January 7, 2015 by spanner76
Falcon18 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Ahh the 4G so pretty in Fighter... but so, so expensive..
Saburo Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 such a lovely bird! Yes she is and soon she will get some camera time. Ahh the 4G so pretty in Fighter... but so, so expensive.. Yes in fighter mode the 4g is quite nice.
no3Ljm Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) 2015 has started out with a bang for me, because I just obtained a brand new unopened VF-4G and the best part about it was I bought it locally! :D My friend, I refer to him as the Chogokin Master because collects Chogokin/Super Robots (his collection is something to behold), he decided to sell his VF-4G to me for a great price so he can focus on getting more Chogokin/Super Robots. He does have some Macross related stuff left. *snip* Ok, here it is right out of processing. w00t! w00t! Finally Saburo! Behold, your own VF-4G. Congrats bro! Any more leftovers from your friend? Anyways, my only Christmas and New Year haul... She's pretty, right? Esp displayed besides the Makuros. My only Minmay figure. By the way, belated MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone! More MACROSS in 2015! Edited January 7, 2015 by no3ljm

Are you sure you're not hiding anything else?
no3Ljm Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year too Noel! That's a pretty purchase indeed! Are you sure you're not hiding anything else? Hahaha! You got me brouken. I'm just too shy to post my Hot Rod(imus) purchases late Nov/early Dec since this is not the TFworld. Macross love bro. But don't worry, once I got time to take photos of them I will post it here.
brouken Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Hehe, I knew you couldn't have gone through the holiday season without getting a few "gifts". Good to have you back!
xrentonx Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Oh, I got delivery on those really cool Four Horsemen Ravens figures from their Kickstarter. I'll try and snap a pic this weekend. I sent about $400 on those figures and their accessories. Really happy with them so far.
Saburo Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 w00t! w00t! Finally Saburo! Behold, your own VF-4G. Congrats bro! Any more leftovers from your friend?

More MACROSS in 2015! Thank you, I am very happy to have a VF-4G now and he does have some valks left but I think he'll keep those. Nendo Minmay is so cute! Happy New year!
abbadon Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Some purchases I made at the tail end of the year... It's been a good year of collecting. Looking forward to more this 2015!
brouken Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Thank you Mandarake for my VF-19S!Docker may be a jerk, but he's got a mean ride. I actually like the 19S over the 19Kai. My pathetic phone pic does not do justice to this bird:
