So finally got my first DX Chogokin!!

 

VF-1S Roy Focker Special. 
 

to update my situation I posted in another thread worried about my order being legit through LUNAPARK.

people had some bad package jobs from them, So what I did was emailed them before my purchase telling them my concerns. They offered to take note of my order number and be sure to package it well and I can safely say they did! I will include some pics of the packaging job.

Hands down the best VF-1 toy ever. Wish they'd do a 1/60 scale. These DX are some big toys!

Thanks, yeah I paid a pretty penny for it but I couldn’t pass it up.

I also was impressed with the size! Def bigger scale than most of my collection but I don’t mind it.

I’ve got Roy on the way from Luna Park as well; it definitely looks so good with the black and yellow.  I also just received my VF-1D from Luna Park this week too - packing seemed pretty good.  Also don’t be afraid to transform them - just take your time, don’t force anything, and you’ll be fine.  Gerwalk mode is easy - Battroid mode can be slightly finicky but there are good videos on YouTube that show how to do it properly.

You could also post how the Macross item arrives in this thread.  I’ll be posting in that thread around 2/9 when my package from Luna Park arrives.

Thanks guys!

@jenius - I've said it before and I'll say it again; THANK YOU for all your efforts on Anymoon.com. Very helpful and detailed reviews, love the comparisons between variants and different releases, and amazing transformation videos. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. #NotAllHerosWearCapes

That’s why you get more than one… 😁

Finally found an SDF-1 1/3000 I could afford (missing the booms from the lower rotational joint on up, and the carriers). Should be here sometime next week; then I can set about piecing together the last grail of my Macross collection.

(early b-day gift for next month)

That would be @jenius

Jenius review and transformation videos are always my go to when attempting to transform new variants cos it shows what are the tricky and critical areas to take note of

Which Shin Getter is better? I'm not really liking the color of the CCSToys one.. it just feels off.

My Getter Robo shelf is getting a kinda full. I'm going to need to expand.

Just got this SV-262 from Shawn with some crusty glue on one of the legs.  I managed to carefully pick it off after softening with goo gone, but it did take some paint with it.  The goo is gone tho.

Looks like someone glued on the super packs on that one.  Fortunately, black is fairly easy to touch up, and if you get a set of the packs yourself, it'll cover that entirely.

No question. Ex Gokin. It's not a great toy. But it's by far the best looking.

VF-31J Super parts arrived at last like five years late. ;)Cool but I kinda prefer the sleek look of bare VF31 tbh.
