sh9000 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) I would buy a VF-9 and a VA-3. Edited November 7, 2015 by sh9000 Quote
jenius Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 We see supports on every prototype like ever, hardly something to be concerned with. As for the Regults, we don't know the plan yet. I agree that more accessories seemed a smart move though. Maybe there will be an add on set instead of only slightly different releases. We saw the slightly different technique didn't work for Toynami. I'm also hoping for a scout regult conversion kit. Quote
00Geass Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Just got my VF-1J GBP Hip connector is mis assemble and on backwards, thanks Bandai! Quote
Mommar Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 awesome! pls release it bandai and not just tease! Along with the regult variants as well please! hey that ryhmes on the other note... 5639b4975ffd9.jpg hope its not a sign of weighted arms and that a stand is hopefully not required in the final version..... It's a good sign the rest of the Regults and the Glaug will be released given the Regults are sold out everywhere (and I still haven't been able to preorder one.) Quote
calubin_175 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 If Arcadia goes down, then there will be no 1/60 SV-51 v2 and the next best potential toy would be 1/100 Hi Metal. I would also like to see an Armoured VF-11 if Hi Metal goes Macross 7, but I think only time will tell if they even decide to go outside of Original Macross and then current TV series. Maybe the Macross II VF-22S will be used to test the waters and they might only do protagonist VFs of the spin off series. Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Well they keep selling out so its a good thing. I think they should focus on hero mecha and do fan polls to choose the mecha that fans really want. Edited November 7, 2015 by VF-Zer0S Quote
Valkyrie Griffon Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Didn't even realize there was a Roy Strike Valk!!! Thankfully Nippon-Yasan is still taking preorders so I got mine in! I cannot believe how much support Bandai is showing for Macross all of a sudden. Yes obviously any of this can be dropped if sales slip but the fact that within about a year or two we could finally have all of the destroids, a Vf-2SS, the Flashback Vf-4G, and a Britai Figuarts is almost mindblowing!!! This is the kind of stuff that fans dream of and almost never happens unless you want 27 Hatsune Miku nendoroids. Quote
seti88 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 It's a good sign the rest of the Regults and the Glaug will be released given the Regults are sold out everywhere (and I still haven't been able to preorder one.) dont worry am sure some will turn up nearer release date...just keep eyes open!

jenius Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 After the Bandai HMR pricing was released I figured Toynami would cancel their comparatively terrible 1/100 offering but I see on eBay today that that product actually has materialized and, insanely, just about right when Toynami said it would. Quote
skullmilitia Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 It's ok, the Robotech kids will buy them, I mean the box says Robotech.The single figures are the only interesting thing that Toynami announced and they seem to be vapored. Quote
Loop Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 You mean the actual character figures? I thought those still looked kind of bad... Quote
skullmilitia Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 You mean the actual character figures? I thought those still looked kind of bad... That's why I said "Interesting" lol, Hopefully Bandai will support HMR with SHF. Quote
Loop Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) I thought they kinda did with the Britai they showed off with the pipe hitting kaki in the head. Hopefully it happens. *edit* I think you mean the hero figures, I was more in to the Zentran figures that scale with the VF's. Edited November 8, 2015 by Loop Quote
koonfasa Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I think I might have to hunt Hikaru after market. I just got me some shadowtroopers. Quote
Lonely Soldier Boy Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 Tried Mandarake for the GBP but they aren't taking credit cards at the moment. Any other suggestions on where to get one before resorting to the scalpers? Thanks! Quote

Smacky Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Well, at this point seems like sales are doing great!!! I still can't get a VF-1S Hikaru anwhere! And I remembered also how hard it was to get the earlier VF-1S Roy. Even now they are pricy! It's back in stock again at HLJ. http://hlj.com/product/BANN01263/Act Quote
Mazinger Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 It's back in stock again at HLJ. http://hlj.com/product/BANN01263/Act And now it's gone... Quote
Smacky Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 I'm not sure if this e-store is reliable or not but they do have the Hikaru and Fokker available for PO. http://203.135.134.135/shop_ud/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=728 http://203.135.134.135/shop_ud/store/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=694 Quote

I remember asking that specific store over at the FAQ thread and so far I didn't getn any replies so I assumed nobody bought it from there yet. I even PM'ed Gundam@EFSF about that store since he's also from Hong Kong and I didn't get any reply from him. I'm planning also to buy something from there but since there's no feedback don't want to risk $250 for now. Quote
mickyg Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 HK $810 didn't come out too favourable in terms of Aussie dollars. In USD, that's nearly $105 and in YEN, 12,840. Seems a bit exorbitant. Quote
Mazinger Posted November 11, 2015 Posted November 11, 2015 More than a few eBay listings average around $120 US shipping included, which beats these. Quote

koonfasa Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 I think there'll be heaps, but I'm still holding on at the moment. Quote

Roy Focker Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I'd like to sample this line but I want to buy 1 enemy and 1 hero mecha at the very start. It doesn't like any of these are ever in stock. If you're lucky you might get one and that might be the only one. Quote
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I just picked up the GBP 1J, got it from the bay for about $115 shipped. Haven't really had a whole lot of time to mess with it.. I like it.. but its pretty pricey for what it is. I see prices for the Strikes climing much higher then what I paid.. As it is this guy will be used as a topper for my SDF Macross Pachislo.. Quote
microtree33 Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 I don't know if this has been addressed, but does anyone know how the HM-R Regults stand in the way of accessories? The preview pictures seem to indicate it will be pretty bare-bones. If it came with either of its missile packs, that would be very cool. Also seen hiding in one of the dioramas is a Nousjadeul-Ger. I can't tell if it's a resin prototype or a 3D printed prototype or something that is ready-ish for production. If anyone is able to eyeball it and figure out which it is, that would be great. I really dig the Nos-Ger as a design, but it seems to lack the relatively widespread popularity of the other Zentradi mecha. For anyone familiar with the show(s), is there a reason for this? Thanks.
