True....maybe I'll get lucky and HLJ will heavily discount the Nexx -2SS by Friday to make up for the late VF-4 book! Quote

I can appreciate that it's now the middle of summer vacation here, but it's bloody annoying that not only does the publisher's HP, but also major retailers like Amazon and Rakuten are still listing the 08/09 release date! Anyhow, here's a linky with the "revised" publication date: http://mac-log.com/zassi/4048 Quote
jvmacross Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 It's a tradition for this series to never meet it's initial release date... Quote

Mommar Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 I'm legitimately stoked for this release. I love how they attempt to take a real-world approach to all of this nutty transforming Airplane stuff. I want to see what crazy crap they come up with for variants. Quote
jvmacross Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 Wonder if they hint at the next release...although it would make sense for the next issue to cover the VF-31 and SV-262.... Quote
spanner Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 I'd still love to see a VF-17 / 171 combined issue! I think there would be more than enough material on them to justify their own book. VF-27 would be great! they could even do a combined VF-3000, VF-5000 & VF-11 book! If they ever do a SV-262 then im sure they will include older SV variants.. so many possibilities! Quote
jvmacross Posted August 11, 2016 Posted August 11, 2016 That's a good idea on the SV line of variable fighters....not that many, so may as well add them all in one book.... Quote
NZEOD Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) Macross Master File Antagonists - SV series, Civilian Merc/Pirate variants, Zentraedi and Meltrandi Pods and Flyers We can dream I guess Edited August 12, 2016 by NZEOD Quote
jvmacross Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 Oh well....couldn't wait any longer on the book so had my HLJ PW stash shipped....on the bright side I'll finally get that clearance-priced Arcadia VF-4G delivered... Quote
VF-1A Grunt Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 That's a bummer on the timing - I just got my payment request from HLJ for the VF-4 Master File book! Quote
spanner Posted August 12, 2016 Posted August 12, 2016 HLJ just took payment for the Master File! woo! Quote
spanner Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) eagerly awaiting the shipping notice! if they ship it first thing Monday then it should arrive by weeks end! Just in time to enjoy all its glorious pictures (seeing I cant read a word of Japanese) over the weekend! Edited August 13, 2016 by spanner Quote

They already did the Sv-51 in the VF-0 book. On 8/12/2016 at 10:06 PM, spanner said: HLJ just took payment for the Master File! woo! Same here! I'm glad I waited to ship a bunch of other stuff... the Sazabi Master Archive, my Evolution Toy VF-2SS Faerie and Nex types, and now Master File. Quote

True, as with others in other masterfile books but it was only a relatively brief mention.. And seeing that the SV-51 was the other 50% of the Valkyrie action in the series I think it deserves its own book. Quote

I think you're thinking of the VF-4's appearance in at least one of the VF-1 books. The SV-51 section in the VF-0 book is quite substantial. But I agree, more on it, and all the other non-hero Valkyries, the better! Quote
jvmacross Posted August 14, 2016 Posted August 14, 2016 Zentraedi Mech book would be nice.... But this one will do for now I suppose.... Quote
spanner Posted August 14, 2016 Posted August 14, 2016 yeah its a half dozen pages which is ok I guess but still deserves its own book.. surprised they didn't do a book for it straight after the VF-0 book.. Quote
spanner Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 sooo.... anyone who made payment for this book receive a shipping notice or anything yet?? Quote

spanner Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Speak of the devil.. yep Just got mine now! Hehe! Quote
Mommar Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Took HLJ long enough to finally ship this damn thing. Quote
no3Ljm Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 I got jealous of you guys so I ordered the VF-4 at HLJ even though it's already says 'backordered'. Quote
spanner Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 wooot! can't wait to see the gorgeous pictures in this book! tracking says eta Tuesday next week.. Quote
jvmacross Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 backordered already? One on Mandarake if anyone is interested.... https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1049064730&ref=list Quote
spanner Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Gee that was quick! Someone offloaded their copy already! There you go Noel! You can cancel your backorder with HLJ and buy it from Mandarake! Hehe! Quote
hal9000 Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Ordered mine from CD Japan, with the latest Walkure CD. It shipped Tuesday, I have hopes of reading and listening Friday. Still showing in stock shipping late August, that's the same it said when I ordered and it shipped. http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOBK-1969318 Quote
jvmacross Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Cheaper at Mandarake and they still have it.... It's all about the toy collecting! https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1049064730&ref=list Quote
hal9000 Posted August 19, 2016 Posted August 19, 2016 Just got it. Its my first master file, thicker than I thought. But a quick flip at work tells me I need to get all the others. Quote
