microtree33 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Hello. The 1/60 VF-1D is the last standard VF-1 I don't have yet. The setup I'm thinking about getting is the orange V2.2 30th anniversary with DYRL Super Strike attached. In my head this is the most awesome VF-1 combo there could be, but I'd like to see pictures of it before I dump $200+ for the valk and $100+ for the parts in a year I could pick up a SV-262 or VF-31 for less money. Google image search was no help, so I'm hoping the MW community can lend a hand and post / send me some pics of this valk combo. I'm primarily interested in Battroid mode, but any and all pics would be appreciated. Thank you. Quote
barurutor Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 IMHO that's a good price for a 30th anniversary 1D. Quote

Hope this one from his site helps. In case you didn't like how it looks, just point to us that $200 v2.2 VF-1D and we will take good care of it. Edited March 21, 2016 by no3ljm Quote

It does look pretty cool, but not as cool as I thought it would be. I guess items you chase will always look better in your head than IRL. It's still great to see and it makes me wonder if there was ever a super strike 1D in the show? The only 1D with extra bits I know of is the Ostrich. I guess now I'll try Delta when it drops with the odd gerwalk only? VF-31 super parts. I think there's a pumpkin version there too so that should scratch that itch. Thanks again. Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Does that mean you're not interested anymore on that $200 VF-1D? PM me your source and we (it means 'I') will take good care of it. Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Dude should have never said "$200" and "v2.2 30th Anniversary VF-1D" in the same sentence. And unless the item is broken or damaged, micotree33, you have your answer, based on the responses in this thread, on whether or not you should spend the money. -b. Quote

derex3592 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 "I've got $50...who will give me $75???" Sounds like a damn auction around here! Quote

Well, that '$200' VF-1D v2.2 30th Anniversary version kinda piqued my interest plus the '$100' Super/Strike Packs. Quote
derex3592 Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 ohh I'm not hatin! I'd take the Super/Strike pack for $100 real damn quick! Quote
Mazinger Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Maybe I should file this under the noob questions, but just when in all Macross-dom did the VF-1D sport a strike pack on screen? Quote
anime52k8 Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 $299 is still cheaper than I've seen them listed. Arcadia, reissue this bitch! Quote
no3Ljm Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Hahaha! True. $299 is still cheap. But for sure we'll never know the outcome of this inquiry. Quote
Offswitch Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Watch, microtree33 is totally trolling us.... Nothing like a coveted out-of-print valk at a reasonable price to get our blood pumping, lol! But seriously, Arcadia, wtf... The VF-4G reissue was nice, but like anime52k8 said: time to re-release this beyotch (and other rare VF-1's)! Quote
Renato Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Thanks! Completely missed that pic. It does look pretty cool, but not as cool as I thought it would be. I guess items you chase will always look better in your head than IRL. It's still great to see and it makes me wonder if there was ever a super strike 1D in the show? The only 1D with extra bits I know of is the Ostrich. The Ostrich is not a VF-1D, it is a completely different valkyrie, the VT-1. It just has a similar paintscheme, at a glance. Quote
Garfinkel Posted March 22, 2016 Posted March 22, 2016 Maybe this is the one he is referring to.... http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=252298930275&alt=web Or not..... Quote
microtree33 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 Wow. Talk about blood in the water. You guys are like mecha collecting sharks with laserbeams attached to their fricking heads. I was guessing (why I put a + at the end) from a pricelist I made a while back that is clearly wildly out of date. Sorry for the confusion. Is the VF-1D reaching Elintseeker levels of rarity or something? I mostly only wanted it because it was orange and I didn't have that head type yet. In case anyone needs it here's a listing from Suruga-ya that is hopefully still valid for $284+ shipping/fees etc. http://www.suruga-ya.jp/kaitori_detail/602027214 Hopefully, that helps somebody out. Thanks again guy I quoted for the pic. Quote
Universe1010 Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 For everyone interested in getting reissues reach out to mrk_arcadia on twitter. The more who ask the likelihood is higher. I asked for a reissue of the m&m vf-1j and he messaged back saying if they are motivated to they may. Quote
