[chyll2]

finally someone caught up on our needs. I want some weapon on the DX toys

[Graham]

Yeah, seriously, need some wing weapons for the VF-19Advance.

[wmkjr]

I seriously need some armored parts for my VF-25

[pengbuzz]

I seriously need a pepsi, a 1/60 VF-1s and a 1/3000 Macross. Guess which one is the most likely to happen?

[Convectuoso]

Does anyone have the link for the fanracer?

[Xigfrid]

Am in for these Mde missiles! Even if the pylon breaks we can still print a replacement ! Lol

edit: I would also love to get the link of the "painted" fan racer.

I really hope that vf-1s KO doesn't keep the fast pack color as black with booms as green.

[sh9000]

I've got the items bookmarked but I'm going to wait a bit to buy them.  I've been spending a lot recently.

Is there a way to change the site language?

[CID_VII]

All I want is option parts and Super Strike <3

[MrBig]

Arcadia provides nice stickers that have a satin finish I wonder if these VFs will be cheaper quality or include them at all cuz I'm fine with stickers but they need to complement the figure and not look like pieces of plastic/vinyl.

Wow MDE's for $7.25, not bad.

Again, this is why am skeptical abt buying from these KO sellers...50 yuen seems to be booking price, not the final price. 
Not sure how they will charge later if the product is released..

Is exactly like you said. Is just booking price, they will charge you later. And they have a limited run.

But you can buy now others ko item, if you want to test the water first, like the yamato stand

Pricing says 200 Yuan or less with 50 being a deposit. Hopefully a lot less as I can't see myself paying about $30 bucks for 4 weapons parts.

Thanks for clarifying.

[jvmacross]

may as well wait until eBay gets flooded with Macross KO stuff and they can't shutdown the auctions quick enough....

I wonder how much eBay loses from Chinese scammers?

its the "charge me later with unknown price" part, that am not comfortable with. But thanks on the reminder on the KO yamato stand!

[no3Ljm]

Anyone tried to order those KO stands yet?

 

[spacemanoeuvres]

The accessories are quite tempting.  I'm kicking myself for skipping the yamato stands on jya for 4300 now that I see them everywhere for 8500-10000 plus shipping.  The mde  bombs would look sweet on the yf-30.  

I've been spending way too much lately so I'll wait until the KOs show up on jya or ebay before taking the plunge. 

[Sandman]

The accessories are super tempting for me as well. The price on the MDE bombs and missiles is what's holding me back. It seems really expensive for 4 missiles even for an non-KO release. The fact they are KO makes the price seem even more absurd. I'll probably still get a set though when things slow down here release wise. I recently bought a 171 armour set just to get these missiles. I have to say i'm quite pleasantly surprised how much fun these missiles have added to my displays.

I once mistakenly bought a KO figma figure. The worst thing about it ( apart from the face falling off the figure every now and then) was the stand. 

So if anyone thinks of getting a stand just to test the overall quality of these KOs, I wouldn't recommend it.

[Atheonyirh]

Cheaply made clear plastic is a bit of a different beast. Someone already posted a review of the launch arm stand and indicated it's surprisingly solid and hard to tell apart from the original.

[Darotower]

I hope the black super parts keeps in that colour for my VF-1S Low Visibility, I can imagine wearing those...

I haven't pulled a trigger on this one to try it but I would love to see that review. Any links? 

 

[spacemanoeuvres]

I'm interested in the stand review as well. What service do folks use to purchase items from toaboa?
