It makes me wonder (or wish) if there was a stand like the Tamashii Trident that some of us use for HMR that’d be large enough to handle 3 valks of DX size. Would a Yeti stand base work with 3 arms? Expand I know the YetiStand works great with Arcadia's VF-0S. You can probably use it with 2 VF-0S since they're both the same size. But I think the DX VF-1J is much heavier so I won't suggest to use it for 3 DX VF-1J's. Probably 2 YetiStands will suffice just to be safe.

VF-1 looks great when displayed in multiples. Now Spanner just need to get 6 more. Don't you agree, @spanner? Quote

spacemanspiff Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Howdy all! First time on these Macross forums, and first time buying a Robotech/Macross Valkyrie. This Bandai DX VF-1J is amazing! This piece is light years beyond some of my current transforming robot collection. This piece belongs in a museum! Welcome to my '80s childhood collection! Wow! Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Gizmoduck FTW! You picked a great valk to start your collection. Don’t forget to preorder a set of missiles Quote
Baedal Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Nippon Yasan still doesn't send mine. Someone else? Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 NY shipped mine last week. I think a couple other folks chimed in that theirs shipped as well. You may want to submit a support ticket. Quote
Baedal Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 They answered my tickets apologizing for the inconvenience, but still nothing, I bought 4. Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) NY can be hit or miss in the customer service department. Some will apologize for them more than others; but by and large, if they are communicating with you then you will probably receive your order (when is another question). Only NY can offer more info.

Jeremy007 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 My 1j from amiami finally arrived today. i sold all my 1:48 valks years ago when i started collecting the 1:60 v2's....i forgot just how big 1:48 valks are. I share all the pros and cons already stated in this thread so i will keep this short. Its gorgeous and very well built. It looks great on a shelf. I am glad i got one and i will get the hikaru 1s if released but thats probably it. I prefer my yamato/arcadia 1:60's and i don't see them going anywhere/being replaced anytime soon. Quote

seti88 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 (edited) Awesome! What a happy coincidence that battroid mode fits in the cockpit! now do one with the KC Hikaru pilot sitting on a 1/48 DX! Or standing facing the battroid! Edited January 14, 2019 by seti88 Quote
