Because TV valks look totally different from each other. :rolleyes:

But, for instance, Max's TV VF-1A and VF-1J have more differences than just the head. That's what I don't like about DYRL valks.

I get where you're coming from... but even some TV Valkyries differ only by head.  ;)

Count me as another person that prefers Max in his 1A ride.

That's the bird where he established his reputation as a bad-ass ace.

That's the bird he was flying when he bested Milia.

I know the 1J's are the cool looking pair, but I still have a soft spot for the TV-Max 1A.

DYRL Max = Pyrrhic victory over Milia

TV Max = Pwns Milia

So, I’m a little late for ordering the Missile Set. Looks like Nin-Nin-Game and Nippon-Yasan have them up for pre-order still. Either one reliable? Both are pay upfront and I know there are a lot of sources that don’t have quantity for the pre-order and just hunt for it after release.

You may want to check the "For Sale & Trade" section of the forum to see if anyone is selling one first.  Make sure you do your research on the seller just in case.

NY is way more reliable than Nin-Nin.

Definitely in for the DX VF-1A Max and every toy in this line!  Best Macross toy ever.

I'm afraid I might be right behind you.  Getting the Max 1A pretty much guarantees I'll get a Kakazaki, should they make one.  And I'm still pretty interested in at least a super valkyrie of some variety.

Still on the fence about another GBP set.  My wallet is scared enough as-is.

I thought the 1J would be enough for me, but now I'm thinking Vermillion Squadron plus a Focker. I need to make more space >< lol

I think it will sell well. This kind of toy appeals to casuals and the Hik sold like gangbusters.  It's big, has metal, and looks amazing.  I don't know many people that wanted the Hik will double dip though...

BUT they are the same price as an Arcadia 1/60 give or take. To me it's a much better value.

The TV valks look great in Bat mode but, as fighters there is just too much white.  I am sure it was a conscience choice to keep animation simple but they look kind of boring.

That blue looks enticing. ;)

But I'm just glad that they've already built a VF-1A head. Just some few minor tweaks, I'm all ready to wait for Hikaru's 1A announcement. :rolleyes:

It does look really good, I’ll give it that. 

But I’m keeping my 1/48 collection SMALL. Too many scales already!

It looks too good to pass.

The 1A head and the blue/white contrast makes me drooling.

I really hope I will be lucky with the PO.

Manufacturer's suggested retail price: 19,440 yen (tax 8% included)

 

same price too, this is too good to be true

I'm sure for that price it's going to be a sweet deal if Bandai will continue to include those fancy VF-1 display stand.

^_^ Bandai's really going overboard with the new markings Strike right after just releasing the original 2 months ago. 

at least soul blue release was after 3 years.

Bandai already pulling the same bullsh!t with these missiles but i'm going to hold out until they announce a new markings exclusive vf-1. Then i'll prob start buying.
