Bandai DX Chogokin 1/48 VF-1

[no3Ljm]

Damn it Bandai. I wasn't planning on getting this. 

 

 

But then... so basically, buying this would mean I'm completing all Hikaru's Macross ride in 1/48. Talk about killing two birds with one stone, huh.

Next question will be who among you guys is going to repaint one of their extra Super Parts to achieve this? 

C'mon now, you have to admit that one is a looker.

That is awesome, Bandai really went out of its way for this one. I see this 1D selling out quickly. Being broke right now is super poor timing, this is the one I've always wanted. 

Same here!! I'll have to pay scalper prices later

No thanks....I'll just wait for orange FP's on a Bandai DX Super-O!

Fan Racer? F yeah!!!!

Wow! Totally exceeded expectation. I was just hoping for the seats gimmick, but having the fan racer too is such a nice surprise.

Might not fit because the backpack folds differently on the Ostrich.

That's fine...I just want them to fit on a DX VT-1! 

You can do it Bandai!

Btw, WTF is Hikaru actually doing?

Is somebody in Bandai doing some subtle passive-aggressive dig?

 

 

---

At any rate, wonder if Bandai will offer a another separate TWE of just the nosecone/cockpit and other stuff to complete the classic diorama scene...

La siguiente pregunta será ¿quién de ustedes va a volver a pintar una de sus Super Partes adicionales para lograr esto? 

Vamos, tienes que admitir que uno es un espectador.

Wow! I was already in but that is more than I expected! The seats look awesome. I really didn’t think they were going to bother with the extended seats.

Yeah, that scalper price tag is going to hurt.

No one will be offering this one. Set up an address in Japan or buy a ticket there for the day of release.

I’m guessing the vouchers from NNG can work on the VF-1D order?  I’m only getting 2.

Does any web you please suggest?

[kyekye]

Never ordered from NinNin before. How is it compare to Nippon Yasan?

Random order cancellation due to product shortage?

Outrageous shipping?

Combine items to save on shipping?

..etc
