VALKYRIE ACE PILOT Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 I think I Could pick the blue 202 option for my Original HM Max however it is from the very first HM releases (those with the non-removable nosecone) so, I want to know if it would be compatible and also I noticed from the FEXTHOBBY page product photos, a booster is missing for the 202 armor....Will they only include what you see on those pics? Can somebody here advise on my inquiries ?..Thanks in advance guys.. Quote

Still might get the 102F for my single battroid valk, a CF VF-1A but the lack of the full set of options is rather unfortunate. Quote
Arthurius Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Ok, well, went with your suggestions for the 102F over the 102. So now i got 2 armors on order, the 000 and the 102F. Now all i am missing is the actual CF valk.... Quote

chyll2 Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Yahoo Auction only work to people located in Japan. For it to work on people outside Japan, we use proxy services like FromJapan or Buyee (there are actually more proxy site that caters to Japan shopping). you pay for the item, domestic shipping (seller to proxy handler), the proxy rates and of course, international shipping.

Arthurius Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 (edited) Per Fexthobby on Facebook Missiles from HMR figures can be installed on OWL-ONE-000 armour !

Expand Slave VI is correct in saying that 3rd party stuff (especially TFs) tend to not get released on the date as planned hence the wording "ETA" is used. A fair amount of people still use the "ETA date of release" as the actual official release day; however in reality, its usually two/three weeks after the ETA. Quote

ScrambledValkyrie Posted April 18, 2018 Posted April 18, 2018 Just ordered the 101 and 102F, for the best combination of parts. I'll probably put one the 102 on a spare CF 1A and the 101 on a spare Hikaru 1J. This may be obvious to some, but I just realized that the numbers of the armor sets are apparently supposed to be the modex numbers on the corresponding valkyrie. Quote
sh9000 Posted April 18, 2018 Posted April 18, 2018 I might paint over the 101 and 102’s on the leg armors. Quote

I like what I'm seeing even if it's just a direct upscale of the 1/100 version. Though please let them know to make the other armaments available individually.
