SiniStar Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 Has anyone been to HLJ.com recently? They have listed for pre-order the Yamato 1/48 scale Max and Millia Super VF-1Js. One is supposed to be released in March and one is supposed to be released in April. Quote
UN Spacy Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 ......they're selling for $186.00 a pop too. Must resist urge to max out credit card. Quote
Felix Posted January 16, 2004 Author Posted January 16, 2004 The thing that really hacks me off about the crack that is the Yamato VF-1 is that like any good dealer Yamato didn't give me the first taste for free................. Oh Well..............It is only money.......... Quote
tom64ss Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) My wallet's crying already. edit: Dammit, I just bought the 1/60 versions. Edited January 16, 2004 by tom64ss Quote
pfunk Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 My wallet's crying already. edit: Dammit, I just bought the 1/60 versions. Hell no on the supers, im going fastpackless from now on Quote
Draykov Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) HOLY FLIRKING SHNIT!!! My prayers are answered...and yet...I'm already in the hole because of Yamato...or maybe it's my lack of self-control. Anywho... Ah, the joys of collecting. Edited January 16, 2004 by Draykov Quote

Hurin Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) crap. Nevermind. Someone posted it. Though their subject heading leaves something to be desired Looks like my errant new topic has been assimilated into this one. Cool. At least all my linking won't go to waste. Draykov over at the TMP Anime Forums has pointed out that HLJ has the Pre-orders up for The Max and Milia TV-scheme 1/48 VF-1Js. Apparently, they will ship with FAST Packs. Though, of course, a non-FAST Pack version may be made available. Looks like Max in April. Milia in March. Though, of course, I wouldn't bet on those release dates. Pretty cool.

tom64ss Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 ....recockuless I thought my friends and I were the only people who use that expression. Quote
Mechafan Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 Yup should have know this was going to happen soon. Yamato wants us all to stay broke. I these are going to look sweet. I hope they post a picture soon. Quote

F360° Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 so i guess the next on the list is the VT-1? or VF1D? Quote
Hurin Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 Ah yes. But of course, I didn't see this thread before I saw your thread there. "Yamato 1/48 Valkyries". . . you'd think Max and Milia would deserve better. H Quote
Draykov Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) so i guess the next on the list is the VT-1? or VF1D? or VE-1, or VF-1A CF, or Max VF-1S, or VF-1A Kakizaki, or... you'd think Max and Milia would deserve better Edited January 16, 2004 by Draykov Quote
Hurin Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 so i guess the next on the list is the VT-1? or VF1D? Or the GBP. . . or the Max 1A TV. . . or the Cannon Fodder. . . or the Kakizaki TV. . . or the Kakizaki DYRL. . . My mone is on CF. But, well. . . it's silly to say anything for certain right now. Not that that will stop anyone. H Quote
Godzilla Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 My wallet's crying already. edit: Dammit, I just bought the 1/60 versions. WAHOOO! The moment I have been waiting for. I been waiting for M&M supers. BTW, that is the exact reason why I did not buy the 1/60 versions. Quote
rnurmin Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 Come to think of it, it should be easy for Yamato to create them by using the same design on Rick's 1/48 VF-1J. They only need to do one thing: replace the color. The only problem is they are charging for more. Man, talk about business strategies Quote
Nightbat Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 WHOOOOOOSSSSHHHHH *sound of my money being flushed down the toilet O well,... too bad the preorder button is missing in the Millia But preordered Max anyway Quote
bandit29 Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 The only problem is they are charging for more. Man, talk about business strategies Blame that on currency exchange rates not Yamato. The MSRP of 19800 yen is the same as the Hikaru VF-1J FP. Not too surprising that these were coming. I'll be passing on these...I have enough 1/48s. Quote

Yep, the currency exchange rates really suck now... Those max and millias are going to cost... -K Quote
EXO Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 I hate to do this to you, Kev, but I'm gonna have to have Blaine do the old voodoo on you... Blaine, just sign for the chickens when they get there... j/k Quote
HG Blows Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 Hah! Yamato has no grasp on me. I resisted the 1/48 Hikaru VF-1J, and I will resist these as well. Quote
HG Blows Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) Hah! Yamato has no grasp on me. I resisted the 1/48 Hikaru VF-1J, and I will resist these as well. Woops, double post. Edited January 16, 2004 by HG Blows Quote
Aegis! Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 Is anyone really surprised by this ? not me anyway , these were pretty visible a long time ago. I think I may get the Millia 1J w/o FP of course. Hey G , are they gonna be released with the very same hands as Hikaru´s 1J ? Quote
Anubis Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 (edited) SWEEEEEEEEEEET!!! No way in hell I can afford them, but I am very happy to see them coming. May the next one be a CF finally. The 1/60 D model is back too at HLJ. Edited January 17, 2004 by Anubis Quote
TheLoneWolf Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 The mystery of Graham's signature revealed perhaps????????????? LOL! Looks like it! Like I said before, HLJ and other Japanese sites are the places to go for scoops, not MW. Anyways, it's good to see more TV Valks get released. With the exception of the CF, the 1/48 releases closely mirror the 1/60 release order. Quote

We'll see in a few days if Graham still shows us his mystery pics at the planned date wether this was the big secret. Something tells me no but we'll see. It's still good news either way. Quote
izzyfcuk Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 omg! with the release of these two babes, im so dead! Quote
moose Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 I only got one problem with that, the paint on the bandi looks so much better I like the shine it has. I am referring to the picture in the toy review section. Quote
gnollman Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 Sweet... I've been holding out on the Max and Millia 1/60s just in case.... Hopefully my cash flow will be in better shape come spring.... Quote
VF-1Guy Posted January 17, 2004 Posted January 17, 2004 Anyways, it's good to see more TV Valks get released. With the exception of the CF, the 1/48 releases closely mirror the 1/60 release order. Replace the CF with the low-vis and the release orders are very similar. I bet these will look really nice, but I'm going to have to pass. I think 5 1/48s are enough until something different comes along (VT, VE or 1D). Quote
