I have the funny feeling that it may be the VT-1 (longest time onscreen) It's either the VT-1 or Hikaru's Strike 1s. The VF-4G was a model version that Hikaru was swooshing it in his quarters (before Minmay stepped in and then Misa followed a few minutes later) and the production version followed later. Did I get this one right? It's been awhile since I've seen DYRL. Quote
jenius Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 I think the VF-4 you're thinking of was in the TV show, I don't think that scene happened in DYRL. In the TV show it's a prototype VF-4, not the final product. The VF-4 then gets some actual airtime in Flashback 2012. As to which valk had the most screen time in DYRL, the VT-1 does feel like it gets a lot of airtime with them cruising around looking for survivors and all. I still think we're due for another Hikaru VF-1J reissue... probably PF,... probably with super parts or GBP... but I hope Arcadia just sticks with 2 seaters for the rest of the year. Quote

borgified Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 @jenius and @Shizuka the Cat : You're both correct. I knew it was somewhere, however it I couldn't remember which specific show. Quote
no3Ljm Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 The one displayed below in Hikaru's quarters in DYRL, is that the same VF-X-4 only in different color? Quote

Admittedly, Hikaru was also oftentimes rather annoying too, so maybe they really deserved each other. Now I am wishing the original Macross TV series and DYRL movies focused on Max and Miria as the main characters instead. *sigh* Max..... *drool* Quote

Spiff Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I noticed a glut of v2 VE's popped up on ebay. Then I noticed these VE-1 preorders coming up on ebay last week. It just figures. I recently last couple of months have bought the Yammie v2 VE and VT. Now Arcadia comes out with premium finish for about what I spent...…. F U Arcadia! What is your trade in policy? Quote
Spiff Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I am going to wait for the Bandai DX VE and VT valks. Quote

I preordered one but I'm disappointed about the PF version. No other Arcadia Valkyries I own are PF and if I had know that one day Arcadia will release a PF only toy I would have ordered the other Arcadia Valkyries as the PF variants.

Sandman Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 They should’ve released the ostrich first. The VT already got re-released once by Yamato and it didn’t have the shoulder problem. The ostrich was only released once and many of them had the shoulder issues. Quote

I'm pretty sure they're having a blast doing it so why not do it to myself directly, right? Can't beat 'em, let's join 'em. Quote
Lolicon Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 Been fortunate to avoid mark ups on almost all the prior PF versions and glad the VE-1 is a general release, so no mark up on that. Hoping all future reissues PF versions are standard release too. I'm also guessing that the VT-1 will be the next reissue. I'd sell off my Yamato if not for my love of the tinted canopies. Quote
