At my local region. I'm trying to work up ways for these to be out via Shapeways or something. Shipping from where I'm at over there is too much.

Fair enough. I had to ask though. Your solution is great!!

Looks like Shapeways is dead.  Maybe Etsy or sell the STL on Cults3D?

I think so as well. Couldn't even find my old stash there.

What's the general consensus on which is better?  Renewal or Revival?  I have renewals of the VF-25S and 25F.  I have the fast pack sets for them too.  Wasn't sure if it was worth buying the new 25F set with everything included unless it was made better.  

I still like my renewals, solid toys and fun to transform. I hesitated between a revival vf-25g and a renewal and ended up getting a second hand renewal one. Fits better with my other renewals. The revivals is a great opportunity to buy one retail and starts a collection.

My advice is to go with the revivals. That paint is new and could survive more time.

I finally bought the VF-25F Revival version from Amazon after seeing it on sale for a pretty good discount. The package I got today was sealed by tape but when I opened it, the Valkyrie itself looked used with some scuff marks and stains from where the armor pieces would go.  I could already feel the dread that I received a Renewal version that someone returned to scam Amazon. Sure enough, I inspected the back of its hips and there was only one screw. I'm expecting a replacement tomorrow but I wonder if it's even worth trying to get a replacement or if Amazon's entire remaining stock are all Renewals that were returned.
