ahiachris Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 There aren't a lot of new stuff at the event this year. Glad that my buyer was able to grab all the items that I am interested in. They are all in 1/72. VF-11MAXL, YF-19 weapon set and Update sets for the WAVE destroids. Reaaly need to squeeze out time to build kits.

Valkyrie Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I really wanted the MAXL, but I couldn't bring myself to spend Y23,000 on it... I waited and hoped he would drop the price, but he never did. I ended up walking away with: Sheryl's Shuttle Argenics (the ship from Macross M3) SDF-2 Megaroad (the design from Perfect Memory, not Flashback 2012) VF-1X++ Double Plus conversion kit Arcadia 1/60 VF-1 stand And a few other non-Macross kits I didn't get everything I wanted, but it was still a great show!

Valkyrie Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Oh, fine... It's actually kinda funny, but I didn't notice until last night that it was the TV design! I barely looked at the parts before I got it home, and just assumed that it was the Flashback design. They didn't have a display model of it, and I got the only one that was on their table. I'm guessing that it was left over stock from another event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
505thAirborne Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Very cool kit. You don't see that SDF-2 everyday aside from the books, thank you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsain Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Very cool. Any idea what (if any) scale it is ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neptunesurvey Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Very cool. Any idea what (if any) scale it is ? I would like to know as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 All of the guy's kits seem to be non-scale. But the kit measures about 7 1/8" long, which would put it at about 1/9000, based on the length spec in the design sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommar Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Oh, fine... It's actually kinda funny, but I didn't notice until last night that it was the TV design!

sbantonelli Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Does anyone know if there's a way procure the destroid detail kits without going to the show or waiting for them appear on Yahoo Japan?

Grayson72 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Does anyone know if there's a way procure the destroid detail kits without going to the show or waiting for them appear on Yahoo Japan? I'm wondering the same thing, upgrade sets shouldn't be a Wonderfest only thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahiachris Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 I believe it will not be possible to procure the upgrade kits unless the manufacturer apply for the license directly from the license holder. For the wonderfest event, it was hosted by Kaiyodo. Kaiyodo will be the one responsible to apply license for the people that joined the event. The license will be limited only for that day.

cool8or Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 MAXL is in 1/100, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I think that one is 1/72. The experten transforming one is the one that's 1/100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahiachris Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Yes, Exo is right. The one I have is 1/72. Link to photos taken by Gerwalk_w picture.

cool8or Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Daaamn!! In that case... I need one!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Thanks for the pics! I do kinda regret passing it up... But at the same time, I'd expect cleaner casts from a $230 kit. Though they're certainly not terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahiachris Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Indeed it is not as detailed when compared to other brands as Reckless Studio. But i won't complain when they are the only source available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kicker773 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I have that SDF2...was looking for a reference picture. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetarB Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I love and hate these Wonderfest threads! On one hand it's great to see what's new - but on the other I grind my teeth at the models I'll never be able to get... Anyway, that MAXL VF-11 looks great. Kind of what I expected Bandai to do all those years ago, instead we got those tiny 1:144 scale kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
