Please, it is Bandai, owner of the Chogokin line, Masters of Metal. The lack of metal in Macross Frontier valkyries was pretty disappointing, now these Hi-Metal figures are something more Bandais style.
As a fan of Soul of Chogoking, Im pretty glad with this new idea, but too bad about the scale.
By the way, when I see statements like "superior quality valkyries in plastic", I cant avoid to think in crack shoulders and other issues of Yamato because of his light plastic, but of course metal has problems too, fans are never happy!
