My favorite mobile suit of all time! Definitely a dream come true! Found this image on Facebook.

The Washington State Toy Show will be happening this year on November 5th and 6th (2022) at the Washington State Fair grounds. Official site: https://www.watoyshow.com/ Anybody planning to go? I will have a booth on Sunday with Macross items (Bandai DX Chogokin), Transformers, and other Japanese figures/mecha.

Edit: Sold Out completely now. Re-stock on Hi-Nu MB pre-order on Ami Ami: https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?scode=FIGURE-136396 If it says sold out, go to the "more buying options" under the Pre-orders Closed button.

What other proxy do you use?

At least you got it in, but now you know you're at the end of the line.

Anime Export sold out now.

If anyone is trying at AmiAmi and thinks they have no chance of getting it, I'd be willing to try and help since I'm sitting this one out. I've been able to get several valks on Pre-order from them so I might be able to give a decent chance (obviously not guaranteed). If you're interested, just PM me. Would need an account (you can make a new one if you prefer) that I can log into and place the order so that you can take care of the rest if its successful. Only one person, first one to PM will be the one I'll try for.

Since the Yen got weaker, that's a decent price compared to what a Valk + Super parts would cost on pre-order a year or two ago.

Been wanting a V2 VF-1J Hikaru for awhile. Not sure what I'll do with the armor parts, but maybe put them on once in awhile. Hope the yen stays weak until it comes out.

I would agree overall. The proportions are good and there's not much kibble hanging off anywhere. I think the only weak point is the headsculpt, but honestly, I like the white stripes on the head. From far away, they look like "Venom" eyes (from spider man) and it looks very imposing. Wish the color was a bit shinier and blue like in the promo pics, but it's still good.

The first YF-30 hasn't been released, but I would buy that color!!! Need more red Valks.
-
That's a good point. There's no way they wouldn't do a repaint of this. It's a good ploy to limit supply so you create that demand, then you know whatever repaint you make will sell for sure. There will probably be 1-2 repaints since this is a non-show valkyrie and they can go wild with colors. At the least, they'll re-issue it like they did the YF-29's.

You should cancel one. I ordered over the limit on an item before and they threatened to cancel all quantities next time they catch it.
-
Those are misquoted prices. They are missing another 0. You can see the price clearly in the pic of the advertisement.
-
I find that sometimes, if you add and subtract randomly, you'll get a great price. First, try adding all your stuff at once (if there is a lot, sometimes there will be an error, but you can keep going). Then take out one of the biggest items. Then add it back. Then just try adding/subtracting things one by one until you get the best price. This has only worked with at least 5 items for me.

I recently got this figure. This is my first experience with a Renewal-type Macross Frontier Valkyrie. I notice in the box images, the waste piece is very angled. I was wondering if there is supposed to be a big gap between the waist and the underside of the canopy area (like how it's supposed to be when you put it on the stand). It seems a little odd to me that there would be such a gap. Is there anyway to angle the waist without having this huge gap?

Otacute has them on backorder now for $182. Worth a shot!
