I still have my Jetfire x2. I only keep them because it was my first "macross" toys. I had most all the other 1/55's but have parted with them all now and don't miss them. They were cool for the time but then Yamato came along and ruined that.

Verified, HLJ has put out a stop order on the VF-4G. Nippon Yasan still has them available. Sucks cause I finally decided to pre order one and I would have preferred to use HLJ, I will be trying NY. Hoping for no shipping issues.

I am not a chunky monkey expert but heres what I think I know. No they are not the same. Biggest difference is the Origin release does not have fast packs. The origin of Valkyrie are the latest release of the 1/55 from Bandai. Unless you are really nostalgic for the 1/55 I would suggest picking up a Yamato 1/48 VF-1S or a Yamato version 2 1/60 VF-1S. Way better sculpt.

I am with you, I am digging the design, just not loving the paint schemes.

The price be damned, must have! VF-1J is my all time fav valk. Just please oh please be perfect transformation, super detailed, loaded with gimmicks!

I don't have any of the Yamato 1/60 V2, so I can only recommend the Yamato 1/48 VF-1S. Don't waste your money on a Yamato V1 VF-1S, the head sculpt is awful.

I am inherently lazy, that's why I sealed my Detolf cases to keep dust out. Before that I mainly used a soft bristle vacuum attachment. You know the brush that you put on the vacuum. I did learn the hard way that taking a piece of screen door material and placing it over the hose before putting on the brush attachment was a literal parts saver.. Things invariably can get sucked off the toy. For light cleaning I always use a paint brush.

Got sick of having to dust my toys too, came up with this idea on my own. Been sealed with the foam tape for over a year now in Arizona (dust capitol of the world). No more dusting for me... I just applied it to the inside all around where the doors sits when closed. It works.

This is funny, I was just starting to think, I want one of the Yamato VF-4. Being that it was rare and somewhat hard to obtain. But now that its going to be produced again and no longer rare, and easily attainable. Now I don't want it...

I am currently at over 50. I really don't want to know how much it cost. That's not the point of it for me. I enjoy buying them, displaying them, admiring them. Hi, my name is Spiff. I'm a valkaholic. The insurance and spread sheet are good ideas though.

I have 3 of the Bandai VF-25s and 2 YF-30 Chronos. I would post pictures but I am out of town. I normally don't get multiples, with as many as I have it takes up too much space. I have to really, really like one to get more than one..
