takatoys Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I had the VF-19S in my cart. Even though it was gone on the sale, I still had the chance to pay but I let it go. I am felling guilty of spending too much on the YF -19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool8or Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 As you know, I'm not a toy collector, but it catches my attention the price of the Quarter...it worths the money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullmilitia Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think the quarter fails IMO. It's too loose jointed to even hold the firing pose without aid. Even at 90$ it's just not good enough. Plus it totally feels like a V1 DX toy, not as detailed as it should be. And just a flimsy mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I agree, with how good the toys of the last several years have gotten, the Quarter falls short as a toy. If you have a display set-up the Quarter could help with then great... just don't expect a lot of joy from handling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I missed the Quarter. Bandai will never do a Renewal of that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North of 49 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Managed to get an order in for the VF-19. At least I think so. It's in my order queue, so I am hopeful that I got one. Also saw that the 30th Ann. VF-1J is still there and seems to get no love. I still haven't warmed up to it yet. It's too bad about the Macross Quarter too as it's not that bad. I picked one up the last time it was 50% off at HLJ and I really like it. It is far from perfect, but it is still nice enough to display with the rest of my Macross Frontier stuff.

VF-19 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Nabbed the VF-19. Patience really paid off in this instance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommar Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Damn, I wish I had known about the 19S being $109. I would have jumped at that price even though I already have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scyla Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Thanks for the effort but now that it is available I have second thoughts if I really need it and if I can pay for it with all the stuff that comes up (YF-19 *cough*).

anime52k8 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) Bumping because HLJ's current clearance sale is amazing. I haven't found much Macross specifically but there's a ton of really good deals on all kinds of stuff that people on here will probably be interested. http://www.hlj.com/Clearance-Sale-2014 Edited May 27, 2014 by anime52k8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 not much, yet. they're prolly still updating inventory. some stuff still have their regular pricing even tho it's supposed to be on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mog_kupo Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) Well, the VF-1J 30th Anniversary is under 80 USD I know, it's ugly Edited May 27, 2014 by mog_kupo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treatment Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) They're up again. I got my email confirmation. whew! Anyway, the Arcadia 30th VF-1J is still up. For those who want that abomination... The robot spirits Q-Rhea for 704y! Get it! Battleship Yamato is tempting, but it's such a brick to me that I'm passing on it.

anime52k8 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) The site is still down for me but I got my confirmation email. No Macross goodies but I did get 3 $100 anime figures I had wanted for about $30 each and a $25 RD Sazabi. Edited May 27, 2014 by anime52k8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Yup. Down again. Surprisingly, I didn't see any Macross/Frontier figures like some Sheryl or Ranka when it was up. Only the Q-Rhea and the VF-1J. Weird. I can't get myself to tolerate the Arcadia 1J even at the 7900y sale-price, but I think I'll get it only if it goes under 4500y. I only got one figure (1/8 Remon) ordered and was trolling the Senran Kagura Yagyuu to get an actual discounted sale-price instead of the regular pricing. I'm undecided whether to double-dip on the figures I already have, including the Sazabi. Then hlj crashed. Again. HAHAHAHA! Oh, well.

Sandman Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Is there a way to just browse the sale items. I rather not have to go to each category separately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sildani Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 If the 30th VF-1J ever get to $50 or thereabouts, I'll grab one to disassemble and soak in mineral spirits to get rid of the markings. Then I'll stare at the pile of white parts that remain and wonder what the hell to do with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanedas Bike Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Not much good on sale. Oh well. haha I wonder if the 30th will be a hard to find and expensive collectible some day like the vf-x Honestly if the ask is if it's worth investing in one or two to see what their value is down the line then it's a risky proposition. Most other Valks that were first-time shelf warmers had an aesthetic appeal that the average Macross fan could like. The 30th Anniversary VF-1J is, in my opinion, to polarizing a scheme. Highly doubt it . . . agree...again -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gakken85 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 That's how it works. The more people that pass on it, the more rare it becomes and the more value it has a few years down the line. VF-X's were passed over and sold on sale for $60 bucks too haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
