Old Man Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Nice pickup spanner! I remember they were a pain to track down, even 4 years ago, but I just had to have M&M in the V2 sculpt. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Thanks guys! Im so excited that i finaly got them! Just cant wait to get them and put them on display! Its felt like there has been a hole in my collection thats finally been filled! and I'll have a VT-1 again which will be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The VT-1 is the only Valk from Yamato (aside from weathered editions) that I'm missing. Just never picked it up when it was released. Grrrrrr..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calubin_175 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Ordered Alto's Armor Renewal for 27k + 5%, At least it is still lower than the auction price of 35k ish + domestic shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 sweet pickups, spanner! what, no nsfw pics of m&M yet? hehehe hehe! not yet but soon! Nice pickup spanner! I remember they were a pain to track down, even 4 years ago, but I just had to have M&M in the V2 sculpt. Enjoy yes they have been a right prick to track down! I had seen them available a few times on the Japan Auction sites but they were always asking frightening money for them! Like I said they weren't cheap by any stretch of the imagination but still not too bad either! Heck its only money and it always comes round again and im more than happy with the money I spent! Nice one, Spanner! Those are pretty great purchases! Very hard to find indeed and a fine addition to any collection! Reeeeaaalllyyy looking forward to getting them! Estimated delivery is about two weeks away though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caslon Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Hey guys! I made some BIG purchases over the weekend! Finally found another VT-1 to replace the one I so stupidly let go previously.. AND I also managed to score both Max & Milia's VF-1J!!! These two have got to be the holy grail of Valkyrie and I physically cannot describe the emotions that are running through me right now as I have been on the hunt for both Max & Milia for a considerable amount of time now.. Hopefully I will see them all in a couple of weeks which im sure will be a long and painful wait! Yes they were by no means cheap but on the other hand I think I got them at a fairly reasonable price considering how rare they are and what the price they demand! All brand new items too! Can't wait! So this pretty much completes my VF-1 collection apart from a few weathering editions which I probably won't bother with.. I know there is a possibility that Arcadia may (or then again may not) re-issue them but at this stage its still a complete unknown and I think I would prefer to have a set of Yamato originals.. Regardless im still very content with my purchases! TOY-RBT-0865_01.jpg TOY-RBT-0866_01.jpg TOY-RBT-0740_04.jpg I need only M&M set and Zentradi uniform before complete my entire VF-1 toy line!

ChaoticYeti Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I am curious, are these new purchases? Or...have you just been opening your MISBMISB collection? I tease. Great haul. Frontier valks are a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only one VF-1 on display at the moment, and I'd like a few more, but a VF-1A and a VF-1J GBP are higher priority than the VF-1J M&M. I don't have a VF-22, and I do love the M7 valks.

I saw one on the japan auctions for something like 110,000yen.. just wee bit overpriced! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calubin_175 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Managed to snag a VF-25F Alto Renewal unopened for 13k yen from Mandarake. I was surprised that it fit into a <2kg small packet as I thought their stores don't have long short boxes, maybe it is on a store to store basis. This is way below the current market price of 16k in Yahoo Auction. So I got Alto VF-25F + Armor Renewal for 40k in total before shipping, not too bad for today's prices.

chyll2 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 it is just like you've hidden some money and found out years later that you did it (though honestly, the chance of it happening to valkyrie I purchased will never happen) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dapro Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 David has so many unopened valks. He is like a store inventory! I noticed there is difference between the older v2 DYRL Roy and the 30th ani. one. The older one has rainbow canopy\ flip preview box\ 2 tabs on each side on the box vs. 30th ani. has clear canopy\ no flip preview on box \ one tab on each side\ newer crotch like 1\48, and optional parts. The 30th has better QC (no shoulder crack), but I digging the rainbow canopy. So I am displaying the older roy and 30th goes back into the box as MIB.

Gakken85 Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah the rainbow is underrated. Most I have seen are unpeeled. My Roy combo set has a rainbow and I like it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
