My favorite Destroid has always been the Tomahawk. It looks so fierce, bristling with guns, cannons and missiles. I'll probably get a couple of those when they come out.

Whew. Gonna be an expensive few months, then. Two Cannon Fodders, TV Hikaru VF-1J, Max and Millia. My poor wallet. Thank God there are no Masterpiece Transformers on my list for the time being.

Just paid AmiAmi for my two Cannon Fodder Valks. When is the TV Hikaru, again? I forgot.

Need VF-1J Cannon Fodder too. It's too bad we can't just buy the VF-1J head separately.

I'm thinking maybe packs might be too much to hope for, but if they do it I'm all over it.

As others have said, I'm in this mainly for the enemy mecha and destroids. I guess 1/100 was the only feasible scale? 1/60 would've been really nice, but probably prohibitively large.. and expensive. Bandai has given us a way to have a complete collection of Macross characters and mecha. It took forever, but it looks like it's finally happening. Hoping we get some S.H. Figuarts Zentran and Meltran to go along with their mecha. That'd be nice. Breetai, Exedore, Bodolza, Millia and Kamjin. Buncha Zentran/Meltran grunts. Yes, please.

Did I miss the preorder for the Hikaru TV VF-1J?

Wow. I don't remember that at all. What episode was that?

Stragglers? I dunno if that's the term I'd use. More like, "people who have better things to do than sit at the computer and wait for preorders to open for a toy." I wish we didn't have to go through this crap just to get the stuff we enjoy. It's kind of a bummer to be honest.

I wonder how many units just sold across all those outlets in just ten minutes? Damn.

Got one at AmiAmi before the preorders closed. Wow, that was quick. Not even five minutes. Quick, everyone get it at HLJ before they're closed too. It's still up.

Tomahawk, please!

I snagged one at HLJ. Didn't wanna risk not getting one.

Damn it, I forgot about the holiday on Monday. AmiAmi just shipped mine, too. Ah, well. It'll be here soon anyways. Just glad it's on the way. Bring on the Destroids! TV Max VF-1A! TV Focker and Hikaru Valks! Max and Millia VF-1Js! Queadluun Rau power armor! Doooo eeeet!!!

Hey Gundam@EFSF, Do you think that the Glaug's arms really need those stands for support? Does it feel like they're gonna start sagging over time? So far, they look alright in your pic.

Seriously. They're gonna be awesome.

42 here, and I'm all in with HMR. I look forward to finally having all of the important characters and mecha from SDF Macross. Hopefully a VF-2SS at some point, too. I loved Yamato/Arcadia, but I can't afford them anymore and I'm done waiting for them to slow-drip us the characters and mecha that we want. I wish them the best and am grateful that they came onto the scene.

Wow. N-Y just marked up their VF-1S Focker Strike Valks to $209. Sheesh.

I doubt they'd give us a pack of figures. They want us to spend more money, not less. Individual releases will probably remain the order of the day. But if they did decide to offer a four-pack of Destroids at a significant savings, I'd buy it.

I'm too broke to really army build, but I'd be happy with a squad of two Brownies led by one Brown VF-1J.

I finally got around to opening up my Hi-Metal R Focker VF-1S, transformed it a few times.. .. and I have to say I'm super impressed with it. This little guy is rock-solid. Nothing loose or floppy, everything pegs in securely. The fit and finish is impeccable for a toy of this scale and it stands up to handling much better than I'd expected. It's sturdy despite being so small; I don't feel like anything's going to suddenly break in my hands. Great sculpt, detailing and paint on top of it all. I'm definitely on board for the future of this line. Thank you, Bandai.

Couldn't resist. Ordered two CF VF-1A's at AmiAmi. Any chance we'll get some CF VF-1J's? What do you guys think? I'd buy one.

Seems kinda weird to me to make a main character like Roy an exclusive item. People need him for their collections and he's not widely available? Just strange. Carry on.

My Focker VF-1S is on its way from Nippon-Yasan. For my part, I've never had any issues with them. Got Masterpiece Bumblebee from them, as well as a Renewal VF-25S Ozma for a reasonable price when everyone else was charging sky-high prices. This is my third order with N-Y. Hopefully my dealings with N-Y will continue to go smoothly. So what's next on the Hi-Metal R list? I'd like a VF-1D or Max and Millia. Or a Tomahawk.
