  1. Its mainly because Some people dislike the gerwalk and battroid modes of the VF-4. IF it was going to be expensive regardless, then i'd prefer it be perfect trans, since atleast i'd know i would feel better overall for paying that much. I think fighter and gerwalk are pretty sexy on the VF-4 anyway.
  2. Bandai is making small quantities of shipments for stores to sell so they can create a demand on them. Since so many people want them, they can inflate the prices and people will pay it since it is the only VF-25 toy on the market at the moment.
  3. To be honest, i'm more or less glad they even decided to include a minmei figure since the obviously didn't need to, since hikaru did fly around a bit on his own, but its a nice touch. Not the best looking figure in the world but honestly its good enough.
  4. Any person that is willing to do such amazing research for any person is usually awesome. Its cool that your wife appreciates you and went out of her way to find out about the macross and buy it just for you.
  5. I absolutely love the VF-1D, and if i'm getting any VF-1 next its definitely this one, but you can tell from the pictures how little the tampo printed details its gonna have. Makes it seem slightly plain but thats what decals are for.
  6. Got my hikaru VF-1A today and I haven't transformed it yet but I took a look at the hinges and no breakage out of the box.
  7. At the beginning of DYRL the entire skull squad is using fastpacks, including kakizaki.
  8. I'd probably keep it since you'll always have a unique max VF-1A as apposed to shelling out for another. The only thing i noticed is that the painting on the leg portion is a bit sloppy where it kinda just looks uneven.
  9. Well so far the shipping has been over 2 weeks and as you can see i live as far south east as you can in the United States. I'm hoping I get my orders tomorrow but i'm not holding my breath. Either way i guess different strokes for different folks.
  10. I really doubt customs hold your package so that it takes longer than 2 1/2 weeks to 3 or more. Sal is more of a "close your eyes" and hope you get it kinda deal.
  11. Honestly try to avoid Sal shipping as much as possible, as I know all too well that it takes far too long to receive your beautiful gift from yamato.
  12. Hlj will only ship out your order through ems if it exceeds 15,000 yen or if somehow your order is to big to fit the size limit of sal.
  13. Kinda tight on money and i don't need more than 1 of each, so 4 is just about right.
  14. I've only got a VF-1A so far in the 1/60 so i'd much rather get a tv version roy with all the bells and whistles like tv fast packs and stuff.
  15. Its probably easier to use a wash method rather than go in with a pen, but requires a bit more work.
  16. I think the only problem with the video was that it had a bit too much panning with music. Your other videos were a bit balanced with talking and displaying.

    Does the max version come with the figure? I know the Millia one doesn't.

    i bet if you play with the mecha you get her she bothers you about it.
  19. I know the feeling. My package is still in japan.
  20. In the vein of Isamu, you don't know whether its bad or good until you try it for yourself.
  21. As far as I can tell, filing down the pin solves the problem of broken hinges. If you're that worried then just buy some lubricant and fix the pin when you receive your vf-1.
  22. I haven't gotten my VF-1A just yet, but i did happen to find some Wahl hair clipper oil. I might use that to remove the pin if it turns out to be a problem.
  23. Honestly I'd rather get a variant that hasn't been used as apposed to a very minor re release.
  24. Its pretty lame waiting for your VF-1 and when you finally recieve it its in pieces. Nothing so expensive should have that problem.

    yamato's next move

    I actually wouldn't mind if they package cheap rubbery figures with different repaints for a few bucks.
