Old Man

Hello folks,

It’s been a spell since I’ve been on here with hobbies coming in and out a favor, but time has come for me to start to thin the herd. Up for grabs are some NIB Yamato 1/48s in the non-standard colors, with boxes in good to excellent condition. Posted prices are in USD and before shipping. Please PM me with offers and we can go from there. I will provide pictures to interested parties upon request.

VF-1A Low Visibility (Ver. 1) - $400

VF-1A Low Visibility (Ver. 2) + Armor - $350

VF-1J w/ Super & Strike Parts Stealth - $350

Thanks for looking!

Another flawless transaction with a stand-up MW member. Palantirion was prompt with the payment and excellent in communicating. I would not hesitate a second to do business with him again.

SOLD!

Yes it is. PM coming your way.

Bump!

Price drop! 

Still accepting offers...

Yes, barurutor is correct. It's the brown 1J.

Any takers?

Up for grabs is a NMIB Yamato 1/60 V2 VF-1J Mass Production Type or "cannon fodder". I bought this off Y! Japan last year, and while it's a beautiful example, it's one of three in my collection, and I've got a baby boy on the way.

I assume it was removed from the box by its previous owner, as it's missing the factory protective tape over the front landing gear doors (although it still has the tape over the navigation lights on the wingtips). It was only removed from the box by myself for an initial inspection, then placed back in the box and bubble-wrapped for safe keeping. It has a tiny paint ding on the left leg nacelle. The mirrored canopy tint also suffers from the all too common cracking, but no peeling, and although it's very faint, if you look hard enough, it's there.

Given the slight imperfections of this piece I think SOLD + shipping is a fair price. I'm on the "Straight Shooters" list. PayPal only, and buyer assumes fees if any. Please PM me with your offer. I will send pics upon request, but please, serious buyers only.

picking up another roy, i only have box shots as you know i love boxes and posting the whole group so far:

Better get some cellophane on those bad boys

Where's a good place to pick up some cellophane? Amazon?

Hey David, how many valk boxes do you think can be stacked before bowing ensues?

I have some of my doubles bubbled wrapped and stacked, but now I'm worried about the bowing.

I think this anniversary valk will be my desk/mess around valk that I keep around to transform and fiddle with often.

I was thinking the same thing  

1 at HLJ and 2 at AmiAmi. I'm a happy camper

Hmm I would have wanted Hayate and Mirage's VF-1EXs before this.

I would have to agree...but I'll still bite

What a beauty! Looks like it would coming right out of the Yamato factory.

I wish I had the skills and cajones to paint mine up.

Weak!!!

I might have to pass on the Premium Finish Version after all

I still have to paint the T-Rex soldier!!! The second Regult is going to be TV ver too.

Started cleaning John Moscato's amazing 1/32 Legioss and this one is going to take me an eternity to finish

I have a few T-Rex soldiers myself, and the only one that's painted yet is the one that I bought that way

It would be great to see a buildup of your second Regult. Your first one turned out spectacularly.

This is more appropriate in the 'Wanted' section, but check your PM.

Cavaliers yes, I have two, but they have no rainbow canopy  The VF-1S low viz has tinted canopy too. The VT-1 and VE-1 I have are the first releases not the 30th anniversary like the VF-1D so they also sport ranbow canopy like all my other DYRL? valks. My TV CF has also tinted canopy. The only Yamato VF-1 valks I have with clear canopies are the 3 DYRL? Cannon Fodders and the Cavaliers.

Had to let the AB and VF-X pass since during that time I bought a new house. I'm still kicking myself for not buying those two.

Well, at least you still have the HDP Regult, and a T-REX Zentradi Soldier to boot. I love seeing any and all photos you have of them!

I recall you mentioning you had a second Regult. Any plans for a DYRL? version?

All my TV valks have rainbow canopy so this Kakizaki is a welcomed addition!!!

Yes sir

No Cavaliers, Angel Birds, or VF-X for you, Ignacio?
