I count all of that mold as 1. Would you believe my poor lil 1/72 YF-19 is still in the case. My first valk I bought from overseas off the internet. Was the coolest thing ever at the time. And I wish this thing would quit auto changing valk to talk.

eehhh I guess so.....

You know what screw the VF-1's. I want my Ver.2 YF-19. In the manner that bandai makes the 25's. The cartoony look is all good for mac 7 and I love my Mac 7 valks but they need to make it look like a bad ass real life fighter in the ver 2.

Edit: Im sick of only being happy looking at my 19 from the top only.

I have no prob with "BANDAI'S" pricing at all. The valks look great.

Would you believe I paid $220 for a VF-25G tornado then when it fell off the dresser and broke I bought the first one I could find @ $260. man.... Well at least it does look good in fighter.

I took the YF-29 preorder that nobody was jumping on at anime export because it was 20-30 bucks more at the time? I hesitated but then just said screw it. I ordered and received the super parts for it so I better get it.

And for the 171 I just went with dendenhobby on ebay. I believe I went with him once before with no issues but he is a little more expensive.

Not the knockoff please. With or without box ok as long as toy is in good shape.

Thanks,

Erik

Ive ignored this thread with the 171 panic.....haha. that anymoon guide does help. Even though parts are being made I really don't feel lIke swapping parts out. Just pull it out set it to the mode I like and let her be. Im thinking a Kakakazi or however you spell his name to splash a little different color in the case.

F it. Just ebay preordered as well. Its literally 3 days of wawa extra for me.

If your patient for most valks you can find deals. Although with these ver 2 25's I think the somewhat inflated prices are ok. Don't want to say that too loud. I mean they look great. Very modern. I find it hard to believe I paid $300 for the vf-17. Its not anything to do with how its made but the 7's designs are kinda blandy/cartoony if that makes sense while these 25's look top notch modern. Not downing Yamato at all they just made what the anime showed. I still love my 17. I just paid $270 for an Alto and am quite ok for that. I was lucky enough to get a preorder in on the Ozma.

I was out of the game for a while. Came back in. Have been afraid of shoulder problems and never really looked into the v2 1/60's. Trying to decide how to remedy this. Suggestions with pics would help. I honestly don't know which ones have exploda shoulders or not. I need at least one in the case.

I really need to raise the money and get this! I was a little burned by my 1st version dx VF-25F. With the wing root laser things cracking and whatnot, but seeing this just gets me excited! MaybeI can convince my wife that this is a congratulations present for me for starting RN classes!

DONT DO IT! Nursings horrible. Good JOB but the work sucks. just keep going to school and become a PA or NP. Choose where you work wisely.

if anyone is still looking for a VF25 v2 i stumbled on this.

Damn just paid 270 or 275 for mine....

Just opened Alto last night. He's overall much tighter than my Ozma. Looks great. Can't wait for the armor/super packs but I don't know if i want to cover this Beaut up with all that mess!

Im glad its happening but not so enthused about the colors. I don't know much about the 171's but I dug the dark/greenish ones from frontier

Well Im glad I did pop for the armor parts. Looks great. I originally passed as I ddidnt think they looked that good.

Do you have data to back up this claim? I am inclined to believe that in the grand scheme of things the demand is rather negligible -- or else why would Yamato go the exclusive route?

Looking at Bandai and bending the strategy.

Holy christ it was up for 10 mins and sold out!!!!??? WTF!!!

OH HELL ITS BACK UP AGAIN!!!!

GONE ALREADY!

Ill eat human flesh and send them the video to get my order placed. Hopefully that impresses them.

Sold out everywhere.......

Ebay rapeage.....

Oh re release here we come.

Process starts over again

Holy hell didn't realize I already ordered! Cool!

IM gonna be a sucker and Im sure pay $300 plus for this valk. I see sell outs quick and eventually re-releases at lower prices. but oh well have to have it, I think this is going to be a sleeper hit. And not because its not a great design but as many know the screen time isn't there and yamato is prob afraid of shelf warming the poor thing.

The heads imd a blah for me. I was so/so on the S head until I got it and love it. Fits the battroid perfectly.

Yeah aren't these topics supposed to be about the thread headline. It seems every time I post something off in a forum someone jumps in later and says keep it on track.

Anyway Im happy with my 27 so far. The 171 would be a definite no doubt buy for me if they threw in the knowhow they used in the V2 25. I think they are awesome. Gonne be a busy year. I still need to pick up an V2 Alto. VF-4's a must, and prob throw in the 17D even though Im not a huge fan of the head. At least the 29 is paid for with fast packs on the way....

Im not to sure Im liking the contrast of the fast packs. Makes it look like an unfinished model.

Yeah I read somewhere that it used 60% of the VF-1's parts or whatever. Dont quote me on the percentage. But would make sense to use the front end of the VF-1. But I don't really care if thats what it was suppose to be. I want the bent nose.

Still Lookin!

Hell Ill put in for a set even though I prefer Ozma with the super parts.......
