  1. If it's a Jumbo Machinder-sized chunky-style 3P release....I'd get every single variant produced.... I recall there were a couple MW members working on upscaled chunky VF-1s....one made of wood and one out of metal....wonder if they ever completed them? I am surprised no 3P has released such a beast.
  2. VF-1J with the grey visor and GBP combo pack may force many to get another VF-1J.

    I purchased one. But it could very well be my last. I hope they respond to my inquiry regarding Standard Zentran Soldiers. That is what I really want. I really am not impressed by anything else they have teased and I honestly am just buying the Britai because of the lack of an SHF...and the potential demise of the KC 6" line, which I personally think would produce a better Britai and/or Standard Zentradi Soldier. Something is better than nothing in this case....at least it looks better than the old Matchbox Britai!
  4. https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/closedsearch/closedsearch?auccat=&tab_ex=commerce&ei=utf-8&aq=-1&oq=&sc_i=&exflg=&p=HI-METAL+R+VF-1A+バルキリー+標準量産機+マクロス&x=36&y=25 As sold on YJA as of this year (last three months or so)....7410 JPY is the going average (I removed the two highest winning bids...13,500 and 20,000). To the average price add around 10% for proxy fees and around another $20-30 for domestic and international shipping to your door, which is what anyone buying directly from YJA would have to pay. As always, the actual pricing or "worth" of anything will vary....factors such as condition and the current demand for an item will always make the value of an item fluctuate (+/-) to some degree from the current average market price.
  5. Only a company like Bandai is going to get a "pass" with the kind of shenanigans Fexthobby was trying to mimic.....they should have made all weapon/armor combos available for each of 2 sets...a white armor and a grey armor...as a result I passed on all of it...sounds like a lot of other potential customers may have felt the same way...
  6. Always enjoy the pics on the VFMF book series....I'm sure this one will not let down either
  7. So what's worse?.... A Chinese Google translation or a Japanese one?
  8. On the perpetual to-do list...
  9. Yep....so crank out those translations so it can be more than just about the pics for the rest of us...
  10. LOL...."Padding" is the VF Master Files spe-ci-a-li-ty! And to be honest, without the "padding" they wouldn't be as interesting!
  11. Yeah...that was a good idea...unfortunately, there are more members with cool Macross toys to pose....than members with the photoshop skills and time to put them into cool backgrounds! There was some really nice stuff was put together though....
  12. I think of any possible collaborations....one between Hasegawa and Arcadia would be epic. Sadly that bridge will probably never materialize. Incidentally, the Masterfiles books seem to be a fertile ground for the "borrowing" of design ideas...
  13. Not sure....my order still shows 3/9 release date.....that was announced back around February 5th....and I posted that here: Unless some are getting alerts that it will not show up until sometime in April? Wouldn't surprise me. This is what Amazon.jp says: Product details 単行本: 128 pages Publisher: SBクリエイティブ (March 9, 2019) Language: 日本語 ISBN-10: 4815600309 ISBN-13: 978-4815600303 Release Date: March 9, 2019
  14. Basically, they are nickel and diming us for all the add-ons, nothing new I suppose from Bandai DX stuff.... The missile set was the first one released.....no idea what is next, but I would think it would be either the SP or SSP.....hard to tell from Bandai since they always seem to get the missile tips wrong, but since they are releasing them "yellow-tipped" perhaps we get the SSP first and the SP later....maybe in a combo set for Max and Millia -1J's....and then forcing the "standard" SP as websclusives... https://hobby.dengeki.com/event/652754/
  15. I hope so too...let Hikaru take a break on the next sortie! With that said, if it is Roy.....it may become the mother of all PO madness!

    Hi-Metal R

    Any Macross HMR release is a welcomed HMR release!
  17. Since they have already shown us the SSP for this 1/48 DX VF-1....most likely yes. We just do not know which one at the moment....Roy or Hikaru?
  18. Two scenes from the best SDFM episode ever!

    Hi-Metal R

    Hi-Metal R

    One less to worry about being released....what will be next?
  21. Not a fan but ran into this seller.....has several at 20 bucks each.....can't vouch for authenticity though....buy at your own risk https://buyee.jp/item/search/seller/the_tekkoki
