  1. ..don't forget the Alaska base VF-1A and the Max and Millia wedding ceremonial guard VF-1D!!! yep......plenty more "unseen" VF-1 fighter squadrons from SDFM are shown in the VF-1 Master File book....they did the "cavaliers"...may as well release the rest!
  2. So now that Yamato has finally made many a dream come true with the release (well by end of year) of the VF-4......what's next? I'm thinking that Yamato's release of the almost $400 VF-4 means anythng goes.....so with that said.....I think we will see the rest of the Sound Force.....Varuta valks.....Vf-5000 and VA-3C from Macross Dynamite 7.....the remaining Macross TV VF-1's.....and to further milk the VF-1mold....Macross the First VF-1's!!! I am hoping that the big announcement at the end of year or early next year will be for the SDF-1 TV version........perhaps the next web-exclusive?
  3. And NY isn't serving as a "proxy"?....Since this valk is "only available as an online exclusive directly from the Yamato Webshop".......a proxy is the only way to go if you are outside of Japan........
  4. Sure....but I am glad there are nuts out there doing it because I can't!!!.......with that said....please hurry on the 2 parts everyone will surely go nuts over!...
  5. Same here...I know I am guaranteed the one I bought on early bird.....I can wait and see what becomes available once it is actually released..... If the VF-X and Angelbird are any indication.......I doubt a mass release will be any different......but sure would be nice
  6. That was a magazine exclusive....and yes, they ended up everywhere.......which is odd why Yamato has taken the steps of "early bird" offerings and now this open pre-ordering...all while not taking one dime up front....I would think they would want to avoid the same over-production issues of those two valks ........unless, of course, they get to sell the excess valks for the same price they would any normal release...or they know they are not producing that many?
  7. OK, so if no payment is being requested up front.......and the window for "pre-ordering" closes for everyone on October 15th.....Yamato is really going to produce these with no "cash in hand"? .....just hope they don't have a production number in mind and end up not being able to fulfill orders...in other words, limiting sales to any one individual which at this point seems several from NY..... ........I do hope other venues for getting this valk start popping up.......
  8. So no payment is being requested right now by Yamato?
  9. maybe HLJ was able to carry exclusives before because Yamato guesstimated on demand.....and apparently overestimated on several of those items...like the VF-X and Angelbird.........Isn't this the first time Yamato is producing a limited/exclusive item based on an initial "early bird" count of ultimate sales/production quantity?.......
  10. I think I know what your gf bought you.....if so they are not original....but still unless you were buying them yourself...I would just be grateful that my gf was thoughtful enough to get me something I liked....If she is not a fan I would not expect her to know the difference.....bringing it up will just make her feel bad which is the complete opposite of what her goal was for you when she searched for and bought you something from "macross"......been there.....just take the cd's and enjoy....they sound the same as the originals....
  11. I put in my early bird pre-order for one as that is all I wanted, however, I assume others may have placed orders for more.....seems a separate "early bird" email will be sent on the 20th.... Please let us know if Yamato is able to fulfill your multiple orders or if you were limited to 1 or 2, as that will give everyone a good indication as to whether or not the webshops will be able to make these available for sale..... I did not see anything on the latest VF-4 email update regarding limiting order quantities, but their general policy does seem to imply that "limited" items are subject to order limits.... Hoping everyone that wants one...gets one!
  12. I thought early bird fans would get first dibs today......maybe later today? Still early in the AM on the 17th in Japan....
  13. Unlike other VF's, I have never seen anyone post their dislike of the original VF-1 design........the above pics explain why.... VF-1 Rules!
  14. maybe with the VF-17S selling at clearance prices now....need to make you believe the VF-17D and 19F are selling out and you won't be able to get one later at markdown!!!
  15. LOL.....the delay was to affix the sticker that ultimately was really not supposed to have been affixed...
  16. So if you pre-pre-ordered your vf-4 you can place your "discounted" order on the 17th once you receive an email notice? Open orders for everyone on the 20th???
  17. Would like a another one...but holding out for 50% from HLJ by xmas.....
  18. Can you provide more details on the content of " the official exhibit book"? Thanks! Would like to purchase this book....
  19. As far as I knew there was 8 volumes of the Arii/Imai Macross "Magazine for Anime and Hobby Fan" booklets.......Volume 8 is probably the hardest to find...... This booklet is not numbered, however, it is also an Arii/Imai booklet....it seems to be announcing the arrival of the SDFM TV show (most likely shameless promotion to drum up interest for their upcoming kits! ).... I had never run into this one before so I assume most have ended up in many a Japanese landfill..... I'll call it "Magazine for Anime and Hobby Fans" Volume Zero! Same size as the other ARII/IMAI booklets.....
  20. Macross Children's hardcover book Volume 3.......
