meh..... Yamato 1/60 VF-1S Roy Focker Type with Super and Strike Packs PLUS (w/flashlight) http://page12.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p346325778 Yamato 1/60 VF-4G...and NO SALE!!!!!!!!! http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n126038018

But was it really entirely designed under the Arcadia banner? or one of the last Yamato projects?......I say Macross Plus VF-14 should be the next fully designed PT valk as Arcadia....OK....maybe after the SDF-1 TV!!!

Surprised no one has "shapewayed" a solution.....

The concrete silos between those 2 teams are apparently way too thick......

It would be nice huh?....But, I cannot tell if any of the items are available via a museum webshop....I don't think there is one...otherwise a proxy service may assist you. I believe the special "art cards" can be bought online via the "Animate" online shop using a proxy service....basically you get the special cards with the purchase of advance tickets to the Macross the Museum event: http://www.animate.co.jp/ticket/ticket_20131028macross_m/ I honestly don't care for them.... Mandarake would probably not have these items...unless they announce some companion book for the event....in which case they may eventually have one used....your best bet may need to be YJA.... Good Luck, if you find someone going there that can help you, let me know....so far I'd be interested in the poster.....I'm guessing the new Tenjin "captain portraits" will eventually be available in some upcoming Tenjin art book...or maybe, like I mentioned, a Macross the Museum event companion book......

I believe the benchmark for a "badass" YF-19 has just been set.....Arcadia has plenty of time left.....and I like that a YF-19 is "pre-yellowed"!

Father's Day 2014?

You mean the last 2?Just copy the isbn numbers and search for them on amazon japan or other japanese bookstore that can ship int'l.... They are relatively new, so they should be easy to find.

If you are referring to the VF-17.... I prefer the term "brutish"....

very nice....looking forward to your next VF-1 scheme!

And another one..... Macross: Do You Remember Quotations? (yes....thankfully most have been subbed! )

Another book added to my Macross library.... Shoji Kawamori: The insane ramblings of a visionary (or something like that).....

After 30 years of transforming and putting together Macross toys.......the "skill" is now embedded in my DNA!!!

The "extras" are making me "want" this.....stop posting pics of them! If only I could just score everything but the videos........

indeed it is.......yet I still have another one on "pre-order"....

And if you have kids it is completely accurate!!!!!!!

A "Fully Loaded" (armor, booster, arm cannon, full ordinance) YF-19 will probably push $400 shipped....start skipping lunch guys!

So if this was what Yamato was working on before it collapsed......when will the "first" all-new mold designed under the Arcadia banner be announced? SDF-1 TV please!!!

It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete.....It's not obsolete..... (yes it is....yes it is...yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....yes it is....)

Like I said...I used the term for it like several collectors use the term "commander type" for the VF-1J Mass Production Type....sorry if that confused anyone...

Well....a "Focker" like a VF-1J Mass Production is aka "Commander Type"..... How could I forget! Added.... ​

So here is what I came up with as far as Macross toys that were never re-released and would probably (maybe?) sell decently if they were: Takatoku: GBP-1 set or combo (re-release would probably be via Bandai) Bandai: 1/55 VF-1S Strike Valkyrie 1/55 VE-1 Elint Seeker 1/55 VT-1 Super Ostrich Yamato: 1/60 VF-4G Lightning 1/60 VT-1 Super Ostrich 1/60 VF-1J Super Valkyrie Max Type 1/60 VF-1J Super Valkyrie Miria Type 1/60 VF-1J Mass Release/"Commander Type" 1/60 VF-X 1/60 VF-1A Angel Birds 1/60 VF-1D Virgin Road 1/60 VF-1S Low Viz version/"Stealth/Low Viz" Roy Focker 1/60 TV Fast Packs 1/100 VB-6 (if improved on the floppiness!) 1/48 VF-1A Low Viz 1/60 Destroids? (technically re-released as weathered, etc....re-releases might sell better if Arcadia bundled some extra new (support vehicles?) freebies with all of them and announced the completion of the Destroid line: Spartan and Phalanx) So kind of a short list when compared to everything that has enjoyed multiple releases....did I miss something? Any other Yamato (or other company) valks that never were re-released and are hard to find these days?

I may have found Bandai's inspiration for their VF-1S head sculpt..... = ???

canceled pre-order......placing all bets on Arcadia for PT valks going forward......based on what Bandai has done with this kit, I have little faith they can pull off a decent DX VF-1 sculpt, with that said....supporting the kit to encourage a DX VF-1 seems pointless...... Arcadia, don't fail me know!

The list of things never re-released is much shorter than the list of things that have....
