Another vintage IMAI promo poster.....

So many small parts involved....a production line assembly video of a VF being built at the factory must be pretty interesting to watch from start to finish....wonder if Yamato/Arcadia has one of those lying around....

ouch!

...or just copy the "gimmicks" from the 1/48....done! Everyone is happy!.......maybe.....

Anyone in Japan going to the Genga Exhibition? If so, can you help me get this postcard book....will gladly pay ahead of time...thanks!

We sure don't...but i think the logic behind it is that Arcadia needs a "V3" to appear as if their PT Valk is "different" from Yamato's V2.... The only thing I don't buy about this argument is that wouldn't that also entail needing to "retool" the molds for all other VF's if they are to be re-released??? Do we really need a VF-19 V2??? a VF-17 V2? a VF-4 V2????? Maybe that is the hold up?

Canopy doesn't swing open????

Maybe it looks off due to the scale they decided to go with.....perhaps a 1/55 or 1/48 DX will better accommodate their "gimmicks"....but if this goofy thing doesn't sell.....that possibility may start fading away.... In Arcadia we trust!!! Right?....Right!?!?!?

Straighten out the legs and it reminds me of the skinny legged Kaiyodo mini transformable figs.....maybe whoever set it up did a bad job....

maybe they were going for the 80's retro look?

Added this 3D poster to the collection.......part of the merchandise available for the Macross: The Design Exhibit during September 2012..... But no luck with this one so far....also 3D.........can anyone help me acquire one? This one was available at the Oshare Macross Exhibit in Kyoto during the final days of March 2013

Macross Collecting 101 is now in session....

Nope......dreams must be pre-ordered 6 months in advance and only during half of a standard Bandai pre-order window!

...or just wait for Arcadia to start re-releasing the valks collectors really want and the remaining VF-19 store stock may see further price cuts???....

Wouldn't you prefer a general, non-web exclusive re-release VF-4G........with "optional parts"?

It's not the Feds you need to worry about....just check with local/State tax laws to see their rules regarding goods purchased abroad.... https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/295/related/1/session/L2F2LzEvc2lkL01jUVpwZnFs/~/state-sales-taxes-on-goods-purchased-overseas-and-brought-back-to-the-u.s. https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/446/related/1/~/state-sales-taxes-on-goods-purchased-overseas-and-brought-back-to-the-u.s. For example, FedEx sends me copies of the bill of lading they provide US Customs (showing declared value)...you can be sure they would supply the same info to your state tax agencies.... With many states in the red on their budgets....this may become more of an issue as they try and find ways to "plug holes"...
