Hey guys.....I am actually SUPER WORRIED about breaking something when I do TF this guy tonight...is there ANYTHING, ANYTHING AT ALL, that I should know NOT TO DO or TO DO so that I do not break him. I would have hate to have wasted the $.

Just watch the videos on this page and you'll be fine (the videos are near the bottom of the page)

no e-mail yet from HLJ

me either

Ya the SDF-1 isn't very dynamic.

Should have my VF-1J today.

BBTS has the preorder up for the VF-1A

here

Haha. I love the little blurb that says "Skull One = Cool"

All of the rumors that I have heard indicate that most of the figs in the 5 pack will be released carded or in the comic 2 packs. Out of all of the figs in the 5 packs, I only really wanted Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Cobra Commander, and Destro. I think I will leave my 5 packs unopened and pick up the other figs when they are released on cards or in comic packs.

Wonder when we'll start seeing prototype images? Have we known about any of the other releases this far in advance without seeing prototype pictures? Probably so, but I can't seem to remember any.

I already found all of the wave 2 figs except Serpentor I had a terrible time trying to find wave 1 figs at retail. All I ever found was the 5 packs and a single carded Snake Eyes v2. Either wave 2 has received better distribution than wave 1, or I just got really lucky

Why is the thread about the 25th anniversary figures getting posts about Sigma 6 junk? j/k. I thought I liked the S6 figs at first, but after buying the wave 1 Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow, I decided that I do not like them. The overly stylized/animated look just doesn't appeal to me

Reference:

Just got back from Wal Mart (ugh) and I actually managed to find all of Wave 2 except for Serpentor. I was actually able to score 2 Beach Heads and 2 Cobra Troopers. I was quite shocked, not to mention a little bit embarrassed at the cash register

I managed to get all of wave 1 of the 25th anniversary figs except for the "Pimp Daddy" Destro convention exclusive! I had to resort to eBay though Hopefully I will have better luck with wave 2 at retail.

I haven't received a notice from HLJ yet either, and I placed my pre-order back in March. What gives? Should I be worried?

Yeah, I've been really paying attention lately and it definitely logs you out if your IP address changes, just like JBO suggested.

Will that SDF-1 come with a bendable waist?

More importantly, it better have a head that turns and knees...it must have KNEES!!!

Why exactly would clearing temporary internet files reset his login?

I'm getting the VF-1S for sure. If jenius's guess is right and these do get really cheap later on after their initial release, I might just pick up the 19 and maybe even a second 1S.

This is like the 1/48 LV1 all over again Nobody wants these RIGHT NOW, but in 2 years people will be shelling out $300USD for one Actually, I guess I'm in the minority, I think the VF-1S looks awesome. I've already pre-ordered the VF-1S, but am unfortunately going to probably pass on the YF-19

So, I was at Target the other night and decided to swing by the toy section. All they had was a single Snake Eyes v2. I had told myself that I wasn't going to collect these 25th anniversary figs, but decided to go ahead and buy SE since he was only $6. Long story short, now I want to get the rest of these figs. I've tried all the local stores, but no luck. Does anyone know a good place to buy these online that actually has them in stock? BBTS and Hasbro.com have been out of stock since forever it seems, and the prices on ebay are ridiculous

Any one happen to know the numerical registration for the respective valks?

Max is 202 and Miria is 303

That depends on Graham's response from Yamato.

As far as selling this, I don't think I want to take this on. There about 30 new parts just to make this all happen. I would like Yamato to produce and distribute this to all. Believe me, you don't want to know the estimated cost to perform this recasting task.

Hmm, can I read between the lines here and assume you have presented your ideas to Yamato with Graham's help? If so that's awesome, even if it doesn't come to fruition (of course we would all be happier if it did )

I prefer the Paris Act version also, but would buy either (or both, hint hint) should Yamato choose to produce them

I don't think I can afford for Yamato to redo the VF-1 line again in 1/60

It saddens me that so many people apparently don't share my enthusiasm for this movie. This movie is flat out awesome

isn't this the 6th re-issue ? Well whatever it is

I hope they keep to what they said about making smaller boxes for re-issues .

Actually, I hope they DON'T change the packaging. I'm so OCD, I'd be tempted to buy another VF-1S, just to have one of each packaging variant

You mean they're reissuing this thing again? How many reissues is this now? 5?

While I do like the YF-19, I already have the normal version and I just don't like the YF-19 enough to buy another. The VF-1S, on the other hand, is a definite buy. I'm pretty much a sucker when it comes to the VF-1 though. Hell, I was probably one of the only people here willing to admit that I would have bought the "Spirit of Valkylie" VF-1J shown earlier. As far as the markings are concerned, I could care less whether they're tampo printed or stickers.
