Man I haven't replied to this thread in over a year so I guess I can give an update: 1/48=0, Yea I sold em all 1/60=14 1/100=4

I remember seeing a prototype 1/100 VF-0S a few years back but it never happened, I'm personally happy with where they left Mac-0.

Youre kidding right? $300 is a lot for a LOT of people.

It kind of sucks, I'm on both sides of the fence when it comes to the ankles. Yes, I do feel pretty pissed that my new $300+ figure has crappy ankles that can't pull off the iconic dynamic poses I want, but on the other hand, I am not a big fan of gerwalk anyway, especially the gerwalk on the VF-19. I honestly think people have the right to be mad, everyone is complaining "oh why do you want to do that pose anyway?" Well to each his own, if someone wants to do the craziest, lowest, nose on the groundest gerwalk, for $300 they should be able to, Yamato has been pulling out the stops on their newest toys but once again people are getting Yamato'ed. I personally love this valk and I have been watiing for one to come out for literally YEARS, I am pretty happy with what I got, disappointments aside since my personal preference is to love this thing to death since it is one of my all times favorites.

I am, but as a matter of personal opinion I really don't think the rvf-25 looks goofy, yeah it has the dish but I never liked it on there, I leave it off and then it's just a beautiful green vf-25. The VT-1 and VE-1 are just way to much for me, particularly the heads, they don't even resemble a VF-1, I don't know I just thought they were kind of lame, which is pretty much a polar opposite of everyone else since they are 2 of the rarest and most sought after 1/60's now.

I always thought the VE-1 and VT-1 looked really, really goofy .

I LOVE this thing! I agree I'm strongly disliking gerwalk, but this particular valk always had an ugly gerwalk anyway. I contemplated selling mine as soon as I got it since the gerwalk is a bust, but after handling it I might keep it around for a while since the other modes are just that good. This was the top valk I always wanted in a detailed ass expensive toy form, my second choice is the VF-4, so yea, Graham, get to it.

I know they're trying to drop the old stock which is probably another good indication a V3 is indeed on the way, but damn, that price is outrageous. I think I may be one of the few who dislikes the yf-19 and Mac+, which is weird because I absolutely love the new vf-19, that said it seems pretty evident you will all get you V3. Since I have my dream valk from emerald force on the way I'll give you all the benefit of my doubt, I am STOKED for a new yf-19, I'll buy 3 so I can have a crazy all prototype squad, bring it on Yamato!

The yf-19 is back in stock at HLJ, oh and look they want an arm AND a leg for it, seriously who the hell would buy it at that price? It's an old mold and design, that's flawed and prone to c4 shoulders, you can almost get one of the new vf-19's for that price. I have never been a fan of the yf-19 and I honestly hated Mac+, so a new version yf-19 would still be an easy pass even if it had all the new updates.

Now I'm all scared and discouraged about receiving my Blazer on Wednesday. This particular 19 was always my favorite valk design, I've loved it since I first saw it in Mac7 when I was 9 back in 1999, and now that a super amazing toy came out of it I got hyped, but for me if there's issues with the gerwalk I might return mine and just wait for a re-release or something. Hell I might even start a saving stash for the eventual 17D, either way I am now depressed .

You sir have much more patience than I, if some random a-hole at my work was keeping my expensive imported figure from me I'd probably go so far as to threaten him and call him every curse word in the book, then I'd hit him, I know I'm pretty bad.

You know I always see the group buys but I never get in on them, when the RVF-25 comes out I'll be buying all the exclusives for it.

I don't know, I personally thought this thing was ugly from the get go, plus it was exclusive, exclusive, exclusive.

Estimated delivery date 12/7/11, can't effin wait!!!!

Ho ho ho a shipping notice for me as well, I was kind of panicking when I saw everyone else posting about shipping notices and I hadn't gotten mine yet, I thought I had missed the pre-order or something.

I gotta say the mold looks fantastic, it seems nice and durable too, all the joints clicked. But I am still turned off by the head, it just looks awful, that said I'm sure we'll see the D announced soon enough, then it's time to break out the wallet.

You know I used to have nearly the entire 1/48 line, and I told myself I'd never get a 1/60 vf-1. That of course was about a year ago, and 5 v2 vf-1's later I'm happy I sold off my 1/48 line, they were WAY to big, box and figure, not accurate enough for my liking, and the selections are quite limited.

Good to know, I figured there was an explanation and a certain time that the line switched from B to C. As far as toys go, it seems like a good idea for yamato to put out a jamming bird. I mean they've pretty much perfected the VF-11 mold, seeing as how they are now releasing Mac7 valks it would seem like a good idea to break out the old VF-11 mold and update it, I'd honestly be in for one.

I forgot about the pink peckers, lol, they weren't a very important part of the show and honestly only mentioned a handful of times. I looked on the macross mecha manual, I'm surprised yamato hasn't released the jamming birds and pink peckers yet, they seem like easy enough remolds and we all know yamato, milk that crap.

I really do hope they make a 17D, since I just finished Mac7 again I really got into the 17, but not the s. And as far as a Millia repaint goes, no thanks, it was in what, one episode?

I just finished re-watching Mac7 and one thing I noticed is that there is not one single vf-11b in the whole show, all the cannon fodder is vf-11c. It seems weird to me, I mean they're already using the vf-11 as there primary work horse, wouldn't they use all the different variants? I mean was the step up from 11b to 11c really so great that they decided to not use ANY 11b's? Either way I never got an 11c as I think the pilot looked pretty goofy, and I prefer the color scheme of the 11b, if you don't have one get one, it's near perfect, like everyone said the shield is the only downside.

I still want my god damn TV sdf-1, c'mon graham tell yamato to do it already.

I'm just wondering is the 19S going to have the same cockpit gimick for battroid as the 19 kai? I mean it only makes sense that it would and should, but I just wanna be sure, I haven't seen any pics.

For me it's the 19 hands down, honestly the 19S was the only new 19 I wanted to get, but right before I graduated college my roommate got a 19 Kai and I fell in love the bright glossy red. I finally got one after I repeatedly told myself I wouldn't. The 19S has always been and always will be my all time favorite 19 in the entirety of the Macross universe.

Yikes the gerwalk looks as atrocious as ever.
