  1. That was more the global economy being completely different.

    If Yamato was still around today they'd have to charge the same... but they aren't around haha

    Actually yes. Full price VF-19 in 2011 = £185. Full price VF-0D in 2014 = £210. If anything, it is the japanese market that should be freaking out !

  2. Look at it the other way. Studio Half Eye's Dangaioh costs almost 4 times as much. If you think long and hard, you may feel better. :wacko: My question is: Will they release the grey version too? Which i prefer infinitely more? And also will this be the price for a future VF-0A or S? Now this is where it gets a nauseating!

  3. This is the same prototype from the magazine. We can all agree it's going to be a pretty nice bird right?

    To be honest i'm disappointed with the black blotches of paint on the chest to resemble holes. For the sort of money this will cost they certainly can punch them in, can't they? I don't mind spending 30000 Yen + if asked, but i want some production values approaching the VF-4G.

  4. 1.a. VF-1s with the strike pack

    1.b. SV-51 Ivanov

    1.c. VF-0S

    2. Not sure, maybe the gundams that can transform into planes, e.g. Zeta, justice, rezel?

    Aquarion has a somewhat debatable Gerwalk mode. You can see it here at 3:44. Poseless but fun.

  5. Yeah, I've had valks on the list that didn't break. either way they should have listed it if they knew. If they didn't it's still damaged.

    I called paypal and opened up a claim. We'll see. I'll have to eat the shipping but the replacement shoulder wouldn't be painted correctly, so I don't see how helpful that would be.

    I'm not a hobby guy haha

    Although they may have known they probably know it is a manufacturer issue as they do know their stuff, and thought someone who managed to navigate to the VT-1 from the other side of the world probably expects it. Personally i would be more annoyed if it had been sold to me by a private person!

  6. Probably just the box being a little dinged. I've bought B stuff before and never had any issues.

    They would list a major defect me thinks.

    With EMS it was only $305 shipped.

    Yeah I thought about the re-issue possiability but those will probably... like with the M&M's... if they ever frakking come out... will be close to 220ish + shipping anyway. So it's probably only $40-50 bucks more. And who know if they will leave out some tamp or use another plastic. Plus I just love the Yamato releases, and I love this valk.

    Obviously i'm jealous which is why i had to convince myself i shouldn't buy it! If they re-issue it it won't have the rainbow canopy which i love, so i too am on the lookout for a Yamato but on the other hand even if i got a solid copy i would still want a re-issue with good shoulders. Macross collecting can mess with your head!

  7. Hello Members,

    I had listed 2 sets of the VF-1 Super&Strike Parts on ebay but as i had not sold internationally for a very long time i had got the shipping fees all wrong. I seem to have gotten them right this time! Apologies to some members from the forum who contacted me about those!

  8. Looks smaller and sleeker than the YF-29 for some reason. Just want to take it out and fly it around the office. But than people will think I went nuts.

    I wonder what would happen if all of us worked in the same office, and we got our orders all at the same time. :-) Madhouse!

  9. I felt bad and sold one of my NY POs at cost to another member :0

    just one new ozzy for me in november..5 is still enough

    If that member does not have the super or armor parts... you destroyed him. You need at least 45000YEN for both. I only have one Ozma, but i don't feel compelled to get another. I got mine on the first issue without problems, so my psychological state is not affected about this release. However when the VT-1 re-issue arrives!

  10. For anyone in England or Seattle......I hate you.

    Love..anyone in TX.

    LOL.

    London here... Storage-friendly temperature and sunscreen for everyone 330 days a year. Humidity sometimes worries me but it's not like i live in a shed !

  11. I did bid on that one but I stopped at ¥17,500 and don't use Rinkya because Buyee is much cheaper. ;)

    The person who outbid you is someone i have seen on other auctions for Gundam Master Grades. He generally sticks to 20ish so if you had gone a bit higher you might have won! I must sound like a stalker, but after a couple of years Yahoo Auctions are a bit like going down the country club :-P (We don't have country clubs in London)

  12. I need anonther version of the YF-19, I don't want to buy the same Izamu color.

    C'mon Arcadia, make it white, black or grey please!

    Black with gold highlights had been done and it was unsightly. (YF-19 25th anni.) A "Black Aces" repaint however would be sexier than anything yet seen.

  13. sheesh!! that's a lot of 171 love right there! the one of two Valks im most likely never gonna buy.. the 17 & 171.. but still great photos though! B))

    Yamato's 17 makes most valks (other than the VF-4G) seem like something produced by Revoltech. The plastic was so smooth and pleasing to the touch, sometimes i felt like... well, touching it. I did stop there, so no weirdness other than that!!!

  14. I have bought through Nin-Nin one postive and one negative.

    The first order went through without a problem, the 2nd order wasn't shipped out after 3 weeks. I finally asked for the order to be cancelled and got refunded.

    Same with me! I had ordered the VF-19P back in 2013 when it showed as in stock for RRP, but they cancelled it after a couple of days. Then...

    Didn't happen immediately, but i wasn't too surprised! However i did get a VF-27 renewal from them.
