  1. Where did you get that enclosure/backdrop?
  2. I was a bit late to this PO and missed out on it, anyones had any luck getting close to MSRP on release? I only have a 1S currently and would love to have a Roy to go side by side with him
  3. What’d you use for your panel lining? Looks clean
  4. Clicked your link a half hour ago. Turns out there was another one listed (Pre-owned ITEM:A/BOX:B)DX Chogokin Movie VF-1S Valkyrie (Hikaru Ichijyou Custom) "Macross: Do You Remember Love?"(Released) Unit price 25,980 Picked it up, my first VF-1, first 1/48 I’ve owned. Thank you for posting this!
  5. How much was shipping on it from Mandrake?
  6. Anyone have an idea when the next pre-orders could be? I wanted a Hikaru, but honestly it's going for a 100+ over the original price. Hard to justify it.
  7. I have zero faith I'll stop at one, hoping to nab one of these and the Roy, and if the VF-1A continues to drop in price as it has been, that could be a huge maybe
  8. If no one else has claimed, I am interested. I haven't had a chance to get a 1/48 VF-1 yet, or any classic Macross in general and this would be a great starter
  9. I really should've chosen my words a lot more carefully. lol, Jenius, I'm digging the review.
  10. I'm curious how everyone feels about the YF-29's having to push out the waist joint for it to be in its robot mode? I find it really finicky and unstable. I'm eyeing it side by side to my VF-19 Advance and I feel like it may have just spoiled every other veritech for me. Do any have the clean lines that it does in the VF-25, YF-29 line? Or is it just that gorgeous.
  11. Anyone interested in a VF-19 Advance and couldn't get one? Jungle has a decent price on one. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=1275258

    Advice Needed

    Where would you even get a VF-25S from at a reasonable price? I've got a VF-19 Advance and absolutely love it, but a VF-25S would be the one Frontier Valk I'd hanker for, and have had no luck finding at a decent price. But you really can't go wrong with either. The VF-19 is a must have in my opinion because it has that modernized design, yet still a classic look.
  13. Oh yeah, account suspended here. HLJ is really putting their best foot forward, what gives? I mean, I imagined they might cancel the orders if they're overfilled, but flat out suspensions.
  14. So far whatever has been available seems to have gone through, so let's assume that stock is just plenty and there's enough to go around. Likely someone cancelled an order they just put in, or someone cancelled their reserve. This is honestly one of the best looking valks I've seen in a long time.
  15. You're a saint, my friend. Good looking out.
  16. Should already be going on sale right about now, isn't it?
  17. All of you who pick up multiple copies are absolutely killing it for people who haven't had a chance to get their first ones in. -.-
  18. Where's everyone picking up the super parts for cheap at?

    Hi-Metal R

    Nah, these things will likely stick around a bit. I wouldn't sweat it for anyone expecting preorder madness.
  20. Why dammnnit where else would you get one? I Was disapponted that the one at cd japan got picked up since I got the Perceival preordered with them. Would've killed for combined shipping.
  21. Preach it, Mommar, I can't even pretend I won't buy into no3ljm's suggestion and pick up a VF-19 off of N-Y. The temptation is real.
  22. I absolutely appreciate the suggestion. I guess a 'break glass incase of' site like NY isn't a bad recourse at the end of the day.
  23. Not raining on my parade at all, I've seen how this hobby works, some guys pick up 6+ plus copies, others can't even get 1. I know some places like hlj, cdjapan have a preorder quantity but still receive more upon release (though this is a crapshoot.) I'm still waiting to pick up my first Valk, so I'm in the beggars will remain beggars world. -.- No3ljm, I try to avoid Nippon Yasan, their prices are usually ridiculously high, a scalper works just the same on Amazon at that point.
  24. Anyone know when the release date is as of yet? I know it's slated for late May, but I'm curious when it'll show up, as I'd love to get a chance to pick it up (since i missed out on preorders.) I imagine Amiami, HLJ, or CDJapan will have a few left over morning of release? I never knew I needed the VF-19 in my life, but I absolutely do. It's gorgeous.
