I'm thinking about buying 3 of these beauties!!! The only YF-19 I own is the black anniversary edition.

Interesting topic! Living in Japan, I don't have to worry too much about my someone breaking into my apartment and having my collection getting jacked (or getting shot in a random place, or being a victim of a bomb, or...) I have my stuff still in boxes on shelves 'cause I live in a kind of small apartment. I get mixed reactions when people see my collection depending on who it is. Most of the time, it's positive. Sometimes if it's a girl, "お金もったいない” (okane mottainai) "What a waste of money." Then I question them about how many pairs of shoes or how many clothes or bags they have and say it's the same thing. My gf doesn't mind my collecting at all...she finds it a little amusing. When I meet people for the first time, I don't mind saying that I love Macross and collect figures. I'm an English teacher and all my students know that I'm kind of an otaku. It's part of who I am, so why would I try to hide it?

You should beat him with both a Transformer and a Toy-Biz Robotech figure and show him what the difference is. What a chump.

Just got my ticket! Gonna go in August!!!

YOLO!!!

charger69, you are a Jenius!!!

Awesome news! Is there any reason to go to Wonderfest now? Hmm...

Being how some of us were fooled by the Minmei guard prank.......I'm taking this with a grain of salt. Are these really Arcadia pics or is it photoshopped?

Just a few months ago, people were all devastated that Arcadia wouldn't continue the Macross line. And now that they are, people complain about what they're offering. THAT'S what is ridiculous.

Those complaining at all should save up some money and start your own Macross toy company. Be thankful that Arcadia is continuing the line. It might not be now, but I'm sure they'll make something you'll be happy with. If they never do, then complain.

I hope you're right. I messaged Mr. K about just in case! Thanks for uploading the whole gallery!

It sold out in 6 minutes according to Mr. K.

I'm there in August when I go to Hyogo to see the VF-1S cockpit!!!

OPTION PARTS!!! *I would still be cautious...it does say on the site that the actual product may differ from the picture, but cross your fingers!

OPTION PARTS!!! *Caution* The amiami site says that the real product may differ from the picture. Let's hope it really does have option parts, though!

The reason I said this was because of the VF-4G. Every other online shop had it priced higher than Yamato. I guess the 30th Anniversary isn't an Arcadia Net Shop exclusive.

I think you'll need to be on LSD to truly enjoy this valk.

If they are going for 14,000-ish on those sites, I wonder if it'll be cheaper on Arcadia's main site...

No, because if they hired someone that person would have to be paid. Then they would have less money for making valkyries and then another panic would happen and you would be the sole person to blame.

Thought this needed its own thread to make it easier for everyone! http://arcadia.ac/macross30th/index.php

Dude...stop being dramatic. Translate away! Your translations are ALWAYS welcome.

On Twitter, Arcadia stated that pre-orders for the 30th Anniversary VF-1J will start sometime today.
