  1. would it be fair to say that the VF-171 was very different from the VF-25 and YF-29 designs then?
  2. You mean.. like the Koenig Monster?
  3. Is the VF-27 your first Frontier Valk? If so, I feel your mileage will vary. I personally found him to be difficult to transform, and even more unwieldy with the Super Pack on. I got so fed up trying to transform him that I've left him in Fighter mode permanently. If anything, I'd recommend any of the VF-25 renewals (or the newer ones based on the retooled Renewal designs) over the VF-27 as your first foray into Frontier. Nippon Yasan are okay. They're great for getting web exclusive, demand payment immediately for in-stock items, though they do delay shipping stuff a little. But so far, I have no issues receiving stuff from them. Can't comment on after-sales services, though I believe generally if you have any breakage for Bandai stuff, you're pretty much out of luck regardless, as they (Bandai) don't do replacements.
  4. 4?!...1 for each mode and 1 mint as backup? I sure hope you have display space for them.
  5. 10/10 would buy. it better have openable missle pods
  6. ^ I'm pretty much already down for 2. 1 in fighter and 1 in battroid. love the look and paint scheme. I only hope it doesn't end up costing a bajillion dollars and that bandai doesn't screw this up with the qc and engineering also wondering if Bandai will wait for Arcadia's VF-0D goes up for preorder before putting this up - you know fight delta wings with delta wings
  7. this only makes me wish they had applied it to the upcoming YF-19
  8. I'm in the exact same situation as you. I'm a little anxious too, but it seems others have had no issues with them, so I'm looking forward to receiving mine soon. I'm still contemplating letting go of my 2nd order with HLJ at their black friday price. Recently acquired a spare Yamato Ingram and it's gonna take a huge chunk outta my wallet
  9. those look like the arms T-Rex used for their collaboration with Sentinel for the Black and Red Getter-1. I wonder if T-Rex is involved in this.
  10. I don't quite get the Planter joke. anybody care to explain? owning 4 x 25Fs, I guess I'm glad I can skip the reissue. On the other hand this latest reissue should see some nice tight joints like the 25A
  11. ^ itami means damaged. In your case, they're saying the item is unused, but box is damaged.
  12. Probably just leftover stock from the last VF-25F reissues last year.
  13. Believe it or not, as fun as it is, it's pretty overhyped. Also, PC version ftw
  14. I was contemplating whether to keep my 2nd order on HLJ (with Black Friday discount no less). But with a kid coming any time now, and having just recently acquired the semi rare Hot Toys War Machine Mk 1, I might have to cancel it afterall
  15. Ahhh darn.. Was hoping it'd look like the Yamato one. Not sure if I should get one now, because I don't even ride a bike, and it would probably end up as a display piece or something I wear every now and then to conventions.
  16. To be fair, blu-rays in Japan cost a lot more to begin with. It's also the indirect reason some publishers do not release a US copy of their anime series anymore (see Gurren Lagann). Too many japanese consumers were reverse importing the much cheaper US version of their anime series, eating into the local sales.
  17. still available. this is amazing And I guess gives us an indicator of how available these will be after release. I'll stick to just the first one I ordered. Running out of space to display Valks
  18. so, is that bluish tint on the visor final? I like it in that colour
  19. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29541
  20. it was up long enough for me to make my original post while I was ordering, and 2 subsequent posts (which got combined with the 1st post), and an edit to boot. so... yeah, I'd say pretty long Sorry, I don't really time these things
  21. nah, it was up for quite a bit longer than that. I was watching it, refreshing a few times, not believing my eyes that it stayed up fairly long.
