Thank you very much, I didn't even know about those issues, which makes me think if i should have buy such an expensive toy which sounds very brittle.. thanks again

You could also check Mandarake and Jungle for the items. Please keep in mind that Mandarake and Jungle sell used items (the one from NY are MISB). I also never ordered from them so I don't know personally what to expect but they seem to have a pretty good reputation.
Super VF-27:

If this is your first time importing from Japan:
- Some countries (especially in Europe) will add sales tax and customs fees to your order if you import anything from Japan.
- Nippon Yasan (NY) will mark the price on the item down which is basically tax fraud and if you ship the item with insurance you might not get any money back if the carrier lose the package (because they think the item is worth the marked down price NY stated).
- NY is not the best shop when it comes to refunds due to broken items out the box (this is common for many Japan-based shops).
- While I really like the Renewal Valkyries they have their fair share of problems (loose joints, easily scraped paint, easily broken/bent areas when handled wrongly) so you might inform yourself what to expect before spending > $200 on a toy.
Happy hunting.

Make sure you're getting the white box renewal versions if you buy Bandai. These are way better toys than the initial DX Chogokin Macross Frontier Valkyries.
Thanks I didn't even know there were some re-issues. The ones I see in amazon must be the first versions then...
Thank you, do you know a place where I could get them?, thanks.
The VF-25G might be hard to find for a reasonable price. Hopefully Bandai reissues him sooner or later. As for the VF-27, try to find the one with the super parts it should be a little easier to find vs the VF-25G. Like barurutor said, find the White boxed versions. The Green version VF-27 comes out in a couple of months if you want to go that route. These have ball joints that sometimes loosens over time but can befixed.

I'm thinking in buying a DX Chogokin Brera (the red one) and the Michael one (blue one) do you think those have good quality or should I spend my money in another brand instead of bandai? I've never had one before.. thanks!

I just watched the DYRL movie and it's awesome, why does Minmei stays doing 1,2,3,4 at the end?, or maybe it is before she was sing the song? also what's the name of the song in the last fight in the macross series ? is it the same on the song than in DYRL?

Do you know guys how much is going to be? also is it going to be sold on the US?...
-
Yes, it has both on one disc. But be aware that it is only the regular edition and not the limited edition with all the extra stuff like Flashback 2012 and the documentary, books, filmstrip, etc.
Oh ok thanks, I see... do you know or does anybody know where I could get for cheap that disc ? (the bluray movie and the game), thanks!.

Hi there guys, is the following product:
the ps3 game (my boyfriend is a pilot) and the do you remember love movie?, thanks!
-
are those original? how come all the episodes are in 4 discs?I know it's sold already but i see them on ebay and wanted to check with someone that actually had them, thanks!.
-
All of them? how much were you asking?.
-
Thanks for all your kind responses!, regards.
My guess is that it's a rip of the dubbed hulu episodes and probably low quality. How else could it all fit on 4 dvds?
Yeah, never seen a 4 disc distribution of the series, and like you said it's gotta bee piss poor quality videos in order to have them all.
No release company is a big red flag, especially when they claim that there is an English dub included.
Might be an illegitimate rip of the well done AnimEigo dub - and that would be the best case scenario as far as listening to it.If there was no English dub, I would tend to think it was some "Grey Market" Hong kong (or somewhere else in Asia) copy. Technically legal there, but commonly sold outside with varying legal basis.
But no company name on the box + Dub = Worry.I didn't think about the company but sounds pretty logical...
"This is an Authentic product, NOT a Copy."
Yeah, it's fake. No catalogue number, forget it.
Yup you're right, thanks again!.

Hi there, one question for all of you, was there ever a 4 disc box set for the Super Dimension Fortress Macross?. There's a seller on e-bay selling one, I'm thinking is fake, I asked the seller and he says he's got a supplier on asia but I don't think I've ever seen this boxset before, what do you guys think?
-
Hi there, do you still have it?. Thanks.
