    where did you get them? yea I had it in my ebay cart and was about to buy it (from estertool) when the message popped up saying it was no longer available at that price. I was pretty annoyed

    1J looks clean man. I may have to give up my search for the 30th Anniversary and settle for that model. I think I can live without the option parts
  3. 26 days since I first started collecting. I have vf-1s Hikaru 30th Anniversary and vf-1s Max arriving this Friday and that should be it.....unless I find that vf-1j 30th Anniversary, THEN that should be it! A few more boxes and I'll be able to build my fort!
  4. your order was probably gunned downed and exploded on it's was to the shipping department. R.I.P miro79's order
  5. I wouldn't worry about dust. just keep a can of air around and give them a spray once a month or so. why is he charging you $100 when it retails for $65?
  6. Yamato USA buys the molds and starts production stateside.....and then I wake up

    Lol I missed my delivery today too! I got 3 coming on monday.
  8. I started collecting early this month and 22 days later... These are all 1/60 Version 2 VF-1S DYRL Roy Focker with Super Strike kit VF-1S DYRL Maximilian Jenius VF-1S DYRL Hikaru Ichijo 30th Anniversary with Option Parts VF-1A DYRL Hikaru Ichijo DYRL with Super Strike kit VF-1J with GBP-1S Armor set
  9. I've been fortunate with my shopping in the past 3 weeks in getting my valks from overseas with very little markup. From what I've been noticing I don't think the stocks are dwindling as fast as it appears but online retailers have been pulling them, marking them out of stock and selling them on ebay at a higher premium. This is creating a false sense of demand and driving up the prices on ebay
  10. I'm relatively new to this hobby and was initially overwhelmed by how expansive the Yamato VF-1 line is. To narrow it down I chose DYRL and started collecting the VF-1S skulls which included Roy, Hikaru and Max. Then expanded within the DYRL universe and started looking for the VF-1A skulls and the armored VF-1J.
  11. I'd like to see stronger plastic in the shoulder and backpack hinges. even though they improved in v2 I still don't have confidence in them. I'd also like to see metal used for the feet, vent covers, head lasers and backpack thrusters?
  12. 1/48 VF-1S Focker 1/48 VF-1J Hikaru 1/60 VF-1S Focker w/ Super Strike kit 1/60 VF-1S Hikaru 30th aniversary 1/60 VF-1S Maximilian 1/60 VF-1A Hikaru w/ Super Strike kit The only ones left that I want are the 1/60 VF-1J Hikaru with GBP-S and VF-1J blue and red max and miria w/ Super Strike kit
  13. I caved in and ordered a VF-1S Max from Amazon.jp using Fromjapan.jp. Thanks for the tip VF-Zer0S! Cost me $177 before fees and shipping. Somehow I managed to buy 6 Valkyries in 20 days.... my bank account is in much needed recovery.
  14. Does anyone know if the VF-1S Maximilian were only available in version 2 or did Yamato release them in version 1? Nevermind I found the answer. According to the stickied thread it was only released in 2009 as version 2? thanks! http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29393
  15. I've been on a mission to complete my DYRL Skulls and Max has been my white unicorn. I totally agree with you on it being too much work!! I already have Roy and Hikaru and thanks to Mr. VF-Zer0S I've been able to find Max but I don't know if I can convince myself to pay $220 for it, especially since I picked up Roy and Hikaru at $130 shipped each. Getting another VF-1S and repainting it seems to be an easier option. Did you repaint Roy or Hikaru? I'm curious to know which color would the blue cover better. Also which blue did you use and is the Skull on the blast shield a sticker or paint? Thanks guys!
  16. my understanding of the japanese language is non existent but how does one navigate the yahoo.jp auction site? is there a language option somewhere?
  17. man I'm having the hardest time finding a vf-1s max. im seriously considering buying an unpainted version and doing it myself
  18. this is probably a dumb question to aak but are the hands interchangeable between all the 1/60 vf-1 releases like standard, movie and tv versions? normal, cartoon hands etc. thanks guys
  19. amazing work! Is there a build up or tutorial somewhere on how to do this? It looks like a combination of the Hasegawa VF-0S fighter and battroid models
  20. so I've been on a quest to find a vf-0s and Bandai's vf-25f and discovering that these are impossible to find and come with a high price tag. Did they have low production or something?
  21. Looks like I won't be going out this month....
  22. plastik

    Is this for real?

    looks like they fixed the price. it's 305.95 now. I really hope you get it!
  23. yea I've noticed. In hind sight I probably should've picked up the 1/60 tv version and the strike kit instead, those seem to be more available and affordable
