Figure out an average...then add about 10% for fees and about 40 usd for international shipping...it should give you a reasonable estimate of current market price....adjust for things like missing box, missing accessories, condition, etc. if applicable....

Thanks!

Hi guys, I’ve got a boxed Yamato 1/60 VF-11B im looking to offload. I was wondering what they go for these days as I couldn’t find much info on them. Thanks. 

Hi MW, I’m after a MasterMade Makuros SDF-1. Just got guzumped in a deal on Facebook so I thought I’d try here. Not too fussed on box condition or even if it has a box as long as it’s complete and in great condition. 
 

Thanks!

Particularly if it's matte finish like the YF-29 re-release. Vf-25S matte finish please! And of course Vf-31A. 

Yep. Looking forward to matte. But most of all looking forward to there hopefully being plenty of preorders for all. 

Always happy when the best looking modern Valk gets another spin.

Has anyone from Australia received their focker 1s yet? Particularly from Nin Nin?

Mine arrived from Anime Export last night. 

What do you reckon a Yamato 1/60 VF-4G is worth, complete with all accessories and instructions, but no box?

What leg? Left or right?

The toys they had planned for the fourth season of Animated would have been great. A Super-Megatron and Powermaster Optimus would have been awesome. Throw in that we would have likely got Omega Supreme and I get really sad when I think about what we missed

Cheers dude. I snoozed and I loozed

Is the PF still in stock anywhere? HLJ had 2 and I was waiting until I got paid yesterday. Checked just now and they have disappeared sometime in the last week. AARRGGHH. None on Jungle or Manda either.

You could frequently check if Mandarake lists any, though they don't have any listed in stock right now.

Barring that, you're probably better off at this point waiting for a re-release or just get the Zeta when it comes out, unless you have some online retailers based in Australia that were offering them. In which case you use a web monitor to check if any have become available for pre-order due to customer cancellations.

I ordered mine long after all the windows had closed and by chance, was around when one popped up on BBTS and my web monitor alerted me.

 

It seemed to me like that was a combination of a side effect of of them destroying most of civilization which allowed nature to reclaim a lot of areas and possibly a bit of terraforming to help make things more suitable for themselves, but don't quote me on that.

You set it to monitor a specific page. Like a search results page. You can monitor the whole page or a specific element or elements of a page. The more narrow you can restrict it to, the fewer false positives you'll possibly get. For example if you monitor the entire page, if there are ads on the page and they cycle, you will end up getting an alert everytime the ad changes.

I usually pick the element of the page that contains just the search results.

If you have a page for a specific item, but it's not ready for preorder or is out of stock, the I usually just have the part that says preorder or out of stock selected so when is ready to be added to cart, that should change.

I haven't used Yahoo auctions before, but same principle. If no one is selling a taka 1/55 VE-1, then your search results show no listings. So you pick the search result area and if a listing shows up, it will alert you that there was a difference detected on the page.

You can set it to alert you in various ways, like a windows pop up notification, play a ding, or email you.

Thanks.

i had checked Manda and Jungle just before posting here, but no luck. I’ll definitely give a web monitor a go.

Is the Legioss still available anywhere for a reasonable price? NY cancelled my preorder while I was enquiring about upgrades shipping and then refused to honor the original price. Then I got busy with some other goings on and now it seems like it’s either sold out or stupidly priced. 

I think you’d have to be mad ordering from Nin Nin after last night.

i hope I’m wrong though and everyone who did order gets theirs. 

I can see the item link on HLJ when I search for it. But when I click add to cart it crashes.

Lol. Was constantly refreshing CDJapan, Hobby Search and Ami Ami. Never saw an add to cart button.

Hobby Search sold out. Didn't even see it  in stock

May the best collectors win.

I did yes, But I thought it was starting to get excessive and far too exoensive. I also had a few things I needed to sort out in my life and selling off my collection helped fund certain things and I wanted to try other things that I was into way back in my early years for example RC.

Model cars had been a thing of mine since forever and I honestly thought continuing with that would be cheaper and satisfy me but I guess I was wrong. Yes I acknowledge that I made a mistake selling off absolutely everything instead of keeping some stuff but now that lesson has been learnt. Even just today transforming the DX 1:48's was so much fun and its actually exciting to have a few Valkyries again considering its been a life long (since 1982) passion and I know I shouldn't have let go of it.

It's all cool. I've actually started getting into the RC hobby myself lately, but only RC tanks in particular. The RC culture is very different from my usual toy collecting since in the RC hobby (at least from what I've seen), it's almost expected that people customize their stuff. MISB or stock models usually hold the lowest value. I could be wrong but that's what I've experienced so far in the last 3 months.

RC cars is my other expensive hobby besides transforming robots. Damn things are always breaking. Plus it’s something fun my son and I can do together.

While I'm very much looking forward to SoC Vehicle Voltron/Dairugger, what I'd really love is an SoC Legendary Defender Voltron. Does anyone know if LD was well-received in Japan? I'm pretty sure it was on Japanese Netflix.

I really hope SoC LD happens

Has anyone who ordered from NY get theirs yet? Mine hasn't even shipped. I wonder if they're trying to take car of it in house before shipping.

Mine was shipped the other day by slow boat. The waiting begins!

So some has received the gx-71 reissue from NY? Mine is still in prepayment ok. Sending ticket a second time just now ..

One of my

friends told me today that he received his from NY last week.

If you could only have one, would it be the Bandai YF-19 or the VF-19 Advance? Is there any difference in the quality of either release? I already have the Arcadia 19 so am leaning towards the Advance, although the missile pack is super tempting.

thanks.
