Hmmm.. my top 5 have gotta be in the following order.. 1. VF-1J especially the Hikaru paint scheme! 2. VF-1A but with the TV version type head (no goggle) 3. VF-4G in fighter mode though! not so keen on its other modes.. 4. VF-19F its huge! and looks bad ass tough in all modes! 5. VF-1D cos of its historical significance & with a head only a mother could love!

Gahh I'm gonna be totally screwed if or when they release a v3 of the 1/60 range as I'd probably end up re-mortgage or sell my house to pay for them all! Then what to do with all my older v2's which I might not like or want anymore.. Hopefully they won't do that anytime soon as there isn't much wrong with the current v2's in my opinion..

I think I read something about this somewhere but can't be certain.. something to do with the tips on the rod ends?

Got my shipping / tracking information email from USPS today. Still no word directly from FlightPose themselves which is kinda irritating.. oh well at least its good to know that the stand is finally on its way!

my latest Yamato 1/60 purchases.. VF-1A TV Max $198 (UDS) shipped - from forum member (Caslon) VF-1S Roy DYRL $259 (USD) shipped MISB ebay VF-19F Emerald Force $273 (USD) shipped MISB ebay prices may seem a little on the high side but postage to Australia is always a killer..

yep cant help but feel the same way.. I was gonna order a few other different sizes.. scratch that idea.

I sent another email today.. too bad if he gets the Shits with all my emails but I want to know where my item is.. It cant be that hard to send an email with a tracking number surely..

Yeah I did notice they are no longer on pre-order status but I still haven't seen a shipping notification or tracking number.. I did email them again last week and once again no response.. I feel I can't really complain too much as they aren't that expensive but its still annoying.

Hey all, Is there anyone else out there who is still waiting on back orders from FlightPose? I ordered a stand from them over 3 months ago and still have not seen it arrive.. I sent them about half dozen emails before getting a response of which they said they'd be shipping mid to late June but im guessing that still hasn't happened as yet..

this is an amazing thread! Great work!

I cant say I really like the paint job on it.. looks a little too busy. And whats with the tinted cockpit glass?? yuck. On the other hand it would be good to get one being the first Valkyrie released by Arcadia and the collectible factor that would go with it of course but im just not liking the look of it at all. =( Hopefully all those smaller decals on the chest plate and legs don't come pre-applied. Even the 30th anniversary logo on the blast shield would be good not there. On the plus side its a "J" which are my fav variant!

Yeah I must say it does look like it has some potential!

ahhh jealous! you ppl have sooo many cool mechs!

Hey yeah they are hard to get! There are a couple of v1 versions for sale but I don't particularly like them. Most of my previous collection was YamYam v1's and chunky 1/55's. I only recently missed out on a VT-1 last month on ebay. Was pricey but I regret not buying it.. Getting the VF-4G has made up for it but I still want the VT-1. Anyone out there got any doubles they wish to sell off? hehe! Also its a shame they messed up your order Sephiroth.. same happened to me buying off ebay. That's why I have 4x Kakizaki's.. 3x the same colour.. They sent me a Kakizaki VF-1A instead of a 1J but in the end I didn't mind cos now I have them all on display each in a different configuration and they look really cool! =D Thought I'd also mention that the following words "sold out" & "Item has been discontinued" are really killing my life.. =(

My dream of owning a VF-4G has now come true! Thanks to Cdisdope for your help! My next mission is a Yamato 1/60 VT-1 Super Ostrich (v2). Any helpers!?

Hehe! I too just did a mad panic buy! Spent about $2500 on 10x VF-1 (YAMATO 1/60) 1x VF-1D 2x VF-1J 7x VF-1A Also thinking about a VF-0 and VF-11 but I'm broke now! Would love a VF-4 but that's only in my dreams..

at the moment its gotta be my Yamato 1/60 VF-1J (mass production version) at $500 delivered.. that stung a little as 6 months ago I could have gotten one cheaper. Then at a tie are my 1/18 Autoart Pagani Zonda R and another Yamato VF-1J Hikaru Ichijo at around $350 delivered. oh no wait I have a Signed Minichamps Valentino Rossi 1/12 Honda NSR500 bike & rider set which was just over $1000.

after foolishly (though not completely my fault) selling off my Macross / Robotech collection years earlier I have now started recollecting some Valkyries only to find out that Yamato has gone bust.. gahhhh.. The only upside to collecting again is that the newer versions of the Valkyrie (Yamato 1/60) are far superior in design that what I had previously. But sheesh some have proven painfully expensive to buy again. I am after a VF-4 but can't muster up the courage to pay what people are asking for them.. im so sad

woah! geez there are some lovely items on display in there! =)
