  1. Pretty neat! Are there more colors available with possibly different graphics? Congrats.
  2. I think you would be better off finding a TF Jetfire gun as these KOs are getting expensive. Last I saw these versions sold for about 50-75.
  3. These are still being sold to this day. Latest 2021 edition.
  4. It might have all been done without Takatoku’s or Matsushiro’s approval. Most of the molds auctioned off and ended up in various places of China and Korea. Only official molds remained in Japan with Matsushiro/Bandai and Macau for MB TF Jetfire. It’s amazing that there are about 70 or so VF-1 out there from the Takatoku boxes thru blister packed versions.
  5. NY never again, no matter what.
  6. If I remember correctly, the manufacturer is Nikky out of Taiwan.
  7. This could be the reason but maybe sales figures were too low and Bandai decided not to make them. And possibly the same for VE-1 and VT-1.
  8. That is a very good point.
  9. Or is it a 1/100 Jumbo?!? Seriously, it’s a 1/55. Only by looking deeper we will know.
  10. In the meantime...more EU releases. This time the VF is Valkyrie stamped and the box is TT but Made in Taiwan ROC.
  11. The commercial posted previously denotes a China release, per the language spoken. But it is hard to see in the video if this is the exact same box. I still have to research the UK Reg PP No. and provide more insight. Joons had several release years. There might be more production runs than previously thought. Amongst those releases we also had concurrent runs of Space Gan Dam V and Space Fighter.
  12. What is a Matsushiro GBP?? Never heard of this.
  13. This VF-1S GBP-1S appears to be related to these.
  14. I think the one used in the commercial is actually grey. You can see the difference when the VF-1S and SDF-1 are side by side in the end of the comercial. The one in hand matches color with the one in the box. These VF-1S should have had yellow accent colors, but I guess red was more readily available.
  15. Dayuuuuum!!! I really like that this one tells a story that makes sense. I never understood the hover over water scenes. While this looks pretty amazing...Not gonna buy.
  16. No BW sticker, but there is a UK Registered Patent Pending No. on the box. Never seen that before.
  17. It has Takatoku plastered everywhere. Have to do some more research.
  18. Sooo.... This happened.
  19. Very nice. The M&M color of the Yamato 1/48 always looked just right. Congratulations!
  20. derp /dərp/ INFORMAL exclamation used as a substitute for speech regarded as meaningless or stupid, or to comment on a foolish or stupid action. "Lower tax rates and far lower job creation. Derp" noun foolishness or stupidity. "the derp heard outside apparently was only the tip of the iceberg" In reference to the silliness of the style and shape of the old skull and crossbones.
  21. Surprised this broke so easily. I am still on the fence about buying these. They look great and these KOs have nice shelf presence. Can you share pictures of the break?
  22. Great score! Always a favorite color scheme.
