I'd really like to know do newer, less selective fans prefer a chunky or something more anime accurate?

For me whenever I buy a toy, whether it's Macross or any other anime, I always want the toy as detailed and accurate as possible.

Heck yah! Especially if when damn figures are well over $200 USD!

Do you guys know if fast packs will be included on the first releases?

Yah...Danny...not sure if he's still at it full time, but he was admin for web for amazon and microsoft for a bit making the big bucks. I found him through searches for perfect grade gundams. He's come a long way from having a simple to full blow website that can be viewed in several languages...and he's really good in making stylish shoes!

Hmmm, lotsa Macross Frontier toys...so do you guys think that Yamato will release an MF version of the VB-6 Konig Monster? I'm noticing a lot of talks about 1/100 scale toys.

Hey guys I just got my first GFF metal composite figure of the RX-78-2 with G-Armor and it looks great! Check it out!

Hey TransFan52,

Great shots! I got my RX-78-2 also a couple of weeks ago. It looks great and highly detailed. I was hoping that it could be more poseable like the 1/100 kits...but I think it's great especially with the G-Fighter.

I was planning to use the 1st 1/100 RX-78 kit to match the Zeong, but this Ka version work out pretty well.

Thanks for sharing!

I was trying to convince the guy that made the 1/48 ThunderHammer to make me a Macross... kinda getting tired of waiting for these companies to step up.

Hey EXO, that would be interesting indeed. The 1/3000 scale takatokus were neat, what do you think of a 1/2000 version? That'd be close to 23.8" or 24" in length in battle cruiser mode. Shweeet!

I usually get this also from the wifey..."what ever makes you happy, it's your money".

I just saw the finished auction, $585! Damn!

For that much, you can get a decent Iwata air brush and compressor and paint for less than $300 and make your own weathered valkyrie.

I want to be a completist too, but things come up...AND these retarded limited editions mess up the flow of collecting. I've given up.

I'd say get it and forget about getting 2 or 3 of each valkyrie...sell the extras and cover the price for these special limited ones.

Right on GhostRyder, great setup...that's the setup that I want to do with my VF-1S Hikaru and a stealth strike pack. This setup is as close as I'll ever get to a 1984 1/55 VF-1S Bandai Strike Valkyrie.

well except for that and that meteor buster?

excellent job on your 1/48 collection vegas.

BUY it! ist a good deal if you havent had a 1/48 yet.

i dunno about you guys, i will not sell and replace my 1/48's for the new 1/60 vf-1's (1/48 forever!)

ill have them all

dang, did you get the credit card black valkyrie also? i'd like to complete my 1/48 collection too but these weathered versions are messing up my plan.

Ah man, sign me up for one order of weathered 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru, please!

now i've only transformed mine 3 times to a battroid and back to a plane with all armor missles attached. the gunpod though will not stick on the arm pins. whack! ... but over all nothing is broken.

hey guys, any of you thought about putting a 1/48 F-19 as a stealth drone on top of an 1/48 F-14 model kit?

i've been thinking about it...what do you guys think?

hey wasn't the fast pacs on the vf-1s flown by hikaru on dyrl had colors closer to dark gray to black...and not bluish?

man, i remember seeing something back when i was 8 or 9...it was the 1/55 vf-1s...i was sold after seeing the artwork on the bandai box.

man it sucks...i was planning to complete my 1/48 scales too. i couldn't get a VF-1S Roy weathered valkyrie...now these two. i think i've already given up. i'll probably sell my 1/48s soon...hard to keep up the collection especially with limited ones availabe only in Japan.

i'll probably keep the VF-1S Hikaru with the stealth fast pack...just because it reminds me of the artwork on the 1984 Bandai box; closest setup i can make compared to the original 1/55.

SAVE, if you are gonna make miracles...include me too for both 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru and TV Max...long shot, but i thought i'd ask anyway.

I've only told my wife once the price of a 1/48 valkyrie with the GBP armor...and that's after she accidentally bumped one of our book case while doing laundry. The valkyrie fell and she felt really bad...so I told her the price, LOL. I think she felt bad.

Heh, ok...maybe that was a **ck move...but she says its all good, "it's your money".

I picked up mountain biking and road riding almost two years ago. And I think I've spent more on the bikes within that time than the buying of figures withing the last 8 years. It's really hard to keep up with these two current hobbies.

I'm slowing down with the Yamato stuff...and a bit disappointed too that I didn't finish my 1/48 collection with just two to go...but with the possibility of a weathered VF-1S Hikaru, my thoughts plans may change to continue with the 1/48s.

So that part-time job may not be a bad idea! Heh heh.

How tall is this 1/60 Destroid? (In inches if possible).

Yes, I'm low budget.

Yeah man, I'm interested in knowing the height too. On the left side of that pic says 19 cm, so about 7.5" inches.

For $80-$100, they better give this thing like actual working LED lights, removable pilot and poseability like the SDF series 2 Mk IV, http://www.collectiondx.com/gallery2/galle...-5/P4264898.jpg

Thanks Valk009! I'm on it!

Hi Guys,

If you got a plastic tray with the plastic lid from a 1/48 VF-1J Hikaru/Max or Miria, please let me know if you would like to give it away or sell it. I'm sure the latter will apply. I am willing to purchase the plastic tray with the plastic top cover. Send me a message if you have one laying around or an extra. Thanks a bunch!

I would say the 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru's Red Stripe version with the dark gray fast packs that took down the Zentradi's main ship in dyrl.

Do you guys know the final height of the upcoming 1/100 GFF Metal Composite Psycho Gundam Mk-II ? On the cartoon show, its said to be 40.1 meters.

The Zeong with legs is 30 meters. Standing at 1/100 scale, it tops at 14.25" inches.

So at 1/100 scale, will the new Psycho Gundam Mk-II stand at 19" inches? ... cuz that would be ***king sick!

I just found this site with some pics...it looks pretty big:

What do you guys think?

Is the VF-4 the fastest valkyrie minus the fold fast pack?

Ooh, good question...the Hikaru VF-1S with the red chest stripe. The artwork has the Strike Valkyrie in space with four Canon Fodder 1As in the background, and the bottom feet of the SDF-1. Hmm, its the 1984 artwork. Thanks Glane21.

What's sup Fellas and Ladies,

Do any of you have a high resolution photo of the front & back artwork?

Since I cannot afford to get the original Bandai 1990 version, I figured the VF-1S Hikaru and Stealth Fast Packs will suffice. But I'd like to create my own artwork for a box, and use the color schemes on the original box.

So please let me know if you guys have a shot or shots of the box/artwork.

sooooo.... VT-1 and VE-1 definitely on the works, right? right?

ah geeez, i have butterflies on my stomach.

i was first introduced to robotech before finding out macross.

yep, i mentioned robotech on this site before when i first signed up as a member, and was almost stoned to death.

so i switched to being a lurker and kept my mouth shut.

why not check out www.robotech.com ... they'll sure to have plenty of info you're looking for.
