Saw a YF-19 from a private collector on Amazon for 205.99 shipped. Took one look at the pics he sent me and snapped it up instantly Never thought my 1/60 YF-21 would have its archrival in the display case

Easiest way to make the head movable is to just pin it with a pin-vise and paperclip. The paperclip will give it enough stability to stay on so you can turn it
-
They haven't changed at all. The supers are an absolute mess. The regulars take a little TLC to get them to not have such huge gaps in fighter. However, the tornado and Armored releases are top-notch complete with locking mechanisms for a tight fighter mode. Still, if you can get the bare valks for cheap I'd say get them. Even without painting and a little panel-lining they can go a long way.

This is weird, but after looking at all three of my 171 EXes I noticed something. THe plastic on the shoulders, the head and the nose is a slightly different white than the off-white used on the wings, backpanel, etc. THis is driving me nuts, I can't unsee it now

CF VF-25A's are Brown

How many Japanese toys are manufactured today in Japan? very little if any. It's all manufactured in China now so the perception that Japan-bound toys are better is out of date. I mean, If Japan-bound toys supposedly had better QC how could Aoshima let the Legioss remakes turn out oh so badly O_O

All these numbers don't seem to be that much imho. Back in 1999-2001-ish we wouldn't flinch when MIB 1/55's would go for 1000-1500 USD easy Yamato made Macross collecting waaaay cheaper. God... I feel old now.. I still remember when Macross world had a chatroom :0

Oh God. Not more miniatures, my closet is full of unpainted miniatures O_o

HOLY CRAP. I have two of then and I've never seen this white skull on White (maybe that's a testament to bandai's fail) Where is this white skull? (I'm at work I can't check them right now lol)
-
Just curious where did this happen?
-
The VF-22's and 1/48's don't get enough love these days
-
If they release a CF VF-25 my bank account is over I have a soft spot for CF valks >_< In the meantime having fun with my custom 25F Just have to source another pair of alto armor parts now for the altos I reserved from Otacute and NY
-
That first image is not a YF-30, that's a fictional plane from Ace-combat. Think it's the CFA-44 Nosferatu
-
That screeny i took is from ep 14, when the vf-171's unload on the capships. Upon further inspection, the reaction missiles are as long as their shins , which is already larger than the sms reaction missiles from the armored 25 sets. It is hard, however, to tell the girth from the limited screen time
-
Machida is Angry and wishes to punch Bandai for oversized reaction weapons and wrongly-colored armored parts
-
Who knows. Maybe the reaction missiles carried by the 171's were bigger. Maybe SMS uses a smaller version of the missile *EDIT* SCratch that, just looked online and those reactions warheads are def too big O_o
-
Armored parts haven't really jumped that much in price since the ALTO announcement. Usually you were looking at around 150-160 shipped. Now they're around 170-180 shipped. Picked up my 2nd alto armored set since I customized the 1st one :0 While I won't say never, I have yet to see any Tamashii web-exclusives be re-issued. They didn't do it for the Alto YF-29, doubt they will for the armored parts. Other non-macrossTamashii web-exclusives are rarely re-issued, if ever.

The hardpoint wings actually fit super well and are really tight. No way those MDEs would bend the wings unless they're made of pure lead or something.
-
My bluray player says 1 hr 54 min ish I uploaded some more screenies
-
AT around 1:14 of 2nd Movie. I just took a screeny for your reference. DAmnit these packs better be GREY Looks like they're equipped on stations 1,3,4,6 and are pretty long
-
since those who purchase are gonna have spare underwing stores, wish we could slap them onto our renewal 25's :0
-
Just get an airbrush and paint it grey ;p My little Iwata airbrush is ready Just kinda blagh that I have to do this 6x since I got 6 CF's in the pipe O_o
-
They've got like 47 VF-25's left as of right now. Just put like 100 in the cart and it'll automatically adjust to how much stock the have.
-
the 11% markup is prolly because NY is purchasing it from Bandai's webstore at retail I assume. Would not be worth their time if they stocked these and sold for no profit
