HObby-fan has been pretty good for me in the past. One time a garage kit I pre-ordered was delayed a year and they called me after I'd forgotten about it and told me my CC expired lol. Crossing my fingers because..well.. it's Bandai lol
-
It's a long-shot, but I just pre-ordered a few off of Hobbyfan.com. I doubt they'll pull through but if they do I'll be pleasantly surprised.
-
I don't know why they just don't also offer the valks at retail on the tamashii web site like they do for the super packs and whatnot. It would eliminate all the risk of overproduction and they'd make more money. But who knows......
-
Please please PLEASE be a freaking tamashii web special. srsly they should do that with all their valks
-
It's their show and they can do what they want. Japanese macross demand is nowhere near where we think it is, despite what hardcore macross fans may feel. Goto akiba and see for yourself. Japanese stores stock what sells and you're hard pressed to find dedicated macross sections let alone loads of Bandai and Yamato valks. Only a handful of shops even had shelf space of just macross when I was there. Heck, somebody who went to Akiba recently was finding VF-171 exes for half retail! Sure, you could say Bandai should think of the export market, but how can they when HG has "Macross" trademarked anywhere outside of Japan?
-
I would but... well.. you see a pattern here with the collection. I aim to have 2 of each. I'm no Master of Macross who gets at least 3 though

I could care less if I end up paying 180 US for it on NY-san tomorrow morning. Beats having to drive myself nuts over this
-
Couldn't resist. Had to put mine in Gerwalk too :0
-
Love the Gerwalk pics. Don't know what it is but the YF-29 looks best in gerwalk for me Can't wait for the fast-packs to come out
-
I highly doubt the mold was for a kit. Why would it be in the same scale as the yf-29,and why would it have been displayed with the yf-29 chogokins?
-
Finally got some Gundam stands for my 1/72 valks I Don't care what anyone says. The 1/48 with Stealth Strike packs is still boss. Also, that 1/72 super 25S? It only looks solid because I freaking glued it together in fighter mode Thing is a floppy nightmare otherwise
-
Yup. The Detolf cases which are 65 a pop. Really cheap for decent, modern looking curio cases. It was just a pain getting them upstairs by myself. The glass is heavier than you'd expect lol.

The man-cave is slowly taking shape

If Muv-Luv wins where's Muv-Luv World? Yeah. that's what I thought. Let's get back on topic and talk about Valkyries... please!!!!
-
If Arcadia makes this I will be a super happy camper it looks like a plane. Please move the muv-luv convo to anime-scifi

Bandai 1/72 Mac Frontier VF-25F Alto armored - newbie help
Duymon replied to Kaldar5's topic in Model kits
Highly Doubt it. There have been no new 1/72 releases since the limited 25G Tornado set. After that Bandai sorta went the way of the Renewals and there have been no new 1/72 mac frontier releases or announcements. You could say the line is pretty much dead in terms of new releases. -
I can't stand Muvluv. The mecha-designs are so ugly to me.

My armored ozma would be angry at my super ozzie if he stole his thigh armor

When I was in Japan back in Winter 2003 as an exchange student I went super scrooge on food, only eating about 400 yen worth of food a day (3 instant curries and instant rice 3-pack) just so that I could buy a Japanese PS2 and the New Macross Game, which totally rocked (got a huge laugh out of choosing Kakizaki for the DYRL mission where he dies) Already prepaid my LE, just need to get a PS3 now :0
-
The Super pack thighs pop off so much it makes me want to punch a kitten. Oh why couldn't they have had the same mounting point as the armored pack?

Bandai 1/72 Mac Frontier VF-25F Alto armored - newbie help
Duymon replied to Kaldar5's topic in Model kits
The Bandai 1/72 Armored units also come with a stand and have nice locking mechanics that keep the fighter mode tight, which is why I'd recommend them to anyone
