Fwiw, going by the anime... The GBP-1S did not have any UNSpacy Kite in both TV and DYRL: Only in the TV series did the reversed-Kite appeared on the Tomahawk: But at the same episode, in contrast, the blue Phalanx sported the regular UNS Kite: Afaik, none of the other destroids in both of the anime sported the kite at all.
-
hmm. Sounds like later fan-fiction to justify some of the earlier box-arts like whoever did Nichimo's. I mean, the Nichimo Armored-Roy and Armored-Max VF1 are not really quite official mechs in both TV and DYRL...
-
The one thing to note is that it seems all of Mandarake shops only offer DHL shipping nowadays. At least for US-destinations. In addition to the exhorbitant DHL shipping-fees nowadays, you may also still get hit with the additional T-Virus fees separately.
-
Now I'm interested where you got that information. Is that "Ariel unit" "ground units" etc in the official mook or something? The original line-art and anime (tv/dyrl) didn't even have the kite at all.
-
It's a nice Armored-Valk review. Bandai using the Nichimo box-artwork coloring for their reversed-color UNSpacy Kite-symbol on both their Hikaru-GBP and Roy-GBP armors still kinda bugs me a bit. At least they'd provided the Grey-Visor 1J-head as an extra with the Hikaru-GBP sets...

Get the DX VF-1S Roy Focker Revival. It'll be the way better pick than both the VF-19 and the VF-31J.
-
6000y msrp increase and a bunch of clown-hands that should've been included in the original release due to Bandai's patented exploitative- forward-thinking/tactics. A similar special stand may or may not be included. Bandai may get to be generous and may include the special-stand in a plastic-baggy with tv-missiles ala DX VF-1J Store-LE: But Bandai gotta be Bandai, so don't get your hopes up...

Anybody still want to import DX VF-19 Fire Valk as new and not pre-owned/used? Ami's still got one or so on their Sales page at 21,780y before shipping (as of this posting-time, at least) : https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-185514 Ami's got a slow-response thing going on these days, tho...

Arcadia's website have been region-blocked since last year or so. You may need to use a vpn or something to get to it. Alternatively, maybe one of our japan-based members can proxy for you to at least download the form or give you more info about it since they can access the Arcadia-site just fine. Good luck!

Would've been vastly preferrable for Bandai to have just opted to sell a standalone HMR Ghost that includes the add-ons for the VF-0. Like, say, what the old Yamato did back in the day for the 1/60 Ghost 2200D-A/B. Even better, innovate and include the HMR Reactive Armour alongside with the Ghost as one superb accessory pack! Would make just... so... much... sense! Instead of forcing people to re-buy the same 0S. But Bandai gotta Bandai...

Heppoko just tweeted his HMR VF-0S "v1.0+" pics... thumbnailed samples (full res at his actual twitter-links): https://twitter.com/simsim5479/status/2017503216150434053 web-translated: https://twitter.com/simsim5479/status/2017499720181293156 web-translated:

Yikes! That is quite tragic. I feel for you. I can only suggest that you try contacting Arcadia directly or even Mr.K via twitter-dm or something about that breakage. Maybe they still have some spare parts they can send to you. If they're somehow able to help you out, make sure you got a Tenso address or something for them to send the part to. Good luck!

some comments from the twitter-verse on the DX-Roy Rev announcement: https://twitter.com/barhara/status/2015625777337991524 web-translated: 🤣

Bandai gave the impression that they were kinda following the HMR VOTOMS release-cycle via the tv/ova arcs sequence: Uoodo arc: RSC Last Red Shoulder ova: TC and Bloodsucker Kumen arc: Marshy, Berserga, Beetle Then, after some big delay bordering on line-cancellation, they released TC and Bloodsucker but went on and upended the scheduling by following it up with the Space Dog and Space Fatty instead, which was in the Space Arc following Kumen. Furthermore, they've only recently revealed the Brutishdog alongside the Regular and Melquiya Dogs, which are in the Uoodo arc. The Round-Mover being in a separate accessory pack now. Conspicously still missing are the Snapping Turtle and the Snapping Tortoise reveals (Kumen arcs). So Bandai just gonna keep on Bandai'ing... I had also posted these here and the HMR thread back in the day: https://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/38846-votoms/page/58/#findComment-1555672

I will be very wary of that from Bandai and their DX Macross line. Think the last time Bandai actually did something new and showed quite some "effort" for their DX Macross line was with their DX YF-21... 🤣

https://twitter.com/simsim5479/status/2015784922867523850 web-translated: Maybe Bandai should've just made more Armored-Roy available instead. But that will make way too much logical sense for Bandai 🤡, tho... 🥱
-
Depends on your personal thresholds. I say just get both to satisfy your urges. I do highly suggest to try to get the DX-21 at or below US$200 shipped, tho. The Yammie-21 is ancient, so you're at the mercy of scalpers for pricing...
-
Errr, those reddit-community folks must be very very new to this DX Roy since Bandai flooded the market with the original DX Roy back in the day at quite reasonable pricing from both jp retail shops and jp auction-sites. Most of us here got it at below-MSRP preorder-pricing, of course. In multiples, even! With 3k-yen to 5k-yen shipping-fees!!! and no tariffs-virus whatsoever. I reckon DX Roy was the most plentiful and the most readily available in retail for weeks to be had among the DX VF-1 releases. I believe only the TV FAST-Pack had more purchasing drama since it was TWE or something.

fyi. not sure if US-only, but playstation-store sale ongoing until Feb-4, 2026: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/category/cb82efd7-ada8-4dcb-8bbc-360562740689/1 For example, they got AC7 Maverick Ultimate Edition for $20, too, for those that still dont have any AC7... As for me, finally got my Mechwarrior5:Clans, MW5-Clans:Tukayyid, and MW5-Mercs:SofKerensky for more acceptable pricing! yay!- 7084 replies

Bandai just being lazy per usual and just re-used their original PR shot: https://tamashiiweb.com/item/13309/?wovn=en Bandai just luvs never going the extra mile!
-
shhh! You're not supposed to have noticed that! It's just for Bandai's Ass-ymetry policy. 😝 ... They really luvs their photoshopping-staff,,, 🤡

Theoretically, they could do that. It'll be way too easy. But Bandai being Bandai, they still gonna Bandai harder...

Macross DYRL in 4K UHD with English Subtitles
treatment replied to GGemini's topic in Movies and TV Series
Iirc, LG and Pioneer did announced manufacturing-stop last year. Still should have some lingering inventory-stock among tech-retail shops. I see at least one of the specific models for modding still listed on Amzn. Good luck!
