    The PF looks nice. However, meh. It should've been standard and not be an additional 5500y webshop/japanese-only exclusive. Arcadia opting for exclusives-profits instead of volume-profits is always a rather bizarre business-decision to me with their already pricey toys. Oh, well.

    The Arcadia VF-4G was at 29,700y msrp: http://arcadia.ac/products/detail.php?product_id=228 Thanks! Wasn't posted when I checked earlier. As usual, Ami's always adding the Tokyo-Tax with their 31,100y pricing for us importers.

    so, to recap so far for the non-PF version: hlj is at 29,800y (which is msrp, i think) (shipping unknown) ae is at 28,310y (shipping unknown) amj is at 28,343y (as of this posting) (shipping is dhl 3211y placeholder (usually 1600y) ) ami == ? 31,100y (shipping unknown) hs == ? cdj == ?

    errr, it's still available. you might want to clear your browser-cache or something.

    Yup! Easiest customization ever!

    It is pricey, unfortunately. However, the current listing on amjp is still msrp. Hopefully Amazon-jp will apply their usual discounts soon. That said with this non-PF msrp, I reckon Arcadia will be pricing their inevitable PF-version around the 12k-yen more and possibly even above.

    Nice pics. You might have missed it, but I posted my black-heatshield Hikaru-1S back on June-14 both here and in the scale-thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/45206-bandai-dx-chogokin-148-vf-1/?do=findComment&comment=1528549 http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/35121-148fps-160fps-172-12k-13k1100-and-now-1144/?do=findComment&comment=1528550

    Flashback 2012 VF-4A at amjp: https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B08DS56FMS/ looks like the non-PF version. ineligible to cancel after 8/23 jp-time. arcadia's competing with the DX-SOC Voltes V release, oh boy...

    Perhaps just plain Bandai arrogance and possibly plain disdain for non-battroid modes , then.

    It may be that Yamato-Toys/Arcadia holds the patent(s) on the designs and mechanisms/methods. Bandai does not want to pay for 'em and just decide to simply Bandai'd themselves and us...

    so any Japan Post updates regarding EMS-to-US, yet?
  12. treatment
    Yeah. Iirc, the original MZ-23 OVA was really the first anime that started the distinction between OVA and regular TV series among anime in terms of content...

    Blue text means jack crap here. Different forum, different traditions.

    They'll call it DX-R, with the innovation/fixes being just white landing gears and a 15k-yen bump on the msrp...

    You never know. Kevin and the other former vendors might just encourage them to restart their old Valk distro-business given the various shenanigans that N-Y, NinNin, or whoever has been griefing everybody else here about the 1/48 DX and parts...

    Better discussion points than N-Y in this thread...

    ever tried this on your Yammie-SV51?
  19. treatment
    Yeah. Kevin/Valk-Exchange was awesome. Think most of us got our valks from him instead of HLJ. lol! Think he's still around and just lurk or something.

    It was the Yammie 0A who had the self-disintegration issue. At least, the whole shoulders and arms, iirc. In contrast, the Yammie YF-19 had a rather challenging bicep-transformation, but it was not really a self-disintegrating part like the Yammie-0A.
  21. treatment
    Dunno if lucky nor not. Anecdotally, all my yammie 1/60v2s were first-releases, and none of them have shoulder-cracks to this day and I ain't delicate with any of them. Yet various people here have reported and shown pictures of their yammies with cracked shoulders during those cracked-shoulder times. Oh yeah. Forgot about those. The 0A from Yamato, 0A from Arcadia, and the CF-171 from Bandai were notorious disintegrating Macross toys.

    I think we had to re-sign and re-establish ourselves after the software migration in '03.

    Iirc, some of the old Banpresto VF-1's were crumbling to pieces after being taken out of the box. Prior to Banpresto, I had an old cheap VF-1's from HK back in the 80's that just disintegrated after it got rained on. More recently, Takara's MP-47 Hound was pretty much breaking and crumbling to pieces on its own...

    hmmm. nice poses! lemme try your poses with my yammie hikkie-1S,,. fwiw, I don't really appreciate the DX's feature of disconnecting the t-bar to do swiveling. i'm already annoyed that it disconnects itself easily on its own on my DXs, anyway! At any rate, I still stand by my original assertion that the only advantage of the DX against the 1/60v2 to me is that the DX is just bigger. None of its newer features really tops the old 1/60v2 to me. Don't get me wrong, tho. I like the DX in battroid-mode. I own all three so far released and the FP for the Hikkie. Except the missiles, which I've consciously boycotted since I don't appreciate Bandai's nickel-n-dime strategy with it. That said, think I'm done with the DX after Roy-TV. Not really interested in Kaki or any of the remaining ones. However, I might consider getting the Max-1S if Bandai ever makes it... add/edit: Really ain't that sure about your last shot's inspiration at all, so i'm just gonna dig up an old snapshot I posted here back in 2011 as inspired by the actual DYRL scene... http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/30854-strike-a-pose-v4-the-macross-mech-pose-thread/page/18/?tab=comments#comment-898210 btw, that old 1100y yammie-stand is really still more awesome than the stand that Bandai includes with their DXs...
