I'm sure they're awake already.

Looking at the G in fighter mode makes me want it. Solely because of the sniper

Any news on the new series or when we're going to get anything announced? I'm excited for new Valks

Which company did you order your custom from? This is reminding me to go sell my guitars as I don't touch them much anymore.

I'm still surprised at the amount of copies that CDJapan carries.

I completely forgot that the Monster had a Battroid mode.

This board is so going down when the VF-25S is about to release for PO (asuming that it does).

All these people getting one is making me want one :X

And I was right! Someone here did get it Post up some pictures when you're customizing it. Curious to see what people do to their Valks. Definitely a great price but I'll stick to hunting down more YF-29 30th Anniversary Schemes. Black and White is more to my taste than Red and White.

Hopefully Bandai does another reissue like the previous YF-29. The only thing is that the VF-25 renewals is about due for its reissues so Ozma is probably going to get pushed back for a while. Also not forgetting the new Macross series coming out. Assuming that Bandai is dipping their hands into the Macross series they'll definitely go ahead with the new series toys. All of your concerns make me never want to transform my Ozma after putting it into Battroid mode anymore :X

I'm just annoyed by the fact that alot of the items went to scalpers... I went around asking local hobby stores and only 1 store has them. I'm paying about $200 for the thing so I guess its kinda okay as Im not in the states right now and have to pay import tax so the mark up makes up for it. Technically the thing is still under PO status as it comes in at the end of the month or so. I asked if they had 2 and even the guy was saying the stock is damn low and he'll see if he can get his hands on another. Talked to another store owner and even he was saying supply on these are damn uncertain. At the end his supplier cut him off so he didn't get any (or else I would've had one by now).

My 2 cents is that I think actual online stores shouldn't sell anything at a marked up price unless its a site that sells "collectibles" and whatnot. Just keep it simple like HLJ/ Amiami/ etc... Back on topic: Feels like theres so many Macross stuff coming out lately :X My wallet is too dry to do anything

I love my Valks in GERWALK too btw can someone point me to the thread for the previous release of this? Want to read up on it.

I would agree only up to a deposit (25% total price absolute max). Allocated stock is also easily sold to other customers as we're talking about toys here. Its a luxury item that no one NEEDS but want. Unless its something that really has no demand.

If I bought the Alto I'd most likely have left it in Fighter mode anyway so I guess thats the biggest factor for me saying no. Normally I would be imagining the product that I've missed out on and regretting it but the Alto really isn't up there for me in terms of the priority list of buys.

If you're saying tough as in rarity then no. Theres plenty of them out there but its all being sold by scalpers... Price is damn ridiculous.

Just skipped out on an auction for a used Alto YF-29 with lose joints for $200. Too much money spent recently :X Normally I would be regretting this decision to not get it but not so much this time. I'll get the figure one day but since its not on my priority list I'll save it for a later date. Somehow have the feeling that this one went to a sneaky board member here. I expected the last bid to go up much more but only went up by 50 cents lol EDIT: Still trying very hard to tell myself that skipping this was fine (gotta have limits!) $200 is kinda cheap on this but I guess since I snagged a YF-29 Focker scheme for a $100 I'm kinda underwhelmed by this.

I ended up ordering more than 1 order because I changed my mind and because I paid with PAYPAL I can't combine my orders. Also wanted to make it EMS to be more safe :X

Reading all this is making me worry about my Registered SAL shipping for my YF-30 again :X ARGH PAYPAL!

As someone who has never seen the original series and finds it abit too old to hold my attention (same problem as many new Gundam viewers) that would be great. Kinda like the whole Gundam Origin deal (Macross Origin although technically Gundam Origin covers more than the original series)

You phrased this way better than I probably ever could have +1

My one wish as someone who likes the Frontier stuff more than the older Valks is cheaper products. I can't justify paying $300 for a YF-19 over a YF-29 Alto/ 30th or VF-25S (I wish :X)

UWAAGH, I found a local seller that has all the DX Macross stuff instock (+ every armor part) but he kinda follows the aftermarket price. bummer.

Question. Is the series or movie version of Frontier considered cannon? Just popped into my head that if the new series followed the movie (asuming that its a sequel without a huge time skip again) then Isamu is still around

Theres a VF-25A for $150 and its really tempting me :X no moneys though after all those YF-30s
