There is a better version colour scheme out there.

This picture has showed up alot in this thread haha

:X Me wants but that blue strip is annoying me abit.

The White/Black/Purple is really intriguing but I feel that people are going to flip that all they did was change the stripe colors :X Next variant will definitely be the Grey/Black/*wtv* or the Red one

Do you guys think I should smack all 3 orders into 1 shipment using EMS? :X

I kinda do want one but I cant shake off the feeling that it won't be that hard to find after release anyway.

EDIT: Ah crap. So they do have a difference in Credit/ Debit payments. Dammit...

EDIT 2: Do you guys think it'll be possible to cancel all 3 of my orders (its separate) and let them combine it into 1 shipment? Kinda thinking about using EMS instead of Registered SAL

Wait wtf. I thought that CDJapan only takes your money when it ships. Wtf is this.

Doubt that Bandai is going to touch the VF-27 again.

Would definitely like to see the purple stripe in toy form though

I think there are only two variants, a black and purple one and another one that is a lot more red.

Third post down for pics:

Thanks.

Think I made the right choice to go with the original (assuming that they will follow the games variants). Purple looks interesting but that red one is too much (reminds me of lucifer)

If they make variants based on the game, I am all for the Skywarp color scheme.

So what variants do they have in the game? Never played it

I hope they do repaints, I usually squad build but would hate to do that with a bunch of the same schemes unless they are CF schemes. I wish they had variants on the YF-30, like D/A/J/S or A/F/S/G/RVF??.

Hmm, what colors do you think would work. I personally like the current one alot and would like to see the red replaced with yellow.

HKC and NY always mark as gift and declared less. Boy.. im I in trouble

Thanks for the insight

HKC has the option to mark the thing as a gift (they know asian countries have bs import fees so they're trying to help). The did however declare my stuff for a lower value (about half of what I paid).

Just try to remember how much the Alto YF-29 costs in comparison to the rest of the repaints. The original may be something worth getting.

Will definitely need alot of people for this to go through (hopefully it does one day)

First release of YF-21 with Fast Pack and Stand. (Big stripe box - 2008?) Let me know if you've seen one.

Have to ask, where is this again?

In Thailand right now

I THINK I'll go sometime within this week so I'll make sure to bring a list with me. The usual building that with the hobby stores is being renovated so some stores have moved around (hopefully temporarily). Hopefully I'll find something interesting From what I've noticed the Macross stuff is more tucked away so it'll be a fun hunt for them.

Two copies left on CDJapan!

I did it... I did it... 3 YF-30s.

Should've done that in the first place. Now I have 3 separate orders in Registered SAL....... (EMS would be 30 bucks more if all 3 were in a single shipment)

Too bad I used Paypal so I can't do anything about the first two order. Used a Card in the last one JUST in case I want to cancel it :X

I finally opened mine tonight and I have to say that I love this piece.

I was a big naysayer but it's really pretty out of the box, even without decals.

I might buy another since it's on sale.

You should get a few customized Valks and what not to recreate the Carnival episode from Macross 7. That was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thing

I can see myself adding another one into the cart already.......... ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!

If anyones looking for anything from Yamato/ Arcadia just tell me and I'll be sure to keep an eye out. I have the feeling that the Yamato stuff here isn't too hot so there may be stuff left here and there (but then again I could be dead wrong).

I am so damn tempted to get a third one >.< Macross is driving me insane

Grab anything from Yamato with the 30th anniversary sticker on the top corner of the box and thats Yamato and not Arcadia.

And I would also grab a YF-29 Alto (the red and white one) if you can find one but it might cost you an arm and a leg.

Off the top of my head I don't remember seeing anything with the sticker. But then again I wasn't exactly looking for it

The Alto is listed at one of the stores (was there, didn't see it) but its roughly $400. Easy pass (I'd go for the Roy scheme YF-29 first)

There's only three Aracdia VF-1's right now. The 30th Anniversary and the two Roy and Hikaru 1S'es. The 30th Anniversary is an acquired taste, both of the 1S'es are just fine.

He's right, spanner, you haven't properly transformed the 19's. The hips should fold upward on a swing bar.

Think I saw 2 of the 3. Didn't see the Hikaru one. Still quite pricey if I remember correctly.

And grab the GE-61 VF-27y if you don't have one.

Eventually, those don't seem to be running outta stock anytime soon

Kinda the wrong thread but I was wondering if there is anything from Yamato/ Arcadia that is worth looking out for. I'm going to be walking around the hobby stores browsing for anything noteworthy as I've seen quite a few but I have no clue what is what. I'm only accustomed to the Bandai Valks so it would be cool to get some info on things I'm missing out on

(A side note on how much each thing is worth would be cool too )

EDIT: Ooops double post

...

Yeah the price will drop on this one after release.

Yay for cheap(er) Valks

Out of curiosity, do you know how much the Lucifers were going for?

Around $220 I guess. Could always bargain for a slightly lower price (Best to buy things from one store and they'll remember you = more discount)
