Mr Bomber

This is my current 1/60 macross collection on display. All my stuff its still boxed.

Both the VF-1A and the YF-19 came from Hiriyu, thanks a lot bro.

There was a message from ebay waiting for me this morning, they have pulled the listing, here is hoping that it still comes through! I guess someone has pointed ot out as a potential KO

Same here Garf

thought I'd also post this up here..

I put my little Minmay back on display!

cool display spanner!

looking at my 30's I think having the logo flipped on one side kinda works actually! Seeing they are always visible regardless of what ever mode you're in then they are easily readable.. or at least that's the way I see it..

yeah i figured that too spanner.

So I e-mailed HLJ regarding the YF-29 the other day and here's what they replied back:

Dear #$@!%,

Thank you for writing.

Unfortunately, the DX Chogokin YF-29 Durandal Valkyrie Alto Saotome Custom arrived short. We allocated the stock strictly by chronological order, but the stock ran out before reaching your order. We are afraid we cannot expect it to become available unless other customers cancels their orders.

We are not canceling your order for now just in case other customers cancel their orders. If you would not like to wait any longer, please feel free to cancel your orders.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but your understanding is appreciated.

Thank you for shopping with HobbyLink Japan!

Best Regards,

Kunihiko Matsugu

Apparently there's a shortage of the YF-29 and I won't be getting one unless someone cancels their order. I was part of the May pre-order batch. Oh well. Saves me $145 right there! And the celebrity Owen Wilson did not e-mail me back! I got Kunihiko Matsugu.

crap, im also a late orderer :S mine is on april 23rd

and i am still waiting for mine to arrive :/

BTW VF-1A available for preorder on hlj

http://hlj.com/product/BANN06245

any news about shipping date on hlj? my order is still waiting to be fullfilled.

At this point, $250 to $300 for the VF-25 armor parts is probably the lowest you'll find

Or build a time machine and travel back to the distant past of 2012.

Hey lolicon, you remember tha price at launch for the vf 25s and the armored parts prie?

I have to admit, that KO version is mighty impressive for a TF toy! impressive enough to consider buying one?? hmmm.. that im not so sure of though..

damn anubis, it looks awesome im really considering get one now,why you do this to me? XD

Stupid and sexy super VF-1S i want one now!

Great, I'll keep an eye open. My vf-0s is feeling lonely on his shelf...

lol i was kinda lucky when i got it. I ordered and paid for a VF-1 annyversario, but by a warehouse mistake my order couldnt be fullfilled, so hlj as an apology gave a me a 20% discount code, so i cancelled all my preorders and ordered everything i could under that code. that valk cost me around 23k i think before shipping at realease.

Let's hope so... For 20k yens or less, I might consider getting one.

i think it was around 21-23k last time, not really sure, but its near of what you want to pay.

I would love a VF-0A... I'm hoping for the next HLJ sale.

It was on sale a while ago, had a substantial discount. Most likely gonna get lowered even further next time.

OMG I am planning a shopping schedule D:

lol macross valks got you, now there is no escape.

The last reissue was the YF-29 alto, which you can get here

between the deltas and Hi metals i dont see any reissue soon.

Killer deal for the YF-19. If I hadn't just payed for the re-issue at HLJ I would've swooped on it. Good luck with your sale

exactly my case bro ; ;

This one arrived today

this one i had on box, decided to put on display

The other problem will be if you start getting a few more then you'll want to complete the collection and buy the lot!

Thats true, that happened to me, my wallet can prove it!

i was hesitant in getting the reactive armor, but it looks real cool, gonna get it for my 0A

i say let make a joint lawsuit to bandai for this tampos and get rich(or get all valks) in the process XD lol

If you mean the -31, then I completely agree. The -262 looks lovely for what it is, but I've never cared for the Saab 35 design, so it's personal bias. I didn't get a copy of the YF-30, so I'm definitely down for at least one of these, preferably the F. (love those colors and the back art). I just hope the final DX has slightly wider forearms with a slight taper to the wrist, per the lineart we've seen. The 2x4 arms on the model just detract from an otherwise nice looking battroid. Anyway, I hope the forearms are fixed, and I can snag an F and an E model.

yup i meant the 31!

im a victim too on my YF-30.

but it should have being spotted earlier, the tampo mistake its even on the box art!!

Both the SV-262 and the VF-31 displayed at the Akiba Showroom, Check out the "Macross figures" thread in a while as I will post better pics of the Freya figure:

fighter mode is so cool

One more for future reference:

STAGE ACT Macross Display base image 00.jpg

that stand on blue look look amazing, the contrast with the white of the valks looks great

One hand I agree that at this price, perceived value goes up if more accessories, like a stand are included.

But seeing how things are it's more likely that the price would have been more if a stand or anything else were included.

I'm okay with the price, not thrilled, but not bothered - very middle of the road, or almost ambivalent really.

-b.

i think its kinda pricy, but as you said more accesories make it feel that it isnt. Anyway i dont like money, and i like macross stuff, so its a natural preoder! XD

hmmm ill have to check mine.
