I honestly would like to see Valkyrie Factory try a good ol' VF-1J Hikaru.  They already have Max and Millia, just a simple repaint of an existing mold for them.  We dont have a Premium Finish VF-1J Hikaru, as far as I know.  Pleave give us weird and interesting colors...my thoughts remind me of the JOON bootlegs that came in all green, orange, purple...basically, taste the rainbow!  Imagine that with Premium Finish level Tampo markings......that would be some cool stuff

I have not really heard any more about the VF-31J, but even if it is going for $160 USD, that is a significant discount, granted that it is a quality product than the official Bandai release that is going for $330-$380 USD on secondary market.

The seller is shifen187

So, I dont know if this was just a special for me, or if this seller on ebay did it for everyone, but I just got a 30% discount on a Valkyrie Factory 1/60 VF-1J Max with Fast Pack set for 87.50 plus tax with free shipping.  It was originally $125.00 USD, but with the discount......Now, I know this is a KO, but a premium finish KO that based on the review that was posted a few posts ago, it is well worth the price, as long as the quality lasts.  This might be something I get for my 11 year old, got him a V1 1/60 Yamato that the plastic crumbled apart and disintergrated and he is left with some plastic pieces that dont even form a jet....big disappointment.

I just have the movie messer/hayate VF-31F with no armor/no super and no lil draken accessories.

Never had one of the Yamato GN-U figures...the detailing though for that VF-1J seems to make up for its small size.  Thank you for clarifying that for me.

Twich

is that VF-1J Hikaru a Hi-Metal R release?  It looks variable....or am I missing something. That VF-19A does not lool variable though.

Twich

Final Fantasy VII Remake demo is out on PSN right now to download, and I thought I read that if you download the demo you get a free theme when the game releases.  Hopefully this is not the same theme you get for pre-ordering the game....would make it rather meaningless to pre-order, unless there is a giant shortage of physical copies at release.

right, that was what I was implying that the aftermarket for the PG Phenex was like $700 on sites like Gundamplanet.  I was asking if anyone knew how much it would be with all these new refinements, and what the new refinements would entail.

So, I have started playing the Witcher 3 on my switch lite, the new patch that came out was supposed to improve the graphics so much, but I am not really noticing a difference.  Yes, I know, I am playing it on the switch lite, so the graphics will not be the same as a switch in TV mode, but I think there still should have been some improvement.  Not complaining about the game, think it is awesome and love playing it on my switch and I am glad that I have the game.

Also, any word on Breathe of the Wild 2 for the switch?  Finished the first one, and have to say that was one of the better videogame experiences that I have had for a long time.  

so if I was understanding that new announcement for the celebration of the 40th anniversary of gunpla by making a super-duper Perfect Grade that uses the knowledge gained from all the years of gunpla, I wonder what it will entail and how much the price will be jacked up?  $700 PG RX-0 Phenex anyone?

Wow LEGO of SV-51 and that transforming bike Mecha from the Netflix show that I can’t remember the name of. Cool! 

Cool, thank you for looking when you can. I didn’t even know that these were out yet

twich

What can you confirm about mold changes? It looks like it has Bandai DX thigh joint, what else?

Twich

My curiosity stemmed from the supposed Uber stats of the VF-24 and how even a SV-262 would be little match for it

So here is something that I was thinking about, the NUNS fleet that we see destroyed by the knights of Windermere that were coming to use dimensional weapons on Windermere. What was the origin of that fleet? Was it the local Brisingr cluster fleet or one from earth? If from earth, wouldn’t they have the infamous VF-24?

Twich

so has it been sufficiently explained how orks can turn 2 bolts, a piece of jagged metal and some chewing gum and making it into a functioning nuclear reactor that powers their kroozers other than the orks psychic gestalt just making it so?  I always found this answer to be rather lacking.  I believe all the time that a semi truck will deliver every macross variable fighter toy, in triplicate to my house for me to enjoy and share with my family, but that truck still hasnt shown up in my driveway.  Maybe I need more chewing gum?

Twich

what might be cool to see is the VF-0C for the UN Marines in marine camo pattern, really maximize the mold use.  With the cost of the premium finish figures, I could never get one anyway, unless I win the lotto tomorrow or something.

Twich

It also looks like that airbrake might articulate, based on one of those pictures....or is that just really dark panel lining....hard to tell, but if they are trying to make it like a 1/72 scale DX toy, this might be an easy addition to the mold for them.

Twich

These improvements are great! These will be available in May? I wonder if MSRP will be effected?

Twich

Any word on a reissue VF-1J Hikaru without the stand and the almost $500 price tag for aftermarket?  Also, since they have the mold, I would expect that a Max/Milia set are going to be coming about, which interests me, since they are all of a single color (for the most part) and white.  I know the Max VF-1A comes close, but interested to see how it would fly with the M&M versions.  Also, these seem to be packaged with the Fast Pack sets......makes one wonder.

Twich

Yes, new updates without a significant increase in price will garner more business for them. Wonder if we will see a flood of factory seconds bootlegs due to the large quantity that didn’t meet QC

Twich

What I would like to see, and correct me if I am wrong and this is already produced by Arcadia, but I would like to see a 1/60 VF-1J Hikaru Vermillion Leader release in regular or perhaps Premium Finish.  I was not able to find if they have released this already.  But, I would like to see this made by Arcadia.

Twich

Well, Since I just got the 35th Anniversary edition 1/60 VF-1J, I would be interested to see what they come up with for the 40th Anniversary 1/60 VF-1J!

Twich

Read most of the books, not collections of short stories and have played a little of the games.  I have enjoyed the series and how well Henry Cavill played Geralt.  The only bit that surprised me was the hint that Geralts' mother was a sorceress and that she gave him up to the witchers on purpose.  As far as any story that I have read or lore in the video game, this has never been touched on, so I think that it was pretty cool.  Cannot wait until season 2 shows up to watch the continued journey of Geralt and company.
