Kitz Concept. And theirs are 1/12 which is the most popular scale for action figures these days.
-
Proper scale to what? We have two good Minmei figures from KC.
-
AE now offers pay later option on preorders. I don’t think it will apply to TWE and not sure about Arcadia exclusives.
-
Yeah, I just might need both of those even though I don’t prefer collecting statues. As @borgified knows, if they do Sivil it will be instabought!
-
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Thanks! That makes it easy. Although the price for a 1/64 car is quite steep. I do love everything else about it though. Hmmmm. -
I’m unaware of any limit and if anything, it makes more sense to send larger/more expensive items through Ferry than SAL because very small packages end up more expensive through ferry. I’ve had huge boxes filled with multiple Valks and other expensive items, no problem. They do have a limit on insurance but insurance has never concerned me. Gotcha. I was merely pointing out HLJ had the option now too.
-
I don't know other then my PF 0D, PF SDF-1 and a bunch of other items that cost around the same or more have all been shipped by ferry.
-
HLJ has ferry shipping now too...

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

That's fantastic! Now I gotta look into this. -
That’s what I was thinking because I’d definitely try to get one if it was guaranteed to be fixed... ...but this is most likely the case considering there was some 0A stock HLJ had fairly recently that was the same crapshoot as before.
-
This. Need that 19 Kai Full Set.
-
So true!
-
Thanks for the tip. I have tons of mechanical pencils as I used to collect those when I was in school. Jeez, thinking about it, I probably have at least a few large shipping boxes worth of pens and pencils too. Insanity!
-
Yeah, it all depends. It’s never worth even an extra $10 to me. That adds up quick when you buy a lot of things from Japan. If I was paying an extra $98 per shipment, that could equal dozens of extra Valks I could have each year instead.
-
That’s what I was thinking too. Regular and PF both look good and especially compared to the 4G. the YF-19 regular is fine to me too but I plan to display with the DX and there is a pretty big difference, especially the Arcadia fighter mode is very plain and I’d probably prefer it in that mode.
-
Ok thanks! If anything, you may have inspired me to try panel lining some of my Valks with a mechanical pencil. I probably still won’t but if so, any special lead type/size recommendations? I’m definitely convinced I don’t need the PF VF-4A so there would have to be a pretty incredible deal for me to get it. Then I just gotta see how tempting the PF YF-19 is. Probably pass on that too although I kinda like the idea of it displayed with the DX.
-
@Lolicon @tekering haha, I see how my post was misunderstood. I was asking about the regular version in the comparison photo. Was anything other than panel lining added to that regular release one in the picture? Or, did you add any decals to the regular version in the comparison photo?
-
Is there anything besides the panel lining added to the regular? Both look good to me and I was almost considering a PF too but that might have just convinced me I totally don’t need it.
-
Much more accurate to reality. Thanks!
-
Thank goodness a release I can skip. My Arcadia YF-19 is all good still. They need to reissue the VF-19 Kai Full Set because I need me one o those !
-
Don’t care about all the little details of what’s different. If they make it, I will buy. Will be nice to have a few more actual Delta wing Valks from Delta.
-
Yep, what @sh9000 said. Also worth noting that the new hair is only compatible with the new faces. So you need to use the faces that come with the new figure on the old figure to use it.
-
Congrats! Those are two of the top 10 (maybe even 5) Macross pieces ever made imo.
-
Yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised if KC made a figure of him and the recent Minmei figure I just got came with a bowl of noodles, tray and even chopsticks (2 tiny separate sticks even). They are very good about packing in accessories. Only thing is my guess is Milia would come before him which is fine with me.
-
They molded in the rumpled fabric look. That obviously isn't a great picture but it looks good in person.
