Ok, that turned out looking really great! Nice job!

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Sweet hauls! I look forward to seeing the cover shot @sh9000 Got a few pieces I’ve been wanting for a very long time. The weapon set is pretty much the greatest thing ever!

Not really strange or odd...We are still getting plenty of VF-1 toys released currently and that was over 35 years ago. There are new Mazinger and Gatchaman toys coming out that I buy and those came out over 40 years ago... Same here and I'm glad I skipped all the issue prone Valks of the time. I'll definitely be grabbing this (if I can get a preorder in) and any others. If they don't make others, money saved and I still get to enjoy looking at pictures of old ones that people have.

Haha, I’m sure there are no regrets by anyone who owns the Arcadia 0S right? It’s been working out great for me. They are the only shop that has actually improved their website based on troubles people have during preorder madness. I never experience a single glitch on NY, it’s either you get it or you don’t. HLJ and AmiAmi on the other hand...constant crashing and glitches where people have to try over and over again just to even attempt to check out. HLJ is practically useless at this point for preorder madness and AmiAmi is a pita and would be as bad as HLJ if they didn’t prepost everything.

Fantastic! -
I look forward to less competition when preordering at NY!
-
Those a$$holes. Now I’m going to place another order there.
-
I love how it’s NY’s fault that Arcadia has delayed the release in some people’s minds.
-
I might as well just add that the Arcadia VF-0S is one of the best Valk toys ever made. Strong contender for #1 along with the DX VF-1 depending on your preference.
-
I’m aware of oversized KOs and I know some are good or better quality than the originals. Just had to qualify that I need those standards to consider purchasing. I don’t need one or ever thought about it as I would be happy to just get reissues but if it happens and it meets my specs, I’m in!
-
Nice!
-
And when you factor in the “actually available” part, it amounts to nearly nothing!
-
Hmmm, I might buy something like that. Wouldn’t pay more than $200 and it would have to be quality.
-
I wouldn’t mind seeing the 1/55’s get reissued. I’d definitely buy a “few” more. The DX is not a replacement or substitution for the Chunky Monkey. They both serve very different purposes to me.
-
Haha, yeah I’ll never get rid of mine and if anything, I still keep an eye out to buy more when I find deals on certain ones. I think any deco that appeared in any official media is a strong possibility. Plus a few special decos like anniversary or other ones with silly images or colors but not cool, realistic decos like the Low-Vis stuff Yamato made.
-
It’s hard to beat some of the decos on those Yamato 1/48s. That and I still think there is a lot to love in them. Their simplicity but good looks was never done before and still hasn’t been done since.
-
That's great news! I have a couple orders that I haven't bothered about checking since I knew the situation and was going to wait it out but hope they can send me some of them too to get it out of the way.
-
Ah, good to know. Thanks!
-
$55...I can deal with that. But I don’t feel like painting it so I’ll just continue to enjoy looking at pictures.
-
Haha yeah! The group here is great overall but I’m sure we all know someone like that. I had to look up this whole Daicon thing myself and others already answered your question about that. I agree that I love that era of animation and I had to look up their Daicon III clip as well. Fun stuff!
-
Haha, no need to explain, pose your toys however you like. There is nothing not to like here, imo!
-
Haha, if anything, it’s more fun to make fun of or just plain laugh at know it alls. People who think they know everything or try to make it seem like they do by spouting off a ton of info no one cares about. It’s great to learn and discover new things!
-
Holy $#!+, I've never seen tha before and the animation is fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
-
OK, that's a tad over what I'm willing to pay but very sweet! At that price, I would expect a real working spec replica.
-
Yeah, I'm good either way and I know @borgified has my back either way so all good. Once I get my SSP, I'll finally break out my Missile packs too and have some fun!
