Nope, i dont' have it anymore.

ok, now i know. KJ! yup

Havent logged on for some time. totally gave up! And i didn't know about this was surfaced before. So you're the one who bought it. Apologies, i can't remember who you are.. Why put up VT-1? Well, if i gave up, then just it all go. time and time again

So, to keep things short here goes ITEM - VF-1J Super 2.0 So i bought it when it first came out, fiddled with it and then off it goes to cupboard for storage. 2010, i took it out, looked via opening the front flap what greeted me was a horror, the canopy looked liked it cracked. panicked. removed it and found that it didn't but it visually the canopy looked like "spiderweb" Puzzled and opened it, touched the outside of the canopy, nothing! Opened the canopy and put my fingers under it. Appears the "spiderwebs" was the "RAINBOW TINT THAT HAD TURNED INTO THREADS" Easily wiped out and it becomes Ver 1.0 canopy. Also, the 1J turned YELLOWISH. So once again, Yamato has succeeded in never fail to DISAPPOINT me and i swear off never buying anything from them, ever. I plead with you to stop producing macross toys, i still loved my macross, so please don't kill it. I know it's pretty much a lot to speak for with no pictures to prove it. but it did happen to me and i can't see myself being an carrothead time and time again Anyone else?

are these the ones you're talking about http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=29080

Another online exclusive crap Weathered 1s http://www.yamato-toys.com/items/detail.php?gid=1515

Agreed, Low vis was in last week.

Their stock just arrived on 21 Oct evening time. so yours should probably be shipped now

my sentiments exactly! Despite the long paragraph, it still points to "NOTHING" concrete

Sometimes..........it's on purpose......

Probably one of the best buy this year

Not sure if this has been posted I just got wind that the 1/48 KAKIZAKI 1A is DELAYED again to NOV 09

hey guys, no need to post links of past "fustration" with YAMATO, Like i said, just thoughts running in my mind, im not fustrated with them, just discussing this liberally

Oh well, i still love them yes, but just issues like these are putting me off. im still in awe everytime i see them but bottomline is that it's not a "complete" quality product

Just random thoughts in my head, no way m i bashing them. 1/48 ERA Pretty much the revival of macross for us colletors. i still rememebered that when the first 1/48 prototype was shown. Majority of us were like kids in candy store. That was pretty much the beginning of a buying frenzy, i had absolutely every piece. Some of us were buying doubles, triples, switching heads and wings around to have a MAX 1S. We probably literally thanked God for answering our prayers of a modern day perfect transformation valkyrie. Eventually i sold them all. 1/60 ERA Nothing much for me to say here, never like it since the legs needed to be detached REPAINT After the 1/48 kinda stabilized, we started to see repaints coming in, expending the mold as much as possible. this is understandable from a economics of scale perspective. 1/60 V2.0 ERA Basically turning everything that's 1/48 to 1/60, of course with improvements and i must give credit to them. but however by now im basically sick and tired of them. im just getting te Super O and Elintseeker, after that it's bye for me PRESENT DAY EXCLUSIVE/LIMITED -What's so exclusive about Yamato's macross? 3 times reissued weathered Roy 1S, TV MAX and KAKIZAKI, Fan Racer. Why called it an exclusive if you not gonna stop doing it? With the news of weathered 1J. it's just a matter of time everything gets the weathered treatment. i had the chance to own all the so called exclusives before, not once but several times over and im glad i did pass on, since the weathered 1J proved that this is still in motion. so how many more valks to go? CLUB EXCLUSIVE - Now this bothers even more, everytime i see an club exclusive being announced, it turns to junk and readily available via several avenues what's so special about it? clearing old stock by repainting them by random workers? QC - The most prominent, My 1/48s were practically all showing signs or turned yellowed. markings on 25th anniversary were wrong, Tab B broken, Shoulder hinge broken. after all these years, they still can't get it right? Why kill off something that you have made good and tell me why should i still buy yamato macross? What's your take?

I gave up on Yamato, so not bothered at all.

Ok, Ok, time to chill. More valk porn..... Say does anyone have any pictures of the VF-1J with Arab wordings?

If my memory serves me correctly. there were two custom M&Ms 1. Done in old school takatoku layout, both in plane mode side by side (Sadly no pics of that in my hard disk) 2. The more recent one as below when the reissues came out. Old members will know which one im talking about for the first one.

That was a custom box,

That was what's on mind as well Graham. not forgetting that the movie isnt' out yet and there's two parts! So we'll be seeing more and more variants+recolors!

does that head laser look different? seems to be like metal

Thanks for the prompt reply. appreciate it Looks like i have to hunt the kit This bring me to another question 1. Apart from the Enigma, did hasegawa did anything else? (Excluding the option decals sold separately)

Hi all, i'll just like to eheck, did hasegawa ever did produced the engima decals in 1/72? im looking for it, many thanks

Doesnt' matter what type of exclusive they throw out...... first round here states that it's 300pcs.......... Then club members can start ordering next round they'll just re-release it again. not forgetting.............they way they are right now, i would not be surprised if distributors can order as many as they like........ heck the fan racer is all over the shop locally
