somebody knows if this is P-Bandai or public release?

every time I see this thread on top of the list page makes me happy , but then it makes me sad  

So here is a picture of the DX YF 21 to criticize how small is the canopy looks and the rest of the body seems a kinda big 

Found a total legit image of the canopy size redesign  for de XD 21, finally Bandai is listening to us  

manage to get Wing Zero in AmiAmi, just kept refreshing the page for almost 15 min lol, and bang! the PO orange button appeared once more  ,  fan of Saint Seiya figures as well but couldn't get the PO for the new release  in HLJ since it was my only place to go for this one  . And I thought this was going to be an easy one. But nope it was nuts!

You mean, another plant somewhere in China?  

hehe most probably if they did .

That's actually one of the ones I'm interest it, grabs my attention an SHF figure will include diecast, I wonder how much that will be. By the way PO pages are up in AmiAmi, also interesting to see that the max purchase limit is to 3 now in all Bandai's PO's, first time I see this for high end figures POs, or maybe there aren't that popular who knows. Usually is always 1 per household , does Bandai open up another manufacturing plant somewhere ?

Thank you so much @no3Ljm much appreciated , so is later today the PO craziness will start , there's other Bandai stuff I'm looking forward to get  besides the Wing Zero, let's see how it goes. 

somebody knows when the PO's will start for the Metal Robot Wing Zero ? 

the figure looks stunning in both modes!, this is indeed a Masterpiece in my opinion:

if someone interested(hell sure I am  ) Square Enix decide to re-release Play Arts CLoud and Fenrir again!, the PO is up at AmiAmi , just got my PO cause no way in hell I'm letting this beauty pass again!, I'm a big fan Advent Children and wanted  Cloud and Fenrir since lots and lots of years ago couldn't get it in the first wave cause of budget issues, but not this time , seriously this came up out of nowhere and is amazing!

why they are so opaque in color?, even the retros have better metallic coloring, still I think will support this and buy some, seriously Super7 lost a huge opportunity here , it went from a Insta-purchase to a probably-purchase buy just because of the color.

probably the only reason I would try to buy this release it would be just to have a brand new VF 31j , already got one used from a fellow member here in the forums some years ago.

Starting to get very hyped for this Optimus Prime, I mean the robot mode looks freaking badass!

I bought the SV-51 from HLJ in Jan 2021 and in their item description it explicitly said this version had the ankle issue resolved. Got the item and it was fine. I would expect this reissue to have the fix as well.

Thanks @ValkAddict for the info, I didn't know in HLJ put the leg issue fix confirmation in the description, seriously so tempted to get this one now, next couple of months is pack for pending PO's that will be released that I need to fulfill, man why Arcadia won't do a Reissue on the normal version of VF 0S or OD ?, I would get those POs right away 

lol true , I didn't realize those after I put the PO on AmiAmi, still overall for the price, size and detail as Robot mode I think is great in my opinion, it really grab my attention Takara selling this MP Optimus Prime with a similar G1 front and with this size for this price, usually I would expect from them to sell this at Y20000 but for Y15000?, ok you have a deal, well at least for me, I hope the plastic quality is good and have some diecast parts, and going back to those awful cat ears, I hope I can flip them over or I will sand those suckers

Happened to check out HLJ tonight and saw that the SV-51, VF-4A, and VF-1J 35th Anniversary valks are getting July reissues:

https://www.hlj.com/1-60-scale-sv-51-gamma-d-d-ivanov-boarding-machine-final-battle-specification-reissue-aca82147-2

 

I wonder if we need to have a concern about the leg issue on this reissue, the valk looks great I really want one  since also I don't have any valk from this Macross saga, but still paying that amount and be concerned to see if I receive a proper valk with the correct legs ? , hmmm really not sure , I mean really don't care if there are some loose joints but for a total error in such a big part, will see will see 

somebody knew this Masterpiece was coming?, for me it appeared out of nowhere , really didn't expecting it. 

not sure if PO this one, the colors look very bland and definitely intentional they didn't put any promo images from the back , hmmm I wonder why?, still the convoy mode looks very good in my opinion, really surprising also that this Prime doesn't have an stratospheric price I wonder how big it is. 

found this: 

I think is a very good size judging by the size of the hand  

ok I will PO now! 

so glad I got mine from the PO mayhem, it was well worth it

hell yeah got mine from AmiAmi

so is the PO tonight?

Not sure dont know japanese   but I think with this images we can have a good idea 

for the standalone armor  Tamashi Exclusive is 4/23 Japan Time  usually 4 pm

For the complete set it looks like 4/28 Japan time 4 pm usually so for us will be in 4/27 at night with different time zones

instead of just the armor I'm more excited for this one cause is a general sale! 

Hmm didn't expect any Masterpiece lately, these ones look pretty cool, resembles alot G1 toys, I think I might get both

I hope Bandai, Arcadia give us some news soon regarding Macross brand going world wide now.

literally the only series I started watching since Breaking Bad, can't wait for season two!.
