    When it comes to the YF-21/VF-22, I think a parts-former is probably the best solution. Maybe in the new Bandai HG 1/100 line alongside the YF-19 and YF-29. It's just got too much anime magic (before even mentioning the morphing wings) to ever be made into a perfect transformation toy without at least one mode suffering.

    I mean...if I ended up with some cool custom VF figures/kits, I'd be kinda ok with that? I'd still prefer a good show, but I'd take a bad show with lots of interesting merch over say Delta.

    I think the one I got from AE ended up under $175 shipped. Definitely high for an HMR.

    V-tubers and TikTok influencers? God, I really hope not.

    Adjust for inflation and exchange rates, and it's not quite as bad. Right now something selling for ¥20,000 only ends up at $145 on my CC statement.

    Proxy finally shipped out my pair. Not sure exactly how I want to display them yet.
  8. Sanity is Optional
    A proxy like From Japan, except I can actually still get P-Bandai orders through them. it’s going to be the same price at every proxy, roughly, excepting Zen Market because they charge a percentage.
  9. Sanity is Optional
    Not so bad through the proxy, closer to $180 before shipping ea.
  10. Sanity is Optional
    My proxy just received the two I ordered.
  11. Sanity is Optional
    Not bad after yen exchange rate, under $150 before shipping for both.

    Given issues with actual gold plastic, it may be a gold coating over yellow plastic?

    Good to see they're continuing actually using series characters in these after the Ranka one. Give me Sheryl damnit! Milia would also be good!

    I will say with the current quality (and removal of much of the B runner), the new RGs are taking the place of MGs. I do appreciate they cost less, and take less space.
  15. Sanity is Optional
    I hope they have the booster separate and compatible with the older Laevatein. Probably not though, guess I'll shell out again.

    My ankles were fine actually. It's nice they're stiffer after watching my OG Arcadia YF-19 face-plant due to the weak ankles. For my gerwalk joint, I waited to put it back in until I'd locked in everything else to fighter mode, seemed to help give it more support. Also had to ratchet it in all the way at once, trying to go 1 click at a time stalled out.

    You guys made me worried enough to open up my PF YF-19. Legs are fine, though clicking the gerwalk joint back in for fighter mode is really stiff. Haven't tackled the arms yet, but nothing obviously broken or missing.

    Managed to get myself the SSD+Bomber+a set of Hoth Troopers to push me up high enough for the Death Star. Took like an hour though, and that's with already having everything but the SSD in cart.

    Oof, glad I got mine in at Anime Export. Bandai really needs to fix their MSRP to reflect current exchange rates. $220 vs $290 is absurd.

    My VF-25G pre-order was $218.96, not including shipping (which is probably going to be around ($30-$50). Compared to Amazon's price of the VF-25F super pack of $280, plus almost $30 more in tax... (As an estimate of Amazon's VF-25G price).
  21. Sanity is Optional
    Just shipped mine out from HLJ, along with some other stuff. Not too bad, like $55 in shipping.
  22. Sanity is Optional
    I'm absolutely down for a 19P, actually prefer it over Ronald McValk.
  23. Sanity is Optional
    Looks like that and the 19P that went up with it are both gone, presumably sold. [edit] Nevermind, they're back.
  24. Sanity is Optional
    Still waiting on HLJ to charge/stock.

    Arcadia looks better in fighter form, and is more anime-accurate in appearance. Bandai looks better in Battroid form, and is more detailed in appearance.
