I should hope so otherwise we're going to get some unhappy faces on this thread here..

Nice to see a familiar name here on MW and his write up.. I'll bug you later on the other site.

First new update 18 mins later.. Movie version VF-31F is up for grabs if anyone is interested on Amiami (Item A/Box B) for roughly 18.5k yen. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-039718-R Edit: 2nd update (11 mins later).. 31a is up on Amiami also (Item A/Box B) for 55k yen. If anyone wants one, here's your chance otherwise it's gone from this provider. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-037326-R

Thread resurrection (and I'm not talking about the Alien: Resurrection Film folks... From what I heard, it was a disaster). Amiami has a the DX YF-19 Full set up for grabs (Item A/ Box B) for roughly 28k yen if anyone wants one. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038985-R

So that interns the Armoured for Arad will be one first and then the Supers or the Supers and then the Armoured pack? I think that we all will find out soon.

Ha Ha!! l looks like that Megs is not pleased after disposing Screamer and now he has another player to contend with.. Grimmy on the other hand is not even flinching... Bugs aside, still going to pick up the Strike Hikaru sometime later on this year.

Medicom/Hot Toys and all 1/6 scale figures
borgified replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I found more stuff on Toys TV HK channel (in no order). There's more that I won't post up. Have fun in looking up the rest. -
And sold out for now. So my guestimate was off on my post on the 30th of last month (of mid-25k yen). With this version of the DX VF-1J in 1/48 scale, hopefully that the latter versions of this mold will be refined.

Just went on now and it says that they have 4 in stock via third party seller. Best wished to all in 2019 as it's 10:50 PM PST in YVR with an hour and ten mins to go..

Medicom/Hot Toys and all 1/6 scale figures
borgified replied to EXO's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Not a new 1/6th figure update, however a behind the scenes look in the set up of Hot Toys figure display in Comic Cons. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OdJh7gQCIc It's 10;45 pm PST in VYR and best to all for 2019. Hopefully more shots of new 1/6th stuff to post. -
There is one up for grabs on Manda at 1/20 scale though. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1102966760&ref=list&dispCount=240&keyword=マクãƒã‚¹&lang=en

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
borgified replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
That I can attest to.. I believe that some has mentioned (don't remember who either on MW or TFW2005's Macross thread) that the regular Yammie 1/48 releases are slowly getting cheaper due to the release of the DX VF-1 variants [that doesn't include the obscure colour versions]. Looks like that I may poke around at different online shops and acquire another 1/48 valk or the GBP unit for the ones that presently have now. -
Looks like someone has gotten a copy already off Manda for 22k yen. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1103241593&ref=list&keyword=マクãƒã‚¹&lang=en Edit: Amazon.jp is asking 27k yen (for me) for the DX version from a 3rd party seller. Out of 6 reviewers that has a copy already, seems like it's a 4.5 star rating.

@nightmareB4macross and @rdrunner - I hope that you two guys get this update.
-
Sildani posted that he got it through Yeti's website and I went on there 10 mins ago and saw nothing. Has @ChaoticYeti updated his website recently of the adapters (or am I not seeing it).
-
Thanks to both chyll2 and Lolicon post: 11k yen for the DX VF-1j with the stand sans box (and now sold out)?? What the heck!! That's one hell of a deal.. I'm guessing that the full box and stand will go for mid-25k yen (?) if Manda does get some in stock..
-
Well. well, well... Look what we have here. Since I've been on the DX VF-1J thread for quite sometime now and decided to go on Amiami for anything special, this was listed. Another YF-30 is up for grabs (as of now) - Item A/Box B for 35K yen. https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-005738-R Someone's Macross Grail/Belated Christmas or Boxing Day present needs to be filled??

The RVF-171EX doesn't have the Super Parts set only the RVF-25 Renewal has the 3 Ghosts and boosters. The only versions that have the Amoured Pack are Alto and the CF (I believe the KO set for CF has missiles only). The Maruyama set has the Amoured parts in the set. I believe Sildani got the missiles from the DX YF-19 Full Set. As for the rail gun attachment clip, I believe its custom made? Damn... I'm trying not get Yeti stands yet as I don't have a dedicated Macross shelf, but I now I'm really thinking about it.

Hmmm... Based on David's post from Stonekeung01 the 1/48 GBP armour might not fit (based on my observations) to nightmare and rdrunner. Bandai has changed the overall appearance on the 1J from Yammie's 1/48 offering. Chest area - Yamato is fatter and longer than compared to Bandai's offering which is skinner and shorter (looking at the vents along the flight cockpit area). Arms - Totally different as the Yamato looks like a skeleton while the DX version is more atomically correct as the forearms are more like a humanoid. Hipbone (Intake turbine area) [Ha! Going to give a Shakria reference here: Hips Don't Lie. ] - Yamato has it shorter and stubbier while the DX has it longer and wider. Legs - Are wing canards on the thigh going to fit and be flush with the DX wearing the Yammie version? The DX version looks slightly longer. Pilot sitting area - The Yammie looks like it's sitting lower than the DX since its sitting up higher towards the chest. There's more that I can actually nit pick, however I'll leave it as that. Still going to keep the Yammie 1/48 and also get the DX version as well.

Here's a rundown of what we have in Canada if anything is sent by mail and here's a brief description.. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/import/postal-postale/dtytx-drttx-eng.html TL/DR: We Canadian's get hosed if anything is sent through airmail (Canada Post) and they declare a value of the goods upon inspection. Sometimes we do get lucky and no import fee/tax needs to be paid. Edit: I got dinged for roughly $48 CDN in taxes for the DX YF-19 Full Set that I got from Manda at 26k yen from Utsunomiya.
-
Most likely that customs will snag it and slap a hefty import tax on it. Hmmm.. This is just an guestimate for me in Canada if I was to get the Monster. Let's say 18k yen (from Manda), tack on the fees and etcetera as it might be close to roughly 24k yen (or more due to weight and dimensions). Reaches the CBSA in Richmond. B.C. and slaps a $70ish CND import tax on top of that. Edit: Grand total $366 CND after revision (not $310 CDN)...
-
Mass shifting/animation errors?? Now this is making me think to a get a GBP for my 1/48 Strike Hikaru or for the Low Vis 1a..
-
Whoa!! Slow down on your thoughts. Patience mon ami. This DX-VF1J just got released overseas and it will be sometime when someone will do it with the original Yammie V.2 /Arcadia GBP. You and everyone will get the results soon.
-
Are you going to use the "Peroxide Treatment" on your 171 EX? My second copy of VF-171EX Alto is slightly yellow and I'm not worried about it. Going to weather it and put it on display with the Amour Parts plus with the rest of my Macross collection when I get a proper shelf.
