  1. I quite like the look of that green/black Ba version myself.
  2. Thanks guys. Yeah i'm not a modeller myself. Another reason i like collecting the valks. They come ready made and painted....more or less
  3. Thank you @Mommar They look incredible. So many types too! I would end up making my valk look like the mave yukikaze lol
  4. What are those tanks and missiles from may i ask? The retractable missile pods really suit the 31a. This valk is getting better all the time.
  5. @Seto Kaiba The resemblances are vague that's for sure. Maybe the style, attitude and squadron/team just remind me of Escaflowne. Probably most with the Bogue/Dilandau comparison. Ironically, Kawamori was the original creator for Escaflowne too.
  6. No joke. But if saving money is a joke, you can call me the Joker
  7. I've only had one dealing with NY regarding pre orders. That's the Arcadia vf-0s premium currently on pre order. It's hardly a low price pre order but I have not had a look around for anywhere cheaper on that one. Of the stuff I have bought from them recently, I'm not impressed with their slow processing and shipping times and the crap discount you get for spending big money with them, it takes the p×ss! No problem, thankfully there are a few places for pre orders when it comes to valks
  8. I was speaking more about their general prices. Jungle is another good site similar to mandarake.
  9. I bought a brand new Yf-25 on ebay recently £175 all in. I always Google what I'm looking for then check each site for prices and postage.
  10. Do you guys not shop around? Even ebay can be cheaper than NY. Depends on what your looking for.
  11. A fitting name lol I would have one of each. Gives me an excuse to buy the 31f to go with the 31s and 31a. 3 vs 3 display would look cool.
  12. A white variant could be interesting
  13. If you like their discount system fair enough. I have other places to buy valks for cheaper and less shipping costs to boot.
  14. Damn scandalous it is! Sideshow Collectibles were throwing $25-$35 discounts at you all the time. NY could definitely learn a thing from them. Surprised NY are still in business if that's how they reward their customers.
  15. Bogue = Dilandau from Escaflowne. Aerial Knights = The Dragon Slayers Keith = Alan Schezar Hayate = Vaan No one else see the resemblances?
  16. I thought this site wasn't X rated? Because there seems to be a lot of valk porn being shown! Those twitter pics are incredible.
  17. The more pictures i see of this thing the more i like it. So wish i had mine now! The only tiny negative nit pick i can give the 31 is the rear landing gear design. It looks like it has mud flaps. I get that it works and is part of the design but i would have liked a more conventional rear landing gear. But it's such a small issue i'm not even that bothered. Looks great in the diorama and with armaments.
  18. It's my first time watching mac 7 and i am currently on ep 37. As far as thoughts go comparing it to everything else I've seen in macross, it's definitely one of the weaker series. It's dragged out far too long. The story isn't strong enough to warrant the 49 episodes i feel. It should be the usual 26. It's very repetitive and I'm struggle at times to stay engaged in the story. The music however, is good. Of the three "macross pillars" the music is the strongest. The mecha is meh, and the love triangle is lame and to be honest just plain wrong. Mecha is always my biggest draw to macross but for mac 7 i have to give it to the music. It was definitely the main focus above everything else. Well done Fire Bomber.
  19. Thanks @davidwhangchoi for selling me the awesome vf-0d and making it a nice easy transaction! Would definitely buy from you again.
  20. The Vf-0D has landed here in perfect condition! Thanks Dave for letting me buy one from you. I'm stoked to add it to the collection. It was a fair price, dead straightforward and i would happily buy from you again! Can't recommend Dave enough everyone, he's a spot on legit seller. Good lad. Many Thanks!
  21. The 31a kit does look cool. It definitely has the vf-11b blood in it's veins.
  22. NY's discount system is a joke! when you have spent over £500 you get £0.69p?!
  23. They certainly look like legs, even has toes that are retracted. I would be interested to know what the write up says in the image. The stance does give it a gorilla looking pose. The beach assault i think is the most you see of them.
