  1. My mistake then. But I can’t shake the feeling someone here had some terrible experiences.
  2. Looks good Yeti!
  3. No, pretty sure BigInJapan got blasted for something... I think @Shizuka the Cat got burned?
  4. Thanks for that, I prefer the Yamaguchi. That said, I like Probert’s Enterprise C most.
  5. I’m still looking for a good way to remove screw covers. One tip I got was to superglue old sprue onto the cover and lift directly, then carefully remove the sprue and sand the glue spot. Wondering if there’s another solution...
  6. Wow. I was NOT expecting this. Dunno if I’ll get one though.
  7. I really like the U-Wing.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I’ll get him. I never get more than one of a particular kind of VF, but Chuck’s really appeals. Mostly because I want to see how the radome folds up.
  9. Good pics, thanks!
  10. Good questions. Future Con exclusives?
  11. An open question: is there a tool anyone would recommend to remove the screw covers from Yamato/Bandai toys? Plastic spudgers might break, some of them are on so tightly. Thanks!
  12. Was it ever stated what unit Isamu Dyson was assigned to before his forceable transfer to New Edwards? Any resource, as well, for the colors UN Spacy flight suits were made in at the time of Macross Plus? Were they all blue with white bits? Lastly: for the VF-11, the model kits seem to have the panel lined area of the wing roots made with transparent bits. The Yamato toys are blanked off solid grey. Which is correct, and what’s under there, do we know?Thanks!
  13. There’s a twist right behind the intakes.
  14. Courtesy of 505thAirborne, I finally... FINALLY... got my grail! By the way: what was so special about the two foam bits under the cockpit that they deserved their own big piece of paper in the box? Also the canopy has no rainbow effect; was there a second production run that didn’t have it?
  15. The rear half of the YF-23?
  16. Worth noting here that the Macross WE want isn’t necessarily the Macross OTHERS want, and it seems the others outnumber us greatly.
  17. Heat shield that can extend in fighter mode. Removable nosecone that can be stowed on the arm of another VF. Fowler flaps on the inner wings with separate ailerons instead of one big moving flap. Dual arrestor hooks. Ab crunch. Geared VG wings. Integrated gunpod strap.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    That would still cost more than the initial MSRP, assuming other countries have the stock. And if they did, why no brown shipper boxes? Is that a Japan-only thing? If N-Y could cajole Bandai into another production run, I’d bet my bottom dollar they’d have Bandai make enough to sell new on their site at a markup. N-Y isn’t offended by money after all. Finally, does Bandai actually do QA refurbs? That’s new to me if they do.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Not unless it transforms into Hawaii Elvis. At this point they’re undoubtedly buying them from 3rd parties/shops and taking a loss on each. That’s awesome of them. Dat rear stabilizer.
  20. Where will it be sold, please?
