    Bandai DX VF-31

    Yeah it is too much happening here, even if the colours are good. I mean you can barely see the VF-31 anymore. given how great the VF-31 looks I wouldnt want to cover it up.
  2. I think this guy in the forum is selling one:
  3. Ill patiently wait for a review and see, I do feel the over engineering in Bandai toys lowers the durability long term. Minus some paint chipping i have no issues with the Yammy 1/48s.

    I think in fighter mode the Super packs just dont work, the boosters just seem silly to be honest.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I got mine for 30K + 3000 on SAL from NY, but thankfully no customs on it. I think they know how to do it properly there. I got my second one from CDJ, 25k + 5800 EMS Shipping and then got charged customs cause they declared the full RRP of said toy. So i got royally screwed on that. I didnt intend to buy two, I would be willing to sell my second one but yes unfortunately have to wait till prices go up just to break even, if it ever does. $280 with shipping at this stage is a fair price, assuming you dont get taxed of course.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I agree, orange doesnt work very well with the livery of Arad's VF 31. Perhaps the red/turquoise combo could have worked better.
  7. Why do you say that?
  8. My humble collection of my 1/48's. I switched over to other stuff. But personally I love this size and the gimmicks on the 1/48 series. Will display again once i settle down. My Low Vis has the velcro front flap.
  9. Is the Yamato VF-11C really worth $1000 in MISB https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Super-Rare-Yamato-1-60-Macross-Plus-VF-11C-Valkyrie-with-Super-Pack/283123817185?hash=item41eb7e9ae1:g:NskAAOSw2i9ZzyFY:rk:10:pf:0

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I have to admit, if I was selling one on Ebay i have no idea how they could make any money selling it at $230 including shipping plus Ebay fees. Unless they stole one from the factory in China, in which case fair enough. lol. I would have to sell my second YF-19 for a lot more just to break even due it being subjected to Customs...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    10/14/2018 15:19 In Customs 10/14/2018 15:19 Item presented to import Customs 10/17/2018 08:39 Departure from inward office of exchange 10/17/2018 08:39 Item returned from import Customs 10/18/2018 00:10 Processing at delivery Post Office 10/18/2018 Retention Slightly off topic, but anyone know what to do when waiting for a package and you get this as the status? I ordered from CDJ and EMS shipping. Google has said it means I may have to pay taxes, but I dont know for sure. Ironically I used the cheaper airmail for another item from NY and that arrived faster even though it shipped later.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    Thanks, after reading all the messages on this thread I have also gone ahead and loosened the screws. Seems to work better in getting it to the top. My VF-22 seems OK, the possibility isn't amazing but seems to stand OK in this pose

    New Proud owner of a yf-19 without a broken head laser, but oh jesus those tight legs lol. I never got the Yf-21 so a Vf-22 side by side will suffice for now. It is a gorgeous figure. Very happy.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    So the Hayate VF-31F comes with some draken connectors and a Hayate pilot figure, otherwise there is literally 0 difference between this and the VF-31F?
  15. Great thread, gonna try some of those potential fixes on my YF-29 30th, it's got the loose shoulders

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    No you did understand correct , just worried about the QC issues. Hopefully it doesn't look like anything serious so far.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    Im very apprehensive now about receiving my figure...Not sure what to do if something doesnt work?
  18. From these pics, besides the pose ability I dont really say any major upgrades over the 1/48 Yamato VF1's.
  19. Unless you happen to own a Yamato 1/60 V1 and a Toynami MPC Ben Dixon, I am almost certain these investments have lost value for me.

    BANDAI DX YF-19!!

    I know anymoon website mentioned the Bandai VF-19 edges out the Arcadia YF-19 just barely, if you had to buy one. Does that same comment hold true for the YF-19?
  22. this is fighter mode is gorgeous
