I'm a HUGE Robotech fan -sorry guys it's true. It's ironic then, that my favorite piece is fast becoming the one that was never depicted in the series at all:
Well, I got it. And despite Takatoku's weird packaging, I'm really satisfied.

The downside?
It's my Christmas gift, so I can't post pics until after present opening happy-fun-time.
lol
OMGs, take a look guys:
The rear of the packaging really was just the back of the styrofoam.

Hi guys:
I just received this item, but the packaging consists of the front of a box, and a styrofoam piece, with no back for the box.
Was this how the item was sold originally?
Many, many thanks if anyone can help me.
I protest this thread merge.
Why not combine every thread that says 1/48 scale?
The thread I started was specific to 1/55 scale valkyries, not general Macross toys. Please de-merge this.
OMGs that's totally hilarious.
Owning a Takatoku for me has been a totally awesome experience; to have the toy that started everything is like owning a founding piece of Macross history. It's definitely the flagship of my collection, and a must for any collector IMHO.
