  1. For me, the green visor seems to clash with this livery/color scheme. If the visor were golden too...I dunno. Maybe. That woodland camo valk is a longtime want of mine since I saw Revell's USA release of the "ROBOTECH CHANGERS" version of the Imai kit of the VF-1D labeled as "Orbot". It's a natural progression of repaint ideas, and Yamato was smart to do it. I'd jump if DX/Arcadia did a new one....maybe even if KC did too...
  2. It's really hard to collect Macross figures on a budget. Trust me, I know. Aside from the good advice above, creating saved searches on eBay, Craigslist, etc. is a good idea. Especially those folks accepting offers on their listings. Most of all, if an item is not THAT far off from your price range, MESSAGE THE SELLER! You never know what might happen, and it never hurts to ask.
  3. GameStop has these in the USA, but NOT Valks. Leaves me stunned.
  4. Wow, they really are digging deep into licenses. Now I wanna see Cannon's and Barnaby Jones' rides.
  5. The more I look at that maroon Valk Factory Millia VF-1J the more I wanna do that Axoid custom myself...damn, I wish these were like $50 instead of $150 😆
  6. Aww. Looks like a newborn puppy trying to fetch the newspaper.
  7. I don't disagree, and I'm not one of them, but some do only get on board when there's a limited individually-numbered run of an item. Now KC has changed the terms after funds have changed hands, and I do wonder if some want to opt-out now due to that...and if they can. I can see how they would have a case.
  8. So...do the original 500 who ordered this get copies with the "x/1000" label they ordered, or will they now get the same "x/1888" label that everyone ordering now gets? I ask, because wouldn't changing those terms potentially be a reasonable basis for someone to cancel their preorder and expect a deposit refund? I can imagine some being upset at the extension of the run to where what they ordered, even if it's the label on the box, has materially changed after payment was made. Just curious...
  9. I'd ordered from them a few weeks ago, and the item arrived. It was the only order I'd ever placed with them, so take that for what it is.
  10. Sub-1/60 is problematic for me (Yeah, I know. Hi-Metal included), but this does look nice. I just don't know.
  11. Just saw the Knight Rider KITT and KARR 2-pack in Target, and picked him up.

    Macross spy valks

    Ah, but 1/48 is my wheelhouse right now. Need that to come.
  13. I paid a tad more for a 1/48 set, but agreed. They were on the level. I also find their grading to be quite conservative (ie, condition is usually better than they state).
  14. Forgive my ignorance if there's something closer, but is that design the closest Macross has come to the fictional MiG-31 Firefox? It surely looks inspired by it.
