Yeah! I'd love some Arad super parts. It's my favorite of all the VF-31's. Hard to believe they haven't released a super set for it yet.
-
They want you to pay ahead so that could be why it's still available. A lot of people probably don't want to pay up front. It would be pretty crappy of them to take peoples money then email them after they think they've secured one only to tell them they can't fulfill the order. Also they jacked the price up almost $50 more from the initial price. -
It's like he's holding his baby boy LOL

Agreed, I like the Messer but I want to get the version with the symbol on it. I believe it's the movie version. I'm a sucker for the Arad one so I bought that along with the armor parts. I probably won't buy all of them VF-31's but the Kai version with the super parts looks sharp to me.
-
How many versions of this are they going to make? Other than the speaker attachment is there any other difference? I suppose if someone wasn't able to get the first issue it's a chance to get it but pre-ordering is still a pain

@505thAirborne shot of the other side

@505thAirborne Depending on the lighting it can look grey but it's definitely got some blue.
-
I'll take a close up pic tomorrow for you. In bed right now. So you can get a better look at it
-
Definitely a light blue grey I actually thought of painting them black with some small red accents to match the Valk
-
Thanks guys. I'm thinking of getting a strike pack for it. I'm assuming it has the necessary connection points like the other 1/60 VF-1's.
-
Yes but Macross collectors are cool. So we deserve special treatment from Bandai
-
Just arrived. So glad I got it!
-
That's certainly what it seems like.
-
I like how they operate. People still ordering, make more. I wish Bandai was like that too. I do really like my only Valk from them. It does seem like the workmanship on them is very good. I keep leaning closer and closer to just pre-ordering the Ivanov SV-51
-
Figured as much. I only have one Arcadia but I might get a couple more down the road if I decide there's something I have to have.

Also be sure to check out this thread before you post @Dinosaur:

So what's the deal with it being easier to get Arcadia Macross toys as opposed to the Bandai DX line? Is it just simply the higher price point of the Arcadia's making it less appealing to Scalpers or something else?
-
One option is to post in the Wanted thread here: https://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/forum/10-wanted/ Maybe someone is looking to sell one and they can hook you up.

The light up effects of this are pretty awesome. -
I'm right there with you @vladykins . The postmaster general needs to be taken out of his position. He's been purposely trying to ruin the post office from within for years. All it does is hurt all of us if we lose a reliable institution like the post office. It's not perfect but it's better than the private shipping companies.

I do have a bottle of that so maybe I'll be fine if I get one
-
Ahh I see. The way it's worded it read like it's a new mold altogether. In the review he commented on the various shoulder hinges being quite loose and not able to support holding the gun or the extra accessories that are attached to the wings. There's not a locking mechanism that helps to keep them in place, at least in Gerwalk mode.
-
All too familiar with it. It says in the description that's it's a new mold so hopefully they addressed all the hinge issues.

Luna Park still has it for preorder but I think you have to pre-pay: https://www.lunapark.store/product-page/dx-chogokin-armored-parts-set-for-vf-1j-japan-version

Damn that is impressive! That's not just dedication, it's obsession LOL! Though I can't blame you. I've already acquired a DX Roy and his Arcadia VF-0S so I feel you. I'll probably never be able to be as committed as yourself but I certainly can appreciate it!
