    That's cool but I have to wonder if it would had taken much more effort to etch the numbers (embossed) into the plastic.

    Sorry, I missed the post earlier. that's a cool figure but its way different then I thought, I had to look it up again.

    I was just saying it could be a vender sample but no facts, I was just expressing a questioning opinion of its origins, the only facts are it's a Takatoku Variant not the updated 1985 mold with trademark and the paperwork, accessories were all slightly different in font and sizing, dates then the later version. Imo it's still ultra rare even if they made 90,000 how many are left and what condition? combined with how many had the first details before they changed to final details that are common. I only mistyped the first time admitting it was a typo but still sticking with its scarcity it's still the Masushiro type of rarity imo.🙂

    I meant Ultra Rare Early Production 1/55. Sorry I should have reread everything before posting it. you see one 1985 Strike Valkyrie for every hundred Jetfire's so this version is a much rarer variant like a Masushiro is for Jetfire It's a 1984 not the regular 1985 Strike Valkyrie. all the trademarks are 1983/84 and all the paperwork was slightly different from the 1985 including a few of the stickers on the sheets, it was possibility a early-production vender sample but without further paperwork that's just a guess. like many things from that era.

    Got this last night, I was expecting a bigger box. it's 1/3 the size of my Yamato 1/48 Stealth w/ Fast Packs. So far, So Good start for my 1st Bandai 1/48. added it next to my ultra rare 1984 Pre-Production Strike Valkyrie for comparison, its wild the 1/48 is bigger ,but in a smaller box then the 1/55. I just snagged a good deal for an Armored GBP Kit, for $39.00 with free shipping. that should give it more dress-up options. my last Toy Purchase for 2023 until April 2024 excluding open preorders. looks to be a nice swan song for the year.

    I've been wondering about those as I never seen much on Ebay. I came across a tiny pewter Minmay Bust that I was thinking was part of a game but never could figure it out. Maybe it was a game piece? I never bought it as seller wanted $75 for it.

    I've been sick since last Thursday when someone at work came in infecting everyone. so now it's clearing up, I'm clearheaded enough for some better pics of Spider Lady.

    Found more info on Reddit of all places I see she is getting some big time treatment. I'm totally going to buy this as I am just starting to explore the later Macross girls.
  10. Spark-O-Matic
    Thanks. I'm still learning about macross past Gen 1/2 it's same with transformers I know very little past Gen 1/2. I learn little pieces here and there, like now I know who she is, Thanks

    That's a good point. would love to see the super parts.
  12. Spark-O-Matic
    I'm not sure what it is, but seen others post animated pictures of it on the forum. That looks really nice! I like it! cute model

    It would be smart of KC to stop the limited production stuff and just inform everyone of limited runs, that if you don't buy it now then it might be a few years before they can make another run due to making other things. by putting those angel birds as a one time thing they are restricting what they can do in the future. The best thing they can do is market the 1/72 as a direct competitor to HM-R 1/100 and create a 1/35 Scale DX Competitor to the 1/48. Lots of metal & cast metal parts to create a premium feel and premium finished Valk. they might find better success this way.

    1980's Infrared Photograph Technique of the same object moving in frames in a stylized way. just pointing out for those unaware its just done to evoke a heritage feel to the artwork as if it was 1985 becouse they can't use the HM-R Artwork. If you ask me it looks like Shin Godzilla's Tail

    Anime Export says I'll get my Mechanic Edition Wednesday if so, that will be the fastest I've ever got something from Japan. Plaza Japan is about 10 days that's really good too.
  16. Spark-O-Matic
    She came in today. was sent by Bombusbee fairly quickly. I'll update with better pics later on.

    That's being good real family! have a great time! .. Going myself tomorrow on my day off at my local theater, can't wait!

    I just bought the mechanic after thinking about it for a few days. It went up 500yen since then. I waited too long to get the early deals but at least I'll have it. This will be the only DX I'll likely buy, it's nice, but I'll just stick to eventually buying all the HMR to match my original HM ones and call in a day. I had to watch the comparison review by scorched earth on YT to decide as I was tempted to just get a used 1/48 Yamato for half the price. I did pre-order from Ami-Ami the Arcadia 1/60 rerelease that's coming out in February. Done buying toys in 2023🤠😭

    Well you could always try and convince her it's both of yours hobby together while saying to her every time the collection gets bigger so does your heart for her . It's not just a toy collection but a symbol of your unbreakable love for her. You do it all for her 😊
  20. Spark-O-Matic
    That's a great idea! 🙂 maybe add in Woodland Camo and Urban Camo too.

    I've discovered while playing COD on my days off work that most people who like the new movies did not even know MM2 & MM3 Beyond Thunderdome even existed. MM3 I thought represented some of the best of the 80's movie . I think the studio should rerelease them restored in 8K at theaters . they might do really well?

    Spider Girl Vs. Wind Girl fight to the death
  23. Spark-O-Matic
    Nice! still have her on my want list. It might be the last Big Firebird Fembot after the 4th party came out.
  24. Spark-O-Matic
    Thinking about buying this but its kinda scary how the legs come off. with modern CAD & AI surely they could have created a better transformation? I did not know the Valk 1/48 were a 2pc design until now. I better decide soon the price keeps going up.

    Yamato is still ahead of its time
