  1. I was able to figure it out. The joint was extremely tight... I was careful not to apply too much force while pulling and finally the joint got loose somehow. Love the sv-262, but wow, that was stressful!
  2. Thanks for doing this for all these years! I appreciate all the efforts in maintaning something like this. It was really helpful to have and save me a lot of time.
  3. I was able to transform mine in battroid mode, but to transform it back in fighter, the arms dont want to lift before rotation. it seems tight, perhaps stuck. any advice? (i check anymoon's video, but his copy seems to be looser than mine)
  4. It's tough, but I easily understand the urge. This is my first sdf - missed on the first release and secondary market was just insane. It feel just like when I got the vf-4g. Looking forward to x-mas morning...
  5. Got a huge box from hlj. Now can I wait for x-mas?
  6. Neat trick: beware since only higher priced item is shown by store. If you click on any store, you will see if they have another at a lower price. They should just display all prices, that would be more fair. SAHRA has the draken for 14k yens https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1072017608&ref=doc
  7. Same here. I will perhaps get a VF-31J - if I can find one on sale.
  8. I got this last week, and while transformation is tough, it is very intuitive. Had a lot of fun transforming it... Nice valk! Perhaps I will get the white one - there is one in delta, right?, depending on the price. Edit: white one look sweet. Let hope for a dx release. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10470832/20/1
  9. Congrats, it is very nice!
  10. I got mine yesterday... It's been a while since I swosh around with a macross toy. I love the shape of the wings. I know it's for transformation, but I could not refrain myself to use them as movable wings.
  11. Thanks for sharing... it's very informative!
  12. 3 x 4G on jungle http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=116&do=detail&id=101000050046
  13. I have both and enjoyed them equally. My advice would be keep your YF-30. As stated above, you can probably find a 4G for a decent price. Even the Yamato one can be found cheaper than it was. Is the YF-30 becoming the new 4G (from what I read on the forums upon release)?
  14. I am late in the game, but I ordered one through Jungle. I was hesitant between this one and the Bandai VF-171 (Alto, perhaps)... In the end, I might end up with both. The bot mode seems very imposing and my VF-19 needed some company. BTW, very nice pics of the VF17D, congrats!
  15. I am unsure if it was already posted. I found out here is a third sortie for Hidetaka Tenjin's Valkyrie book scheduled in sept. http://hlj.com/product/KOB90215
  16. This version and the upcoming EVA version are very interesting... Looks good, congrats!
  17. No problem... I would settle on any variations!
  18. SDF-1 1:3000... That would be awesome! ;-)
  19. Difficult to resist with all the praise from the online reviews. I am holding on for the MPP10 EVA version.
  20. Yeah, I got lucky! ;-) Sad to see that on the yf-19 as well. Normally, I don't really mind, but this makes me try to rub it off.
  21. I got mine yesterday! Very happy, but I quite surprised about the bold copyright and made in China printing on the back of the wings. A more subtle printing would have been nice on a 200$ toy.
  22. Final update: got the shoulder hinge from Shapeways. I had some filing to do since I choose black metal and the material has a very rough finish (not recommended). Thanks again to ChaoticYeti for this amazing work.
