Very nice VF-1D. Thanks for sharing. (launching new browser tab to search for one on eBay......) -
It looks too good to pass. The 1A head and the blue/white contrast makes me drooling. I really hope I will be lucky with the PO.
-
Thanks for the update. I appreciate knowing what to expect if I ever need to deal with a return to amazon.jp.
-
I might buy it from you for customization or weathering project. Let me know if you really decided to sell.

I also expect that I will like fighter mode the best, but after having it on hand and try out gerwalk and battroid mode, I didn't expect to find that both of them looks so nice. I might like them more (much more) than fighter mode. That was a total surprise for me.

Is that VF-25 1/100 scale? Looks nice, where can I get one? Edit: NV, saw Tekering's reply. It is a VF100 line.

So sorry to hear about this and really hope the CDJ one will be perfect. My copy from Amazon.jp also has a small defect. Not as serious as yours. A mark was left on the bronze metallic paint on one of the shins. It looks like the part was press against something before the paint is fully dried. I have been trying to match the paint color with Tamiya dark copper, but it was too light/yellow. Need a bit of dark brown maybe. Alcad copper is too red.

Just ordered. Thanks.
-
Can anyone help with getting one of this? Taking over PO?
-
I think my problem is that I am very complacent about returning items. Spoiled by Amazon US and other US online and physical store. I have to be mindful of different policies when shopping outside of US.
-
Wow..... From now on, I will consider very carefully when I buy any items from Amazon.jp.
-
Thanks for the info about shipping rate. Seems fair. Will do that. Too bad. Will just use NinNin then.
-
I forget the exact date. It was a while back, at the same time I saw a few others complain about the same thing here in this thread.
-
HLJ canceled my PO. Does nin-nin charge high shipping like NY? Wonder if I should PO with them now or wait.
-
I see. Was wondering if it was done by some disassembly.

How does one go about painting the landing gear?

Just received a VF1A super. I almost break the hand cover on the arm when I was holding the arm firmly (on the wrong spot) when trying to remove and insert a new hand. That cover has very limited support under it so any pressure from the top will break it on the hinge. There is now a visible stress mark at the seams near the hinge and it has cracked from inside. The cover was only hanging on with only less than half of the original thickness of the plastic. I was lucky that it didn't break right through. Gingerly pry it open and applied some plastic weld at the cracked seams and sort of weld it back together. Will ignore the stress mark on the outside for now (not super visible is you are not looking for it). For good measure, I added some extra support to the inside seams by welding a small "beam" to that corner with the hinge.

Thank you so much for the pdf!

Good point about weathering. Will be careful about going down that route. Thanks for the pointer. -

@tekering I blame you for the urge to panel line and weather this every time I look at it. I have a few older 1/100 Glaug kit. Maybe that will be a good donor for some extra decal. There are tons of after market macross decal on ebay but not for the bad guys. -

This guy arrived today and starting to terrorize the toynami Milia.

I see. 500 Yen is a good price for this. Wish I can find it.
-
Too bad.

Does this come with the clear plexiglass fighter mode stand/holder that is in the 30th-anniversary version? Is there any way to buy those stand on its own? They are cool and easy to use. It is such a simple stand if I can figure out the shape, might be able to DIY a few for my valks.
