  1. Yes looks like mine are shipping today. Very excited to get them, these are very nice VF-1 models. I hope they will be producing more down the road

    Hi-Metal R

    They have been somewhat steadily releasing HMR stuff from other IPs. In addition to the world covid situation, Bandai probably didn't want to have Macross releases across two different lines once the 1/48 DX came out. I am still holding out hope for more Macross HMR. Definitely hoping for Destroids if nothing else. That upcoming Dragonar sure is a sharp looking figure.
  3. I opted for the PF. The normal version looks great but I am really looking forward to the Premium Finish treatment.
  4. I believe it was originally present on Roy's Valkyrie in the TV series but added to the others in the movie. I may be incorrect and getting toys mixed up with show canon
  5. The VF-1S definitely looks improved over the 1J. The rivets look better and the screen isn't as obnoxious. No skull and crossbones symbol behind the cockpit though. Would be cool if the Kitzconcept figures fit in there
  6. I found myself rather underwhelmed when adding the Super Parts to Roy's VF-1S in fighter mode. Could not get the arms to tab in and hold the gunpod up at the right angle. Hadn't tried the display stand yet...so that's a bummer how it lines up there too. Otherwise they look really nice and it's great to have proper red tipped missiles. I will have to display it in Gerwalk or Battroid for less annoyance.
  7. This is a nice surprise. Looking forward to an upgraded 1S figure. Kitzconcept said the GBP would be available for preorder soon on their Facebook page. There was no mention of this one coming
  8. This just happened to me too. Was just telling my proxy that I am fairly sure I got scammed on this auction and suddenly there it is. I had already bought a replacement so now there's a spare coming that will be for sale when it arrives.
  9. That same thing happened to me on Christmas Eve. Just got both garage door springs replaced this morning - it was $250. I wasn't about to pay emergency holiday call out rates for it. Luckily one car was outside the garage
  10. Same here. They should ship sometime this upcoming week
  11. This is my favorite alternate paint scheme. I have a spare yellowed Yamato GBP and VF-1 that I want to paint up like this. Someday I will get an airbrush and a place to paint
  12. Yep just got my From Japan order failure/cancellation notice email too
  13. They will let you know either way. My order with them is still pending Zen market failed to get me one and haven't heard from From Japan. Given my near perfect failure record with them and Bandai pre-orders, I got one from Kuramatoys and one from Okiniland since everybody seems happy with their service.
  14. Speaking of markup. https://kuramatoys.com/dx-chogokin-vf-1d-valkyrie-fun-racer/
  15. No, sorry that was poorly worded. I think it was cancelled and my money returned within a few hours of the preorder going live.
  16. I put one through too just to see, noting the release date and time. Half expecting it to get bounced back. From Japan may just hit their 6 order limit with Bandai quickly. My Kakizaki order was cancelled when those released
  17. That's what they told me for shipping two sets to Ohio.
  18. Bandai'd. I think I saw a marking or two like this on one of my DX figures too What's the safest way to remove a small section of tampo like this?
  19. The post office finally managed to deliver my custom VF-1S Max from @Red Comet Apparently the postal service has a three week backlog on packages near where I live. I am just happy that this wasn't lost or destroyed! My photography doesn't do it justice.
  20. Awesome group picture @Alan Molina!
  21. Yeah I would much rather have my custom Max figure. This is the one I was looking forward to the most. Of all the Macross toys I had shipped this year - why did it have to be the irreplaceable one? Will keep you posted
  22. @Kanedas BikeYour Max looks great! I am fairly sure the post office lost mine in transit .
  23. I am hoping for a VF-1D as well. It would look amazing made by Calibre Wings. These 1/72 VF-1 models are a very nice representation of the Valkyrie. The elevator looks great too, but I don't have any room to display one.
