  1. Hobby Search has it up for preorder now. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10316462
  2. Somehow I don't buy that, when we see the item sitting smack dab in the middle of other Hasegawa releases.
  3. Looks like my reply got displaced again, mobile foruming is really not the best way to go yet. Was actually replying to your earlier question of whether the Gerwalk kit seems too low priced
  4. Chas: Not really, when you consider that a 1/72 VF-1 Super/Strike kit is around the same price. Here's a sample: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10037736
  5. Head on over to the VF-1 Riders' FB page, they are a group in Japan that showcase a lot of custom VF works. The pics above look like they were from their page too. Check them out here: https://www.facebook.com/vf1riders EDIT: ninja'd yet again :-/
  6. The way Hasegawa is doing their releases right now, it isn't too far-fetched to see a separate Super/Strike pack (plus possibly some of the warheads from the Weapon Set set) Hey, one can dream!
  7. Limbo: Wow, that's quite a steep price for each of these... Guess I'm lucky enough to have been given one by a friend, same VF-1A as the one on your pic above.
  8. Weird that Amazon still doesn't have it listed at this time...
  9. And to the left of the Gerwalk article in that pic is the one for the weapon set. EDIT: ninja'd by Chas
  10. i am literally jumping for joy right now!! thanks for this nice news Jefuemon!! EDIT: And hurray for 123 posts!!
  11. that is if she doesn't run away in anger or abject terror of being connected to Macross for the Nth time... a sad fact really considering Macross was her stepping stone to being an artist...
  12. But the Hasegawa 1/72 VF-11B was released just last June... A VF-11D from Hasegawa though... this one will be sweet. And yeah, +1 on Hase hopefully releasing the Super Packs for these bad boys.
  13. Ah, so that poster came from the Gold book, I was wondering where it came from. I got mine from a neighbor in our previous place. He heard that I was a Macross nut, and sold me the poster for PhP 200 (US$1 = PhP35 or somewhere at that rate at that time). Was that a good deal? Assuming it was a legit poster...
  14. ^ @jasonc: i got a copy of that last poster (VF-1 cutaway schematic), same exact silver lineart on black background. it's a bit more crumpled than yours though. hoping to have it framed sometime so i can put it up properly EDIT: oh yeah, got 2 of the Ishtar posters too, from their respective VF-2SS kits...
  15. yeah, landing gears ought to be a no-brainer for fighter mode VF kits... Wave did it, and Bandai sure did it on their older kits (VF-2SS, VF-1 variants) and even the newer 1/72 MacF kits, so why not for 1/100 MacF kits right?
  16. Some new images of the upcoming 1/100 VF-25F Alto Custom kit from Bandai (click on each thumbnail to view bigger version): And some close up shots of the parts themselves showing the amount of surface detail: http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/3df7456a.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/3bdf9b5f.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/c1244662.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/a68ee739.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/51d94b0d.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/1fbc3e2c.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/8d3470dc.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/8d203059.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/5e55e083.jpg http://s51.photobucket.com/albums/f364/maverick_valquiff/Mecha/98a472ac.jpg Images are from GA Graphic via www.gundammodelkits.com
  17. Some preview pics of the 1/100 VF-25F Alto Custom: Source: Mecha Guy
  18. DURANDAL Valkyrie? Now Gundam SEED Destiny is gonna pop into my mind whenever I hear this valk called by its code name... (image courtesy of guNjap)
  19. I see that all the time on the expressway and I still failed to make the connection... So, can Big West sue DMCI now?
  20. hitched with a friend's credit card and we ordered one each of the fan racer thanks for posting this one bluemax!

    SCOOP thread!

    Spotted on www.gundammodelkits.com: From Hobby Japan January 2011 issue VF Hi-Metal VF-1 Valkyrie with Super Parts (planning stage) DX Macross F VF-25G Tornado Messiah Michael Complete Pack [19,500 Yen]
  22. PAINT will help protect the kit. DUST will make it look awful. And yes, even if you place the models in a glass enclosed display cabinet, dust will ultimately still accumulate unless your display cabinet is hermetically sealed. A well ventilated room (exhaust fans installed, etc.) will help minimize the dust on them models.
  23. Yeah, the GM Spartan does look better with the MG Nemo legs. For what it's worth, I didn't notice the gun was incomplete, as it gives off a high-tech shotgun-ish look
