Awesome stand and nice pics!
-
I just got mine in from Amiami. This one came in fast! They shipped it out Saturday (the 29th their time) via EMS. I haven't opened it up yet, but here are some box pics. The images on the top and bottom panels are exactly the same.

Wow HLJ updated the name to YF-29, Trollololol...
-
HLJ has done order limits in the past. Not sure why they did not enforce it this time, but rather have an inconsistent item name. Okay explains the Page Monitor's difference b/w the original and changes.
-
The other reason why it prob sold out quick at HLJ was because the limit was set to 10 units.
-
That's true... the USA has horrible ISPs when compared to other countries.
-
I'm assuming they are using some sort of bot or script. That would have to be the only explanation, lol.
-
LOL HS re-opened then closed in like 5 secs. Didnt even have enough time to click on the reserve button.
-
Yea I liked the head from the game renders, but something seems just a little off from the way it was implemented by bandai.
-
The head looks way busy. A little bit of a turn off: Source: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bandai-DX-Chogokin-Macross-YF-29-Durandal-Ozma-Lee-Variant-/291071899431

The no steps are on both wings in the picture of the high speed mode. You just have to look real closely. If they're normal stickers that's not a problem. It'll just take an hr or so to trim and apply them. However, if they're tampo... that would be awesome! A display stand that could display all the missile armaments would be excellent, but that probably would never happen.

There's no flip down visor. The front looks kind of like a pirate hat.
-
Sweet!
-
Nice!
-
Excellent! Could always rough up the surface with some light grit sand paper.
-
I'm one of the few who have been saying this whole time... that gloss ftw! Even in the scene where Guld realizes he was wrong and thinks he just killed off Isamu. The bottom of the YF-19 glimmers/reflects/flashes light twice. Sorry, but I'm too lazy to look up the screen shots, lol.

I was going to suggest Games Workshop Citadel Purple Ink, but I haven't been keeping up with GW products in the past five years and it seems like they don't carry inks anymore.

I got the two I ordered from NY on Monday (it was suppose to get dropped off by USPS Sat, but noone was home). I opened both and inspected them. One is a bit cleaner than the other, but both however are more clean in builds than any of the previous YFs/VFs I've gotten from Bandai. The swivels on the wings have been tightened up since the YF-29 30th and Alto's versions, but on one of the Isamus the left is just a little looser than the other (yet still tigher than the 30th and Alto ver). I would like to put one of the Isamus out on display, but its just a shame the fastpacks/superparts aren't out for it yet. I think some of the mis-transformations are due to Bandai's method with packing the valks. The plastic sheet which is placed between the valk and styrofoam tray prevents the valk from sitting flush in the corners of the styrofoam tray causing the wings to pop or unclip. This was an issue with both of mine.
-
Yup, got the tracking number for my order already as well.
-
I'm sure Kawamori didn't intend for it to be entirely 'that flat' and a little more curved like the pieces on the VF-25, YF-29 and even the VF-17 & VF-171. Since the YF-30 was based off the game model I'm guessing they got a bit lazy with the 3D model and went with a flat polygon.
-
I still don't like what they did with the chest: It looks like a poorly designed flat plastic flap that folds out. In the display piece it looks like it was folded out too much.
-
Yes! Yes! Shiny!
-
I'm not liking the the uni-chest panel cover on it. It looks like a flat piece of plastic that's completely out of place.
-
Yea I posted a couple of pages back. Mine from HS was re-taped on one end. However, no issues with the VF-25A.
-
I'm guessing Bandai got the partial hint regarding their mistake with the CF VF-171. The VF-25A that I received is pretty much flawless other than the fact it was a little mis-transformed when packed in the box. Not only that the VF-25A that I received from HS was a double taped box... I'm thinking that Bandai made sure their QA was good this time around.
