Great pics as always, Saburo! Looking at Roy's VF-0S, I really wish they redo that after 0D is released.

This is great news! 2016? Even better! More time to save dough for new Valks.

Can't wait for pre-order madness.

The vf-25s is getting reissued? Damn I bet I am going to miss out again.

Yup. PO madness was open for a 'glitch' (half a sec) via Amiami couple of months ago. Hehehe. Got a chance to PO days after it went up by $40 over NY. PO went for awhile after that over Play-Asia, I believe. I have another PO with them though I doubt I'll get one.

Don't worry! With Arcadia, you won't miss out. If you want you could just place an order with HLJ and easily cancel it if you need to before it ships.

Wait. Can I do that? The reason why I don't want to PO while not having a work temporarily is because I don't want my account somehow get blocked from those online shops. Does HLJ have a strict rule on blocking accounts if you cancel PO with them? Thanks.

Ex-Gear Alto Saotome. Panel lined using Tamiya Panel Line Accent Grey.

Great purchases everyone!

Wow! Truly, a masterpiece MacrossJunkie. How's the coat so far? Does it get scratches everytime you move the wing to fast mode? And have you transformed this one after applying those decals, effects, and topcoat?

But still, superb piece.

Oh man... after looking on the new pics I want to have one. I know I said before that I'm just going to wait for a renewal 0S. But with those new pics...

Too bad, can't PO now. Have to look for a new job first. *sigh* If ever I get a new job in the next couple of months and PO is still open in January, I might get one as well. Oh well, good thing I already paid my DX VF-25S reissue. Hahaha and Huhuhu as well.

That one reminds me of Calvin. It's like what Calvin looks like when painted by Alex Ross.

Ooh, I really like how you've got the YF-30 posed here. That's interesting how you have the wings bent SV-51 style; does the in-game YF-30 actually have the same "flapping" wings as the SV-51?

Thanks Keiichi. I like it too. That's how I like my YF-30. And no, this 'flapping' wings is not featured in the game. Only from display as what close313 said.

Great photo mate! The 30 looks great in Gerwalk! might have to find a 3rd one so I can display one in each mode! I love how the wings crop up like that! like its ready to strike at its next unsuspecting prey!

Thanks spanner76. I like the YF-30 in Gerwalk mode. Though I'm not using the rotating pelvic joint for 2 reasons. One, I like the more traditional/default look. And B, I don't want to use the brackets. Hehehe. And go get another one so you'll have all modes in display.

Got another 15% Off from Rakuten Shop via FromJapan so I ordered another one. $25 before service and shipping fee.

Now I can display both modes.

Latest obsession possessions.

More pics to come.

Loving your Red and Black stripe motif. Most of my valks are those as well. Well, except for that extra 2 YF-30. Hehehe.

You're probably right, but one can hope and dream for a <$300 SRP.

-b.

True. That's why I also need to prepare if ever Arcadia will release a VF-0S renewal next.

I only got one in Gerwalk. Too bulky too fit with the rest.

Love the shot. So intimidating.

Nice pics no3ljm! Love those Gerwalk poses!

Thanks wmkjr! I also realized that I forgot to change to Alto's white hands when I'm taking photos in Gerwalk mode. Love the white hands for Chronos.

Nice shots no3ljm!

Thanks Saburo! Coming from you, it's an honor.

Wow, amazing pics everyone.

Saburo, killer as always. TCracker, really cool to see something different. No3ljm, lovely Kronos shots. MJ, that is such an awesome group shot - and +2 on your Flickr page being amazing.

On the downside, all these great photos are making me want to fiddle with my Yetistands and take more photos myself. So watch out for more pic spamming and apologies in advance

Thanks Old Man! Looking forward on your photo spamming.

And it's gone again at HLJ.

Same thing with Kanedas Bike and Saburo, staying up late and hoping to get a preorder for a tenth of a second. And right now the single toy I remember for doing the most is purchasing my Holy (VF-4)Grail. (Thanks once again to Kanedas Bike. ) And that's dipping in my emergency pocket. Hahaha!

Thanks b! I love those guys! They're funny.

Ditto, nice additions to everyone's respective collections.

I do have stuff to share, but I'm feeling way too lazy to organize the items for a picture.

-b.

Me too. I have lots of Gundams and some old Revoltech figures laying around my work room. Hahaha!

Didn't notice that since I've never played the game, but I swapped the hands out for spare fixed pose ones from my Alto the first day I got mine. the white hands looks so much better (and hold stuff better too for some reason).

That's a really good idea with the hands. Thanks for sharing, its an obvious idea, but an idea that I never would have thought of.

True. The white hands looks better IMHO.

What do you guys think the odds are that they would release repaints of this in other colors? I haven't played Macross 30 so I don't know if those other colored versions are attached to any characters or not. If not, I think chances of repaints are very slim.

I've finished the game and I didn't see any characters used a recolored YF-30 afterwards. Only Leon. I assumed the recolor is just an added feature for the valk after you finished the game and play the new plus option. But it's really cool to see an actual purple one.

do many folks have their 30 in gerwalk?

I'm loving the Gerwalk. But I'm not using the pelvic joint feature. I'm happy with the more traditional look.

YF-30

I'm wondering about the cost and PO date.

Same here.

-b.

I'm curious as well even though I'm not planning to buy it right away. I think the best price to assume would be $300 and up. With all their releases, I doubt it will be around $250.

Great hauls everyone!

For now, I have nothing to share. Hehehe.

Great shots, master of macross. Master indeed.

Finally got around to my other jewel of my collection, Yamato's 1/3000 SDF-1 DYRL. I finished some time ago, but I hadn't had the chance to photograph it. It took me literally months to put on the hundreds of tiny decals to give this monster the scale it deserves (I don't think I'll do that again for the upcoming 1/4000 Hasegawa version )

Hope you enjoy...

For those of you who forgot my ordeal... here's the original build-up thread:

Loving that SDF-1. Wish I could also have the same besides the upcoming SD Makurosu.

Ha, ha - NO!

And honestly I hope I'll be back on the hunt soon to buy another one, but that may be a couple of months down the road.

-b.

Hahaha! Me too, b. I want to have another one too. But I will just wait if Arcadia will release a reissue or the Flashback version. If not, I'm just happy and still happy that I've acquired one.

Just finished up my 25F Tornado pack and put them on my re-re-issue 25F.

*snip

Thanks guys!

Did a shot with SMS Skull squadron geared up. I'm kinda bummed because I noticed that the stupid shield adapter for the RVF must have fallen off at some point while it was in fighter mode and now I can't find it... sigh... I had to stick the shield on with putty instead

*snip

I think it would be remiss of me to leave out pics of them together in my favorite mode.

*snip

Those are eye candy, MacrossJunkie. Really envy people who does great job on customizing their Valks. And it still transforms well with dings and scratches.

Yup, wish I ordered one more. The pic I took would work better if I had 1 more YetiStand.

*snip

Great shot wmkjr! Love it!

Because everyone loves Ozma.

*snip

As always, Saburo bro, great photos. I'm loving the Ozma now. But will just settle for the Messiah for now. Durandal, not as much. Hehehe.

Nice photo composition, TCracker.

hi, i was looking for old files on my pc backup and found some images of my first 1/48 purchase back in 2008, it was the stealth type. now i think that looks better without stickers. took 62 photos that day, but dont worry will only post 3, one of each mode

Everytime I see a 1/48 scaled Valk, I'm having thoughts if I should get atleast one. But I know that if I started doing it... I need to have another one. And so on and so forth.

Great photos! Can't wait to see it in person.
