Nice! Just recently picked up the 19 add on parts but I need a YF-21.

The decal sheet for the VF-19 model kit has a lot of large, obnoxious FIRE BOMBER decals. I'm glad Bandai showed some restraint for the DX.

Paypal, HLJ, Bandai, etc. use a crappier exchange rate and pocket the difference if you pay in another currency. Like the above post said: always pay in yen. If you buy a lot of stuff from Japan, it's best to use a CC that has zero foreign transaction fees.

Just bought the last copy at HLJ with a coupon. I have the original 0A release but I wanted an updated copy that won't scratch the canopy during transformation and though the leg hasn't fallen off yet on my original, I'd prefer to have one where I don't have to worry about it all. I'm sure there will be additional restocks (it's already been in discontinued status and restocked at least once since release). UPDATE: And within minutes of this post, HLJ updated the 0A from "discontinued" to "restock in 3-5 days."

Reissues at a large markup for toys that the small & diehard Macross fanbase would have already purchased years ago. Also, Delta was just a terrible show. Frontier was a much better show, but its toy line is well over a decade old now and really needs to be rebuilt from scratch. And of course we can't get any OG Macross stuff directly thanks to a certain money laundering operation posing as a, uh, production studio? I'm not even sure what they are at this point.

It's a reissue and not only is it limit 1 per person, but when you buy it they take your picture at the store and use facial recognition software to make sure you're not leaving and repeatedly coming back to buy more copies. So it's not really something you can scalp all that easily without an army of scalpers.- 487 replies

That is so awesome. Sadly, we live in the age of short term gains and private equity where once great companies get hollowed out and stripped of everything so a few rich a-holes can get richer. Hmmm that sure sounds familiar... oh well, that's a discussion for a different forum.

Love the low vis!

Picked one of these up from the TN store. They had plenty in stock. #nomarkup

Completely forgot about this preorder. Still available at HLJ so I picked one up. This is the way preordering should be.

I'll get a copy, but while it looks a different, I don't see anything that makes it clearly better than Yamato's version. Let's see if Bandai actually gives us white landing gear like on the HMR. I'm willing to put money on them being unpainted diecast. Knowing Bandai we'll probably get just the standing Basara figure and no sitting figure for the cockpit.
-
There will probably be plenty on Mandarake after release.
-
Ugh at that price definitely sticking to one. I'll just have to be satisfied with my Yamato version.
-
Oh I haven't messed with the sound booster yet so I didn't know the holes were for that. Seems kinda janky to me when pretty everything is just a copy of the Yamato 19.

Was expecting this since the VF-19 has holes in its shoulders for the 19P speaker pods.
