Bought one even though I don't like this character and the color scheme is merely okay. I'm such a consumer whore. God forbid Bandai actually gives people what they want with the white 262. That would be scandalous!

They're model kits. https://www.hlj.com/1-100-scale-hg-vf-22s-sturmvogel-ii-maximillian-jenius-use-banh683441 https://www.hlj.com/1-100-scale-hg-vf-22s-sturmvogel-ii-milia-fallyna-jenius-use-banh683243 There is a Gamlin version too, but I believe it's a web exclusive item.

How nice of Bandai to pre-yellow it for us. Now we won't be disappointed ~5 years from now. Get the disappointment out of the way at the start!

What's so "limited" about this reissue besides the stand? Did it always come with missiles or did we have to buy the missile sets for those originally? (Mine's been in storage until I get more display cases.)

Now that's a fantastic pic that really shows off how good it looks in battroid! Unfortunately it doesn't fair so well in fighter. Like others have pointed out, the forward fuselage looks too small connected to its overiszed bulbous body. It's like they stuck the Yamato 1/72 nose on a 1/60 airframe.

You didn't miss much. Delta is the worst Macross series ever.

The figure was of Sheryl in a gothic lolita outfit, but in the movie it was worn by Alto.

Yup. Damn shame Bandai has a stranglehold on the license. I want an Arcadia VF-25...

Watch Bandai make it bigger than the 19. You can't complain because it's non-scale!

I would love to see an Arcadia PF YF-21. I love their PF YF-19 and it's the best version of that design, IMO.

HLJ somehow got 1 in stock for anyone who wants to play the Bandai QC roulette. https://www.hlj.com/dx-chogokin-yf-21-gard-gore-bowman-machine-banc655165

Reassembled the ostrich Wanted to do a side by side pic with the Yamato but it's a gigantic hassle to take the Yamato out of the Moducase and Yeti stand just for one pic, so I just stitched an old pic with the new.

A good portion of it is mechanical pencil. I'm so familiar with the VF-1 at this point that I can do through them pretty fast with a pencil. A few spots I used modeler's wash on. That's the thing about Bandai's DX. It's amazingly detailed with lots of tampo printing, but then they cut corners here and there that bring the appearance down, like the unpainted landing gear or tiny TV pilot figures. Then they forget to paint the wing lights on this release. Recent issues with damaged parts right out of the box only makes things worse. These are not things that should be happening when people are spending $250+ on a toy. I can only imagine the outrage in the Gundam community if Bandai released a Metal Build Gundam and decided to go with bare diecast feet instead of painting them red. Anyone interested in a Bandai-Namco brand hair dryer for fixing bent parts?

Like the HMR VF-2SS release, she looks great if you're looking down at her from above. However, from the side and bottom views, they're both quite thick.
