The shoulder joints are good so far. I haven't done much to work them out, of course. Time will tell but I think they'll hold up.

Yeah it comes with a sticker sheet.

Stuck mine together and snapped a few quick pics. I didn't read the manual so I'm not 100% sure if I have everything securely fastened. She's a real beast though! I don't think even Ozma's armor was this beefy. Missiles are the same kind of pinkish white as newer Arcadia valks, as already noted. I'd like to add some decals and panel detailing one of these days. The 31J is a puny kicker versus the RA linebacker!
-
Thanks! I used mainly Hasegawa decals, but also used some HiQ decals and self-printed ones. She's finally here! Will post some suited up pics a little later.
-
Yeah that's just really pathetic. Preparing a shipment should not take as long as the actual SAL transit time.
-
RA on the Fedex truck for delivery, so I finally liberated my second 0S from the package in preparation. I'd forgotten just how, er, clean it looks out of the box. Also forgot what an ordeal it was to open the rear landing gear bay doors...
-
Such lovely valkyries wasted on such a terrible show.
-
Geez so how long did it take from preparation to finally going out the door?
-
If they're going to complete Fire Bomber, I'd like to see the boob valkyrie first!

I used to be like Graham regarding HLJ but they've turned things around. NY may have a cheaper initial preorder price, but the ability to ship nearly $400 of merchandise for about $40 and have it here in a few days and the fact that HLJ actually ships stuff out in a timely manner makes HLJ a way better choice than NY. RA arrives tomorrow. Can't wait! Time to break out my other 0S. Correction to an earlier post: I got my second 0S discounted as "damaged box" box item from AmiAmi. The "damaged box" I received was in even better condition than my first one.
-
It looks way better without the tacky red markings.
-
That already happened.
-
Forgot to add that while I felt rather lukewarm when I received the 0A, I was super excited about receiving the 0S. What a difference a head and palette swap makes!
-
Is that a Gundam?
-
I can understand where Mr cheng is coming from regarding wanting to detail up your valks and not having time to do so. Of course Bandai valks may have more printing, but it's not like they come out of the box washed and weathered either. And Bandai prices are climbing pretty high too. On a side note I picked up my second 0S during a Hobby Search sale, so I think I paid around 24k yen for it. And I recall the 0A being discounted as low as $160 on HLJ. I should have waited!

Looks more like she's going to eat it.
-
For a second I thought that was a screenshot from a Japanese porno.
-
Please don't scour any of the painted surfaces.

Arcadia's 0S is one of the absolute best Macross toys ever released. I consider it a must-have for any serious Macross collector. The only downside is that Arcadia's releases are rather light on the tampo printing. Maybe we'll see a premium finish version someday?
-
It's probably just your brain lying to you again. It does that a lot. (A and B squares are the same color.)

Looked at 4 of my 6 25Fs and they don't exhibit any noticeable yellowing. As already noted the head lasers are a slightly different white plastic from the rest of the craft. The last two are still sealed. These reports of yellowing have compelled me to start work on at least one of them, a task I've been putting off for about... 5 years.
-
Mine arrives Thursday. Can't wait to suit up the 0S!
-
Can't wait till end of March. Always most excited about getting the first release of a new valkyrie design.

Hey why is this display on the right side blocking off that door? Is that the entrance to the Falldogcave? Are you secretly a vigilante who spends his nights beating criminals to a pull with his bare hands?
