Not anymore. They raised the price to 11800.

I'm sure it'll buff right out.

Plenty of letters left in the alphabet.

If you're basing your decision to buy the toy on the quality of a Macross Delta story, then I'll assume you're not getting one.

NY finally rolled over and died. About time. Glad I jumped ship long before the Kairos debacle and subsequent blatant mass-scamming. Where are the NY-defending fanboys now?

The arm cannons point downward if you seat the arms all the way inside the wings. Great job, Bandai!

More valkyries have made their way into my house.

I still haven't gotten any notification from Amiami for mine.

Just got home and had a chance to open my 31AX. Overall she's a beautiful bird. A nice step up from the 31 line. Just a few quick notes: The original 31 line had cockpits that were too small and pilots were squished up against the instrument panel. Now the pendulum has swung the other way: cockpits that are way too big for the pilots. It's pushing DX VF-1 levels of oversized cockpits/undersized pilots. Bandai cheaped out and painted the forward sensors on instead of giving us clear parts. I actually like the Walkure stand. Not because of the Walkure logo but because it's a nice white stand that looks better than the regular old hex stand. Noticed that the box was a step down from the premium boxes we got with the original 31 line. And freaking styrofoam again? After the much better plastic trays with the VF-1 and YF-29? F U Bandai. Anyway, those are just minor quibbles. She's a sweet valk and I'm going to have some fun whooshing her around.

Out for delivery on the DHL truck! Always super excited when we get a new valk model (i.e. not a recolor).

Bandai continuing its long tradition of never finishing a lineup.

I tried opening the ankles once but even after removing the (incredibly tight) screw, I couldn't get the halves of the ankle to budge.

Just received a $250 Amazon gift card from work and wondering what to spend it on...

Methinks @no3Ljm doth protest too much.

I wouldn't pay 200 when I got the Arcadia versions for only slightly more than that back in the day.

Sure hope it's sold worldwide!

That's not canon!

Got a notice from Amiami that Basara and Mylene were pushed back to January 2022.

HMR 0S going to cost more than Yamato's 1/60 0S at MSRP.

I'm pleased we're getting something other than another VF-1, though I still wish they would finish, well, any VF-1 squadron. What a perverse train of thought.

What did you do with the spare Roy pilot figure?

That looks like a great purchase. How much do those guys run?

Great pose!

I'm interested, but only if they came with the life size Sheryl and Ranka.

HLJ comes out to $378 based on the Ivanov unit with DHL shipping. A whole dollar cheaper than Amazon! Woohoo!
