Looking for a 1/20 strike Valk unbuilt.  Have cash, vintage Robotech stuff, arcade machines, transformers.... Lol, a bunch of stuff for trade.  

Also looking for the decals and weapon set. 

Once you send it off to get printed by some of the art guys they add it to their files. 

Hey all!  Looking for a hi-quality scan of the US release of Super Spacefortress Macross.  I have the Japanese instruction card but lost my NOS original Fabtek card.  

Little late to the party but great trade with @VF-1A Cannon Fodder.  My item arrived fast and safe and I hope you enjoy the model!

@RHunterVF1SI PM'ed you an imgur link to a high-res scan of the Marquee. It's the only part of the arcade I've got. 

Thank you so much!!!  I had a NOS marquee and instruction card for the US release but I accidentally threw away the tube they were in.  Getting this printed up for my cabinet.  

I have the originals for Macross Plus and Macross II if you need them. 

@jvmacross any chance I could get a scan of the instruction card? 

@rick.vale @jvmacross

Would you guys be willing to hi-resolution scan the Fabtek marquee and instruction card for me?  I would love to have those for my collection and machine. 

Thanks,

The market value on these things is absolutely bonkers.  Some of them cost as much as their DX 1/48 counterparts.

I was in Japan and I found a 1/60 Strike Roy V2 BNIB for less that an HMR Roy at another shop.  I don't get the appeal, they aren't that much cheaper than something way bigger and more detailed.  

At this very moment, I'm looking online and I see a VF-1J GBP HMR for ¥28,000 and they have the Arcadia VF-1J GBP 1/60 for ¥23,370, and nevermind the fact that the 1/60 was on sale last week for ¥18,000.

 

I agree with you.  The only reason I got into the line was the tease of the enemy mecha and space issues.  I love my valks but can't justify the space having the collection I wanted to have.  I can fit double the amount of 1/100 in the same space as I can my 1/60's.  

Not to mention having a Monster, destroids, and Zentraedi mecha in the same scale and quality.  

I hope Bandai releases more but I understand the basics of the business.  With the market how it is worldwide why invest the money on all new molds for 1/100 Macross stuff.  They have the 1/48 and they can just repaint that multiple times and milk the mold.  

Question for the group since the HMR Roy was brought up.  Does anyone happen to have an extra complete Roy HMR box and inserts laying around?  I bought mine second hand but it was missing the box.  

All, just an FYI, but your local comic or Collectible store can order you stands now through Previews.  I ordered 5 and didn't realize they were 2-packs so 10 total stands.  Just an FYI in case anyone needs them. 

I would love some Valks in the new paint scheme and head designs from Macross the First. 

Selling my Arcadia Roy Fokker Movie version I had purchased new and displayed in a glass case in smoke free home.  No decals applied and never transformed, the legs and arms only moved to apply strike armor, and landing gear lowered.  No issues with the model just selling as I replaced it with the premium version and don't need 2 of them. 

Asking $250 plus shipping (paypal friends and family or add 4% for fees)

Hey guys, working on a project and I need a particular picture to help wrap it up.  I am working on my Macross Arcade machine and really want the picture from the Macross Museum as my side art.  I have not been able to find either a physical copy of this image or a high quality copy online.  If anyone can help me I would appreciate it. 

As excited as I am for the Vf2 and the vf1's from Delta. I really would like some destroids and am I the only one that would like a 1/100 gnerl?

For those in the US that aren't ordering multiple items (and thus saving on shipping from the usual vendors), Amazon has some pretty competitive prices on the VF-1A CF and the TV Hikaru VF-1J:

They also have the cheapest Glaugs I've seen (I got mine a week ago, and love it, definitely give it a look if you're at all interested in enemy mecha):

Has anyone tried the Amazon.jp otaku thing? I keep seeing posts about it on Facebook but haven't really looked into it. Supposedly, you can shop certain Japanese sellers with reduced shipping and stuff.

Better than snakes...

10 days and my VF-1A is finally clear to leave Japan. This has been my longest wait just to get to this point.

Did you order from Mykombini?

I emailed them and they said shipping was going to be the 10th.

maybe one of the board's resident genius guys can make an easy cool fix for that and put it up on shapeways?

I would be open to buying them separately if bandai would do it. That gap is really annoying knowing my new ones will not have it.

A Monster came to visit today...

Will the Bandai Action Bases for the Gundam stuff work with these?

Too bad that launch arm isn't available.

make one. You can get Adruino products to make it into a working Tablet too

Would you mind explaining that a little more? You have me very interested.

Darkarchon3000, I found a picture of the kit on the web. That is what I want. Thank you, now i just have to find one for sale.

Yes!!! That is it. I couldn't find a pic earlier but just found this one from the museum. So probably a one-off piece just for that then.

There was a vinyl one included with the old Tsukuda Hobby 1/6 Misa kit.

1/1 or 1/6? I am assuming it was 1\6. looking for something to display with my helmet and shoulder pad/armor.

Admins, please move if I posted in the wrong area.

Was wondering if a 1/1 kit has ever been made of the datapad that Misa finds in DYRL? I can't find the picture now but it was either a possible kit or a picture from the Macross museum where there was a 1/1 replica.

Thanks

Hey guys,

Working on a project and I need line drawings, pre-production images, and what not of the Uniforms and flight suits from DYRL. I especially need any drawings or images of the flight suit and the arm and leg armor. If you have any scans please PM me and I will give you my email address if you can share them.

Also looking for the Hikaru 1/6 scale figure in the flight suit if you have one for sale for reference.

Thanks,

-R
