I can't see the last 3 but it seems each of them has their unit ranking ( vf marking?). Edit: Oops. Even the VF-31's have unit ranks.
-
The only variation (besides color and insignia's) I see is the Lead one has pointed front wing tips and the others do not. Also, the 2 VF-31's with Insignia's also have double head lasers.
-
I bet there will be more Frontier or Macross 30 stuff at Tamashii Nations. Probably the supers for Rod and some other stuff besides Delta.
-
If that weapons container turns into a surfboard I'm out.
-
All I know is I hope that gold (silver for the others) or whatever that is don't scratch off.
-
I don't think there is a Armored Fokker version but only the 1st Arcadia release VF-1S Fokker with display stand.

Macross Δ (Delta) - announcement thread

Does AKB0048 count? -
That would be interesting. Make everyone think it's a warm hearted series then BOOM! 180 degrees in the 1st episode. (Just going with the what the anime series did) You still gonna need to get those 6 drakens. Each of those green/silver ones got their own markings.

Macross Δ (Delta) - announcement thread
wmkjr replied to renegadeleader1's topic in Movies and TV Series
Looks like the one from Frontier to me. It doesn't have just the gatlings like the zero one. Hmm, modified regults, glaugs, and destroids. Maybe a reason to expand to the DX line? j/k -
Macross Δ (Delta) - announcement thread

6 on 5? No fair! The head reminds me of the VF-0 zeke-ish. -
I'd say the only thing he can do is wait till release time and look at places like NY or others that undervalue the declarations to see if they have some in stock. MOst of the other places are already closed for PO.
-
Did you arrange those parts on the runners or is it the program that does it automatically?
-
Ouch! 8200¥ shipping estimate via EMS for 2.
-
You know what they say " A PO a day keeps your $$$ away ". 2 valks via Fedex would probably be the same 4700yen. One thing I find interesting about Fedex shipping is the shipping routes. I had to wait an extra 2 days because the package went to the hub here, then the mainland, then back here to the warehouse then out for delivery. I guess they do that for efficiency?
-
If it helps I ordered 2 0A's , a Vilikiss, 5 different modeling tweezers and tools, and the VF-22 Master files book and the shipping via fedex was 5370yen.
-
Hmm, I forgot about that. I ordered one 0A and it was 2800yen via Fedex. So NY and BIJ is almost comparable pricing wise.
-
Their shipping prices are pricey though. The 0S was 15% off I believe. But the shipping prices via EMS wasn't worth it for me. I think it was 6800yen for 2 via EMS.
-
It's still 27K, which was the tentative price from Arcadia. It's just a matter of which online retailers, if any, will give a discount. Going by HLJ and the preorder discount reduction from the 0-A to the 0-S I'm guessing maybe a 5% discount (not including tax added) might be the most we'll see from anyone, if that. Edit: Unless Big in Japan or Nippon Yasan pulls some kinda magic strings.
-
Amiami usually includes the Japan domestic tax then the discount. That's the way they do it, I'm just the messenger. Plus Arcadia's site says tentatively 27K so maybe it can change?
-
Shattered hopes and dreams. Nah, there are some cases of the hip joint becoming loose from the socket and maybe some paint scratching in certain areas and the usually tight feet and leg tabs.
-
I meant that in jest, but it sucks that the labor costs leads to cuts in what Arcadia can do.
-
They have the money. They're just not paying the workers to put on the decals that folks want. I think they're gonna do a ghost set down the line even though the originals were shelf warmers. Maybe with tweaked styling/proportions and shallower panel lines and different color shading. Wait, I just described the VF-0 series.
-
I'm guessing 100pcs only? How many SDF-1's was re-released?
-
So it's about the same asking price as when the Yamato one was released but due to the current exchange rate (for US folks) it's turns out to be cheaper than the Yamato version. Hopefully it can bring in folks who missed the first one.
-
Yes! Gotta figure out how much to get. Thanks for the heads up! Now to figure out how to afford them! I hope this release helps Arcadia out for future releases.
