Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
raptormesh replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Thanks Mech for clearing that up. They do look alright side by side, though my fav is still the 21/22 as I like big wings and I cannot lie... =) -

Well I know the 21 is ~19m in length but no idea about the Draken III. However just by comparing the pilot sizes however usually Bandai's are on the small side, but this instance the difference is a bit more significant. -
She's here! Love the arrowhead design.

Just got my Draken delivered. Can't wait to transform it, but I got a feeling that scale is pretty off here... -
The monster is 35% off at CDJapan atm.

Ahh the curse of the black dot. One time I had to leave 4 or 5 of them in Gerwalk mode because of this issue. Took me 5 years before I got it right, pretty embarrassing. By the way, for a few legs that were too stubborn I took the thigh apart just by removing three screws and resetting the joint. Painless and quick.
-
The 17k is for a new unopened copy though :). Yeah hoping the bird's alright.
-
Ah, that's nice to know. Still, fingers crossed, bit of a gamble.
-
I found one opened, box damage for 10k on Mandarake. Just got shipped but I'm kinda worried it has defects or stained as the price is kinda low. Ugh the trepidation.
-
Thank you, glad they improved their tolerances and design.
-
Cheers mech, thanks for the links. Figured it'll be an exclusive to make it that much harder for me. Guess I'll check tamashii as well as I have access to a local address.

Missed out the first batch of Hase Kairos so only just pre-ordered one from Amiami. Hope bandai would do it as a transformable 1/72 as well. How are the kits nowadays compared to frontier where transforming is a bit of a pain and it falls a part pretty easily.
-
Thanks guys. Will have to keep an eye out then!
-
Has HLJ or amiami opened their pre-orders for Kairos? It's about the only Delta design I truly love.
-
This thread is sorely lacking the best bird . Seriously though having downsized a few times the past few years due to multiple moves/(single)marriage all your photos are hitting me with waves of nostalgia. My only display at the moment is at my work desk, but I'm still happy I get to pair up (undoubtedly) the best android and (arguably) the best valk! And to think I used to have a dozen of VF-22S!
-
Hmm. Space is limited right now but will try to make that work
-
Thanks for all the temptations, but I have fortitude. Mainly because I'm waiting for the cannon fodder type with the less flashy wings. Is that ever going to come?
-
Thanks dizman, spent an hour watching the videos :). The main reason why I'm looking at this valk. Same reason why I bought huge amounts of the 21/22. I rarely transform them, just the possibilities of it makes me happy because they are such sleek machines.
-
That seriously looks tempting. Need to watch a video of the transformation to get a better understanding of what you guys are talking about with regards to complexity. In other news, just got back into the scene - really missed the forum!
-
Loved it, despite it not being informational at all. Goosebumps galore. The movies were fun, but prefer something closer to the roots sometimes.
-
Knees are a bit similar to the 21's.
-
Worth it for the fighter mode alone, this is going to be the queen to the king of the 21 in terms of aesthetics. I'm actually going to be afraid of transforming it and bandai doing a 171CF on me.
-
I'm also for the dog head, never liked cone heads and never will.
-
I've said before that I prefer the 262 over the 31, but this just widened the gap by miles. Though the knight theme makes you wonder if the inevitable special editions will look like samurais instead?
-
Nice, the commander didn't look as garish as I thought it would.
