thanks for the pictures, it's a shame that the VF-1J is same old crotch system.

What's the difference between th eold and new crotch system? I only have the old one and I was able to break the plastic that holds the tab.

Pictures will be quite appreciated! TIA and a happy new year to y'all

Which one will you guys buy a Beagle worth $205 USD converted or a Toynami version worth $187.5 USD converted?

Please help me decide!

You tube "Mospeada Beagle" for both review.

My choice is all Toynami Cyclone right now. I was just wondering if earlier batches (i.e. 300+) and those in the 1,200+ have different build quality.

Again thanks in advance for any information.

I finally got my "scott bernard' MP Cyclone... yes, I got the toynami version. Number 321... that's gotta be a bad sign.

It's cool. Kinda fidgety though but it's amazing piece of engineering.

I found a local seller that carries the Scott's Cyclone for about $187 converted. I have a choice of getting one with the following numbers:

344

395

1273 (or somthing like that)

With eugimon's statement above, is there a problem with the earlier releases? Please help! I'm torn which one I should get. Thanks in advance fellas!

Previous null vote and got to play around with it just now. Perfect for me. I love it!!!!

One more thing, I have stright skulls. YES!

I just got mine. Yamato has finally won me over. It has everything I like about the 1/48 and more, while it doesn't inherit what I don't like about the 1/48s.

Could it be that Yamato has finally earned enough to get a better qc guy? hahaha!

That is a good price for a 1/48 even by Philippine standards. I just bought a new 1/48 GBP from a guy here who got it from Singapore. Damage: $80 converted. Pretty happy with it considering my first one costs about double that price.

Although I am eagerly awaiting to get my 1/60, the new found prices of the 1/48 is too hard to resist.

the chest missile hatch/system was a bit fragile on the 1st release.

Thanks for the info.

Can someone tell me if there is a difference between the 1st issue 1/48 GBP and the latter release? Thanks for the help y'all!

I'm with you on that. If Roy never saw a reissue, it would probably fetch 500 bucks already!

All of a sudden I'm a Mac0 lover! That thing looks sweeter than candy! I'm a gonna get me multiples! yummy!

When the 1/48 Hikaru 1st came out, everyone here was bad mouthing it due to QC problems. That was one of the reasons I didn't snag one earlier and felt bad that i had to pay about 160 bucks for it later on. From what I remember, sales of the Hikkie 1S was really bad. I guess that just made it more rare. If Yamato will make reissue decisions based on how well the first release sold, things will look dim for the Hikaru 1S.

Err...current exchange rate is Php 54.5 to a $1. So, $300 would be just Php 16,000. About half of your keyboard!

Exactly what is the THS? Is it exclusive to the Galaxy Force line or do they plan to do this with G1? I would love a G1 Prime made into this!

i've been holdong out on the 1J because of the GBP. i bet a whole lotta people did as well. if they release a bundle set, then i guess there are no problems as it is confirmed that they will sell a GBP separate set.

Ultra Magnus is toit! I gotta have this

Still no word if this is going to be bundled with a 1J?

Wish i had a low viz....that would go great even with the prototype color!

Sniff....it's beautiful!

Roy's VF-1S was pretty scarce before until there was a 2nd and 3rd reissue. I believe there's enough to go around. Of course, demand for this is higher so it may as well be hard to get.

Hikaru, on the other hand, was left with initial poor sales making a 2nd run difficult to imagine. I think Hikaru will be harder to find in the future so I suggest getting this first. I just love the color scheme and it was bad-a$$ in the final scene of DYRL?

Just wondering. How come there are not that many masterpiece primes japanese versions selling on ebay. Am I using bad search words. I want to know what the going rate for one of these things is.

Ever since they stopped production of the MP Prime, it has been getting harder and harder to find. Unlike the Hasbro counterpart where only the difficult find is the gray gun version. I guess the long smokestacks, great box (along with the cardboard trailer), and un-"damaged" paint job makes it more popular than Hasbro's.

wow! the 1st set of head and hands are great? where canone get those?

Hi, I just got my MPC alpha today and I've already managed to pick several REALLY big F Ups in it.

1. - One of the diecast heels has been attached inverted. It doesn't affect stability a helluva lot but it looks terrible especially becuase the feet don't fold in symmetrically in fighter mode

2. The ratchet joint in the left leg is loose and the leg keeps telescoping on itself when in battloid mode. Makes for a rather lopsided battloid and guardian

3. The right hand came with a left thumb so the right fist won't fold up properly

has any of this happened to any of you guys. If so, any ideas to fix them?

Even though I want to kill toynami right now I must say though that the sculpt is rather nice.

What number did you get? I was under the impression that the latest batch they were offering had less QC problems

unless you get the limited matrix set which comes in a see thru cube, a mini bust of neo, and a collectors book

any pictures? can't seem to find them in amazon.

Just wondering...does any of you guys (who hasn't bought it) would want to buy a used one with applied stickers for let say....45 bucks? just wondering what would the price be cuz I'm somewhat thinking of selling it off...

I'd gladly buy it off at that price if you'll include shippine here in asia!
