looking more closely, i noticed that the 21's head turret came out looking like it was made from solid gold... nice.

21 looks better that the 25th Anni. pretty, pretty pics... (waiting for the VF-11B pic to come next...)

lol, i was waiting for someone to make this comment... ... and what is w/ those markings that look like a flower flanked by 2 hearts???

yeah... my wife suggested it coz all of them have some bright red parts... really need to get off my lazy @ss and start building a makeshift lightbox for taking pics, esp. now that the rainy season is starting here... still deciding whether Max needs it or not... my wallet is heavily protesting it... yeah, grew up watching Voltes V and Daimos on TV when i was a kid. got the Volt-in-Box version but sold it coz i preferred the anime accurate one. still might get one later on if it goes on clearance.

woohoo!!! <---- for my kids... they absolutely love Toy Story 1 & 2 and that Buzz Lightyear cartoon... they watch it, like, 10-15 times a week! they even asked me to buy this Toy Story gasha/action fig set w/ Woody, Buzz, Jessie, Zurg and 2 LGMs...

some new collection pics of re-arranged old stuff (only the 1S Max is new... ) can't wait to get my VF-11B... only 2 weeks to go... ... and the non-Macross gang.

sorry man, but that pic of the Revo 1J and Regults made me cringe a little... looks like a gang rape scene but good idea w/ those pinpoint barrier thingys on the SDF-1.

answering the question - Would you buy a v2.0 1/60 YF-19? YES... even if they make it 5-10 years from now? YES... if it comes out as tight and sturdy in all modes as the v2.0 1/60 VF-1s? Definitely YES... if they manage to take a chunk off of that gullet? Hell YEAH! the YF-19 is still my fave Hero Valk... and the only thing keeping the VF-1 tied w/ it is nostalgia. but right now, i'm pretty happy w/ my 19 (as long as i don't compare it to my other valks )... esp. after fiddling with it some, i've managed to figure out how to put it back snugly in fighter mode even w/ the FPs on and w/out anything popping off or getting loose. i can even hold it by the side of its legs and swoosh it around some . of course i'm always scared sh!tless whenever somebody reports a problem...

question to those who use the stand adapter for b-mode... does it in anyway hamper the movement of the hip joint? (sorry, mine are all in their respective boxes and in storage)

the 1st pic has the wings closed or almost closed coz the swing bar is disconnected to the backplate. the 2nd pic w/ the swing bar connected properly, the wings are partially open coz the stand adapter is in the way...

was planning to get one of the clear ones and even a blue one when it's released, but now i think i'll stick w/ my Bandai Action Base 1 stands and flexys... the bandai stand is pretty good for b-mode aerial poses w/out having to leave the wings open. Flexys are, of course, the best for f-mode...

yep, i still really like staring at my 1/60 YF-19 coz i really liked staring at it in the anime... another reason why i still like my 19 coz it is the only YF-19 worth having right now... and while i'm w/ everybody in hoping that Yamato does make a 1/60 version 2 down the road, i'm doubting that they will anytime soon.

Eureka???.... u mean Eureka 7? if so, +1 on that!

they can delay the M&Ms all they want, just make sure that when they come out they will be sporting the "not so new" improved crotch attachment mechanism a la 1/48...

nice! another one that i was waiting for to come out...

cool vid... love Yoko!

it's out... woohoo, just in time for my vaca to HK... http://ameblo.jp/digitamin/entry-10264395223.html http://ga.sbcr.jp/mfigure/012952/ http://www.toysdaily.com/discuz/thread-96729-1-1.html

i like the ones w/ the clear base better...

we're just waiting for this to be appended to the 2-seater thread. ... or not

it's a VF, of course it's supposed to have a Battroid mode, doh! and unless i was unclear, i was only stating my personal preference when it comes to displaying my valks... everybody else can display/play/transform their own toys however they want to...

another funny thing about this for me is, i don't really care much about the battroid modes for the VE and VT and can't even remember seeing them in b-mode in the anime... and i've all but decided to keep the VE-1 in fighter and the VT-1 in gerwalk or fighter when i get them later this year... doh!
