Gotta wait for the REAL "Master of Macross" to close down this thread!
-
The movies ruined MacF for me... If you're more a fan of the originals (SDFM, DYRL) you might want to just stick with the TV series... But that's just my pov. I don't feel bad for you... I wish i hadn't watched them myself.
-
I wonder if the guys at Arcadia are amused by all this bickering brought about their press releases... and even more so now coz of their prototype display... lol
-
Haha, i feel for you Renato... I don't think they'll stop speculating as to what's tampoed and what's not 'til they see a pic of the 1J naked. I myself have been waiting for the "naked" pics since this was announced before i comment any further. As for the side covers... I wish they'd just use the same color plastic as the neck cover just like what was included with the GBP set or like the ones that come with the VF-1 kits.
-
^ don't think those are lasers... Someone mentioned before that those are vernier thrusters. (I may be wrong... Was gonna check my Master file but i remmbered, i can't read Japanese, lol ) I'm actually liking that orange bike more than the 1J's paint scheme.

What percentage of your Bandai Valks are scratched?

but... but... they have different colored stripes and different heads... -
I don't think the MP Cyclone's transformation is that hard... I actually have fun transforming it. ...but i had more fun posing it like this : (Sorry, off topic)
-
Maybe "exclusive" means the opposite of inclusive in engrish, no? I don't see anything special about that stand to deem it an "exclusive" product...
-
Based on the latest battroid pics, it looks like it's exactly the same as the Yamato v.2 VF-1. Can't see though if it has option parts or not. For the price, it SHOULD include a stand imo.
-
man, your friend's prank made us all look sooooo desperate, lol... and MW wasn't really even the target of the prank.
-
Great news. Although i wish the base valk isn't bone white. I really hope Arcadia doesn't listen to the people here saying they should follow Bandai's sales strategy... I wouldn't like it if this will be hard to preorder/purchase... plus the FPs will be very expensive web exclusives. I would love for this to happen.

He probably thought you got a v.2 VT-1... -
I would have to agree with the assumption that it had a low run considering how many releases the 1J has had... Aside from the initial stndalone and SS set, there were 2 releases for the GBP set, 1st release was old crotch and 2nd release with new ones, 2 reissues (i think) for the standalone... there was also the standalone grey goggles and a weathering version (that's a lot of 1Js!)... Yamato probably just put their remaining stock in 30th anniv. boxes and packed them with option parts.
-
the rest of him probably is... Impressive body, erm... collection man.
-
yeah, the 30th anniv. TV valks did sell out fast but the DYRL ones sat on shelves for quite some time until the "panic"... i can still find a 30th anniv. CF for $100. ever the optimist...
-
did a little cleaning and unboxed my 19Kai + sound boosters. here they are in the land of my misfit valks... no place for them in my main cab with my fave toys. lol (sorry for the bad pic... dark and raining here.) i did a slight modification on the headfin so the front part doesn't jut up on top of the head. there's a slight gap at the back but it's less annoying for me than the gap on top of the head.
-
A month ago, sure... but when Arcadia eventually releases a brand new DYRL Focker 1S, it WILL seem high. A good price for the 30th anniv. DYRL w/ o.parts during the panic would be ~$135-150, imo... Or at least that's how much i saw they were selling for before people started jacking up the prices to 190-200++.
-
7. You have so much money coming out of you ass you don't know what to do with it...
-
I'm personally hoping for new paint schemes rather than reissues since the ones that i felt some regret not getting (when Yamato folded) were obscure and didn't get reissued. Although i'm sure Arcadia will be releasing the more prominent hero valks... for those who missed out. I really hope the higher price of the 30th anniv. VF-1J by Arcadia is an exception and not the new standard. The problem with it being a web exclusive limited release is that resellers will get it at msrp. They then will mark it up further so those who can't get it directly from Arcadia will have to pay over msrp. Unless HLJ can get the same deal it got to sell the VFX, Angel Birds and VF-4.
-
I don't think Macross Panic 2013 is done yet based on people's recent buying/selling activities... Prices are still sky high, 200-400 dollar VF-1s are still being bought and sold. Lol.I'm curious to know what the impact of the uncertainty of the reasoning behind the high price of 30th anniv. VF-1J(by ARCADIA) will be on buyers and sellers alike.
-
I hope they show a pic of it bare then...
-
Now the VT-1 head (in b-mode) is what i would consider ugly. Though i still can't decide which is the uglier battroid head... the VT's or the VE's.
-
Saw this thread back from the dead and checked my 21. I totally forgot that i've had it displayed for half a year now in 'delimiter' mode, lol.
-
By 'ugly' you really mean beautiful, right? Right! It's my favorite too... Looks great. Congrats!
