this is good news... this will definitely help bring down the price of the remaining 25F's out there w/c has been "no-stock" or "discontinued" etc. on most online stores...
i noticed that the paint on the metal ball-joint for the hip started chipping and made the hips a li'l loose... maybe putting something like nailpolish on the 2 pieces of plastic holding the ball joint (or repaint the balljoint) could help...
...thought i'd bump this up since it's now Feb. and the VF-1D is just around the corner...
can't wait (starting to go into valk withdrawal syndrome again and needing a new valk fix )...
nice work... i like how the neck looks on the 2nd pic better... the first one is a tad too long...
BTW, anybody know the state of the prices of these DX valks in HK/Macau, Japan or Singapore?
found this - LINK
i think it says its limited...
"フロイラインリボルテック「ヨーコ劇場版」前売券セットアニメイト限定Ver. が2月6日より予約が開始になります。"
Babel fish translation - "Sale ticket [setsutoanimeito] limitation Ver of [huroirainriborutetsuku] “[yoko] theater edition” front. From February 6th reservation it becomes start."
i'm just guessing but it might be limited to people who watched "紅蓮篇" - Crimson lotus volume GL movie last year... or to people who will be watching the 2nd installment this April?????
... but i want one!
nice "movie verison"! w/ boota and more guns!... i still prefer her hair tied up.
i still wish they'd make the mature Yoko w/ black jacket and thigh-high boots (like Alter Yoko but in action figure form)... and throw in her gunbee while they're at it...
(credit image to testrun of a local board)
it went on sale here locally for around $65 (and ver.1 1/60 1J w/ GBP for $40 )... but the OCD corner of my brain just couldn't take the chunky leg armors ... i'm patient anyways, so i'll just wait for the 1/60 ver. for my 1/60 1J...
EDIT - i want it to look like the gasha in the middle of the pic below...

the only thing that put me off from buying the 1/48 GBP for my 1J are the leg armor/s... too bulky indeed, otherwise it looks great... hope the new 1/60 will look better w/ the thinner legs + foldable fins.
yeah, Overdrive. they specifically stated that the VF-0S that they have is the fixed version.
EDIT - yeah, this new VF-0S totally erased all the doubt and sh!t that i felt about it from when i got my hands on a super floppy one before. just awesome!
just as somebody mentioned (w/ pics) a few pages back... there's some extra bubble wrap padding for the tailfins w/c can be seen through the box's window.
Go get one....NOW!
