I ordered a VF-11B. When I purchased it, the description on the web site said it was In Stock. Plus from the pros and cons I've been reading on this thread, people are saying they don't charge you until the item is shipped so I figured the item was on it's way.

I saw these on HLJ. They were released in December 2009. Can anyone verify if these have the fixed shoulder hinge or are they the exact same ones as before? 1/60 VF-1S Roy Focker with Super & Strike Parts Plus http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00180 1/60 VF-1S Hikaru Ichijo with Super & Strike Parts Plus http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00179

Regarding HLJ, you guys mention they don't charge your card until the item is shipped. I orderd something on Jan 5th and my card was charged on Jan 6th. Their web site still shows the item is being processed for shipment though. Is this normal? I already sent an email to inquire about it but I thought i'd get your feedback.

I'm seeing alot of Wave SDF-1 Movie Colors on eBay. I was thinking of getting one but I'm not sure if I should. How can I tell if it's a cheap knock off?

Well, I haven't been on these forums for a while nor have I purchased a Yamato Macross figure since the 1/48s. When I saw the The VF-1S 1/60, I just had to get one. Unfortunately, the first time I tried to transform mine, a little piece of the shoulder pin chipped off. Same as descibed by others. What ticks me off is there wasn't even any forceful play involved. The damn thing just chipped off as soon as I swung the right arm open. Anyways, here is a picture taken from my not so great camera. I feel kind of ripped off now.

So is this a common problem then?

I just got a VF-0S. The marking on the helmet off center. Does anyone have an extra pilot they are willing to sell?

Yeah, my 1/48 Roy is at work right now. No access to nail polish. No girlfriend currently so I'm gonna have buy some at the local market during my lunch break.

I just got the VF-0S. I did a forum search for any problems with the VF-0S and could only find topics about the legs. Anyways, I noticed the emblem on Roy's helmet is a little off center. Is this normal? Any ideas on how I can replace it?

Noob question. Where exactly do I apply the nail polish?

I noticed the upper arm section on my 1/48 Roy is starting to get loose from the shoulder section. Anyway to retighten this? I tried the screws behind but it didn't really do anything when I tightened them (they were already pretty snug). Here is a pix of what I'm talking about: [attachmentid=40275]

I stopped my Macross/Yamato habit for 2 years and now I got sucked back into it again. Just some questions. Will the 1/48 GPS Armor work on all the 1/48s? Is Yamato rereleasing 1/48 Miria? Whats the difference between the 2nd and 3rd (do they have a 4th?) 1/48 Roy release?

I don't know if this topic has been discussed already, but why does Hikaru start off in a VF-1J in the TV series? As a fresh recruit, shouldn't he be assigned a VF-1A? I don't recall the series explaining why he was given a VF-1J, did I miss something?

Sorry, I have been out of touch with Macross and Robotech. I went to Robotech's web site and saw that they now sell DYRL MPCs. I don't want to start another arguement on this forum, but when did HG aquire rights for DYRL? Is there something I'm missing here? Did HG and Big West finally settle?

Yeah, but he's no longer co-GM because his team lost at Survivor Series. However, by popular demand, the board of directors brought him back under his own terms. Hence the role of Sheriff being used by Austin. But what's the whole point of Austin using an ATV to enter the ring? To make him look like a bigger dork than he already is.

$150.00 for bookends is crazy! Save your money and get something else.

You have to wait until it's fully downloaded. I have completed the download. Much better video quality than the Infusion version. I haven't watched the whole thing yet so I don't know about the subbing. So far so good.

I think Infusion did a great job with the fansub. But I prefer the ANBU-AonE fansubs from the previous two releases and I can't wait to see what they do with the third episode.

Why don't you buy them from eBay or better yet Twin Moons Anime or Valkyrie-Exchange?

How does Soze make sure you get a perfect version? I'm sure he gets a random selection in a box just like every other seller. Oh and Dr Clay, it's not that bad. Just some minor QC issues. Exceept maybe for the paint, everything else is unnoticeble.

I got my VF-1S Hikaru yesterday. I too have noticed some QC problems on my valkyrie. 1. Mine had the same problem with the black paint as Tamim did. Except mine is on the chest pieces instead of the wing. 2. I noticed little bits of plastic from where panel lines were etched in where still attached. Nothing big, just had to scrape them off. 3. Some dried glue running from the front of the hip piece where the air intake is. The glue itself was not a problem but the little pieces of dust/dirt that got glued on had to be scraped off. Hmm, I wonder what happened to Yamato? Their previous Max and Low Viz had an exceptionally good quality to them. Did they switch factories or something?

Why do that to a perfectly good toy?

Either Prime or the the 1/48 VF-1J.

I nominate EXO to give up all his Yamato 1/48.

I was thinking about getting it since I already got the Mospeada box set. But after seeing the previews, I don't think I will get it.
