sigh, it's alot of money... must resist for the sake of variable goodness....
i'll pre-order, and think about it later.
true, as much as I like it, I won't be able to get this immediately
If only the lowered down the price
If it comes out this August, I'll skip this over for the Hikky 1A. -
legs are more in action.

what does a minmay guard look like? were they canon?
Having never owned a 1/48, I'll be getting these new 1/60s with gusto
besides, I plan to collect Macross and the 1/60 scale seems to be the standard hereon. I'll get at most a couple of non-canon VF-1's in 1/48, most likely the 1J Stealth or the 25th Anniv 1S but that's about it. -
gak! i didn't realize that they were that pricey
it'll eat up my budget for the 1A
:( 
-
looks great
how much do these usually cost? -
woohoo! minmay is included!
a flesh-and-blood minmay? I'm sold
I'll get as many as I can 
-
Quick! I need a time machine to bring me to October then back
oh wow!!!!!! -
I use a small flat head screwdriver to get those intakes open, as well as getting the landing gear out.
+1
that's what I used too

and to think we were just originally clamoring for the pic pinned at the booth
thanks for the pics David!

with the one long laser.
That's what she said

I don't mind the shorter canopy, though
this version is still pretty damn sweet

I won it!!!! I'm still a completist (until the 2 new exclusive versions come out). Not as low as I was hoping, but since it'll be local pickup I save on the shipping.

For those saying that the shipping is too high, check canadapost.ca. I thought the shipping was way too high too, but I took the weight in the auction and put the numbers into the shipping tool on canadapost and the seller's estimates were close.
It DOES cost @$200+ to ship internationally from Canada now (can't remember which country I entered, but I got a estimate of $314 for that one). The reason is that Canada Post doesn't have an airmail parcel option for large packages anymore. Just a 3-4 day express service or a no delivery estimate surface option.
What the seller should have done is head over to Point Roberts or Bellingham and ship from the US using USPS. Cause our postal system sucks now... but it worked out in my favour this time

FYI - For any Canadians here who sells on eBay, Canada Post's calculator now includes a State destination field... so it's no longer a flat fee to ship to the US.
Oh that explains a lot
there was this one time I was supposed to buy something off ebay from a Canadian seller and he also quoted me what I thought was a relatively ridiculous shipping cost 
Congrats with the win bro

i reckon the elintseeker and super ostrich won't be far behind, but before that, I hoe they release 1s hikky first or 1j max and miria

HAIL DARTH YAMATO!!!!! I pledge myself to your side of the Force!!!
my wallet is your slave...shigi shigi wakka shigi uwa... -
I bet you guys wished the polls weren't anonymous.
Blah blah blah it's their opinion.
yup, but this poll isn't looking for opinions but facts from those who bought the toys. This renders their votes invalid.
@ Moderators:
Is it possible to have just two votes for the broken? From what I remember, only one broken was valid and the other one got his valk without a head (which was solved afaik). The other votes are obviously pranks, of which only one had the balls to fess up. This will keep the poll in line of what it's intended to be.
-
^Agreed.
And I see that the 9th "broken" vote was removed as well, thanks Mods!
Now if they'd just ban his ass, that would be great. 
-Kyp
yes, I vote for banning.
-
200 US for shipping? rofl. .....what?
yeah, unless gemma atkinson comes along with the toy, that's really one f*cked up shipping cost!

-
At least it gives me a change to educate them about my beloved Macross series.
What is this Macross you speak of? Is this a new cartoon series?
-
Is the 1D even there?
Yup,but just pictures posted at the though. But that'll do for the moment
If only someone can post the pics here, I'm sure someone took a pic of it 
-
Go watch it. Great anime.
BTW. Love the mr. Bean avatar, but maybe you should consider using some pics of Rowans' daughter Gemma Atkinson. Much prettier than her father.

hehe I will

WOW! I don't mind calling Rowan Atkinson as Dad!

btw this is my 100th post! yipeee ;D
-
Seriously, is nobody going to get a close up of the VF-1D picture in the Yamato display?
haha +1 here

-
Okay, I'm home now. It wasn't the leg bits, either. Everything seems to be fine.
But what is this?? 
Roy is just as puzzled as I am:


It's what remains of Kaki's valk
Rest in peace Kaki 
@ Kyp:
I sincerely hope he is. Then again, the number for broken did raise by one. Can the moderators remove that count?
-
Nirvash typeZERO, designed by Shoji Kawamori.
from what anime is that?
-

Here's an inquiry: Why does the 1J have a higher price tag than the current 1/60's? Could it have additional accessories, like a stand perhaps?
-
wow!great custom bro

Yamato 1/60 v.2 2 seaters

It's a necessary sacrifice to keep costs down I guess. I don't mind, though, it still looks gorgeous
Besides, Yammie's seems to listen to fan reactions so maybe they'll make some sort of adjustments to the prototype
