logos,

i feel you, i have most of my toys in the office..its my stress removal area at work.

whats a masterpiece starscream doin in there hehe

Purchased on a whim.....also you missed Skywarp.

Maybe the 1/60 toy will have a pilot (but to actually fit in the cockpit, he'll have to be a smaller scaled pilot (1/70 or something).

Well he could always just keep 1/60 make it smaller and say it was the "runt of the litter". Besides with Zentradi miclone technology couldn't they be any size they wanted?

Review is up on CollectionDX. Adam/Atom reviewed it, does he get all the expensive toy reviews? Anyway here is the video.

Like I've said to some of the other Mac'worlders before it has never been a problem. It's a small office too so I get away with it.

I really do like having them at work though. I spend way more time with them then I ever would at home. It's my "Calm Blue Ocean" or "Serenity Now" or "Hang in There" poster. Besides the only time I have concentrating with them around is when I get a new one.

Mine wiggles just a little bit but nothing I am worried about.

Mine was EMS and I did not pay any duty. Exact price of the toy was on the bill of lading as well.

Couple of pics.....

My collection as of the beginning of 2011.

Daaaamn thats nice! I totally want one now. I'm pretty good at modeling but I HATE painting...... I really hope Yamato releases this as a toy someday.

Finally picked mine up today. It arrived Friday but I missed it at home and it was not yet at the post office when I went there with my slip. . Anyway I love this toy and the Sprue pieces where actually pretty easy to assemble. Had to use some plastic cement on some to keep them in but they where not hard to put in at all and only took about 1 hour.

Note mine did arrive with a defect. The piece on the left arm that attaches to the ARMD (magnet piece). Everything was fine until I swiveled the arm on the attachment piece and it popped off at the joint! Thank Jebus that there is a screw right in the elbow that lets you easily take the forearm apart. Reassembled it back in and notice that when twisting the piece it was forcing the seems apart, which allowed it to pop out. Screw was tight so I figured it most have something to do with how it is seated in the joint. Played with it a bit more and managed to find the correct seating position so that it does not do this again.....whew^_^.....well it's right as rain for now.... .......

Like I said I love this toy but feel a bit underwhelmed by it at the same time. Everything about it is great but for the over $300 dollar price tag I just wish it did......well more. Super easy to transform once you have done it once and it appears to be pretty sturdy.

Maybe a sound effects stand or something and some lighting like you see on the new battleship Yamato releases.

I sure hope not as that just screams "move this part here........snap........ahhhh s*&t!" to me.

Just noticed the 3 antenna/lasers on the head. Really want to see batroid pics now.

Not a fan.

Reminds me of a kit bashed VF-25/VF-27/VF-19...

I realize Kawamori is obligated to provide more merch for Bandai to sell, but dude...REALLY??!!

How about the enigmatic VF-24?

Put delta wings on a VF-25, tadda!! New fighter to sell on the cheap...

Exactly! Why not just give us the YF/VF-24 and call it something like the VF-29 Foxbat. (Like they did it with the VF-22 Sturmvogel) Change the gun, wings and fix the VF-25 problems. But lets face it.....this is Macross World, we'll still bitch about it.

Still not liking this very much. Would have far prefered a DX VF-171/171EX.

Graham

While I don't mind the design I would rather have the DX VF-171/171EX as well.

It's too bad you're in Canada because K-mart had the AT-AT on sale for $50 just before Thanksgiving. You may be able to find it on clearance now that X-mas has past.

Really?!?!!? *%$#%%! I avoid our Walmart like the plague and K-mart closed down here shortly after they opened. I don't even know if any retailer carries it in stock or has it on sale in Saskatchewan......

Anyway.....sort of back on topic!

International item has left the origin country and is en route to Canada.......which means I'll have it by sometime end of next week......I am more excited about this than I was Christmas this year.

Mine shipped from AmiAmi this morning! Based on my past experience from AmiAmi I bet it comes in a box the size of a washer!

And I was going to buy an AT-AT after seeing this video review from CollectionDX. Oh well if I bought that and all the extra action figures I would need for it, it would probably come out to around the $395Can. I just spent on the SDF1 anyway.

Damn! Macross wins every time when it comes to my toy purchases.

Woohoo, just received the same! 4840 EMS shipping to Canada too. Came out to $395.40cdn for interested Canucks! Boy the Yen is high! But from the review, it looks totally worth it. Can't wait to paint this puppy up!!

Same here. It's nice that where you live in Urban Ontario or Rural Saskatchewan the price is the same for shipping to Canada.......

Now lets see $200 Christmas bonus covers half of this (edit: no wait it doesn't, Caesar takes 35%)......now where to get the rest...........ramen for a month again and no book purchases for the next couple months........man January going to suck until this toy shows up......now to make the Christmas leftovers that my Mom sent home with me stretch out a few more days.

hey might. If you look at the picture there appear to be gaps around the spikes. Also the manual shows the spikes extended in all the pics as well. Graham is this a "feature"? -- NEVERMIND. In the time I took to post this Graham said it was....

Ok now that I have seen the paint I kinda like it. Is that pink or just a light red (please let it not be pink!)?

Valkyrie without a black/grey gun pod though......oh well white is not as bad as purple! Hopefully it folds open like the VF-25 to reveal some nice black inner details.

Actually I was making fun of the YF-29 when I posted the Cyclonus pic. Not the VF-19EF.

Yeah I know.

I think the YF-29 looks more like him in the "junk/trunk" though.

HA!.....ain't it the TRUTH!

Damn Web exlusives! Maybe we will get lucky and in a few months you will be able to buy the TV max with the cloths? Ack I am living in fairy land again.

VF-19EF fighter is a dead ringer for Cyclonus. So far I like what I see of the YF-29 in fighter. Still need to see it in all modes and in color before I pass final judgement.

Exactly what I was thinking. As soon as I saw the pic I thought "Why am I thinking Transformers the Animated Movie when looking at the back half?" and then BOOM! You said Cyclonus and it all feel into place.................now it looks like a rip off in my eyes....sigh............

I'm so going to give the 19 a Guitar..,.. who needs a gunpod when your a rockSTAH!

Now that's a cool idea. Now to find a 1/60 guitar..........

Defiantly looking interesting. Wait to see it painted and we get a release date I think.

sold

Here is PIC!
