Dang, pre-order porn right here. What kind of job/jobs you guys have? I want in too. I want to be able to afford buying 3-4 of the same kits.

Looking at Aliexpress I'm seeing the KO of the VF-117 missile set much to my surprise, but nothing for the YF-19 and its pylons sadly.

Do you still have the link? I couldn't find it.  Thank you

The Ami-Ami FU.  Maybe they'll offer you $7 store credit.

Yup. Amiami is the best, until you got problem with the item. Then they're the worst kind of company. No customer service whatsoever.

So it's gold paint? I thought the plastic would be that colour...

I wish. I love my Yamato VF-19 even more, since they use yellow plastic instead.

That sux!

Manufacturing/Factory damage.

Try to return it for a replacement asap!

 

 

I did. No luck

Just got mine today, and when i opened it i cannot be more disappointed. Mine got a really bad paint smudge on the shoulder armor. The gold paint looks like it's not fully dried, and someone just touching it, and smudged it. If any of you got this reissue on the way, i suggest you at least open it and check the gold paint. 1st time happening to me. And i own a lot of Yamato, and Arcadia products.

At 1/100 scale, I think it's best that you get the Hi-Metal R VF-1's. No big partsforming needed. No need to build it. No need to paint it.  

But the point of HG kit, is to build it. Half of the fun is in building it. 

I also forgot VF-4. What a unique fighter, and battroid mode. I want that too. Well, i want all Macross jets eventually. 

I hope they do VF-1 after YF-21. It's probably gonna be super small

Well, Basara in a fishnet tanktop is 100% canon 😛
 

 

True, but I'm still not ready to see him in a bikini. 

So, the G in VFG can be Guy too right? I want YF-19 with Isamu, or Fire Valkyrie with Basara next. Just make sure the guys are fully clothed. I don't want to see Basara dressed with cat ear, and swimsuit.

Wound up pre-ordering the VF-31D, and putting in an order for the 35th anniversary scheme one too, while they're on discount at HLJ.  I did notice, the D-version has a notched cat ear.  

Wish we could get a Mirage variant, but I might try and tweak the 35th one in her colors.

That's it? A different ear, is that what gets you? I too almost bought it.  But, i already have 31A. So, I'm just waiting for vf-31 with super parts. 

At last, with the vf-25 they are giving us a handheld gun. Finally!!!

The secondary market prices have slowly crept up from a low of around 13-14k yen last August/September - they seem to be going for around 18k now if I'm not mistaken.

I snagged mine from YJA/Buyee for 15k after fees, but before international shipping.  It was an A grade item (box opened, tray still sealed).  I'm pretty pleased with it, considering my initial impressions of it on the show. 

 

Basically any DX macross will go up in price eventually. I wish that dx macross is as abundant as MG model kit. Walk to your local anime/comic store and just grab one of the shelf.

You have to admit, it makes him look... cool.

 

Is that the voice actresses?

So, any word that this Valkyrie will see more releases? Since the Macross Delta movie and word of another, a single release seems disappointing. I love the unique nature of this design and hope that I can convince my wife to let me get one soon, if still available at reasonable prices.

Have you watched the transformation video? That thing is super complicated. 

This maybe not the place to ask the question. But does anyone heard if there's any new macross game? It's been 3 years since delta scramble.

I almost forgot I ordered the clear cover parts and when I checked my Taobao order, it said my item was sitting in a distribution center and I needed to pay additional shipping. It was close to getting cancelled but glad I caught it in time. Once I figured it out and paid, it arrived very quickly and I got it today. This is how it showed up. 

No protection at all, just a bag in a bag. NBD, it seems fine and I’ll check it out and hopefully post some pics tomorrow.

I think you can tell your taobao middleman to keep all packaging. At least that's how it works with tbfocus. If you say nothing, most of the time, they will discard the packaging. 

I think that's because today is April Fools day? We'll see if price is back to normal or stay same tomorrow.

Wow that was super fast!! Thanks for the answer. Will go and buy it now. 

Guys, sorry i didn't get a chance to read the entire previous posts. But, is there anyone that make a 3d printed antenna for yf-29 Alto? I just bought one, and it only have the rubber antenna. I dont know if it's missing, or if it's originally didnt come with the hard antenna.  Anyone can help me? Thanks

I'll be okay with vf-11 first. Or any other vf not from frontier or delta. Even fire valkyrie.
