Finally…. Patiente paid off. I was finally able to score a M/NM-black sticker-VF-1S. Very happy right now……

The ultimate VF-1 set. If I was to only have 1 VF-1 toy, this would be the one to have. Funny thing is I don't have one and I like Roy's color way better but there is no better all-around package than this one. I just settle with having hundreds of other Valks instead for now.😅

Talk about sticker shock.

It's in good shape but, Eh' Nope...... Not at that price....

Looking for one myself, but I have my limits! 🙈

That is one ultra glossy VE-1. Seems as if the seller used baby oil to clean it. 

At that price I would expect to be shown the rear of the figure and all the accessories as I only count one booster armor antenna.

My have the prices of VE-1’s risen in past auctions, not sure they are selling that high though.

I thought it was priced crazy, so then I checked sold auctions and saw this:

That’s still a hefty catch. Would be nice to know the actual price. BOA can lead people to believe the higher price listed but the figure could have sold for half the asking price.

holy moly!  $4500 for a VE-1?     this reminds me of ebay back in the early 00s where 1/55 strikes were basically getting gobbled up by 1 or 2 whales and driving the prices up artificially.    

 

Side note,   I managed to acquire a 1/55 Matsushiro Jetfire that needs some parts..    most of my old links for these are dead.. any good sites for parts,  like back packs or other random stuff for repair?

I might have some parts, but they are yellowed. Let me know what you need and I'll see what I have for you.
