many_feedbacks Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Speedboy, I guess you must be new in collecting Macross Valkyries. $40 for a complete set of original Macross 1/55 Strike Armors would never happen. Note: There is NO re-issue Macross 1/55 Strike Armors. Talk to cru721 and see how much he is willing to sell his complete set of original Macross 1/55 Strike Armors. http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=26731 Good luck on your hunt. im looking for strike armor for my takatoku vf-1j 1/55 also hoping gun pod will come with it also need armor and gun for jetfire not looking for show quality beat up is even ok i paid 25 for the j and 15 for the autobot so im kind of hoping to pay under 40 for each set so if you have something or anything pm me thank you for your time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXO Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 PM Bobepatt, he pieced together a lot of Strike Valks for himself. He's the expert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back then I see the prices for just the armor alone should be around that much. I pieced my armor together and total cost me 50 bucks. I finally complete my first strike valk and altogether it cost me only 130. Most I'd pay for this particular strike armor set is 75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let it be known, sometimes BobePatt is not always cheap. 50.00 - 75.00 is about right. Not to long ago I purchased a couple of sets for less than 100 bucks.

SPEEDBOY Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 (edited) well thanks everyone i appreciate all your help 75 sounds do'able but im not going to pay that much when i could get a much better peice (valk+armor) for the same if not less ie: yamato 1/48 vf1s super+strike for 116 + 25 shipping on ebay hmmmm... let me think... armor (only) for chunky or... yamato perfect transform armor + gun pod + valkyrie Edited July 18, 2008 by SPEEDBOY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cru721 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 what is the going price range obviosly i have offended the whole macross community cru721 wont haggle or answer me he just said that if thats what i offer then he would rather keep them so...i want to know what should i expect to pay Dude don't worry about it you have not offended me! I just had no idea that they were worth so little. Upon finding this out I have just decided to keep them as a spare set for the future. Be patient; what you are looking for will turn up this is a great site for these kinds of things! Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glane21 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Re-issues of the 1/55 Strike???????????????? Really? There was a press release that all 'exotic' 1/55 variants will be reissued. Also they had strke armor on display at a recent show beside the other current reissues. So it's likely,yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
