Graham Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Sigh, very disappointed if so much of set 4 is really just repeats from set 3. There's still so many VFs yet to do.....cough VF-11, SV-51, VF-5000, VF-17 etc. Still, looking forward to the VF-171s. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF18 Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 I have not gotten any of these but this last set looks like a must! Where do we order? For a box of 12 random pieces, all the usual stores sell them - HLJ, HobbySearch etc. AmiAmi usually have the best before-shipping price v.s. other major stores. You local hobby store may sell the random packs. For selected pieces try the for sell forum here, or pay premium on eBay for a complete set.

Horatio Positronic Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Since Wonder Festival is on now I was hoping Bandai would have a booth showing these, but I haven't read anything or seen any new pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news Hobby search has their preorder page up. I just placed mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabidweezil Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 At least there are no "De-Culture" versions in this set. Those took up so much space in series 3. I had to buy a lot more boxes to get a complete set then I did with both series 1 & 2 because of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Train Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 (edited) I have my 250's in storage, but noticed today that my beloved VF-2SS was missing... after frantically searching the house for an hour I located it. If anyone needs a comparison/scaling pic here it is , next to my 1:72 scale YF-19. Edited August 1, 2010 by Ghost Train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(until MFC4 comes out in November) Yesterday the VF-25F Sheryl 'Galaxy' version from MFC1 arrived. Unless there are some I don't know about that's my last one.

(Click for bigger) I don't remember where I saw it, but i had thought there was another 1/250 scale fighter that I didn't see in your collection. It was a VF-1A Max with the zentraedi uniform paint job....It may have been a custom but i could have sworn that it was being sold as part of a box set. Anyone else know of which one I am referring to? Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them were hard to get to work with the stand. The VF-0D was one off the top of my head. Did you have that problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have that one from the Chara Works set, it is a little further right from where the picture cuts off on my Desk o' Macross. Some of them were hard to get to work with the stand. The VF-0D was one off the top of my head. Did you have that problem? Yep, it was a little tough to balance. When I get home I'll see if I can take a picture of how I did it.

Here's how I have mine on the stand. The vertical things are in the outermost positions, which means they catch the wings just inside the center flap markings.

Yeah, mine does that too. Also, the other day my Robot Spirits Queadluun Rare fell over and knocked it down. Most of the other ones it landed on stayed on their stands.

Vostok 7 Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 There's where I put mine, and I can shake it around either by the stand or by the plane and it doesn't come loose. It wedges on there just right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wedges on there just right. I'm pretty sure I tried it from there, but it didn't work. It's way in the back row in my display case now, but next time I re-arrange I'll give it a shot just to be sure. Thanks for the tip!

From: http://ngeekhiong.blogspot.com/2010/09/non-gundam-updates-from-hobby-japan.html I thought that was the case from some of the other pics I've seen. Bandai did the same thing waaay back when they used to sell Mobile Suit in Action Gundam figures in US retail. All the Gundam wing MSIA's were first put out with Yellow, and then again later with Gold. And I have yet to see any indication of a secret in series 4. In all the other series they had a black dot over 1 or 2 valks in the early group shots. Hopefully I can get a full set with 1 or 2 boxes.
