It is a "Dengekiya" limited version. Japanese customers can order from that web site directly without buying a magazine to get a mail-order coupon.

Hello, mate, many thx for sharing this info. Actually what's surprising me a lot is: you are so so sensitive for macross new info and always FIRST show them off here!

BTW, can it ordered now in this website? (just add to card)

And it seems that limited = weathering (no wonder other weathering for vf-1 will jump out later on)...

it seems to me that they have a different level of weathering method now without rigid panel lines. It looks much cleaner than the one they had on Max VF-1S.

I reckon it looks pretty ordinary Certainly wouldn't pay 15540Y for it.

seriously I hope they do come out with some other paint schemes like they did in 1/48 line instead of endless weathering special on existing scheme.

Like I said repainting and re naming will eventually lose its edge and when all the fans pass on what will become of macross

I wished they would finish with Angelbird (non exclusive), Darkbird, Minmay customs, Black Aces.

Just complete the canon valks, damn it!

P.S. I need the Spartan (Phalanx I regarding underway) and regults and combat armors and all the enemy mechs.

weathering looks so bad. Why is it always just blurry, airbrushed grey?

weathering has scrapes, bulletholes, dents. And it's not just grey. They need to forget making those exclusives and let people do it themselves.

sorry to rain on the thread.....

Nope, I agree. Totally valid point. They need to make these "combat-weathered and damaged" to make them worth purchasing.

I'd rather have this weathered valk also panel lined, like Max's VF-1S. At least for consistency's sake
