xrentonx Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) I remember how easy my first purchase for the 25S was on HLJ in comparison to what happened in the years after...ah...those were the days!

The Old Man Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Hmm. On the one hand I'm tempted to break my no doubles rule - just because this may be my only opportunity to purchase another ar MSRP. On the other hand, I can just kick back and relax as everyone else plays the F5 game at ridiculous o'clock. I can even glance across the room and see this...

Shukenzero Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 i remember differently... pay up! jk just rubbing it in... i'm not serious of course. anyways, i'm just happy they're reissue him, just hope there's enough production like the vf-25F to go around. everyone panic!!! Haha but to be fair, I'll say that we predict but never know for sure. That's what I said before, and I'll stick to the fact that until it's true, it's up in the air. Don't get me wrong, I hope to get what we wish for, but having collected a plethora of different toy lines from various companies, they do end up making you wait, or forgoing things altogether. Doubt will always be there, just so when it doesn't come, it's not a disappointment. Now to get a bloody preorder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wm cheng Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'm going to try to get one or two----solely to be re-sold *at cost*, to MW members who haven't been able to get any yet. I believe Wm Cheng has both super parts and an armor pack for Ozma, but no valk to put them on yet. People in situations like that have the highest priority. Thanks David, its so nice to know someones got my back! Got my alarm set for Aug 1st 3am (EST)... Good luck to everyone though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lykaios Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Ozma was a Armor whore, and never used the Toronados in either the film or the show, so no. Macross Frontier - Monster AMV: I haven't seen the movies all the way through yet, but I thought that was Ozma with a tornado setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Man Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Nope. Ozma was rockin the full armour. Alto and Michael were in the Tornado parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lykaios Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Uh-oh... Just don't call them Veritech fighters and you might dodge that one without a scratch. Haha, I actually do use the old terms . But only because I have not familiarized myself with the original material. Which I am looking forward to doing other than Macross 7. But don't you worry, I at least realize the scourge of our fandom, Harmony Gold, for what it is....but I digress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechaninac Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) That was Alto. Ozma's 25 can be clearly seen equipped with the Armor Pack in that clip. Edit.: The Old Man beat me to it... Edited July 26, 2014 by mechaninac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lykaios Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) I got my alarm set for Aug 1st 3am (EST)... Good luck to everyone though. Wouldn't that be the 31st at around 2am?? EDIT: 3am EST, but the important thing being the 31st instead of the 1st? Just teasing. We all love our Land-Air-Mechs. It is all more than good. And like I said, I am not as hardcore....that looked like a tornado from that angle to me, but I see what you all are saying. But does that mean we CAN'Tget a 25-S tornado pack? Or must we take a second mortgage out for the scalped armor or super parts kits....?? Dammit. Edited July 26, 2014 by Lykaios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this will change but until then... You can get the 25S super parts for less than a new conservatory if you hunt around. Armoured parts are crazy money like you say.

skullmilitia Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) If anyone is looking for a set of VF-25S renewal SUPER parts, let me know. I know of one pair for 72$.And a few others for 90$. It's not great, but it's not an international seller, so shipping will be cheap if you'rein the US.

Major Focker Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 need some help. how do i tell if Alto Armor parts are for v1 or v2? something on the box? or something obviously different in one of the parts? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickyg Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Easiest way to tell is probably the missile boxes on the legs. The v1 has no vents and the v2 does. The vents are little holes along the side of the boxes. You can also check here:http://anymoon.com/blog/?p=6072 As it shows a great comparison between the two versions.

Armor parts are different in colours and details. Anymoon link given above will tell you all you need to know.

The Old Man Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 The price will be a good indication too. If it appears to be too good to be true, those will be v1 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Ah ok, now I know what part you are talking about. Sorry about that. I was thinking the ball joint for the shoulder. That's a good question, I was thinking the same as Saburo and thought you meant the ball joint that you can get to with a screw driver, but I'm not sure if you can pop off that white shoulder covers that have 007/SMS on them. You may have to be the crash test dummy and try if no one else has. -b. I did pop off the white shoulder armor... with some minor blemishes. Hehehe.

ChaoticYeti Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So, if they are finally reissuing the S, do you think G won't be too far behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skullmilitia Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So, if they are finally reissuing the S, do you think G won't be too far behind? Probably will get another Alto, Ozma and Luca reissue before Michael.. Because Bandai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sreichma Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Glad to be eating some thoughts I've had. I never thought this was coming. No doubt now the G will get a reissue also. To be clear, is the preorder going to be 3am est on the 31st (3 hours after midnight on the 30th) or is it 3am est on the 1st ( 3 hours after midnight on the 31st) ?
