I love his bikes. Aside Kaneda's too. Both my PA release Fenrir and Hardy Daytona sets was left back in the Philippines. And I only have here the recent released PAK Fenrir set. Now, seeing those two once again, you're making me wish that Square Enix should release a PAK Hardy Daytona soon (with an updated PAK FFVII (not remake) Cloud too).

borgified Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Can't go wrong with a Chunky Monkey to add into your collection Shizuka. Chasing down all the variants (if you do) is another question. To quote a stanza from one of the most recognizable boyband songs as they're still going after all these years (I'm not talking about either any of the J/K-pop Boybands): "Tell me why/Ain't nothing but a heartache/Tell me why/Ain't nothing but a mistake/Tell me why/ I don't want to hear you say/ I want it that way".

sh9000 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 If the 1/55 is a reissue and brand new then it should be nice since it’s a great toy that is still in perfect condition. I still wish that Bandai reissued the Strike VF-1S, Armored VF-1, VT-1, VE-1, and their planned VF-1D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a Jumbo Machinder-sized chunky-style 3P release....I'd get every single variant produced.... I recall there were a couple MW members working on upscaled chunky VF-1s....one made of wood and one out of metal....wonder if they ever completed them?

I don’t mind if Walgreens carries more Marvel Legends as long as they are available online and in store and discounted often. Got some more female figures.

Shizuka the Cat Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 And now I just ordered a 2nd chunky monkey from Mandarake. Can't wait for my VF-1A DYRL Max and VF-1J Hikaru to arrive.

TrickyCustomer Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Purchased a valkyrie factory ko arcadia vf-1s clone, which arrived today. For the money, It's actually not half bad. Came well packaged and double boxed. The paintwork, Tampo's and joints are all very good. Transformed without fault and look great on display. Is it better than the real thing? No, but for the money i think it was worth it. Might even go for the focker with super parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgified Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 There are some Chunky Monkey that hasn't be made at all @Shizuka the Cat Based on what @sh9000 has posted, that's the modern list of the 1/55 of what has been made so far, however, there is a vintage VF-1s Strike Hikaru that is considered a "Holy Grail" plus with a VF-1j and GBP (both packed separately), which both @rdrunner and @jenius has in their own collection. Make sure that you have enough funds saved for your actual wedding day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
