In Japan right now, saw a bunch of Strike versions at Hobby Off for about $100, but after seeing them in person, not sure they're worth the ¥12,000 yen sticker price.

For damn near $150 CAD, you figure the metal parts would be forged, not cast out of pot metal.

Fuk Mac toys are pricey. 1/60 v2 strike Valk is ¥30,000... Ffs......

Has anyone here received payment request from HLJ? Item is 'discontinued' on their website but till now no email from them. I'm worried HLJ got a stock cut.

Just got my payment request from HLJ. $220.17 American Dollas! I'm gonna leave it in private warehouse for a while.

You guys weren't expecting a hit like that with shipping?

If I go SAL I think I'm within my customs limit.

This is going to be exciting. I have no more space.


Only ordered one, maybe on day I will see one on sale

lol, ever thought of group preordering and cancelling!

My thoughts exactly. That's not real die-cast.

But explain difference between forged and cast.

Are they mixing plastic with the "die-cast".

At least these toys are available. I hated the vf25 Chogokins craze because it was hard to even buy one. Scalpers were buying up a lot of the stock I think. Bandai better release the destroids before this line gets too hot and scalpers speculate on these.

Cool pics! :)

Although I must say, that I prefer the ground fight scenes between these HM/HMR's.....

The "anime magic" seems to get lost when you group HM/HMR VF's and Regults in "flight" battle poses.....unless you play with the perspective...like the perspective you captured in the last pic.....the Regults end up looking too small next to the VFs if they are not standing....well, IMO anyways :rolleyes:
