F360 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 The price after the bonus credit is not bad since HLJ credits is just as good as cash. Macross II Lovers Again: VF-2SS Valkyrie II with SAP Nexx Gilbert Custom (after bonus credit is 15708 yen) Macross II Lovers Again: VF-2SS Valkyrie II with SAP Faerie Squadron Limited (after bonus credit is 12705 yen) I thought about it , real hard, but just couldn't click it. Ended up buying Variable Action Hi-Spec Orguss (Reissue) and GSA New Arhan (Expelled from Paradise)from Good Smile Company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) Fwiw, you only get the store-credit when you ship out the item. Dunno how much the shipping-fees, tho. Edited June 1, 2017 by treatment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetJockey Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I remember owning one of the old kits of this valkyrie. It gave me fits but I think that was the only toy available back then. I think it even transformed but was very fragile. I put up with it as it was a put together toy unlike that Cyclone that came assembled and always seemed to crumble apart. This new version looks pretty good. Maybe I'll watch Macross II again one day to see if I like the show enough now to get a modern version of the toy.

If you're referring to the ET version, you may want to reconsider that statement. If you really want a VF-2 toy, I suggest waiting to see how Bandai's HMR version turns out. It already looks much better in the promo pics than what ET has made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should read over the topic more. I got confused and only thought there was one version. And these repaints. In any case, these are better than the small kit I had from the early 90s.

mechaninac Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 ET's is larger. at 1/60 scale, to be sure, but it being better than Bandai's old kit is debatable. The kit's fragility is not a demerit against it ( it's a model kit after all, and 1/100 to boot), and arguably has better proportions than the larger toy due in part to the kit's parts swapping nature and the fact that ET's is an unsightly mess in that underneath; it's only true shortcoming, other than coming from a time of much lower design/engineering standards for such things, is that it's a SAP-equipped only affair. Skip ET's version entirely, unless you find one at a deep discount, and go for the upcoming Hi-metal R instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
