Kinzoku VF Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Still prefer mine 'naked'. Personally not a big fan of SP. Makes them look too 'busy' and 'Gundamy' for my taste (no disrespect to Gundam fans...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fighter mode i definitely agree, battroid is where I prefer the packs on because the 31 looks a little lanky... mainly the arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me about it .....I still don't get what we're waiting for. Not a single word from NY, only a few orders shipped in the past month....like 3 or 4 if that. If they haven't sorted out that BS in June, that's it, I'm requesting my money back. Not willing to wait any longer for something that obviously won't show up.

I hope I can buy the 31J to pair with the 31C maybe a couple of years from now once space and budget permits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyffon Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hmmm, sad thing is they arent so readily available in a couple of years time unless they re-release it, and all you are left with is secondary markets, thus I now always try to get them on release, learnt the hard way when the VF-25 V2s came out and paid exorbident prices for ozma’s 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamutzyro Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 So is this gonna be another waste of time? I’ll watch page n when I refresh, it shows sold out? Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dur Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I'm still confused- are those pics w. drakens just a "what if" of them glued onto the valk and the actual product going to have super bulky bracketry? Or are those brackets THAT invisible? Other than the color, I actually think the drakens on siegfried are starting to grow on me- I suppose worst case, if I PO, I can get a vf-31F with slightly less foggy canopy?

funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Any update on the NY fiasco with the 31A release? Or, did everyone get their toys (that's sarcasm, btw)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this picture it looks like a bracket that fits over the wing, not a very thick one either. I wouldn't be surprised if Bandai photoshopped them out of the official pictures so everything looked super sleek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex GS Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 A new DX VF 31F Messer ?, most likely is the exact same mold , I thought I would never said this for a new Macross DX Chogokin release but I think I will skip this one I'm happy with my original Messer, also aesthetically speaking the Valkyrie doesn't look very good with those mini jets attached in my opinion The colors not even combined with those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Wonder how much stress those drakens will put on the wings? Will they eventually droop down or maybe break over time? Couldnt have Bandai simply put the clips and hayete in the same package as the lil draken’s add on pack. I don’t see any justification in reissuing the F just to add those pieces other than greed. Lame Bandai, even by your standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Well something is weird with NY lately. I haven't received not all messages from them that I should receive. For my VF-31C Super Parts I received a preparation mail last Friday but no communication since. Logged into my account and they showed the order as shipped with a working tracking number and all. So hopefully I will have them next week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I’ve got all my NY emails for my 31C parts—-tracking seems to be right, but hasn’t left Japan yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the price is too high by that time then I'll just give up on it and buy something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenius Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) It's hard to imagine that this will be that hard to grab... It's just a reissue with some extra parts? If that's all it is, why didn't they just put the clips in with the drakens? Edited May 31, 2018 by jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
