sh9000 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I’m only going to order one set from NY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valhary Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I very conscious that Bandai usually sell by separate the accessories but for me this release is ridiculous the missiles seriously?....... after the YF-19 that come with all that complements and to this we must add the superparts and/or the GBP which will be the real final price of this valk? that plus the scale outside of the 1/60 collection and the lack of real contribution to the VF-1 toy evolution makes me easy avoid it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sildani Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 This is a lot cheaper than the YF-19. By about ¥10,000 or thereabouts. I do think these missiles should have been included and the price raised about ¥2500 (because Bandai.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tober Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 'Anime Export' are an option, but not that much better than NY. Otherwise 'Big in Japan', but they tend to take a bit longer to ship and are more expensive, but much better service. MyKombini are another option, but not recommended based on recent comments on this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidwhangchoi Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 wow! i just saw this. bandai serious it doesn't come with missiles. now i know what the price was so low. i cant believe they are selling missiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Will Bandai sell additional missile sets later on down the line, if they release additional VF-1 variants? It'd be pretty crappy if this is the only time you can get missiles and if you don't load up on sets now, then you're SOL. Bandai's track record with reissuing web exclusives is not great. In fact, I can't think of a single Macross TWE that's seen a reissue. Waiting for AE so I can just stick the missile set on my ever-growing pile of loot.
