Thanks for the replies! April should be good to go. Haven't preordered anything in ages, but been waiting for either 1/60 v2 VE/VT/VF-1D.

Shizuka the Cat Posted April 9, 2019 Author Share Posted April 9, 2019 Kind of surprised that a Yamato v2 Elintseeker sold earlier today from Mandarake for 30,000 yen, given that one can pre-order the Arcadia upcoming release for much less money.

The buyer might not be aware that a reissue is being released soon. Or maybe the buyer is securing one just in case the Arcadia version has QC problems or has some minor, undesirable design change.

Honestly, the Yamao VE-1 is probably at the lowest price it'll ever be right now. Might dip again slightly right after Arcadia's release, but then it'll climb back up; and the Arcadia ones will start climbing as well once the shelves are clear (based off every other Arcadia release).

Yeah I had no idea until like a week ago. I was just searching macross on NY and came across it. So if I was in the market before then I may have paid more not knowing.

Just once a day? I generally have a MWF tab open whenever I am on the computer.... in class, at the lab, and at home. I don't feel so much like a lurker and more like I came over one day, claimed 2 closets, moved all my stuff over, and raided the freezer of all the ice cream while watching TV 24x7.

Only downside there is that the PF cockpit might have more markings than the original Yammie, but the VE-1 already had more than most other Yamato releases, so it might not be that different. I think it should at least still have the modex and standard cockpit markings (triangles, rescue markings, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tons of decals and even on PF releases I always end up adding even more decals in addition to all the tampo printing. Not even the Bandai 1/48 escaped my need to add additional markings.
