Yamato & Bandai Macross Toys

Thanks again.

I might just get the VF-1S with Option Parts and hope for a Super pack

Anyone miss out on the DX VF-171EX Nightmare?

HLJ just charged me for it, which means I may end up with two as I ordered another one from a less reputable seller earlier.

Nothing is guaranteed yet but if anyone might be interested PM me.

And that is exactly what I did.

Now, after going through this thread, I want a VF-25. Is there any chance that Yamato can get the license to make those?

where did you get the vf-1s?

You can't go too wrong with Fokker. :)

Bandai sponsored the Frontier series and Movies, thus they have first dibbs on the license renewal. It was 15 years until they gave the Macross 7 license away, although only about 5 for Macross Plus, so who knows? But it won't be any time soon. The renewal 25s are also extremely difficult to get at a reasonable price.

I am a sucker for the Fokker :)

That is what I noticed with the VF-25 renewal, they go for crazy prices and even the fast packs are pretty pricey.

I have been looking around at some pictures and I am pretty impressed with a lot of the fighter designs. I only really knew of the VF-1's because I am not a fan of Japanese language anime so I haven't really seen anything that doesn't have an English dub.

My favourite fighter is probably always going to be the VF-1S strictly due to nostalgia but I am really liking the VF-25 design as well as the VF-171. I have been reading some horror stories about the availability of the Bandai fighters which is why I wanted to know if Yamato would ever get the Frontier license.

I guess for now all I need to worry about is remaining hopeful for some fast packs to go with my VF-1S.

Ishop2 nothing or whatever its called sent me an email stating my preorder for the DX Chogokin VF-171EX Messiah Valkyrie Alto Custom will not be fulfilled. So now I'm out.
Would anyone here know where I could get it. This rather makes me angry.
Thanks.

That's disappointing.

I have an order with Ishop2go too, they still haven't got back to me. However IF they do actually send mine I should be able to sell you the one they send as I sourced another one just in case.

I'm not to confident about them delivering though, but if they do.......

If they don't send me an email in the next few days I'll send one to find out what is going on.

Thanks lord zed. as I said in the pm I'll wait for your reply. If it turns up empty I'll try looking on YAJ.
Thanks again.
