Yamato & Bandai Macross Toys

Preview of Yamato 1/60 Phalanx

[Fungal Infection]

There was a time when I would have pre-ordered these in a snap but with the weakened dollar, I've had to cut back and wait till my sister-in-law takes her annual trip to Japan to grab them for me. And usually by that time, they are either sold out or discontinued.

Yeah, its around the 72 Yen mark now, so getting better but still makes it alot harder to justify the costs . That Beagle 1/10 Mospeada Bartley is looking ridiculously hot too... LINK

That 1/10 Mospeada Bartley looks hawt - too bad it'll be ridiculously expensive like the others in the series. Megahouse really need to release a Bartley to go with their Yellow and Ley/Stick ride armours.

Thank the powers that be that YF-19 is a kit and not a toy. Macross collecting is already expensive enough as it is. Love the armoured Messiah, but I still need to grab the Bandai Ozma and Alto first.

Thanks Gamblor, you just know the Hase YF-19 is going to look great, doubt it will transform tho - dunno, might just be an upscaled version of the 1/72 kit.

Ozma looks incredible in the armour pack.

In the toy section Yamato are repainting their 1/60 Macross Plus toys... again:

1/60 Double Nuts

That VF-19 is made by Hasegawa so it'll be non transforming but have superb detail and fit.
At 1/48 it's going to be huge
