    I'm looking forward to the Sv 51. I didn't get a Yamato one before.

    I wish that Figma announcement was real. My bank account is happy though.

    That is awesome! I want one.

    Also if any one is looking for a Arcadia Roy Strike, VF-0A, or Hi Metal R Glaug and Hikki HLJ restocked them

    1/60 VF-1S Strike Valkyrie Roy Focker Special Movie Ver. Transformable
    1/60 VF-0A Phoenix Shin Kudo Ver. Transformable
    Macross: HI-METAL R Glaug
    HI-METAL R VF-1J Valkyrie Hikaru Ichijo Use

    Yeah, it would likely be $400 or more depending on scale. I think a really good Legioss is about the only thing left that I would be willing to spend that much on. I want to support their venture into Mospeada by buying a Ride Armor but....I just really don't feel any desire to own another Ride Armor toy.

    Sentinel Cyclone is a must buy for anyone who ever wanted a cyclone. I'll probably get Figma too. A 1/60 Legioss would be incredible! I'd be ok with 1/100 but Legioss is smaller than vf-1s to begin with right? Might actually work at 1/60.

    Yeah, even so, I might want one just to put the reactive armor on...even though it would make more sense to get another 0S.

    That was insane. I was exhausted thinking of all the work he did and I was only half way through the video! Crazy modelling skills!

    If anybody's still looking for a set of reactive armor, I'm selling mine. My financial situation has changed very suddenly and my chances of snagging a VF-0S any time this year are very low.

    Yeah a 1/100 Legioss would be about the size of one of those Toynami morphers - super tiny. I'd hope for 1/60 at least, although 1/48 would be lovely.

    BTW, that Figma image posted a few pages back was proven to be a fake, sadly. No Macross figmas. :(  But they DID confirm Mospeada and Bubblegum Crisis figmas, so I'm still SUPER pumped.

    Yeah it just doesnt make sense to me to spend that much on a fig with known issues especially if you already have the better version. Im sure they'll put more out later on.

    Oh thats so annoying. Why do they do that? I think Id rather that they sell them all until they're sold out for good, instead of this surprise second chance stuff to get my hopes up only to be let down when I miss the ten second window.
    But I appreciate the heads up Soupy!

    I don't think they are doing it to mess with people. When people cancel or other reasons they have additional items, they make them available to order and then it sells out again.
