wish I have a VF25-S.

Is it very difficult to get now?

yes is it very difficult to get it since many ppl want and stock are limited, even there are some left might be ebay high price. still Bandai haven't reissue yet

Thanks for the advise, bro.
Among all the VF-25 I have researched, I like the VF-25S the best. Too bad it is the most hard to get one.

yup i most like ozma's as well.

can get the model kit though

thanks for sharing the website bro! the lighting and photography technique is top notch!

He takes the best pics. I always bookmark his site for other toys.

is the yamato/chogokin series needs to be painted?

Any other series does not require painting?

the bandai chogokin comes fully painted with all decals applied... i guess that's part of the reason for the price and low stock cause the man hour involve in producing them is quite daunting.
yamato (aka arcadia now) on the other hand comes painted but there's stickers coming together with it, so you'll need to spend minor hours to apply the stickers to your liking.

other series that i have, toynami is similar to yamato, pre-painted with stickers.

that's all i know now, maybe other sifu can shed more lights for you

actually the naming of Y(prototyped) is copied from US airforce ( basically the whole fighter thing is heaviliy referenced )

so u can google yf-22, yf-23 ( the real prototype plane) to yf-17, yf-16.

this model is not so famous i see... ?

Coming soon, not much info.....

1/48 VF-1A/S with Super Parts....

I like this model a lot, my first macross kit was this, the 1/100 scale from Bandai but i dont think it's gonna get an "upgrade" treatment soon...

let's read! oh wait... i don't know japanese... it's ok... FLIP ALL THE PICTURES!!







here's some of the interesting drawing from the master file book... looks convincing enough! daayyuuummmm~~



and here's how the pilot is seated during battroid mode (i know i am wondering about it, not sure about you guys~)

damn it, the price for Arcadia YF-19 is freaking expensive around 34440 yen with tax , no tax would be 32800 yen. not sure want it or not

for me too expensive so skip it

this version needs painting or not?
