Hello everyone... I really interested about the Macross Frontier topic but I'm still new in lowyat.net
The VF-25 1/100 is quite good actually but a bit disappointed that it need to swap out the part for transformation.
If really no budget constraint, 1/60 Chogokin will be very nice
By the way, anyone knows to get it?

These are the parts which need to be taken out.

Yup, I also felt very disappointed when I found this at Google.com
But it really good in price, I think only around RM 200++. So you plan to get it?
I've been looking for 1/72 Bandai Macross Frontier Alto Custom Kit, but most of the places are out of stock or stock hasn't arrived
If really fail to get 1/72, I think I will directly head to Bandai Chogokin DX 1/60 Ozma Lee.
If anyone has information about Macross Frontier figures, either Chogokin or Bandai Custom Kit, please let me know... 1000x thanks!

The SMS Mothership you mean, is it Macross Quarter? Macross Quarter will be launched as well. And it will be nice because it will Chogokin version.
I'm not very sure with the Bandai custom kit will have Macross Quarter.

Only 1/100 Chogokin need to swap out the part during transformation.

I did found HLJ, but I'm not sure on how to buy it online internationally because I have no idea on the payment method, shipment and Kastam Tax as well.
Anyone has any idea on it?

Wow... Chogokin VF-25F Impressive.
But I still prefer Ozma with full armour.
Actually I wonder the Bandai 1/72 Custom Kit's quality is good?

Wow... Future80, got your Ozma already. So great to hear that
How's the quality? Have you started to assemble already? Regarding the sticker, it really water base? Then I think it would be easier to apply
You are from Penang is it?

Hi... Future80, you face problem with the head?
I think it should be able to solve Try to ask some those who has Ozma.
Stay cool and calm.

Maybe you can try to get from ebay if you don't mind

DX is actually another version for Macross Frontier VF-25. It's not like Bandai Custom Kit. DX is Chogokin version which is fixed model or toy
For Bandai Custom Kit you bought... it's 1/72 scale
But for Chogokin DX... it's 1/60 size and it has metal part on it, especially for it's joint.

Hi... sjn hassan... nice to know you. I'm Khai Boon here.
How come can get this at such a cheap price? Includes ghost booster? Is it MISB?

Ya... agree that Chogokin DX 1/60 VF-25F / S looks more like toys. In fact, they are really toys.
I'm assembling 1/72 VF-25F Alto now. Can't deny that it's scalle looks better but still... it's model kit and it's more fragile than this Chogokin DX which comes with metal part on it.
I think Bandai Chogokin did great for Macross Frontier as well (if we ignore the scale problem).

Will see how's the price goes first
Because Macross Toys really pocket burning...

I'm very agree with you as I just finished assembling my VF-25F kit last weekend. It tooks me 2 weeks to finish it.
The sticker really frustrating... some of them very tiny... some of them easy to break... some of them can't even fit the shape nicely, the worst is, after few days i stick on it, it becomes loosen

Here are mine... just to share with you all

Yup... model kits really not for play but more on display. Macross Frontier kits really fragile. But what I like about the kit for Macross Frontier is it's scale accuracy compare with DX (although I don't have DX version). At least custom kit Ozma has neck but Chogokin Ozma doesn't... haha.
So bad that kit version for Bandai doesn't comes with any Grade on it. If it's MG series like Gundam, I guess it's plastic quality n joint will be better. This is what I think because I owned two MG series of Gundam
Anyhow... overall, this Bandai Kit is quite good. I am hoping that I can own an DX version as well, but will see how in the short coming future. Maybe I will aim for DX Ozma (although it has no neck ) because I'm putting high hope on Ozma full armor

I dare not try to put water decal on it. Since I'm not expert in kits yet. Normal sticker gives very good decal as well... just that it will fall off.
Fragile... my Alto's head will fall off when transforming to Battroid mode as well But not a big deal for it.
