I'm new in Macross toy. I started with Macross Frontier simply because of it slimless design in Jet mode and transformation. I gotten my VF-25F 1/72 at RM195 locally(but not yet build) and DX VF-25F at RM384 from Ebay Singapore. My DX unit is a second hand item but still in perfect condition. I missed out anothor unit VF-25s at same price a week before i brought this item from the same seller. BTW, although this can be a good deal, but it still consider expensive to me (compare to transformers toys) and right now I'm hesitating whether I should get the super part for this and VF-25S, especially after knowing that everyone here are having high praise on Vamato and wondering if Vamato will come out better version later.
I also notice that Bandai made the whole toy in plastic white except certain metal parts that painted in white color. I guess the color will turn to be yellowish after several years explored to the air later. Is this a common practice that the manufacturer(either Bandai or Yamato) will not paint the whole toy with color in all Macross toyline?

Ajis, you gotten your DX Ozma? I think usually sell separately would be more expensive. BTW, this XL-shop stuff a bit pricy. You can easily get at least RM50 cheaper elsewhere.
Will Bandai sell armour separately for 25s as well? Otherwise I will die... have to buy 2 sets of Alto. I'm thinking to get this DX Ozma Armour. Hopefully can find cheaper some where...
I usually get things from Ebay singapore/Malaysia or from Glory System Enterprise(Auntie Lenny) at Endah Parade Carefour, Sri Petaling (3rd floor) which near my house. Auntie sell things quite reasonable. You may call her to find out the items that you want at 0193753331.
lets stray away from the topic for a second.. Macross Frontier movie PV below
Bro, all the scenes I seen it before in the cartoon series la. Oh! except the stadium for concert... let me go back watch again to confirm.

great, thanks man for the link, I often go to Time Machine, cos the prices they sell are considered 'ok' and sometimes they restocked limited stuff too, bought Beagle Mospeada from them
I wonder why the toys here are so expensive compare to Singapore. Over there you can find a building selling toys at China Town square. I usually get my friends to buy the toys and then bring back for me later.

Yoo...anyone can answer my question below? I notice that Bandai leaves the DX 25F toy in plastic white except certain metal parts that painted in white color. I guess the color will turn to be yellowish after several years explored to the air later. Is this a common practice that the manufacturer(either Bandai or Yamato) will not paint the whole toy with color in all Macross toyline? Sorry as I'm new in collecting macross toy.
Hi! Any Idea how much Aunty Lenny at Endah Parade selling the 1/72 VF-25S Messiah Valkyrie & VF-25S Super Messiah Valkyrie. Been poisoned after seening the finishing work.
[quote=richard0304,Apr 16 2009, 09:24 AM] I thought bro wesley's into DX-chogokin..
Haha. It is the 1st Macross item that I brought until I can't help myself to own a DX version However until today I still leave it MIB. LOL
I'm still anticipating for your DX-Chogokin 25G to be arriving at my office.

Bro, is this armour sell separately or come along with alto? I believe if sell separately definately will be more expensive. But I already have alto custom.

Richard was accepting pre-order for this item earlier but now no more, mayb nobody want this cos all got alto already
Heard from overdrive newletter there'll b a reissue for alto DX this month
I saw one Alto SuperPart unit selling in singapore at RM372. Do you think is expensive? Perhaps I should get this armor with alto and sell my existing one later.
I think Richard still open for pre-order.... but it depands on the demand... Am I right?
brother, this is the most I can do. Otherwise the owner of this box of rvf-25 would kill me..
Bro, the 25-G that I brought from you is damn nice. Hoping to get this rvf-25 from you too (but still struggling with cash... anyone can pinjam with 0 interests huh? )
BTW just get my friend to buy and collect the DX 25-F super parts for me from Singapore. But in my opinion 25-G and rvf-25 with super parts should be good looking than 25-F and 25-S.

I got the discount price at SGD125. You may ask him whether he still has available stock but don't forget about the shipping charges (I did it COD). Maybe we should get Richard bringging in this item instead.

Hi, I have challenges installing the super parts that i highlighted in yellow below. Somehow the bullet point is too small to fit into the hole. Anyone can help?

I'm not sure whether this is a defect but I have same challenges installing it for 25-G.
I have the VF-25G and i have no problems installing the super parts. Perhaps you can shave the ball joint a little like what william7 suggested. Be careful though not to shave too much.
Bro, the ball that suppose to attach the hole is smaller now. If shave will become even smaller. I'm wondering if this is a defeat since both Dx 25-f and 25-G ' super parts are exactly the same.
