TAMASHII NATIONSMacross Frontier - VF-25F Super Messiah Valkyrie (Alto Saotome Custom) Revival ver., Bandai Spirits DX Chogokin Die-Cast Metal Collectible

Figure has good detail. This is on the expensive side. If you buy this in Japan, its 45% cheaper due to dollar to yen exchange rate and you don’t have to pay for shipping when traveling back by plane. Great color and is pretty cool to display. You have to be very careful when transforming it since some parts are delicate.

The media could not be loaded. Came in fast and box is in perfect shape. My VF25 looks awesome and it is excellent built. I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommended seller for such excellent products. Got my early xmas present for sure.

Alright, so this thing is awesome. The transformation is ridiculously intricate and difficult. Not for the faint of heart. It looks amazing. The model is rock solid in fighter mode. Gerwalk mode is a little finnicky. Battloid however is the most finnicky, and difficult to get it into. Suggest watching a YouTube vid or... three, as I did. Some of the more delicate pieces seemed designed to come off almost effortlessly, presumably so you don't break it while transforming it. I found this to be a thoughtful design decision.If there's one complaint about it, it's the balljoints on the shoulders. There are certain angles in which the shoulder balljoints lack tension and the arms dangle like a wet noodle! It's not a deal breaker for me, but certainly less than you'd expect for such an expensive model. For anyone who wants total pose-ability, this might be terribly annoying. There are ways to improve balljoint tension, yes, but for a near $300 model you'd expect this out of the box.Would have been a 5/5 otherwise.

Awesome is all I have to say.

This Revival version has some flaws that affect the quality and the pose/presentation of this Messiah valkyrie. It has loose joints, no correct locks of parts (including the superparts), the tabs of nose landing gear doesn't fit correctly, the nose section doesn't lock properly.In summary, for a Revival version (which it supposed to have all the previous flaws solved) didn't reach the quality wanted.I have all previous versions of Messiah and it is close to the first version in quality. I recommend the Renewal version instead of this (see pics).

It's hard to pass if you're a fan of the series.

The white color on some plastic parts are not match the others, they are bit yellowish in fact. I will prefer to have 1/72 scale model kit (from Bandai also)and spray the color by myself. And which cost 1/4 price only ! For this price I do expected better quality from Bandai ! Returned at the same day ! Disappointed !

Tutto perfetto

I like it very well. The only thing is the packaging. They send it without putting on the the proper packaging.

The figure is amazing. The new painting and tampo really makes a difference.Be aware if you buy it from Amazon UK (as a seller). The package wasn't protected and the box came heavily damaged and full of stickers and even tape. I'd asked to be delivered with an Amazon box and arrived without one. The price was great so unfortunately I have to accept the deal but it's incredible that the worst products on Amazon arrive with proper packaging and a very expensive figure does not.

Horrible product, shoulder joints were loose out of box and tightening the screws did not help, the ball joint got loose again after a day
