Hasbro was able to use the Valkyrie mold for Sky Fire/Jet Fire but didn’t own the rights for the animation. The one time that the toy was wayyyyy better than the cartoon.
@@dhu55ein9 15 years ago my local comic book store had one mint in box for $175, so that's not too bad. They had another like new, out of the box for $75, and i could not resist. In 1999, before the new Robotech/Macross wave of modern toys arrived, these things peaked in price, and they were simply too expensive to buy.
Bandai made Robotech Valkyries from the Jetfire design by Hasbro, even has the same die cast parts. You can find them on Amazon, they’re pretty pricey now tho... $519
I bought this and the VF-1A (Max Sterling). I'm sorry, but RUclips video cannot possibly get across just how spectacular this is in real life. It is amazing
This version of the VF-1 is just beautiful! 4:00 THIS IS BRILLIANT! The arms are mounted on sliding racks, so when transforming, you DON'T have to pull the legs all the way out, pull the arms out, and then snap the legs back in!
I believe if you want to use the way back machine Netflix has Robotech available. Not sure if it's the entire thing or just the first season (Zentradi arc).
Great video showcase! Thank you! This is the best OG transformable Macross figure till date. Too bad the missiles weapon pack were sold separately in high price. Bandai should include them in the box.
agreed. I got a jetfire like this around 1985. But this has taken that design and added bling and a plethora of improved moving parts. The design work is jaw dropping huh!
@@TheCarromkid This was actually better than staffers and jet fire. The first toy came out around the same time and the macros toys transformed better. Most were sold in Japan at the time. I had one in 1983 along with a few transformers. This was larger and far better.
They borrowed the rights to use the design for the transformers toy line, but it's from Macross. There were a few legal issues with the Robotech designs being sold during that era.
Is this a copy of an 80's toy. I had one like this when I was a kid. A friend had a very similar one with a slightly different head with yellow striping.
T-T I had the chance to get a VF 1 in two varieties as a Kid Max Sterling and Rick Hunter but I blew my money on Victory Gundam and Turn A Model Kits instead

It's an original jetfire still in the box at my local comics shop for $200
I would love it if hasbro were to get the license to take this toy and make it "Masterpiece Jetfire" lol

Where did you purchase it from?
How much did you pay for this if you dont mind me asking? Also where did you get them from? Thank you for any info you can give me.
@@michaelhoule2134 not him but you can get this one on ebay for $500 I got max sterling for about $250
I got the Roy Fokker/Skull Squadron Leader Version.
Never letting go of that Nostalgia ever again
This is just one of my dream toy as a kid back then
This version of the VF-1 is just beautiful!

Whoever engineer this, you're a genius
素晴らしい。無駄なく、分かりやすい動画でした。
ありがとうございました。
やっぱり、｢シンプル・イズ・ベスト｣なこれが一番👍
Incredibly spectacular masterpiece of a toy you got there dude!!!
Is not masterpiece
One of, if not one of the greatest animes of all time.
メーカーの解説動画かってくらい丁寧な説明＆クオリティの高い動画ですね！購入時の参考になります！（在庫があれば、の話ですがｗ）
If i had the money i would want 3 of this just to have one in each mode
I saw Robotech when I was 6yrs old. after 30+ yrs later it still impress me how cool the designs are!!
I got one later in life, and I still love it.
You dam right .🥳
Shut up and take my money!!!
x2
This takes me back to my childhood! I want one sooooo bad!
x3 - where do we buy?!
As a robot and puzzle kid I naturally progressed to Voltron and the early transformers toys.
Increíble...hasta en los más mínimos detalles,siempre soñé con tener un Robotech de juguete!!!
I loved that cartoon when I was a kid. I want this.
I believe if you want to use the way back machine Netflix has Robotech available. Not sure if it's the entire thing or just the first season (Zentradi arc).
Randy Smith Netflix still has all 3 seasons I think
Thank you so much for uploading this video!!!! it's amazing!!!
We have the technology to actually have this as a real vehicle we need to start pushing towards this in real life
Great video showcase! Thank you!
This is the best OG transformable Macross figure till date.
Too bad the missiles weapon pack were sold separately in high price. Bandai should include them in the box.
I agree. I just got the Kitzconcept and it’s nice but this is higher quality. Though it would be nice if it lit up like the Kitzconcept.
El Varitech de Robotech de la Macross saga!
Cuando era niño lo hice de Tente (antiguos bloques de Lego en España).
That`s bloody amazing! I wish they had ExoSquad and Warhammer40k options! I`d buy one for sure!
I can’t believe that I’m watching this. I still hav my red model Valkyrie when I was a kid. Missing the head and gun.
The music makes me want to power up my gun dam and smash stuff up 😂
I had this as a kid! It comes with the green armor!
Isn't this like the transformer from 1983/1984. Only with a few more things. It was Jetfire. I use to own it.

Esta muy bonito el modelo del Vf-1j ,no entendí nada del jápones 😕😕😕, me gustó mucho el video 😉👍
Does anyone know where this can are purchased? Great video by the way!
Ebay, look for VF-1J Bandai DX, its around 500 usd
I had the Jetfire version as a kid...
The original jet fire I had as a little dude definitely had a cooler head design.
basically, Jetfire was a re-release of the VF-1 Valkyrie
Man my gen childhood was the best!!! Imagination at its best
めちゃめちゃ欲しいけど
いつか劇場版のS型のストライクバルキリーが出ると信じて待ってます(バンダイよ、あなたに言っているのです)
あれ？今プレバンで予約受付中だと思いましたが。あ、8ヶ月も前のコメントでしたね、失礼しました。
How fast did it sell out? How many where made? And what are scalpers charging for this?
Amazing articulation!
Espectacular!!! Genial!!!! Demasiada buena esta creacion es el mejor juguete a escala q he visto
Strange how technology these day unable to make toy like yesterday.
A very nice video review. Thanks for sharing. 😁
this is the Joy Fokker ' s Jet. Very detailed model!
Saludos desde.México, Puebla me facinan la serie y el Valkiria esta excelente solo puedo verlo, mas no tener.uno por falta de dinero
Genial como han logrado llevar a otro nivel esos modelos de esas series que recordamos con tanta nostalgia
How soon will it be before U.S. Space Force starts using these?
Buenísimo, una obra de arte!!!!!
I want the music playing during the video.
Feels like i want to have all of this figures
Where i could buy the rolling glass
display?
I want this. Does anyone have a link where I can purchase on line?
Basically Amazon or ebay, be prepared to spend at least $500
Yes I would like to know what website can I purchase these great things
Junior Diaz you can’t get these anymore. They cost a fortune now.
@@bayareamountainbiker not a fortune. Just 500 usd on ebay. Not cheap, but afordable. You can get movie version for 300 usd. With black red striping
@@battou2501 That's like LEGO, Luke's X-wing is like $400 yet Poe's is closer to $150-200 (CAD by the way, not US$).
Where can I buy one 😁
so pretty much like Japanese transformers just with another form? cool.
I found the number of points of articulation on the rear landing gear to be just plain showing off!
Sooo cool brings me back Sugoku Kakoi
I have one of these fuckin awsome, if you get one make sure to get the booster set add on to make it pop in air plane and guardian modes.
Is this a copy of an 80's toy. I had one like this when I was a kid. A friend had a very similar one with a slightly different head with yellow striping.
This is Rick Hunter's Veritech. The Yellow Striping one your friend had was Roy Fokker's Veritech.
Fantastic model!!!!
バンダイの超合金系マクロスは本当いいですよね！
値段が高いのと、さすがのバンダイも量産キツいのか少数しか出なく買い占め転売屋が多いのがなんだけどね…
しかしプラモのVF-1 1/72だっけ？アレは、何だったんだ？前作メサイアが良かったのにね！
The hands are incredible!
Yo quiero uno !!!! Donde puedo conseguirlo ??????
Coolest warplane EVER!
Que padre o gran diseño sin perder la esencia de robothet felicitaciones.

es una figura de coleccion y es lo mas nuevo de macross, y si es caro cuesta ahora alrededor de 49800 yenes
Fantástico modelo!
Looks cool, but needs a professional paint job make over.
That's one great freaking toy
良いと思います♫
We’re can you buy it ?
EBay, or going to Japan and looking in figure shops like AmiAmi, Mandarake and Jungle.
you can't without paying extra charge
