- Scorched Earth Toys @ anymoon.com and / anymoondotcom takes a gander at Bandai's DX Macross Worldwide VF-25 Messiah toy. This 'never seen in the animation' paint scheme celebrates Harmony Gold dropping its claims to all Macross sequels, officially allowing BigWest to profit from international distribution.
He’s alive!!!
Praise be to Jesus, the goat has returned
Would that be praise to...Messiah? ❤😉

Leave me a comment to let me know what toy needs a review!
Welcome back! I'm glad to see you had the chance to pick up some of the new releases. Hopefully, more reviews will be seen in the future from!!
Looks like Macross is back on the menu boys!!
robotech rocks
Yes it is! I am sure Tomashi Nations from BanDai will still have some Japan exclusive items, the most recent license renewal allows Macross direct sales to most of the world. Hence the name of this Anniversary release.
(:
it's about time, getting sick and tired of scalpers and the limited supply constantly causing a frenzy
Was so excited to see this NA release I bought one for myself as a birthday gift. Little did I know that the supply would far exceed the demand and I could have gotten a good discount if I happened to wait 6-7 months after its initial release. But agree it’s a fun toy… especially since I haven’t had a new Valkyrie since the 1980s!
Thank you so much for doing a review of this figure and welcome back! I'm so glad to finally hear an honest review of the toy. Very much appreciate the comparison to the Renewal versions and any changes, no matter how minor. I was never a huge fan of the Renewal toys, they were always just okay. Not terrible, but outside of fighter mode they lack the solid build of the best variable fighter toys. So I was looking for any major changes to the build in this new figure. Again, thank you for your fairness and candor in the video, it's all too rare in toy reviews. Looking forward to more, especially now that the Hi-Metal R line is back with a bang!
He lives! Geezus, it's been a long time since you've posted.
I'm glad you're back, Anymoon, thank you for the revie
I've always wanted one of these transformable models, the Aniversary VF-25 is my first and I absolutely love it. I was watching you're videos prior to learn more about these models it's nice to see you do a review on this one.
Same here, good comment.
Where can I find this at a good price ?
@ytvandre I 'm not sure. I got mine online from Japan via Ebay before they were released in Canada. It ran me $400 CAD, including shipping. The price is pretty much the same in a Canadian anime model shop.
Glad to see a new video! you can tighten up the shoulders on your "Micheal" toy with some blue loctite. It's a thermoplastic and can tighten up any metal to metal joints that have loosened. I have handled my WWM VF25 a lot these past six months and the joints are tight thanks to good old blue loctite.
I'm interested in how you repaired your shoulder joints. Did you disassemble the joint before applying the loctite or do you apply it similar to floor polish where you squeeze it into the joints and sort of move it around to mold it? Are you using the loctite thread locker blue that I see on amazon?
@@utinni1715 that's exactly how I do it for the shoulders. It's best to loosen the screw on the underside to help get it in there, then tighten down before it sets. For the hips, I tool the legs off by loosening the three screws and I coated the ball in blue loctite. Yes the blue threadlocker is the one. Red is too permanent, the blue can be removed.
@@aarronwootton just so i understand better i am assuming youre talking about working the loctite into the joints and not disassembling it. From what youre saying, the loctite dries sort of like a soft plastic? Also thanks for sharing this, ive always heard of the floor polish method but i was never sure if it worked well on metal joints (i may be putting too little layers or something).
@@utinni1715 yes, that is what I meant. Apply and wiggle the joint to work it in. Disassembling to apply works great as well.
Welcome back!
So glad to see you back sir.
I hate that shoulder joint issue you had on your 25G toy. Currently dealing with the hinge on my Isamu Durandal, it still loosens after I drop some superglue on it.
Great to have you back!
Welcome back Macross community is so glad to see you
Welcome back, I miss your reviews!
Well hello there, thx for the review and have to admit your channel has rekindled my enthusiasm for this genre. I've purchased the
VF 171EX
YF 29 30th anniversary
YF 25 Prophecy.
Got my eye on other form an ebay seller from Japan.
I've accepted the monetary commitment to this hobby and happy that now the global release will make it a little easier financially to collect some of the newer releases...
YATTA✨💖✨
Welcome back sir!! You've been missed! Great review as always! 👌🏻👍🏻👏🏻
First of all, welcome back, second, great to have you back and third as always great objective review!!
Oh my god man, you have finally returned!!!!!
There’s YF19 premium finish version and a reissue of VF19kai.
Yes u are back. We need reviews. Lots of reviews. Welcome back!!!!
Jenius, so good to see you back!
For a moment I thought this was a dead channel, just as I was getting into watching the majority of your content. In any case, welcome back to the game.
Excited that youre back to review this. Ive been hesitant to open mine since some forums talked alot about qc or material issues and I am interested on your thoughts about this. I believe I read that from one forum that a lot of people got broken joints that snapped if i remember correctly and some reviews reporting that the plastic feels cheaper or thinner than previous releases.
I didn't notice the plastic feeling cheaper, it just has a different finish to it. I did see some complaints about people getting ones that didn't fit together well but I think that's the usual % of bad apples that slip past QC. Mine came out very nice and I'm very happy with it.
@@ScorchedEarthToys Thanks alot for the reply, I look forward to your future reviews!
Some of the joints can snap, but this is also just part of executing the Macross designs in ( mainly ) plastic, with metal interacting in places. The tail, hips, and shoulders especially have been previous weak spots, but I think BanDai has mostly solved their issues with those to a large degree. Have not handled a "version 1" DX VF - 25 toy, so can not comment on the thickness of plastic, but this toy feels plenty sold and that it can last. The special Anniversary toys generate interest, but move kind of slow after initial hype. This video made my day better, and this BanDai DX VF - 25 toy can be lots of fun - and the mate paint and plastics are like a premium they added. I would recommend this toy, even if is the only Macross Frontier mecha in your collection - it can fit in.
@@wills2140 thanks for the insight, im glad this release seems alot better than i thought. I have a second hand vf 19 and durandal which have held up pretty well. I was excited for my first on release dx macross purchase but i was just hesitant on opening it since i saw a report(s?) of catastrophic failure in the joints which i havent seen on other vf 25 renewals. I definitely feel like i can rest easy with this review and your experience!
Welcome back! Nice to see a new review, love the colors this VF has, hope they re-release Ozma VF-25, I think this month bandai will re-release Alto's VF-25 with Superparts in matte finish just as the WWM version and Mikhael's VF-25 with Superparts is also scheduled for release later this year.
WELCOME BACK,
Question: Does old fast pack versions say from version 2 fit?
2:14 nice to see/hear you're back.
Glad to have you back! Thanks for the review
Welcome back! I remember the days where I kept checking the channel for updates but it's nice to get new Macross figure content now.
Keep up the great work!
Hope you check out the worldwide release of the yf-29 and upcoming 25super revival.
Good to have you back, mate!
OMG its been a while I'm so glad you posted your pretty much the only person I know on youtube that does reviews like these thank you for everything you do!
I was worried sick. Glad to here your voice again.
I have this model! And welcome back!🎉
Have you seen Macross Delta Movie: Absolute Live yet? Granddaddy Maximilian Genius showing his Granddaughter and the next gen pilots how its done. The return of the Megaroad 1. They only show it for a brief moment but you can see two silohettes in the window of the bridge just before it folds out. Thats got to be Hikaru and Misa. Hope their story gets told someday.
Hey! It's great to see you back!
Welcome back Jenius! I am so glad you are back doing video reviews! Was the YF-29 Max Custom a hint towards your next video? Thanks again! Love the video 😊
Not the NEXT video... but it's lurking around the photo station waiting for the spot light.
@@ScorchedEarthToys
Can’t wait to see what it is! By the way, good luck with your home renovation! We just dropped $15k on new windows! Quite the process! Anyway, can’t wait for the next video!
I wonder how much bigger would the toy have to be to include a Cyclone in storage mode in all 3 modes. When one uses a shield they are not cowering. They are waiting for the right time before continuing the attack.
Welcome back!!! - thanks for your content! really happy you are back!
Hi! So happy to see a new video from you!
Yooooooooo!!!!! Welcome back! And with the hype music!
Made my Sunday
I dont see a much of a difference in the renewal versions. I did notice price drops on the older renewal versions however probably because of the new renewal versions anticipated to be released.
Agreed, minimal difference other than the matte finish between this toy and the 'renewal' toys. I think they're calling the upcoming reissues of the renewal toys "revival toys" with Super Alto and Super Michael leading the way... hopefully Armored Ozma not far behind.
Glad that you're back.
Welcome back sir. Good to see you uploaded a video again.
Glad to see you post another review especially for the first DX figure I've ever gotten.
I was just thinking it was a shame you seemed to have left the game just as Macross toys are really starting to reach wider audiences easily.
Welcome back.
Nice review, they fixed some part BUT not others, the articulation is the most important part of an articulated toy, especially if you change the position frequently =P, that made a evident difference on the past version, I can't velibe they realese the toy with that kind of problems and took some time to fix it... Weird, on the Gundam reviews don't exist that kind of details.
I'm so happy you back on TH-cam, I waithing the next review!.
Good to see you back
Welcome Back.
So glad you’re back! Love your videos!
Welcome back! I missed your reviews.
I was thinking to start my own channel to cover your absence but… that would imply to open my boxes and I have the “collector syndrome “. 😅
He's back!!!
Welcome back! Will you review the Hi Metal R VF-0S?
It's in the pile waiting its turn!
Glad to see you upload. Great as always.
I am glad to have you back! YAY! I missed your reviews! Hey also have you seen some of the new Armored Trooper Votoms releases?
Yo man you're back 😭👏👏👏👏
Glad to see your take on another figure, especially one you're so happy with! How do you display your collection? Would love to see your setup if you have one.
Sadly, no display cases. I have a basement full of storage cabinets, definitely nothing impressive to look at.
@@ScorchedEarthToys That is a most important problem for the collectors, they must to find a way to disassemble the box for an storage.
Got mine on release state side and its about damn time. Importing these were a nightmare with crazy high costs and worse aftermarket. Was my first DX Macross kit and I also got the renewal Alto Tornado Expansion pack which is fully compatible. Assembed next to my YF-29 Max DX and they're so mean together
어서오세요~~~
기다리고 있었습니다!!!
😍😍😍😘😘😘
Hey there. You're back
I took apart all my older renewal figures shoulders and put a healthy amount of wood floor polish in there and tightened them up like new. Get great pose out of them now and they hold it.
Thank God you're back!!!!!
My nephew had a ton of the original metal transformer toys when he was a kid and then passed onto his cousin then he gave them away. 😥
thank you for your reviews. there are several macross figures came out, i wish you are going to review them soon. I hope you are doing well. Looking forward to more of your macross figures reviews!!
Welcome back.
Man it’s been a long time I have missed your videos and you
Good to see you back! Yack, DeCultire
He's back!
Finally!!!! You return!!!!!!
Welcome back Sir! Great review as aleays!
wow.. long time no see your video review...
can this ver be attached with Super or Tornado Parts from other first gen DX VF-25 (not Revival ver.)
Yes, all accessories will work.
Just want to ask the shoulder - elbow join, how to avoid scratches when turn back to fighter jet mode, i mean not much i can do, the metal back plate are rigid and the part form is tend to scratch, even when i careful to move it... Mine already scratched in few parts 😢
I think you just have to embrace it as "weathering"
welcome back❤
Welcome back!!!
I'm confused, does the plane turn into the gerwalk then into the battloid, or are these 3 different toys? Sorry, but I didn't see it transform in the video so I'm unsure. Thanks.
Yes, sorry, I do separate transformation guides from reviews because sometimes people have their new toy and just want to walk through transformation with a video. Search my channel for VF-25 and you'll find guides forward and back for transformation (I might have forgotten to add the cards).
I love toys that are so good that it satisfies your nostalgia to the extent that youre done buying anything else in that series LoL. Exciting and a blast from my Robotech past.
I pick that one up and never knew there was a co-pilot seat. Thanks
Ordered the new VF-25F and VF-19 Kai reissued
HES BACK
you are back😮
Does anyone know if this MWW edition VF-25 is compatible with any of the armor/weapon packs that have come out?
100% Compatible, though the finishes will be slightly different since this is matte and those are glossy, shouldn't be much of an issue though.
Guys, this figure is super cool. My first Bandai DX Chogokin valkyrie, and I love it.
Yay you're back!!
Could you review the Bandai Hi Metal R Roy Focker VF-0S?
Geez, why did you skip the transformation parts? That's the part that I came to see! Part of the fun is watching how you make them transform in real time.
I do separate transformation videos so people who just need help transforming their toys don't have to skip through the review.
I will buy when Bandai releases 1/35
Also intro is actually good .
OMG you has returned🎉
Thank you for the review. Awesome as always
Hello, what prior released accessories are compatible with this vf-25? Thank u
any made for the 'renewal' version will work with this toy.
Glad to see you back :)
You cameback?! god bless u
Yay! To celebrate your return, I've thumbs-up everyone before me.
Styrofoam bad! Clam shell, okay-ish!
So beautiful
nice review , would have prefered ozma's head version rather than alto's ... anyways ....
It is great to have @SchorchedEarthToys back, isn't? I think BanDai chose this over Ozm's model is because they used her VF-29 for the 35 th Anniversary edition.
(:
One quick question, is this version compatible whit the VF-25F armor?
Yes, compatible with all renewal type armors.
So happy!!
@ScorchedEarthToys Hey which would you get if you could only do one? This or the Live!!! VF-29 Durandal?
I'm a bigger fan of the YF-29 with its built in missile bays BUT plenty of people would tell you I'm crazy.
@@ScorchedEarthToys thanks, I am leaning that way as they are only 40 bucks apart at my preferred store!
