Forget about trying to collect the classic (way too expensive) 1/55s. These look like they'll fly circles (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | | | (...) I don't think the Yamato ones have actually been released yet. The VF-11 is available from Hobby Link Japan at the link I sent. I'm pretty sure if you look around their site you'll find other Valks- they have the VF-17 and VF-19 (Stealth and (...) (24 years ago, 17-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I had a light blue, white, and black toy Battle Pod, which I bought around 1988 or so. I also got one of the (...) (24 years ago, 17-May-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
