Macross GN-U-DOU Action Figures










Posing with Gundam Universe action figure

Macross GN-U-DOU, VF-1S and VF-1J action figures come from a niche line by Yamato. Probably a line nearing to the end of Yamato's exit from the toy arena. Considering myself lucky to be still able to find these non transformable action figures, after some many years later, on local sale apps "Carousel". 

They are about 5" and come with alternative hands and display base. The hands will switch them over to either TV or movie appearances. The clear base had shown signs of yellowing after years of storage and the green paint on the visors had also smudged. IMHO, I find these more playable than the Revoltech figures mainly for the size and also not worrying on breaking the joints.

Incredibly, I have seen a few figures by Yamato not so long ago, in a local stationery store, near to where I live and that was a very unlikely place for that kind of findings, specially when you consider that these collectibles were discontinued many years ago... Unfortunately, I have had budget constraints as I guess is the case with most of us and this situation we are underwent currently is not helping too much in that sense, so I guess as well it’s time to tighten the belt and to have a more frugal life in all aspects...

The current situation is indeed not helpful bro... Glad that I still get to keep my job despite my bonus. Need to spend wisely as expenditures on toys are eating into my saving : (
