Are you going to try the whitening process on it?Optimal Omegahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112470936085807477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-50648641273728817582013-10-22T09:49:25.711+08:002013-10-22T09:49:25.711+08:00If it’s a white and red plane of this mold, then i...If it’s a white and red plane of this mold, then its Jetfire, but not a Macross Valkyrie. Macross Valkyries were never released in this combination of colours. <br /><br />The Matsushiro variant of Jetfire comes with a Macross “U.N. Spacy” logo and is typically referred to as “Matsushiro Jetfire” or sometimes “Macross Jetfire”. However, although they share the same mold, it is not a Macross Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-22486098544892064722013-10-22T09:32:38.023+08:002013-10-22T09:32:38.023+08:00i think there is a good chance it is due to temper...i think there is a good chance it is due to temperature changes during shipping. At least the trend seems that way for my Jetfires.<br /><br />I was just at the airport yesterday and it appears that lugguage or goods sometimes gets put in large metal containers and can be out in the sun for hours before it gets loaded onto planes.<br /><br />It's still all speculation though....Heroic Decepticonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017245701029351849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2683625406708498876.post-61681319352229243732013-10-22T00:54:24.050+08:002013-10-22T00:54:24.050+08:00Okay, how RARE is the Macross figure?

It's not like I'm personally tripping on piles of figures but I've come across a lot of Jetfires since I've started collecting, and a good percentage had the Macross logo on the wing.
