  1. My 0D showed up. I'm loving it- now I wish the one I ordered from a US supplier would show up so I could set it up in fighter mode, but that's at least two months down the road.

    Hi-Metal R

    Love it. I checked and it looks like I have seven CF 1-As now- two with DYRL missiles, two with TV missiles, two in different OWL armors, and one in GBP that I'm eventually going to custom into the black and red one from the big battle in "Love Flows By".
  3. Totally, my foot is nowhere near 12 inches.
  4. AE was DHL only for me, but $28 is cheap compared to what it has been.
  5. I think it is the correct edition on the toy with the incorrect version as an add-on (for thsoe who want this consistent with their other previously incorrect modex numbers on their DYRL toys. Next up- Bandai sells replacement fin with corrected modex for all the previous DYRL DX toys as TWE. Only $50 each!
  6. Mine is 10s, luckily. Curious- did you get the Mospeada branded version or the Robotech branded version? I was going to get both but talked myself out of it and canceled my Japan order (keeping the BBTS one), so I think I ended up with just the RT-branded.
  7. I think I stole one of from my 1/60 Yammie 1Ds to pop in he fan racer- I always have it in battroid mode, so I felt I could get away with it.
  8. You definitely aren't- there are quite a few of us floating around here. Here's an old picture of my stack of stuff (underneath the Macross and RT stuff):
  9. Grabbed the old 80s Testors Macross models that Battletech used to "create" their pictures of their versions. Pictured below with my original battered Technical Readout 3025 (luckily I have a couple more in good condition). Grabbed these thanks to @Shawn's visit to Wise Guys to see the GTC Legacy inventory.

    I occasionally pull some down to play with them and have never had joint problems.
  11. AE has the order listed as releasing on the 9th, but no news form them. Guess they are still on vacation?
  12. It's also "Hi-Metal". As in, if you find a little bit of metal in there, you say "oh, hi!"
  13. I still disagree mainly because Macross is a niche market (and Mac Zero even more niche). This isn't something you just stumble upon looking around a physical store- this is something someone clearly went looking for Mac Zero goodies on Amazon and bought it. It would be like being into the Star Wars character Sabine, searching her out on Amazon, finding her Black Series figure, then being mad that the figure wasn't dressed in black.
  14. I would buy this argument except for the fact that Macross is a niche market, with Mac Zero even more so.
  15. While I am not as crazy as you, I do have most of the releases and too many multiple of cannon fodders and Hikaru VF-1Js. The one that got me in was I got the Monster. And the Monster looked lonely, so I got a Defender and Spartan. And then I said I needed a glaug. And a regult. And the missile regults because I needed some of those. And some more regults. I finally bit on a Valk by convincing myself that I didn't have the Messer Memorial scheme on any other releases. It's been all downhill since then.
  16. I have enjoyed both of them I got. I don't want to do a gerwalk mode version but for this price I'm tempted to.
  17. Oh damn, now I need to figure out where I ordered my two from. I believe one from AE and the other may or may not be HLJ?

    Apparently it was taken when he was on the way to Otakon in DC- so just a few days ago.
  19. @jenius is right. This is still such a kick in the nuts.
  20. I am hating this coloration so much and not just for the metallic. The use of white is awful- white wings, white airbreak, white nosecone., white feet/engine nozzles. It's like they had a full colored one in photoshop and started randomly turning parts white.
  21. For the I-99 thing, for future tax dealings, make sure you remove the basis on the goods you sell- your income is not the sales amount but the actual money you made. So if you paid $250 for something and sell it on ebay for $300, you may get an I-99 for $300, but you only made $50 in income due to your $250 basis in there. Not that I do tax economics for a living or anything. 😁
  22. I haven't found one yet. I just have left mine all in fighter mode. My Blue Scott was the one that collapsed like this, so keeping it in fighter mode and attached to the beta has been my best option. That and never touching it. lol Luckily, my hands are all intact on every one of mine.
  23. Yep- they couldn't get things prepped in time before their license expired. The scouts were more fiddly than Carlos liked, so he cancelled and refunded everyone's orders and sold the scouts at a steep discount. He might still have some. He still has some: https://www.meptoys.com/shop?page=2
