How's Sentinel's version of the Cyclones so far? Both a hit and a miss I take it.. :unsure:

Some parts on ball joints have a tendency to fall off, but -- with one exception so far -- the transformation has proven easier than anticipated, and the aesthetics are top-notch, as you can tell by all the terrific photos that have been posted.  :wub:

Furthermore, Sentinel's Riobots have long since sold out everywhere, and even getting a pre-order in for next month's Ray release is proving impossible.

By Mospeada standards, it's a huge hit. B))

Nice! That background is perfect.

Thank you @Lolicon! I think I went a little overboard with the cracks in the pavement.

Loving the addition of the Roy and Hikaru HMR VF-1S Strike valkyries to my collection.

Great display but I think it'll look even better with a clear stand!

I thought it it's in line with the wasteland we saw in the series. :)

Oh god....

I actually won my first Yahoo Japan auction (via Buyee). I will soon be the owner of a Yamato 1/60 scale VF-19 Fire Valkyrie for 13,000 yen.

Edited for yah. ;) 

 

What you've done is you're now a proud owner of a Valkyrie with a handsome face. ^_^

What have I done?!  

Are you spending without having extra funds available to pay off your debt?? I hope not this time.. :unsure: I actually have a list of possible valks that I want get however I might pass on a fair bit of them as I'm being really picky and selective this time..

I have to admit... I really did enjoy watching the final episode of Macross 7. It was ridiculous... but a fun kind of ridiculous. Plus, I never get tired of listening to "Try Again", probably the best Fire Bomber song.

Is it bad that I liked watching Max and Miria fighting in VF-22's, and Battle 7 blowing up?

I know... I know.

I got carried away by what I thought was a decent bargain.

Yes, I am a compulsive shopper... obviously. *sigh* Fortunately, other than my mortgage, I am not really carrying around any debt. Just burning thru my savings. I wonder if I can earn some income during summer vacation.

Hmm.. Are you doing tutorials to students that need help? There's a bit a funds to help you out and knock off some of your mortgage payments off and don't forget to sell off your unwanted clothes, jewellery etc.. right? ;)

There are more grad students than there are funded RA or TA positions, unfortunately.

As for selling stuff, I do have a box filled with DVDs and CDs I am thinking of sending off to Decluttr. Looks like I can get about $70 from them for what I have in the box.

What is this Decluttr? Is it only for US based residents? My wife and I have a ton of CDs and DVDs we’d like to offload.

Also, for a moment there I thought you wrote “Deculture!” :p

Hey Archie. I checked and it looks like it's US base for now as per their FAQ page.

Decluttr is a site that buys used DVDs, BDs, books, and certain electronics. They have a mobile app that can scan ISBN numbers of items and tells you how much they will offer you for the item.

Some DVDs they might not take. Others, they might give you 5 cents for. Still others, maybe a couple of dollars. Oddly enough, the items in my box that seem to fetch the most money are my swing dancing CDs.

On a separate note, I wonder how much this 1/1 scale VF-25 would cost...

I'd also like to know how much shipping would be as well.  :D

Added a few more cars to the stable..

The Lotus 76 is 1:43 scale, not my usual scale to collect but being a Ronnie Peterson car I had to have it!

Indeed! I have always had a special fondness of the JPS cars, especially Ronnie Peterson's cars and have finally been able to build a small collection of his cars!

Ronnie was an amazing driver in his era and a great loss to the sport when he died in 1978.. :cray:
