Not so much to me because I prefer him piloting Valks but yeah, Max is my favorite so I still want one. I have too many valks that I want to spend money on before I would consider splurging on a non-valk unit. The only exceptions are the HMR Destroid defender and Spartan that I got second hand for less than 4000 Yen each before shipping. Still on the fence about the price (and size) of the Monster though.

Yeah, Valks are key but I like having support and enemy Mecha too. The Monster is arguably the best HMR to date. It's basically a SOC caliber toy, just doesn't do too much because it doesn't need to.

The Monster is great. If you are still undecided then maybe go for the Konig Monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Rasp Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 On 5/15/2018 at 5:20 PM, CrossAir said: Thanks. I hope the 00 story will be better than Seed. Sometimes it was hard to keep on following the story or even to keep the interest in it. Never happened to me while watching Macross, whereas Macross 7 had a few long breathing sections, too. Frontier is still my favorite as it all began for me with the RVF-25 DX Valk I really enjoyed 00 Gundam, I think it is one of the better alternate universes. Recently I re-watched the series and still have to get to the movie. Definitely getting the ultra blu-ray collectors edition coming out in August.

Zx31 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I like most of the suit designs and characters in 00, but there's just something about the story that keeps me from really enjoying it enough to want to finish it and I can't figure out what it is.

Shizuka the Cat Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) YAY! I found a faculty member willing to sponsor my proposed dissertation research topic idea! So excited... I might actually be able to graduate in 2 years! To celebrate... I kind of ordered a Yamato 1/60 VF-11B. See... it was not a frivolous purchase... it was a one=time, celebratory purchase. I had a justifiable excuse... really! Why doesn't anyone believe me?! Oh yeah... my HMR Hikaru VF-1A arrived today. I could not get the leg armor parts to attach initially. Realized it was due to them having attached the back plate to the side leg armor piece in reverse. So I removed, swapped, reversed, and re-attached the back plate for both legs. Kind of surprised how Bandai is doing some sloppy work with this release. Also... for some reason, when I look at my HMRs, I feel a bit Jewish. It's like a minora made of Valkyries and Tamashii stands. Edited May 18, 2018 by Shizuka the Cat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
