Well, yeah!:good:

That kinda sorta reminds me of the Devilman stuff.

Haha, yeah kinda. You might remember these if you dig deep in your subconscious and trigger some more 80’s nostalgia. I was thinking I would just get one to check out and open but I’m about to order a few more, lol! Magnets on feet was one of the factors that pushed me over.

I'm getting something. But it's really tenuous. I can't put my finger on it.:unknw:

Have you watched the He Man documentary on Netflix? I was never into He Man as a kid, but the doc is great! Good enough that I'm contemplating getting a He Man and Skelator!:p

I just found out Devilman is on Netflix. I'm going to give that a try. I need to re-watch DYRL first though. I'm putting a DYRL Skull Squadron shelf together and I'm starting to realize how much I missed when I watched it before. Details, details. I'm going as cannon as is reasonable. I think I'll be at about 95% (made up number:D). The only thing I'm leaving out is the atmo configurations because one, I don't have the room on one shelf, and two, I'm not exactly looking for more naked Valks. Oh yeah, it will have a DYRL VF-1A Mass Production too. Not Skull Squad, but DYRL. If I do a Vermilion Squadron shelf I'll have my fill of naked Valks.

Yeah, you’d have to see the show and the toy ads to remember if you ever knew of it. 

I haven’t watched that doc yet but was thinking about it. I didn’t think I’d get in on the Origins line but I did anyways.

Originally thought the Mega Construx line would be enough since they are smaller, cheaper and I could get them all without breaking a sweat on my wallet or space.

The Devilman series on Netflix is not the same as the old stuff you might remember but it is the same character. Much more graphic in every way you can imagine. 
 

As for DYRL, can’t get enough of that...I’m constantly watching and rewatching different Macross throughout most my life.

Commonly heard in the barracks;

"Shut up Sneeden!!!"

or

"Ah crap, he comes that Sneeden goofball"

or

"Dude, don't pull a Sneeden"

:D

Small mod that made a big difference to me, strung the bow. :)

 

Whoops, I meant how you got the string to look so perfect? It looks like you used thread but there is something else used to attach it?

That is a good looking Nimrod figure.

This is an important mod. The closest I got back in the day was to give Otherworld's Hondu a small metal chain for his flail.

Oh sorry about that.  Nothing special to it, I tied the knots and added a tiny drop of gorilla clear glue to hold the knot. I did use upholstery thread for more durability.

Got my Nimrod three pack in today also. Didn't come in a shipping box though, they put the shipping labels directly on the packaging. At least I don't have to decide if I wanted to keep the box or not. 20200901_143049.jpg.bd08aa6898aab08921d9b73d4502a022.jpg20200901_143445.jpg.c4f36c2ed3999be6d80666e7c4cce026.jpg

WTF?! At least it isn’t as bad as those CW F-14 boxes in that thread.
