Felix Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Where are we with HI-Metal-R at the moment... I mean, going forward we have Milia for Macross and Dougram already preordered. What's next? We've seen the VF-2, some Destroids, and a mystery Armored Valk. Any idea when the next preorder is, or what it might be.... Or, heaven forbid, if there will even be another preorder. Just curious.

sh9000 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Cool. Reminds me of my old pic. The tiny hands gang. Did you forget to push the lens out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave IV Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Cool. Reminds me of my old pic. The tiny hands gang. Did you forget to push the lens out? Haha, nice! I didn't do anything with the face, that's just how it came out of the box. I guess I'll have to take a look. I never really paid much attention to the differences between the movie/series versions. I still don't know which version that stock head is. I noticed it came with smooth and more squared, mechanical hands. Which is which?

Slave IV Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Glad everyone is having fun with that pic...I didn't know it would get such a reaction but that's how I posed it out the box and thought it looked kinda funny/cool that way myself. He's currently got his dukes up like that against a Glaug and Regult on my shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the square mechanical hands for all of my Valkyries. In other news I managed to open another Macross facebook account mainly for HMR pics but starting all over again.

ScrambledValkyrie Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Received my HMR Max 1J today from the pre-order I placed with JC Collectibles. Based on the higher price and the way their inventory didn't come in until about a week after all other places, I wonder if they may be selling second hand. Interesting, too... when it came in stock, their price online dropped by $10. When I mentioned this to them, they willingly took $10 off my invoice. Shipping from Hong Kong cost about $15 and took about a week. So overall a pretty good experience. FWIW, I noticed they are out of stock now on Max, but still have Hikaru's TV 1J available.

sh9000 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?scode=FIGURE-020199-D001 Nice price. I would buy some more CF VF-1A's with box damage.

ScrambledValkyrie Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 sh9000, is that a TV pilot in the VF-1S? I remember you were talking about repainting a CF pilot as a TV Focker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I put TV Hikaru in the VF-1S since Max is flying his VF-1J. I'll paint up a TV Roy to interchange pilots with the VF-1S when I finish my VF-1A TV Max.
