Hi-Metal R

I'm surprised I didn't get thumb down this time around, as you guys know I buy to hoard valks  Not sure who else here does that. :P :)  I did it with the 1/55 scale ones and flipped half of my collection for an enormous profit.  These hi-metal r are much nicer imho.

Finally picked up another regult; now I can actually open one lol (I like to keep one unopened). 

Kicking myself for not buying more than one of the missile type sets. Those poor figs will never see the light of day :(

Yeah the Regult missile set has really skyrocketed. Really glad I bought one at release, but I’m also hesitant to open them now.

Go with your gut or stick to your original purchase plan. Unless going with your gut was your original purchase plan. Then no issues! :rolleyes: 

Blue Phalanx would be nice. 

Yup I went with it for my VE-1s at least, glad I did that.  I have 10 of those, 2 unboxed.

LOL @ all the thumbs down! after all, without people like me, Bandai would stop making your toys.

Maybe it’s because you’re so full of yourself?  In so many of your stupid ass posts you make it sound like you are single handledly “supporting” the hobby, as if nobody else on this board puts money into this hobby.  And look at the stupid ass thing you said above, you hoard these toys so you can sell them at an enormous profit.  It’s thanks to jackasses like you that make it hard for other people to get into this hobby.  In reality, you’re no better than a scalper, so congratulations for being a douche.

Wow...

 

If you're going to cut-down another member for how they exploit their particular life circumstance and freedom to enjoy this hobby however they wish...

then I think most of the membership here would invite you to leave, and take your attitude elsewhere.

Is it time for another "collector vs scalper" showdown?  On the MWF this time?

Fixed up Nexx's VF-2SS a bit so it wouldn't look so plain. Getting everything to line up right in fighter mode is a pain. Battroid mode is best for the VF-2SS.

Will fix up the SAP later when I have time.

You're welcome, David. I'm sure it will become available upon release date. If not, NY is an option. ;)

I probably asked this before but where did you get those decals?
