Yeah I repainted the leg armor and goggles. 19 minutes ago, Old Man said: sh9000, did you repaint the arm armors, or are they OHM or HMR colors? No. Everything else that wasn't repainted was swapped from HM VF-1 Super Parts. I will eventually be repainting all of the spare parts to color match with the type of green being used.

Chronocidal Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Believe those figures are meant to be 1/60, to go with the Yamato Q-Raus. So, for the outer leg packs, did you actually repaint them, or did you just strip off the white paint on the bottom panel? And assuming there are any left on the market ( ), how much do those old HM pack sets go for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 The HM packs originally cost around $20... now they're going for like $60... kinda crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have 4 sets coming in though. The lowest I've gotten them for was $50. Edited April 18, 2017 by sh9000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Urg.. yeah, think I'll either just wait until Bandai reissues them (don'tcha love Bandai's exclusive nonsense <_<) or make my own at that price. Like, I'd hope they'd release a stand alone pack again, but given their continued abuse of Ozma fans, I'm not betting on it ever happening.

sh9000 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 It is what it is I guess. With all of the extra M&M sets coming in, I can still repaint the Super Parts to make 5 additional standard sets. 9 Valkyries can be equipped. If you make TV arm armor, I will buy some from you.

jenius Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I think Bandai hasn't done HMR supers yet because they've included supers with ever set except Hikaru's 1J and the cannon fodder. Obviously the VT and VE will have their own supers so we may be a ways a way from an HMR super release still. If they decide to do the DYRL 1A toys one day and they include the super parts then we may never see standalone HMR supers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) As long as we can get some molded ones in standard colors, I'll be good, it's just sad how Bandai seems to love being such a cruel tease with so many product lines.... All their new valks with empty hardpoints, reissuing Ozma with no armor re-release, that sort of thing. It's like they always plan ahead to drive up demand for something they can release later.. but it never happens. It's like they're practically begging for bootleggers to step in and make all the stuff that they keep refusing to.

Toonz Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) Is there any other ways that I can contact nipponyasan besides their "live chat online" and submitting a customer support ticket from their website? What happen is they left out the block number on my address (thanks to whoever that wrote my address from NYP office) and my post office has returned the parcel back to them due to incomplete address. So I submitted the nipponyasan customer support ticket 4 times to find out if they have received the returned parcel but I'm not getting any reply and the Live chat online staff is not able to help (then why are you even there for huh?) And because of this, I have not received my HMR Milia. Edited April 18, 2017 by Toonz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to pay for my spartan and defender pos but payment keeps failing and their last response was something like "this is the last time we will reset your payment" then it failed again lol oh well not terribly helpful so I guess they don't want my money.

sh9000 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 They should make a TV effects set and enemy mecha effects sets. That reminds me, I still need to finish the GBP missile effects and also give each Valk some gunpod effects. Too many projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
