  1. Thanks for the links. Yeah I remember passing on all of the TV valkyries. Probably should've bought them anyway. Oh well...
  2. My original Takatoku VF 1S and Joke Machine are as solid as the day I bought them. May the toy gods bless those things and the people that made them. As for the newer toys, do I have any recourse for my '0S? Does someone make extra hands or do I have to wait for someone that's scrapping theirs or send my '0S to physical rehabilitation?
  3. Ok, so buy an Arcadia version? The Yamato being a froppy mess doesn't surprise me...
  4. *SIGH* one of the variable fighters I never got around to buying when I stopped collecting years ago was the SV51. I'm looking into them now, but what are the issues other than the legs do I need to look out for?
  5. I hate it when that happens. Anytime the big shippers hand it off to USPS, something usually goes wrong...
  6. Anticipation is worse than death itself...
  7. How much did these guys retail for? I bought all of mine from BBTS but it was so long ago...
  8. Nice. I remember when they were reissued back in the day. Why I passed on the M & M is beyond me...
  9. I did the same thing the other day with my yamato '0S and the hands literally crumbled into pieces. Have any of you guys ever experienced this? I transformed the thing like, twice the entire time I've owned it and otherwise it sat in a box. I mean WTF man...
  10. I seem to remember reading something about '55 customization back in the day; that was during the dark, pre-yamato days, if I'm correct...
  11. There are pages and pages of these sort of situations with NY; theres even a dedicated thread about this right? I have to ask why anyone here is giving them any business?
  12. If it has to be, zero dollars. I remember buying about four sets of fast packs for the original '48s and never using them. I'm all about that naked fighter mode...
  13. Wow. ^^^^That's pretty impressive stuff right there...
  14. '48 to me is an odd scale for this line, IMO. I too wish they had kept it '60 so I could keep it in line with my other variable fighters. I also like what you said about game changing. When the yamato '48 came out five thousand years ago, it was indeed a game changer. Based on what I've seen, heard and read about the DX, it's great but definitely not a game changer. Add in that fact that I'm a total whore for fighter mode-only displays and the DX's improvements are lost on me...
  15. The chunky IS the greatest valk of all time. What other variable fighter toy had the capability of taking your eye out, stock from the box with that murderous, missile firing GU11? Lol. As for a bandai versus yamato/Arcadia there is no conflict there for me. The higher cost and difficulty to purchase the DX will make it so that outside of Roy, I will not buy anything else. In reality, the only reason why I'm even buying the DX Roy is because I stopped collecting a long time ago and ironically never got a Roy, despite him being my favorite character and color scheme. From what I've seen, the changes on the DX versus the old '48s don't justify the new expense or headache of getting into this line. I do wish everyone else luck and happiness in your collecting endeavors though...
  16. THIS. The MSRP is irrelevant when you will never, EVER find it at that price...
  17. I hope not, Lucy was way more fun and seemed to have had a lot less baggage. I would've hoped that they stayed together but Isamu is a dog...
  18. I just looked into that Resurrection film; the dvd cover itself is 100% cringe. Is it really that bad?
  19. Would that make him, LEADER 2? I was going to preorder this but then noticed they weren't showing any underside shots, in all likelihood to hide the kibble until after you've paid for it. I'll let other people get on this first and see. Cool...
  20. Lemme know when you get that '1S and what you think, as I'd like to hear the opinion of someone who hasn't been mesmerized by the DX...yet lol. As for the low viz stuff, i'm so glad I bought that grey low viz '48 way back when as its still one of my favorites. Do you have the grey V2 low viz '1S also?
  21. YEESH. Too rich for my blood...
