  1. As far as the Skyraider goes, this plane was actualy announced almost 4 years ago, Admiral Toys tends to talk a lot but has really only made 2 aircraft. Also DO NOT order anything from Skyworks, they have been consistently ripping off their customers by not delivering the product, anyone who posts on SSHQ can attest to this. On the other hand I agree about Rattler and Jason did say there would be 4 variants and each would have a different ordinance load. If Admiral actually follows through this would be one or four beautiful aircraft
  2. Any one have an official release date for all 3?
  3. Can I get any opinions/reviews of the PG Skygrasper? How complicated/detailed is it? Does anyone have a comparison pic with the 1/60 Valkyries? I always loved that design and I have never built any Gundam model bigger than the 1/144 scale Wing models released in the US. I decided to try this kit first if the reviews are good and then I would move on to another PG. Thanks in advance guys
  4. Graham, can you tell us if there are any more non canon repaints of any VF that you know of coming out before the end of the year? I need to save up some money for other things but I still want to budget for my Macross VFs
  5. I actually got this figure also, it is really cool, if you look at the robot mode he is a skeleton, his face is a skull. This is by far the most original Transformer I have ever seen and it does have a gerwalk/battle mode. For $8.00 its not bad

    Yamato stands

    Well I sent an e-mail to HLJ about my craptacular experience with my stand, mainly the elbow joint just fell apart, and I was shocked when they said they are sending me a new elbow joint, I am amazed that HLJ and Yamato are cool enough to actualy care

    1/60 SV-51

    What's YJA?, Link?
  8. I could move back to Chicago and work for a close knit FAMILY that works in the sanitation buisness, but I would have to buy some jogging suits and dust off the old Zubaz pants. Maybe not, I would probably end up with a nickname like "Joey Robots".
  9. South of 183, just moved here in December, from Chicago originally. When you order stuff do you use SAL or EMS because the EMS is what I have used and I get it about 4 days later. I pick it up at the Irving PO because mail theft is a big problem in my area
  10. I live in Irving but all my HLJ shipments go to Chicago for customs? and then DFW
  11. This will be my new Tomcat http://www.militarytoyshop.com/product.asp...9&P_ID=1502 It is 1/18th scale and I want to paint it like Shin's
  12. Back in the 70s Northrop built the YF-17 to compete against the F-16 for the US Air Force light fighter and they lost, so Mcdonell Douglas went and made some changes and a few years later they renamed it the FA-18 Hornet so maybe the VF-22 was made by a different company than the YF-21
  13. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product...amp;mode=retail I really wish they would show a comparison shot with something
  14. They are 1/250 because Bandai is coming out with a 1/250 SDF-1 before Yamato releases theirs
  15. Great, I already preordered a set of Ghost/weapons from Overdrive, maybe they might let me change it if they offer a set of 3 discounted.
  16. Millia in the background whipers to Max "I betcha Roy wishes I killed him now"
  17. Except Fire, Earthquakes, Riots and In and out burgers
  18. M14 EBR 7.62, power, range, capacity and not a chance the zombies will get back up

    Yamato stands

    Well I hope I am the only one who feels this way but these stands are absolute garbage. I just got my order from HLJ and I got 2 stands, the first one is holding my new Max 1S and it wil only hold the fighter mode when the the plane is lying flush against the stand otherwise the stand just spins the plane around and the peg just falls out of the elbow joint and Max is lying on the ground. The other stand didn't even make it that far. I put the connector for the VF-11 in the peg and then I slid the peg into the elbow joint and the joint just fell apart. The joint is 2 pieces of clear ratcheted plastic, the elbow base, a screw and a nut. I tried to put it back together but no deal. The Gundam stands work better and they're not even designed for the Valks.
  20. Your lucky, The media in my area has scared the crap out of everyone here that they closed all the schools, on top of that there is a daytime curfew here for kids anyway so they have to stay home but none of the parents can get anyone to watch them while they are at work This will end fine for the sick people but I hate to see whats going to happen in the long term socially
  21. Wow they go all the way to JFK? I live on the end of a runway at DFW and I see the JAL Cargo freighter 747s all the time, I was hoping it would be on one of them that would rock
  22. Hey Dobber they processed my payment on Tuesday. But I had a large order placed, not just the VF-11, I also had my Max's, that Valkyries book, the VF-25 Alto and some stands and armor packs so most of those were waiting to ship maybe thats why mine was processed so quick
  23. I got my tracking info from HLJ and it shows it has left Tokyo at 0420 AM. Any one guess when it would arrive in Texas?
  24. Is there some holiday this week in Japan? I think that's why our valks have not shipped yet
  25. Hey all, I have a question about shipping from Japan. I have a large order coming from HLJ and I am curious about EMS. Are they fast? Who do they partner up with in the US? USPS, UPS, Fedex? Can I track the package even after it enters the US? I used to get everything from BBTS but now I have to go directly to HLJ.
