Ok, SOLD. I'm THERE! Nothing more need be said. James Gunn, don't let us 80's Christopher Reeves fans down! PLEEAAASE!

I'll share this quick story about customer service from my childhood which I will never forget...Huge GI Joe fan growing up in the 80's right? So for Christmas on year I wanted the new Cobra Rattler more than ANYTHING on earth, there were TV ads for it everywhere, it was in the toy catalogs of Service Merchandise and Toys R Us, but there were NONE to be found in stores...I was beside myself. Apparently so much so, my dear mother, may she rest in peace, wrote a strongly worded letter to the President of Hasbro expressing her displeasure with all of this.... A few weeks later a GIGANTIC box showed up on our doorstep with NOT one but TWO brand new Cobra Rattlers and a brand new FULL GI JOE HEADQUARTERS playset, I don't remember for sure, but I believe there was a note as well from the Hasbro President apologizing to my mother for the trouble... The power of the pen IS mighty!!! ..... Now THAT was some good old 80's customer service!!! Bandai could learn a thing or two...LOL

@Papa Rat Thanks! I'm SO stoked! That VF-1D looks like it just came off the assembly line!

I uncovered and uncluttered the paint bench this morning! Cleaned up and 99% ready to paint with my new NO NAME compressor! Just need an adapter for the hose I just don't happen to have 🤨 The kit stash under the bench is only temporary, until wife and I get the back room closets emptied out of boxes from the renovations. Stay tuned! ACTUAL modeling shall resume......... soooon..... ish... 🙄 😂

Let's GOOOOOoooo!!!! Model room renovation 2.0 is ready! Let's get busy building again! Now....to find the time......😵‍💫

I might be game, Jennifer Love Hewitt in the original was 😍!!!

Man, yeh, that stinks! I REALLY want to try the 1/48 Low Vis VF-1A Un Air Force kit as my ONE and only 1/48 fighter model from SDF Macross, but I can get the Rickaru VF-1J TV version off Amazon for $43 free Prime shipping and just do a low vis paint scheme I guess....

@nightmareB4macross - the work space looks like totally not finished yet! Soon! 😂

I own the Yamato and yeh, I caved in and pre-ordered this guy!

WOW --- $70 EMS is the ONLY option shipping from HLJ???? for 2 model kits??? NOOOOOOOOPE!!!! 😂

You guys think this is worth it if I already have the HM-R Glaug that I panel lined and am honestly very happy with? Where's the "cheapest" place to get one of these from nowadays? I have the normal and scout in the closet of mystery packed away already....

This desk checks every one of my OCD boxes so far!!! 😁 Started unpacking ALL my completed models this week and will now begin to start gluing back on small parts that came off so I can get everything back on display soon!

@Thom Cool! No dawdling over here either! Took longer than I thought but hey what doesn't in this hobby right?! 🤣 I can allllmost smell the glue fumes now!!! 😁 Time to flip this thing over and start filling up drawers!!!

Man, ALL those are looking REALLY great! I LOVE the Zent capital ships! I can only hope that one day Hasagawa gives us updated larger ones!! Hey- I guy can dream right?!

AGREED! I couldn't STOP listening to it! 😂
