    Apperentely DHL's shipping estimates are not exactly accurate. on my VT-1....LOL...Friday didn't happen, looks like it got held up in Cincinnati Customs, but is through now and prob be here Monday I would guess. Bummer---would have been nice to have over my Bday weeekend...

    Wrong in this case, DHL was cheaper than EMS from AmiAmi, they chose it for me.
  3. Very clean looking paint job so far!

    Seriously.....Bandai needs to finish the Destroids, the waiting is becoming old... AmiAmi shipment notification late last night, and then a DHL email this morning saying it's coming tomorrow by the end the day!!! AND texted me the link to tell them if I wanted them to leave it with my approval with no signature! SCREW EMS from now on!!! I'm all on board the DHL train!
  5. WOW! Those new Tie's are pretty darn cool! Wish I had room for like two! I had the old school white one and the old X-wing/Y-wing/Slave 1/Falcon and Snowspeeder back in the 80's. Gave them all to Goodwill years and years ago. Kept all my figures though! Have them displayed now
  6. damn... that's a good deal and amazing shipping time! Can I use Amazon Japan here to order here in the US? How do I read it and pay for the items?
  7. shameless plug -- If anyone is looking for reasonable deal on a renewal 25G with Supers and Tornado parts-- check my For Sale Thread!

    Yamato did the same thing with the VE-1 and VT-1 didn't they???
  10. He looks like a snowman....
  11. Jeeeez----looking at that list, I didn't realize --time flies!!! All the best Yamato Valks are allmost 10 years old now!!! Glad I bought in back then when they were MSRP or on sale as shelf warmers...couldn't imagine having to build a V2 collection nowadays. Wonder if Bandai figured 10 years was long enough to wait before they dropped the new "Daddy" of Valks on us! Which brings us neatly back on topic...
  12. I don't believe the TV Hikaru, TV Max, TV Kaki, VF-1D or the newer Roy have any issues. I have all 4 of those and I've never had an issue since day 1. Multiple transformations. @jeniusmight be able to chime in here as well.
  13. The hatred is deep Spanner..... Congrats though, looks phenomenal!

    Payment request from AmiAmi, they have chosen DHL shipping for me over EMS as they say it's cheaper..ok..whatevs.
  15. Great pics! Man, those F-22 paint jobs are sooo weird..No two ever quite look the same, depending on the lighting conditions, sometimes looks more metallic than painted. I've got a 1:48 Hasegawa kit waiting to be built, but I have no idea how I'm gonna paint it to get close to that look.

    Looking good! This little guy is my BDay present to myself this month, so I'm excited to see him!
  17. I'm in the middle of the same build..I wish I could find someone here who could make canopies for this kit, I have both sets of mine that came with it, but I can't make either one work properly.
  18. that's freakin awesome!

    PO CANCELLED!!!!! OMG!!! It's horrible!!!
  21. Why Yamato never did that scheme in 1:60 Ver.2 is just beyond me..it would have sold like crazy.
  22. which is a shame.....cause I'd probably buy one. NO good DX Valk should be cast into the hate filled pit of only 1 run per mold...*cough* YF-30 *cough*
