Awesome Kicker. Thanks for the pics. I always love looking at your stuff plus it helps me convince the wife that my collection isn't too big
-
Do it Kicker. Can't get enough photos of your collection
-
Yesasia takes your order, THEN they try to secure stock. That just doesn't work with these new Bandai releases. There is ALWAYS a high probability that they'll cancel on you. Hence why they are also on the Blacklist. They also have items on their list that are near impossible to find like some of the old VF-1 ver 2's. As I found out the hard way, they just sit on your money and keep it hostage until they are absolutely sure they can't find a source. That can be up to one month. Screw that.

TISINC aka treasure island sports. Yes, they are in the blacklist. They have a booth at Frank N Sons. Customer service is hit and miss. I've bought stuff from them before and theirs is usually priced on the high end. This takes it to a whole new level though.

Ha! How dare you toy with my emotions. )

Oh hell yes, Jason. If you made the 1/60 shuttle I'd buy that in a heart beat.

The new King of Braves is born!!!
-
I doubt Luca's will be that hard. He's not really that popular of a character... he was such a tool in the anime.
-
I don't know takatoys. I got my order in after the "order stop" too. I was able to place an order too but in my order, it says "order stop" and "item not available... will charge you when item becomes available". I think we're on the wait list or something. I guess we won't know until we e-mail the order department.
-
Wow, i was literally clicking on shipping options and it went to order stop. Crazy

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
mass driver replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Wow, I remember picking that up from the library and reading it in the 90's. I love it when he uses the the "bat tank". "rubber bullets... honest" -
Sweet display locidm!
-
Maybe a small piece from a latex glove? Hell, even shoving a piece of scotch tape or saran wrap into the ball joint might work. The nail polish does crack and fall off. That's why I had to reapply it. I just got tired of taking the darn leg apart over and over.
-
Yes, you can disassemble the hips rather easily. Just unscrew that one screw behind the intake and voila the ball joint is free. Just be careful to do it over a table or hard floor and not over carpet. The hip assembly contains one small bit of plastic that can fall out and can be easily lost. You'll see what I mean when you take it apart. Anyway try adding nail polish to the ball joints first. Then reassemble. Add more nail polish if it's still not tight enough after you put it back together. I've had to reapply the nail polish once already. Now I've just given up on having Alto and Ozma standing in their armors long term. I'm just going to display them in Battroid mode on the display stands. Using super glue on ball joints like the youtube video above might be a permanent solution but I don't have the balls to do that right now.

That is so sweet. Wish I had skills like that. -
Field trip to Kicker's place now! Just kidding Kicker. A few quick pics of my growing collection
-
Do you have any spare bazooka's left?
-
I thought they were busy at first too but Ozma just seems naked without them. Plus I like the missile phalanx look. Alto looks better in his fast packs.
-
Well, the backpack support only helps in gerwalk. In battroid, there is nothing supporting the backpack. I just hope that hinge holds out.
-
Some quick pics. Forgot to put on the reaction missiles
-
Finally got mine in the mail today. First impression, 1. The infamous intake armor actually stays on decently. The intake covers need to be removed, and the intake armors use an additional peg to attach to the intake. Much better than version one. 2. Better tampo and paint aps than the first version. I like that the missiles have a bit of white painted around them. 3. Assembly is straightforward. There are two crotch armors provided. One to allow you to attach it to the stand, the other purely for display purposes. As mentioned before, there are two sets of chest armor so you can choose how you want them to open 4. Take care while attaching and detaching the reaction missiles. The attachment seems fragile so be careful when you remove the reaction missiles. 5. Yeah, both my VF-25F and S could not stand at first with all that weight so I had to break down and do the hip disassembly/ nail polish thing to tighten the hip joints. Now they stand well. Pics to come
-
Wow, that actually looks pretty good... Damn, I might have to break down and get one.
-
That urban camo GBP is such an awesome repaint. If they had something like that for the 1/60's I'd be all over it like white on bread. Also, are those chain bases painted like that or did you do it?
-
Wow, that is beautiful
