  1. Hi All, 

    Doing a little self-promotion here, but I ended up ordering two of the riobot Stig mospeadas, and have decided I only need one. I've got one in the for sale/trade section MISB for a pretty aggressive price (170 shipped) as I kind of want to move it and make way for other stuff. Let me know if you're interested. 

  2. Hi All, 

    The sale fell through again, so I am re-listing the item at the same price. I have been nominated to the straight shooters list multiple times. 

    1/12 Riobot Mospeada Stig Version MISB - Sold

    Let me know if you're seriously interested, thanks!

    I thought you were going to try using a proxy like fromJapan to preorder this item at the japan p-bandai site?  I think their fee is not bad either.

    They are working on a 3rd batch since the 2nd one ended so perhaps you can request a quote from the proxy.  It should be cheaper than the store you preorder from.  Can you still cancel?

    Updated on August 29, 2017 With 
    popularity received, 【2018 shipped from March 】 Has ended the order. 
    We are scheduling a third order after changing the shipping month. We will inform you on this product page as soon as it is decided.

    Thanks for the info man. Actually, black nova let me know that my order will be a part of the third batch as well, but unfortunately I cannot cancel. 

    It's not too big a deal though, since these black nova guys luckily don't require up-front payment. 

  4. Welp, I splurged and grabbed the GFFMC Wing Zero at Black Nova Toys. Never used their site before, but digging around suggested it was a legitimate place, and their customer support was on point and in english. 

    Still a pretty penny tho ($340 after shipping :unsure:). 

    Whatever, I've dreamt of a figure like this since I was a child (Endless Waltz premiered in the U.S. when I was in 2nd grade, and the wing zero EW has always been my favorite robot from any anime. No wing zero figure really lived up to my expectations until this). We all know how much of a let down the perfect grade is/was.

    More like an opinion.

    I like PC's because all the flexibility you have, also Free multiplayer and better prices in games and variety of controls.

    Also mods, emulators and retro-compatibility.

    I definitely shared this opinion back when I was doing my bachelors (still have a PC), but these days, the ease of consoles and consolidation under a single network (i.e. PSN) has really made me appreciate the console experience. I also have the "Pro" PS4, which brings me close to a decent PC experience in terms of graphics.

    Also, I can reasonably compete with people on console with a gamepad, but people on PC with m/k are just too good for me to keep up with online multiplayer these days :p

  6. I feel this on a lot of levels. I have to take out loans > $30,000 a year just for school, and I will need to continue to do this for the next three years at least (with no income to offset this).

    I have cut back on collecting. However, I don't want to completely abandon what I'm interested in. My strategy is to buy a figure that I want, keep it for a few months, and then sell it to make up the cost of the next figure I'm interested in. This has kept costs low, while letting me experience a lot of different figures. 

    I'm not particularly attached to any one item, so this is easy for me, but may be more difficult if you're interested in holding on to everything you buy.

    Maybe NYU college kids too poor to buy them since they pay like 60k+ a year just in Tuition alone and living in Manhattan is expensive as hell.

    Completely off topic, but I interviewed at NYU for medical school and was staggered by how expensive everything is. I stayed in the most sketch hotel/dormitory (with four strangers sharing a room) and it was still > $100 a night.  

     

    More on topic, I'd like to use my switch a bit more, but the sparsity of games got me frustrated. I had a Wii U, so a lot of the recent "new" announcements don't do anything for me. Just wish splatoon was coming out earlier in the summer. 

  8. Hi All,

    I have a set of super parts for the DX VF-31J Hayate version that I no longer have a need for. I just want to make back most of what I spent on it. I am asking $80 plus shipping (preferred within the continental U.S.). 

    Please shoot me a PM with any questions or a shipment quote.

    Thanks!
