  1. I had fun transforming mine. Fairly simple and straight forward. No issues with the cockpit, or leg bars. Transformation gallery: http://imgur.com/a/2nylf My only complaint or worry is that the hinge for the back wing section feels and sounds way too tight. Just it squeals a bit when i pull it back instead of having a smooth movement. Other than that it looks really nice. No paint issues that I can tell. Hands are nice and tight. The diecast bits look really pretty. The instructions were very well done, though I wish they'd have photographed a painted version. Sometimes that's helpful for reference. It's not nearly as floppy as the VF-171 and I love the "waist" swivel. Looking forward to taking some more stylized photos. I wish I'd saved a bit more money on it.. but it was worth buying for sure.
  2. Ah. MP-10 just got re-released in Asia so the prices on those will dip for sure. I sold mine for 205+ shipping and got a Takara for $220.

  4. Link? I see one for $140+ shipping and the guy ripped out all the tapes. All the rest I see are $180 with and without shipping. I know it cost closer to $140 in the store with tax. Online is def. the cheaper option.
  5. I'm looking forward to that part
  6. Finally. Man. I could have got it cheaper from a shop in the states, and faster. So done with NY.
  7. Yeah I'm buying both Getters, the Starship Trooper, and maybe a SAFS.
  8. I have one for trade Idk it looks like chrome to me. It could just be metallic paint. I'll have to investigate.
  9. Really? It was up for like 10 solid minutes! haha
  10. I think they finally put up significant amounts of stock.
  11. Think I might skip the armor parts on this.. he's already a hot mess. Putting armor on him might be pushing things. It might look good in fighter mode.. but the dull blue plastic on the green probably won't look so hot.
  12. ZOMG I WANT THOSE SO BAD. I skipped buying up some Aoshimas to get these later on. They look fantastic. Must have chubby getters. Here are two more closer up:
  13. They already ruined the Anime with that new vocal track...
  14. Yeah probably the better choice, but I plan on getting it either way. It's not something that looks mega articulated as far as posing. haha
  15. I'm a noob with sideshow / Hot toys. Not really sure. If I see something I'll let you know.
  16. I took the plunge. haha
  17. Yup! And I'm suggesting it again Any idea on when the Hikaru will go up for pre-order?
  18. I got a second one on Tues. Hoping to have it in hand by Wed. Robot kingdom has some in stock for 200 before shipping. Ratchet toys is selling some stock they scalped for 215. Also these are all the differences I can find on the Takara/Hasbro Soundwave: 1. Hasbro's feet are missing silver paint on a large panel on the inside. 2. Hasbro's tapes are also missing chrome. 3. Hasbro's SW has a yellow paint chest instead of gold. 4. Hasbro's has white screws instead of black, making them more noticeable. You can see them on the back of the figure. 5. Yellow eyes. 6. The giant CE mark on the foot. 7. Packaging is different.
  19. Its too bad one of those guys didn't spring for a blonde fro wig and played vanilla
