Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Yeah that 190E EVO2 and the E30 M3 were the last of the best of DTM racing. After 1992 it just went down hill.. I really like my Rosberg model which is an AUTOart but my Gardner E30 M3 is a Minichamps, it's nice but not as good as AA. -
can say (touch wood) that I haven't had too much trouble when it comes to damage to any of my Valkyries. Apart from a few teeny weeny issues with one of my 30's which was a factory issue but most stuff out of Japan has been spot on! Even 2nd hand items from Mandarake.

haha! Sorry Saburo no adoption gonna happen! Supporting a teenage son is proving a big a challenge as it is! But I appreciate the offer of daily toy dusting though, but sadly still gonna have to let this one pass.. I was gonna say 10!?!? not even I would have displayed that level of lunacy! hehe! I have purchase a good amount of stuff from AmiAmi in the past never with any drama, these 3x VF-0D will be the biggest single order I would have got through them but I doubt there will be any trouble.. I'd sayy go for it and give em a try! I'll be getting the 4th from Nippon Yasan.

Thanks mate! -
Hehe! Yep 4 it is!! And no.. I have a full credit card! Sorry kid.. it ain't! awww! Sorry mate, one child is enough for me!

I guess the sheer size of the Zero can go towards justifying the high asking price.. you're physically getting a lot of Valk for the money! ok so no stand or many other inclusions aside but hey im not complaining about the cost.. im just glad the pre-order finally opened! AmiAmi's price at 31,400 is a good discounted price too! Heck I might even get a 4th so I can one in each mode! And now from one wait to another.. gee I'd hate to wish my life away for a material possession but hurry the F@#$ up February!!!

so my 1:18 TSM Tyrrell P34 Silverstone Trophy Race Edition finally arrived today and I must say what a little charmer she is! Detail on this little baby is just stunning! yes she cost me a small fortune but I have been looking for one of these for friggin ages! Super rare and as hard to find as a golden Goose egg! But worth every single dollar! here are some photo's to show off her lovely bits! sorry for sooo many pics.. im just excited!

As long as you're still happy with it that's cool!
-
FINALLY!!! just got my pre-order in at AmiAmi for three of em! 2 for me and 1 for my son. Gee aren't I great dad!!
-
Hmmm that sure is strange.. of all the Valks I own / owned, I've never had the wrong gun pod supplied. Maybe one got mixed in with the 30 lot by mistake. Consider it a lucky Valk and go buy urself a lottery ticket! Well both guns look roughly similar anyways.. apart from Isamu's 29 gun is the only one that has a bayonet if im not mistaken?
-
this too..
-
ok so maybe not..
-
Don't care how much it costs I just want it!!! Gonna get me 2 or 3! Geeeeez hurry up with the pre orders!!!
-
Whoa!!! 60cm im so in for that!!!

Well hellooooooo ladies!!!!!!! -
Hehe! I dont think I'd go as far as to stop collecting Valks if they didn't but yes they bloody well better release re-issues of Max & Milia or im gonna be pissed! No modifications or changes required, just give them to us already! And as a set!
-
I too have a feeling that the Zero-D will be my new favorite Valkyrie when it arrives! Love the delta wing layout over the swing wing design! And yes the pilot figure of the 30 is just total junk.. looks like a badly painted piece of left over chewing gum. And it doesn't even fit properly in the cockpit. Very disappointing. Yamato / Arcadia definitely have the edge over Bandai with their pilot figures, although they aren't perfect either.. be nice if someone with a 3D printer made crafted a better version for us all to buy! Id definitely buy em! Shame I cant afford a 3d printer or I'd do it myself!

How cool it this!!! Really like that 1st pic in particular!

nice purchases brouken! well done! hope your Ozma parts arrive soon! gee im almost tempted to get the new VF-19 just for its box design! looking very smart! -
As much as im really liking it now, I must agree about fighter mode, originally it did seem a little on the simple side of things design wise and I wasn't so sure about the more conventional looking nose and the much larger rounded canopy. The 30 definitely isn't as sleek and fast looking as a 25, 29 or 27 for that matter! But its still good in terms of a new design direction and has many positive visual elements of its own. For example the delta wing layout and the matte finish is very nice just to name a few.. For me it was more the other way around.. I thought the pre-release pictures of the 30 did it more justice then the impression it gave me when I got my first hands on. I guess I had too high expectations and truly felt disappointed when I finally got it. But the more I looked at it on display and when I got my second 30 from my father and put it in Battroid is when I started to really appreciate it and felt I finally started to understand the design. Now I couldn't imagine not having them in my collection AND yes I think I will get a 3rd so I can have them all displayed each in a different mode! Im excited for the future of Valkyrie design and look forward to firstly alternate 30 variants & repaints depending which we get blessed with and secondly beyond the 30 with the next generation of Valkyrie!
-
I know eh! Although I wasn't so impressed with the 30 initially but its grown on me to become a very cool Valkyrie indeed!
-
Haha! Yeah I think I will get a 3rd one! Just gotta find the cash first.. I wouldn't use the brackets either.. they look ugly and make the Valk look like it wasn't properly engineered to support itself in either mode..
-
Hehe yeah is pretty scary eh! But it looks just like I feel!
