    Hi-Metal R

    I have a lot of experience with these stands. for something heavy like the Super valks (or ZZ Robot Damashiis, etc etc) you have to get the extension arm in JUST THE RIGHT position to balance all the weight, otherwise it will collapse. Also, those extension tubes stress REALLY easy where they connect to the pegs and crack. When that happens they get loose on the peg and are completely useless. I had a RD Sinanju take a shelf-dive because of that.

    Finally put my max up on a stand (not using that ridiculous packed-in stand)
  3. i would just leave it. Any attempt to remove it will likely end up blemishing the area around it.

    Yeah, both pop off on mine as well. Sigh

    I just opened the hi metal r Hikaru 1J. Looks like QC issues rearing their ugly heads. My tail fins won't deploy flush like the CF does - i can see a gap between the base of the fin and the backpack on both, and some gaps on top of the fighter mode where the chest and backplate come together that are more prounounced than on the CF. I like the canopy, though i do wish a clear one was packed in as well
  7. Too bad shipping is like a million dollars.
  8. I hate all of yamato/arcadia's boxart. Just throw some Tenjin art on the box and call it a day. Much better than the abominations like the arcadia focker box

    milia is a bandai web exclusive, only certain stores are doing it. I don't know if mykombini is one of them. I know Nippon-Yasan is, though.
  10. I wish i could bring myself to just destroy all toy packaging I cannot stand how much room they take up. But I just cant make myself do it.
  11. Jenius did you ever used to be a poster over at toyboxdx? I wonder if I've ever run across you before macrossworld...i used to chat and contribute over there way back when...

    MyKombini doesn't have the time to ship my Max but they DO have time to list them on ebay, however.
  13. Just got one. I was kicking myself earlier for initially passing. Thanks for the heads up guys!

    still no notice from mykombini, hopefully soon. can't wait to get my hands on Miriya in a few months!

    snagged another Max from HLJ. I have a mykombini preordered, but I think i will be able to dump it on ebay for what i paid for it with shipping and recoup my money. HLJ is way cheaper. Edit: looks like i got the last one. back on Order Stop now
  16. Holy crap what a frustrating transformation. Im never taking this out of fighter mode again.
  17. Just got my yf-29b this morning. Head lasers are fairly straight. there is a slight bend in one but nothing bad. Wow, this thing is awesome. It feels so good, so solid, so much nicer than the Arcadia valkyries. Pic incoming
  18. Im pissed I missed out on the Chronos. I really like its fighter mode. My -29b will be arriving on Wed.
  19. Will do. Those headlasers look mostly blue, with some black trim? A reverse wash will fix that right up on the shapeways ones. Hopefully the packaged lasers aren't too bad to remove
  20. kurisama's shapeways store has some solid replacement head lasers.
  21. Back in stock. Snagged one. http://hlj.com/product/BAN960617
  22. yf-29b is in stock as well, this is weird Edit: purchased the yf-29b. 163 USD. No-brainer. http://hlj.com/product/BAN960617
