    Review for the armor parts set. In Japanese but subtitles do help. This thing looks amazing. I've wanted one of these since I was a kid and this'll be my first set. Can't wait to get this in my hands.

    Nevermind. I posted before I watched it. Was a preview and I saw review. Oops

    Me trying to scroll back through old emails to search for confirmation messages to do the same..... I really need to learn to be more organized.

    Well, dammit.....I just did the same. Works out well because the youth Wildrider is on sale at Show.z for $67 with no tax or shipping fees. I'd been eyeing him for a while now. Picked up Gravestone from Show.z as well. Looks like I'll be all in for this set, too. Along with Cang Toys' Predacons, Dream Star's Aerialbots, Gigapower's Dinobots and whatever the hell else is going to get me divorced.

    Not possible, unfortunately, when you got hands like this and eyes like this when it comes to painting, especially anything that size.

    That pink, though. Ugh..... *edit* Your display looks great. Love how these look. Personally, I even love the shade of green. It's just the pink....

    Godspeed to the true, original Street Fighter. F*ck Covid.

    Don't know how many metal heads we have on here, but one of the great ones passed. Slipknot was one of the huge reasons I got back into metal and Joey's drumming in particular was a main factor in that. He'd left the band a while ago, but his influence helped bring about a whole new generation of great metal bands and drummers. Godspeed, my brotha. That's one hell of a jam session you're gonna have up (or down) there.

    Welp....not happy about having to pay another $35 in shipping from BiJ but the crap got here in 2 days. That's just insane. Course, I'm stuck at the station for the next 72hrs so I won't be home till Sunday.🤦‍♂️ Almost feel bad about the nasty email I sent BiJ about charging me twice for overly expensive shipping. Almost

    Just got a message from BiJ that my prepaid order is ready to ship......for an extra fee of $36. Won't be using them again.

    Huh.....that's weird. I though this was the TC-02 Bee transformation sequence

    Hi-Metal R

    mantisfists replied to joppewo's topic in Toys

    This thread still makes me sad.

    I get what you're saying. I think what I disagreed with was you saying that 1/48 scale was a useless size for this toy when what you meant was 1/48 was a useless scale for you. For what it's worth, I do hope they make the larger version as more options are always better. Personally, for me though, it doesn't make sense to shell out for a scale that's in between the two scales I'd like, even if it meant getting the larger scale built. That would essentially double the cost for the larger scale I really want.

    I disagree with this completely. The Gurabs weren't that big. Size charts confirm it. I love scale accuracy and having them like that reminds me how small they were. It's why I like the Sentinel toy size. It confirms to me just how tiny an aircraft the Legioss was in comparison to Yamato or Bandai's 1/48 VF-1s. There are larger Inbit mecha.....it's just not the Gurab or scout for that matter. I think it would, however, be cool to have a Gurab or scout at a scale that goes with the Sentinel or Beagle ride armors. I realize the size makes the Gurab underwhelming on their own. But their danger was never as individuals but more in swarms, hence getting more than a few. It also makes the poseable figures and bikes included with the Sentinel Legioss all the more viable now that they'd have enemies to pose with. Just my opinion, anyway.

    I'm in for a few each of the 1/48 scale MEP Toys figures. The larger one is just too small for what I'd want it for, which would be for the Sentinel ride armors. If they upscaled it a bit to scale with those, I'd be in for a few of that one as well.

    Ummm......where's his thumb? Where's Roldo?

    I'd definitely need to keep that box for myself to sleep in once the wife saw what I'd bought. I'd have to change my name to Anton

    I got mine in last week. Think I remember a few others on here as well getting theirs around the same time from BiJ via DHL.
  23. mantisfists
    Is that going to be another web exclusive item?
  24. mantisfists
    Personally, I think this is it for me. Unless/Until they do a VE-1, a VT-1 or the Roy variant Armor set, I've got pretty much every valk I want. Ok, maaaaaaaybe I need a CF. But, that's all I need.

    Here's the person's quote. There's a lot of people on that forum that vouch for him. He has a lot of good prices on Fanstoys products which, like Macross items, typically sell out super fast and get scalped at insane prices. Because of that, there's always people who are suspicious and plenty of questions are asked. But, everyone who's ordered from that site has gotten what they ordered and for the price they got in on. I can't say whether or not he's legit, as I haven't actually received any of the preorders I have through him, but it sounds like he is. At the same time, he could charge through the roof for this as well. However, the listing does say free shipping, as somebody mentioned, so anywhere around $380 is spot on, I'd say.
