Cool to see your still around.

  I remember a time I would have traded my first born for a boxed seeker.

   Pretty sure he would kick my ass if I tried now a days lol.

  Good luck with the sale of this beautiful piece.

Great to see this thread is still going all these years later.

    Like my brain, the collection has gathered dust over the years...

Yeah, I am waaaaay behind on customs. Got massively sidetracked by my 3D scanner project, which I started in order to make parts for my 1/55 customs. That scanner has been my nemesis for over a year. I'm down to what is likely my last attempt to make it work the way that I want. If that fails, I'm going back to making customs, so either way I'll be updating that thread in the next few months.

I stumbled across some of your old stickers in an envelope the other day. Do you still have that poor abused alps printer that could print white? That thing was a life saver for many of us 20 years ago lol.

Unless the site was compromised, I am doubtful that somebody like myself who hasn't been on in years would be a target for scammers. 

  If I try to sell anything in the next few weeks ask a lot of questions;)

Just curious who the current 1/55 customizers, rebuilders, and parts hoarders are? It's been a while since I've been on. A long while...

   Like before 3d printing was around while@-@

   There has to be a ton of cool customs and printed parts I've never seen or knew existed.

Is this why I got an email and had to upgrade the security on my password?

   Actual a good thing as I haven't been on the forums in a long time. I'll have fun finding out which old timers are still around:)

I think I have some of a 1/72 yellow submarine ve-1  kit that I was going to kit bash with a 1/72 hcm. Pretty sure all I got around to was mounting the head. Maybe... been a while since I have seen it in the room of nonsense.

wow nightmare@_@
A few I have never seen b4!!!

been a number of years since I've checked in. yay adulting...

   looking for a cheap non broken toynami masterpiece beta to go with my sue alpha on behalf of my son. No point inheriting one without the other. I will happily buy if the price is right, or trade. lord knows I have stuff to trade,.... all older and dusty...

are MIB clear 1/48 fast pack covers worth anything?

monkeys live on!!!! my toddler already threw one at me!

i probably have one lying around buried somewhere. me finding it in a timely fashion is something else. Ill try and remember to look while organizing that room.

get a takara soundblaster. he holds two tapes.

add

I have a hik 18 and a brownie boxed lying around but I will need to check on the condition.

how does one know if they have a new or old one? I have one still sealed in box and have no clue.

When I sold off all mine I think the joon's averaged around $50. I think the non bandai that sold for the most were the matsu star fighter, the chinese strike without armor, the chinese super with blue armor, the space gandam, and the green joon's. I only picked up the "patriot" red/white/blue joon's just because I had to have one of every version 1/55 ever made. You should be able to get a reissue bandai brownie cheap enough and the bandais/takatoku/matsushiro were the best.

an ebay link sometimes helps...

the seeker comes with strike parts?

I have a taka vf-1J 1/55 complete with unused stickers, instructions, gun, gun clip, missiles on spruce, extra decal stripe sheet, and catalog in a pretty good box. box has some corner wear. Early production as the plastic window was applied to the styrafoam and inserted into the outer shell, rather than be glued to the inner box.

I have the vf-1a brownie 1/5 with unused stickers, gun, gun clip, missiles, and catalog in a decent box. Box has some small corner tearing and a tear on the face where the box cutout sticks up from the bottom. Also has some window denting.

both vf's are in very nice condition mechanically. I do not believe I have transformed them since acquiring them as I had loose ones to repair and play with. I can take pics if you want.

All my other taka's are loose... I think. As I dig deeper into that room now that a child is going to arrive before the year ends there is no telling what might turn up. Need any cloth musha gundams?

somebody has the milla in the for sale section right now.

for us old fogies who forget that there is new stuff... what scale are they?

looks nice. Perfect transformation aka 1/55 bandai or removable bits like 1/60 yamato?

bandai strikes aren't cheap. I will look around to see how many I have lying around. I assume you want complete and boxed? Resin parts acceptable?

found a ve mint in minty looking box unassembled and still in sealed bags with all paperwork. I also found an armored 1J that has been assembled. It has it's shelf worn box and used sticker sheet. No instructions. One head laser on the big head has broken off but the parts is there and could be fixed. Missiles are still on spruce but I found no gun for it in the box and it appears to be missing one arm armor.

I also found a mint in box ve version of one of these while I was looking. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Arii-Macross-SD-Super-Deformed-VF-1S-Strike-Valkyrie-NMIB-Robotech-/160773389312?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item256ed73c00

I might have a second ve boxed lying around. I will take a look. if you don't hear back remind me.

I'll happily vouch for chowser as he helped me out a number of times when I was trying to get every 1/55 version ever made. Sorry to hear about the situation chowser and good luck with the sales.
