depends on much. Uncreased box flap can double the value, as can unapplied sticker sheet. I saw a case fresh one fetch over $1200 a few years back and it can only have gone up. Average complete... $75, complete boxed $150, complete matsu boxed $200-$250. AFA graded 10 sealed in plastic case fresh painted wing matsu with with both sticker sheets unapplied and missles... somewhere near 10k I'd guess.

What the hell!?!?!? People do that!?!??! Geez no wonder I can't find anything where ever I go! Damn! 389519[/snapback] the smart scalpers just put stuff on lay-a-way. 10% down and it's safely yours. Sell one ebay at a severe mark-up, get paid, use the money to pay off the lay-a-way and ship it and you still have a nice profit. Kinda like buying on margin

I don't need it graded, I can do that when I sell. I just need a case to keep the box flap uncreased and the box cat vomit free

give us advanced notice. At the very least my cheap ass would have bid up some of your mask stuff. I'm not a big fan but at those prices -

where can I find one of those cases?!?!?!?!?!? I have only one minty jf in a uncreased boxflap box and want to make sure that the flap stays uncreased. Anybody know where I can get one of these clear shells?

a yellowed intact jetfire still makes a great custom starting point for a seeker or o conversion. As numerous and messed up as my spawn/vf merges have been I always started with a jetfire or vf that could never be refurbished completely. As is I have I don't know how many vf legs and nosecones extra are lying around as arms, tail asemblies and intact backplates are hard to find. All my customs are based on repaired rather than refurbed vf's. the difference being... if I can use all intact factory parts I don't care how yellowed they are, but if I have everything I need but a backplate and I have a cracked backplate I can repair... horrible custom mods here I come.

exo. Toys are better than models . Especially when you modify them using model parts. I hear good things about certain gundam kits but... I love my lawn darts and making them more detailed is even cooler. I equate it to making a kit car on a sub frame vs making a kit car an a solid frame. They will both look cool but only one can be used as a lawn dart granted I recently lost my custom cyber violatr valk head thanks to a cat, but it is easily fixible and the rest of the toy based frame survived just fine, though the cat limped for a week . as for the dark-ages... Jetfire was my first vf. I had a few of the action figures as well as a hover tank [which sucked], a tactical pod, and a shock trooper. All that is dust in time but a friend pawned me his jetfire and trying to replace the arm armors I found MW. I apparently found it at the perfect time as bandai was re-issuing at the time. I got hooked. My friend has his now completed and boxed jetfire back [it was a graduation present] and I have a massive addiction resulting from said completion as I had to buy a partial to get the parts I needed and as such had another jf tat needed to be completed... and so on and so on and so on... from what I gather it sucked to be anybody who loved macross in the 80's unless you were asian or lived in CA, the toy selection for a rural farm area new-yorker sucked major ass. Good bless the internet

this is why I keep a room closed off from my cats all my cool stuff goes into. Plus I can get away from the wife as well . 7 cats with the lightest at 18lbs and the heaviest at 27lbs. Thankfully they don't really eat my toys [often] but one or two love eating plastic bags... like the ones you store collectible comics in or yammies come factory sealed in . That isn't why I keep a "toy" room though... it's so I never again have to see a mib toy covered in cat vomit .

somebody is offering minmay guard decals in 1/48? anasazi rocks I'm guessing. As for customizing... don't worry to much about paintjobs as you can always strip and start over. It's structural mods that can devastate a toy. Drill out a hole a little to large and "snap"... you now have a problem worse than repainting.

I recommend "3 in 1" oil over wd-40 or slicon types as it won't cause any issues... as long as you are using oil based paints anyways. Compressed air will also remove cat hair once it's dry.

looks like I'm mainstream at 30. We only have 2 people over 40?!?!?!? I guess that makes sense as old people can't work computers but why only 1 member under 17 then?

nice for dead stock. I have a loose one and a mib one. The boxed one would be perfect dead stock but for the remanents of it's $19.95 price sticker . Suffice to say I paid a lot more than that for it. "hi metal" rocks!

must have been something you ate. I though a girl already yelled at you for hanging out at the all night haggus and squid cart or was it krabkalla and oyster juice this time
