right. My wife is bored at work and has started making paper things like mechanical bats, dracula busts, cars, statue of liberty, wonders of the world, etc. So I tried to convince to make me the paper monser . She is game for it but would prefer instructions in english and a pic of the completed product which I seemed to have misplaced on my hard drive. Any other paper macross products would be cool as well. I know that there was a thread about this with cool links a while back but I can't find it. Thanks in advance guys

gainsville/keystone work/home . I am UF's pool b1tch... I mean pool boy

Greenguy lived in gainesville and I hung out with him a couple of times. haven't talked to him since I got in a fight with my old cell phone [i won ] and lost his number. I know there was a member near orlando I had to do a swap with [we each got the others item in a mw sale and t'was easier to meet and swap than ship stuff] but I forget his moniker.

I'm always down for finding more people to sell stuff to... opps, I mean people who share my passion

Here is the Arabic Valk I spoke of:

DAMN!!!! That's the first time I've seen or heard about that... one more impossible to find valk I have to add to my list

hey now people. I better not be the 1/55 expert around here else who am I gonna ask questions

anybody got pics of the arab vf?

anybody have a 1/55 matsu 1j instruction manual they can scan?

almost time to revisit the 1/55's revisited thread again

dunno anything about this item. I was drunk and bidding... kinda like now .

Reideen The Brave Gold Version Action Figure NIB Item number: 150043874457

what exacly did I win and was it a good deal? I didn't think I would win at the opening bid and often find it easier to bid the opening rather than watch the item as my watch list is often full. Sometimes I win stuff I didn't mean to though. oh well... have to skip lunch one day this week to pay for more useless crap

oh yea... the $20 vf was a wash. My payment was refunded as the friend he was selling it for backed out. He kept me informed so I'm not bitter and I really should be saving up for the few 1/55's I still haven't aquired.

oh yeah... I enjoyed this auction.

Item number: 320032201915

I should have bid just because I've never won an auction for a penny

I kind of wanted the "talgesse" arch enemy when I saw it at tru but it was gone when I came back. I wouldn't mind a rx to go with my realtype's and musha's as supposedly "They are nice though and are in scale with the 1/100 models"

actually I am hoping to quit gundam collecting once I aquire the two realtypes I don't have...

Sad... I have triples of one musha, doubles of another, and am shy the 2 non-musha realtypes... somewhere something went wrong . anybody have a knight or command they want to trade?

did you finanlly figure out a four legged vf? I've been trying to figurer out something to do with my excess legs for a while now

add sh002 to the list for a well described and priced yammie 21 I can display in fighter

nice pieces.

collection... crap... I really should clean that room soon . Maybe if I'm lucky I will find that elusive sdf-1 arm I haven't seen in 2 years. honestly I will probably just throw eliwiens matsu 1j on the growing pile in the center of the room and plant more citrus tree's and bamboo instead

It's nice to have displayed toys but I love my collection enough not to trust it around my wife or pets. I never let the wife drive the camaro either... and she bought it for me

hmmm... missles are always good. I need to start recasting stuff myself. anybody else doing 1/55 work is wonderful in my book. one day when I have some free time you will all get to see how disturing 1/55 custums can be

long live the 1/55

only 4 to go

check out this guys shipping from Lai Chi Lok, Kowloon, Hong Kong!!!!!

Macross: 1:48 Complete Transformable VF-1J Hikaru Ichij Item number: 190039557891

check out his combined shipping!!!!!!!!!

pleasent change from the normally absurd in the other end of the spectrum auctions.

whoever buys them owes me a favor . I'd buy one, or two, myself but I'm trying to piggyback a 0a order with a friend so I'm poor as always. Can you believe you have to buy rocks in florida as it's just one big friggin sand bar?!? All I need is some gravel for drainage... Rocks or toys...

Yikes!.... hope stock lasts until next week, till payday

ditto. waiting (6-8 weeks) for my cheap ass will suck though

damn thats a lot of stuff. To bad I only might want one or two pieces. Multiple auctions and shipping does suck but you do get a lot more loot for it.

if a member here is tempted to buy it and part it out I'd be down for...

59.) Yamato 1/100 Konig Monster X (1) No Box/Instruction Manual & Remaining Decals Included $45

thats almost 1/20th of the way to the starting bid already . who else might be in?

I always wanted to upscale the paper monster plans and make it out of plywood big enough to use 2" pvc for the gun barrels. Shoot tennis balls at the neighbors from my weird yard sculpture... never

zim the dork

although i liked the TV show by Jhonen Vasquez as well as his

comic books like Squee and Lenore.

what he said.

how come hackers never use names that I don't have good memories of...

I will always take another. After the two years it took to beg.bribe beers into squeezing one last one out of his molds I'd hate to pass on an easier and cheaper set.

don't forget I need a bunch of the arm attachy bits for mounting swords and such in my demented musha vf experiments

My Matsushiro VF-1J also has the Takatoku backplate and no instruction manual. I think it was a quick reboxing effort on their part.

Also as far as your still needed list, do you already have the VF-1J Hikaru in Arabic packaging?

?????

Pics please. If it's just a box varient, especially if it's like the itallian "stickered" taka boxes I might skip it but I would love to see what it looks like.

It would be pretty hard to lose these.......

Besides.....

The gun pod is detachable.....

The canopy is detachable.....

The heat shield is detachable.....

The Armor is detachable......

The Missiles are detachable.....

It has plenty of detachable parts. A pair of hands that help you get rid of the sliders and look more "anime correct" in fighter mode with only about five minutes worth of effort are worth their weight in gold in my book.

So says somebody who takes good care of their toys.

Every part you mentioned I have managed to misplace or lose at some point or another. Heck... I'm still looking for that friggin sdf arm I packed away in an "intelligent" place when I moved 2 years ago. At least my boxed sdf has both arms but the last thing a hippie needs is more stuff to misplace. I'm not saying that the mod isn't well designed and engineered, I'm not saying it doesn't make the vf look cooler, I'm just saying that I personally would lose bits and as there are way to many bits around here already I don't want to risk it.

as for detachable... this is an old pic and the pile has grown xxx

right... I recently won my first matsu 1j off ebay from a member here. I have both the stickered and painted jetfire matsu's but in my quest to have every 1/55 ever made I needed a matsu 1j. Arrived in beautiful condition with both decal sheets unapplied and all missles on spruce. Only thing missing was an instruction manual which I am sure somebody here will provide a copy of if I beg enough... hint hint

my question is this... did matsushiro ever make their own vf-1j or did they just make a box to sell left over taka stuff? I ask as examining my birthday present I noticed it had a taka backplate. Is this how all the matsu 1j's were, or is this a true transition piece? Did I spend that much money just for a box? Not that I am complaining mind you but if I need to buy two boxed matsu 1j's because they had varients....

Any help would be appreciated.

only three more to go...

max taka, milla taka, and that damn frenchy...

granted to have them all mib will take a bit longer

it is in fact being made for the 1/48. At least it was in the process the last time I talked with beers... the stampy was his excuse for not making me more 1/55 resin at the time . He tries hard to keep a low profile as every time he pops his head up people like me start begging. www.robsthingies.com was his site though it's been a while since I've heard from him and I don't know how much progress he has made. Between him and fulcy though we have double the chances

the beauty of the 1/55 was that nothing came off. Why make stuff that comes off [ie parts you can now lose?] . Fulcy's hip mod sure... but if he made the legs detachable

hey buddy. I have a Q ra mib I'd part with for what I paid and an assembled and partially painted Nousjadeul-Ger I'd toss in for free. How things been anyways? I've been off board for a while.

Seconded. "Auctions of Great Absurdity" deserves to be pinned even moreso than this thread.

I agree... and not just 'cause I started the first one

yippie... finally won a matsu 1j from ewilen "Matsushiro 1/55 VF-1J Macross/Robotech/Transformers

missing link from Macross to Jetfire Item number: 320024057761"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...N%3AIT&rd=1

that leaves me needing three vf's to have them all and less than six boxed to have all of the boxed. anybody have a scan of the matsu 1j instruction manual as ewilen didn't have one.

I also scored "Macross Robotech Takatoku VF-1S GBP 1S 1/55 Valkyrie Item number: 320016482717"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...N%3AIT&rd=1

why can't I get the same deal on a 90 super, seeker, and O minus the vf but with the armor At least my loose gbp is no longer loose. I could also use scans of these directions

and then there was this... I hope the seller comes through because I really want my vf-15
