tis why 1/55's are my passion.. they are done for now. I still have to ask questions often as stuff i didn't know existed cropped up [a spanish printed bandai 1/55]
. But yammie is way boyond me. I scored the m+ stuff eventually and the 18a yammie is my favorite toy next to the 1/55 but the 1/48 escapes me. I have a hikkie _ gbp + f/p and a stealth with /fp and thats it. I am still tyying to complete my 1/55 colection. I worry because I do want a max and milla f/p set of 1/48's at some point in the future. If they are increasing in value faster then my army of jetfires I feel kinda stupid
what about that max and milla marriage set??? The one I saw was a 1/55 custom by a member waaaaaaaay back when, but if yammie did that

those will be added later I'm sure
. I can hardly wait to see all the halloween costumes done by will . "Sorry but apple bobbing might mess your electronics dear, why don't you show your friends your working missles instead" congrats w

most people who walk into my "room" don't really notice the shelves upon shelves of boxed macross stuff. The idiots always grab the first sword they see and staqrt handling it improperly
. Two friends are banned from the room entirely after I cought them doing blade on blade sparring surrounded by my macross goodies . As a rule the comments I get are "wow" and "you should sell that stuff on ebay"... neither of which is usefull heh. my immediate concern was for your macross collection as well... the fact that they were waving around swords at each other was really secondary...
hey, hey, hey, easy there, you might get blood on my valkyrie!
for sure... only I am allowed to bleed on my toys! Which reminds me I should have a disclaimer everytime I sell something that says the item "may potentially be considered crime scene evidence" if ever exposed to a black light
. It's only my blood so you won't get charged as long as I am alive. Thats how I make sure nobody who has bought stuff from me doesn't rob me . I can just see matlock saying "notice that there is no blood on the vf in vf mode BUT once it is placed in battroid mode the victems dying message is scrawwled across the toy in his own blood and it says you did it" -

so all I need is the 1s? thank god I'm almost done with one collection
. Then again I can buy a 1/55 for the price of that 1/144 1s so it will probably be a long time coming.

I won't even tell you guys how much i forked up when I bought mine. I basically took it up the arse. Makes me want to cry...
Shortly after I purchased my elint to finish my collection I thought I had a hemorroid, turns out it was just the stinging from taking up the arse still bothering me. I know where you're coming from.
Ha ha ha ha .....
all I need to have all the boxed 1/55 vf's ever is the
matsu 1j cib
frenchy cib [complete in box]
taka max cib
taka milla cib
to complete my collection however [i want 1 of every boxed vf complete in box, and while I have many cool valks many are loose and/or have resin accessories]
I need the above plus
box for the taka gbp giftset + instruction manual
everything but the ve-1 valk itself to complete my seeker [or a mib one
]everything but the vt-1 valk itself to complete my ostrich [or a mib one
]everything but the bandai 1990 super but the valk itself [or a mib one
]box, instructions, and insert for my "galaxy defender" or a mib one
Aside from that I think I'm there, though I might be forgetting something as I am prone to do. So all you guys complaining about how bad you got "stuck" can take glee knowing how mch I will suffer
. Over 90% of the way there and the remaining 10% is gonna cost as much if not more than the first 90% pretty soon I will be trying to trade all my double, triple, several's, etc and extras in general to try and complete this obsession of mine. So much going on at the moment else I would already be closer
-
let me know how this works out. I'm down to needing few 1/55's but this and milla are the taka's I need and am wondering how much it's gonna set me back.
-
was there a 1a?

I haven't seen the spanish one [or itallian] but I always thought the taiwanese was a good quality bootleg. Slightly beeter than joon's quality and more metal. I didn't however realize until I recieved a bandai 1990 that the taiwan is not a boot of it but of an earlier 1s. I got confused and had to ask for confirmation but the 1990 bandai does not have triggers for the landing gear or even slots where they would go. If you look at the taiwanese it clearely does. Still not a bad to and the armor wasn't bad. We need more bootleg f/p's!
Itallian... I have the itallian strike valk. the one that came packaged in half a strike box with no f/p's. It's a bootleg though and definately wasn't a specially packaged bandai. You should search out the old 1/55's revisited thread and see if there is anything of use there.

taka went under. matsushiro bought the 1/55 molds and released a 1j branded matsushiro in the uk. Matsushiro made a deal with hasbro to make a "jetfire" transformer that met us saftey standards. Matsushiro sold the molds AND the contract to bandai, which bandai then fulfilled. To be honest I suspect that matsushiro was in no posistion to make the transition from small runs to large runs and made a quick buck of opportunity by selling a contract they couldn't fulfill and then selling the company/molds for a lot more than they paid using the new contract as "expected income". Either way we got jetfire and us american kids were happy enough. Bandai should so do a reissue for takara

Just wondering what the complete taka die-cast small line up was. I know of the monster 1/240 scale
phalanx 1/144
tomahawk 1/144
defender 1/144
vf-1j 1/144 scale
and I just picked up a Spartan 1/144 scale.
I know there is a 1s 1/144 scale I don't have but are there any others I'm forgetting about?

I believe I have the orange gto with claw in trunk lying somewhere around here in pretty decent shape. I'll look for it while taking pics I promised people weeks ago... honest

a 1/55 mib seeker sooo comes before a hot chick with wings to play with. Guess I will have to settle for the wingless wife... for a while longer at least...
-
I have 2 hcm's. both loose and messed up... kinda. One came with the 1/100 hase seeker bits and head, the other has a damaged hand. less than $50 for both of them shipped thanks to a friendly monkey. Once I finish a hcm seeker conversion kit he gets dibs on the first recast.

you need fully functional mechanically sound jetfire's/ and 1/55's? Give me a pm... I have just a few. Fixing 1/55's is my hobby more than customing them... I never seem to get around to selling the refurbed ones though
. I'm trying to complete my collection of every boxed 1/55 ever and am pretty close, perhaps you have something I need that you want to trade for a couple loose ones
