Just got this beauty in the mail from MH Toyshop. 

This is my second figma, my first was Guyver 1 and I am very impressed by the finish of these figures. Great paint, sculpt, and articulation. 

And I would also recommend MHtoyshop.com. $8.00 flat rate and the packaging is top notch. Tissue paper around the figure itself, then bubble wrap, and packaging paper.

Great pics Saburo! Can't wait for anime-island to restock on Voltron. 

It was an easy choice between the Megazord and Voltron, call me shallow but all that sold me was the ab crunch haha. 

(Plus SoC Dragonzord would be better)

 

I am really hoping they do a SoC Dragonzord. Even one that couldn't combine with the Megazord would be awesome to have. 

I am definitely getting three of the Tomahawk. It is such a classic mecha design that looks sooo good in the HMR line. Can't wait Bandai! 

An awesome delivery for a rainy day at home! 

I am definitely getting a minimum of two Spartans. I  have one on pre-order from HLJ and will be getting another when they are released. 

So I just got two emails saying my SOC Voltron and Metal Build Gundam Blue Frame just came in. 

So much for being productive at work. 

Did their entire stock go to pre-orders?

Wing series should be the most popular Gundam series in US?

Do you like the Astray Blue Frame?

Did anyone else notice the Ace Combat music and sound affects in the first half of the video? lol.

It is a shame they didn't have any English translations, on the new Gundam boxes and instructions they are adding English descriptions.

Happy Macross Holidays.

That is awesome! I wonder how long it would take my wife to notice?

I really hope I don't fall down the rabbit hole of "I will get Hayate's and Messer's VFs that will be good. But Mirage's color scheme was cool too, and Arad's. So I might as well get Chuck's to round them out."

I ordered Alpha Pack from Toy Dojo Friday during their Black Friday Sale and I just got it. That was a fast delivery.

OH that is awesome! Thanks Yeti!

I am going to have to start checking Barnes and Noble's website more. I have seen a few people get really good deals on hard to find figures. I think it would be cool if they keep getting the high-end collectibles and have on a regular basis at their physical stores.

And the Re:Edits are amazing. I have all of them and hope the line continues. I would love to see a Superior Iron-Man Armor and Iron Man suit #26.

Just from his pics, Re:Edit is slightly larger than the standard 1:18 figures. It still works for me though.

Is the black and gold suit the Re:Edit Black x Gold suit?

Crazy sales going on for BF and i got these 2. They scale very well with figuarts

If you have the Re:Edit Iron Man, How do the Comic Cave Studios scale to Sentinel's?

And were did you pick them up?

Wow, I wonder if HLJ got another shipment from Bandai because the Metal Robot Spirits EX-S Gundam also came back in stock.

Very different color from the previous Max release. That white isn't white at all. VERY grey. I prefer the previous releases color by a lot.

Looking at the picture it seems the color scheme is based off the movie with light gray. To me, if Max had the VF-1J in the movie that would be the color scheme. And I imagine the grey matches the previous VF-1S releases.

Is the stand alone Hikaru VF-1J white or grey? I don't have that one.

I think "who has the best box?" is an inappropriate poll question.

LOL

I wish i could bring myself to just destroy all toy packaging I cannot stand how much room they take up.

But I just cant make myself do it.

Same here, I bet the storage room I use to keep the boxes will run out of space before I run out of actual display space.

Yeah, need more VF-31 pre-orders.

Yup I've got the Legacy Dragonzord from the original run, two actually. Very worth it in my opinion, beautiful piece. My only gripe is about the placement of the die-cast, he's got a ton of die-cast in his feet and it can make the combined Ultra Megazord a bit top heavy, Legacy Titanus came with little knee bracers for the Legacy Megazord to help handle the weight of the Dragon poncho on top of the Legacy Megazord, and it help it does, but like I said the pieces only come with Titanus. Dragonzord is worth it stand alone, or to combine with the other Legacy zords, it's a great figure.

Thanks for the response! It would be a stand alone piece so I am definitely going to pre-order it now. I am kinda hoping Bandai does a Soul of Chogokin Dragonzord. I would love to see one.

HLJ sent me a shipping confirmation, can't wait to have my first Max this week!

I remember a time when I could get Master Replicas Force FX sabers for $99.99. I never bit, like an idiot I always skipped them, even when the more interesting characters sabers were out I stupidly sat by and let them sell out. I paid dearly for these two, but they're pretty awesome, solid builds and they're pretty bright.

Jesse and Mr.White from Breaking Bad are the only two 1/6 figures I have in my collection now, I sold off and gave up on Hot Toys long ago. I like them, really good head sculpts, Jesse completes the duo in their casual clothing, I've got the hazmat suit set on pre-order, those look great. I still love the MMPR Legacy line, the Ninja Megazord is great! I never had one as a kid but I had the stand alone White Falconzord, this was a trend, I'd have one zord but never the set, I could never complete the bigger zord combinations, but now the Legacy line has given me a chance to collect the first three seasons of zords in these shiny, new, show accurate forms.

Have you picked up the Legacy Dragonzord? It is being re-issued and that was the one zord I missed out on. I am wondering if it is worth it.

Am I the only one that is bummed that Max does not come with a strike cannon? I know he did not have it in the show or movie, but I still think it would be cool to see.
