    You are in for a serious treat if you have not yet experienced Metal Build or Metal Composite figures (or even if you have). This is only the third one I have in my collection and I’m not a big enough Gundam fan to get anything but some favorite/classic/key figures like this one. The MB/MC is what most consider the finest line of non Super or Transforming Robots ever made. The engineering and overall quality are are top notch. Haha yeah, so true! And Thanks!

    Didn't have time to do anything but take the figure out and take a couple shots but what a magnificent piece!

    They are both a bit under 10"

    LOL! I'm definitely a beliver of the shrinkwrap to a board method though. After seeing so many packages shipped that way come with the contents safe inside, seems to be working well. HLJ also does this but their boxes are usually also more sturdy.

    Thanks to everyone sharing all the pics! Looks excellent! I look forward to getting mine.

    Nice MP-44 @sh9000! Mine showed up from AJ with that feared paper thin box. Not a good look when it had to be “repacked” But it seems like the box inside escaped damage again. Whew!

    Cool pic! Looks like the Valk is extending out of the box.

    Fantastic! Ditto on the awesome paintjob on the stand too. LEK is THE MAN!

    I almost got the SHF for that reason. Glad I held off!

    Nice!

    Yeah, I just noticed that feature but never tried it either. Seems like it will work and I will be attempting it soon.

    There you go, profit! Hmmmm

    What kind of business are you in? (feel free to PM if you don't mind my asking and if this is getting too OT).

    Ah, a Top Gear/Grand Tour fan? Nice to hear that. I'm a huge gearhead and you should check out @spanners Model car collection.

    It's been working well for me but if your post office is not reliable then I guess it isn't a good option. I ordered but I sent in an inquiry regarding a discount code. Will let you know how it goes. Speaking of dicount codes, yeah, they use a system described here. They seem to start you off low but my last few codes have been for 5% off, which is going to be pretty significant, especially if I order multiples.

    The one I always use is called Ferry. Amazon JP delivery is scary but I guess the speed helps reduce the chances of damage.

    LOL! I'll take an Indy reference anytime!

    Incorrect, ferry does have tracking although I rarely bother checking. I just enjoy surprises in front of my house whenever they come. FWIW, I paid $333 for mine shipped from NY using a discount code (I think it was 3% off). As mentioned, Amazon ships in nearly paper thin boxes, I've had boxes delivered that were completely torn open. The good thing is they also skrink wrap to a board so luckily, I have not recieved anything damaged but it is a bit scary to see a box delivered like this:

    And under $43 for two if you choose ferry. I choose the ferry route everytime for these things!
  20. Slave IV
    All good. I just wanted to see how well equipped you were. You never know!
  21. Slave IV
    You have a tampo machine?
  22. Slave IV
    Yep!

    Finally got this set! Still can't get over how tiny Rodan and Mothra are but they are very nice, especially Mothra's translucent wings. Such a shame there will be no Ghidorah to go with them.
  24. Slave IV
    Well, the original was a dud and it still commanded a pretty penny. Anyways, I'll be happy to get one of these. If I'm lucky, two but I really don't need an extra.

    Good info, I’ll have to check it out sometime. China is in full on capitalistic mode right now so once their population mostly gets the same kind of buying power we have in the US, everyone is screwed one way or another if things stay as they are now. Just look at what this population has done to the world and multiply that times 6-7, lol!
