Slave IV

Sweet! I was finally able to order Jubilee yesterday...still need to order Beast and Prof X and I'll wait on the rest.

Thank you! No problem! As for the other images, I can’t tell what they are even supposed to be. Perhaps ceiling covers?

Like I said, it was a bitch! But basically, it took patience and finagling with a soft ruler and some other “tools” I made. I think a regular pencil with an eraser would work well but I didn’t have one so I used a thick rubber band wrapped over an Allen wrench to push the cutout into place. I started with the small part on the left side and pushed it all the way in. There is space behind the molded buildings that you can tuck the cutout behind. Hardest part is at the right side where you have to fold the paper and tuck it behind the buildings in the corner. Tucking in that side usually pulled the left side towards the right so that’s when I used the rubber band tool to push it back into place. Once you get it in the right place, it fits perfectly. Excellent design by @wm cheng Thank you so much! I still don’t know what the other images are for though...The ones between the ruler to print the correct size. Did you figure out where those go?

No better way to introduce yourself! Great photo and welcome!

OK, much better now

Actually, I realized my print didn't come out as clean as yours so redoing it again...standby...

Sweet! Only cost me Thanks @spacemanspiff! It was a bitch to get the print in there but well worth it!

Yeah, that was one of my biggest regrets on missing too. Worst part is I saw it at a shop for the low price of $110. It sat there for months and I just wasn't ready to spend that kind of "big money" (lol) on it. Finally, I came to my senses and decided to go get it and of course, it was gone. Price has only gone up since and I'm really happy to get this latest reissue.

Awesome Mechagodzilla collection! I have the same set! It’s a dream come true for me to have all of them plus the bonus poster version.

Nice! I have those but I was just looking at the Gamestop exclusive 2 pack that also comes with a Zero figure...I kinda want but too expensive right now.

That's it? I see that I probably need to contact @wm cheng.

That city detail is sweet! How do I get one like it and how much?

Yeah...I stopped buying multiples for most MLs. Too many of them and again, they almost always go on clearance. I'm worried about ever finding Silver Sable, Beast and Jubilee though so I might bite the bullet on getting cases to get them

Yeah, I’ve been avoiding SHF MCU but that WM design really got me. Still passed but kinda want it.

I didn't order it. I'm experimenting with not buying waves since almost every ML eventually goes on clearance. But...I'm close to cracking and buying the Caliban and Kingpin waves.

That War Machine was so tempting to me. Look forward to seeing pics and reading impressions about it.

Oh wow, I didn’t realize you were that new to Macross. Thought you’ve been in the game for a while. Thanks for always helping out with nice finds!

Arcadia has pretty much all but said they are basically doing this as a hobby for the love of it. Can’t ask for more than that. The prices reflect the market for them to be able to do this. I’m thankful they are still around and hope they keep it up. I do agree and hope they just make everything PF though.

1/48 Milia 1J for 10,000? When?

They won’t wait until next year. It will be announced right after all the non PFs ship.

I would say Anime Export is the best when it comes to shipping across multiple orders. HLJ has that 60 day limit that AE doesn't.

Wait, so that price is for a regular, non-PF version? Man...

Good job!

But what if sells out and is only available for twice the price after you get Milia? Then your desire will grow exponentially and you’ll be forced to pay more. Do. It. Now.

It's only right to have the matching pair. Just get it over with, lol!
