Slave IV

I have a major problem...I actually "collect" the boxes I get all my shipments in. It's another reason why I have no space but I definitely have a box whenever I need to ship something.

Yeah, after noticing the visor color, 202 was a lock for me to get. I wanted armor for Messer's VF-1S and Max is also my favorite so now I have an armor that goes well with both.

Thanks! This is the configuration I was looking forward to most when ordering the armor sets. I'm really happy with it!

Thanks! I'm liking this combo!

Some also come with Gatling gun arm attachments while others don’t. They all come with a chart of parts. If someone can post it, it will help. If not, I might be able to later.

I just suited up with the 102F as well

Nice!

Nice pics @Gundam@EFSF! Based on the comparison, I’d say I’m glad I have both versions but it’s tough to beat the OG! It also makes me wonder what function the crotch parts serve other than for “Thunder Hummers”

Special Ops Punisher has arrived!

MyKombini cancelled my VF-31A order saying they didn't have stock and then offered it for sale at a markup.

You got married? Congrats!

Today's Hot Wheels finds Looking forward to the Ur quattro and apparently, there are a couple more P-Cars I need to find.

Actually yes. They posted on their website that they would be off for holiday until today. By the look of their site, they seem to be back in action with new items listed for the 16th.

Yeah, the places where different color parts go together work really well. The only part I think the multi color will kick in for Valks is small multi color detail areas. The eyes for the Fumina figure are the best example of what they can accomplish with the tech. Zero paint required for the figure (unless I want to try to blend some sprue marks a bit better but I'm not going to.).

Yep! The process is really cool and the figure looks great overall. It's hard to say how much difference the multi color injection makes without seeing the same thing without multi color next to it but the arms are not multi color injected and I think the body and legs do have some more realistic tone and depth to them. Only problem to me is I don't get why they chose to put some of the multi color sprue connections on exposed parts of the skin where you can see the two colors. The sprue marks were a pain and many of them were unremoveable to me. The mold seam lines on the other hand were very easy to blend out. The new process intrigued me, which is the main reason I got this kit and looking at it on my shelf right now, it looks fantastic! I also wanted some practice with kits before I put the little canon parts on my PF SDF-1 and build a bunch of Star Wars kits I've had sitting around for years.

First "Gunpla" I've built in years!

Oh man! I have not been paying too much attention to TVC releases but this is a must have. Thanks for sharing!

Everyone got their Surfers!

That looks a lot better than the padded envelope packaging the other guy here who just got his VF-1S Messer from Amazon.jp got.

Ouch! The seller is a complete ass for shipping that internationally (or any other way) in just a padded envelope. Might as well be a regular envelope since the padding does nothing to prevent it from being crushed.

That's a great looking custom!

I just noticed I forgot to include a link: http://northamerica.llumar.com/window-film-for-homes

So far, I do it on all my cars...I get all windows tinted with quality ceramic films, including 80% on the windshield and it keeps my cars cooler inside even after parked under the sun all day and provides UV protection all around. Definitely noticeable because you can get burned driving in the sun with windows up but not in my cars. Anyways, when picking a film, just make sure you read the specs and make sure it has 99% or more UV protection. Here is a site for one company that I have used and you can see spec sheets for all their films to get an idea of the options.
