Haha, I figure screws would be required for any wall mount. Are there holes in the base for it or you just drilled through? I know @ChaoticYeti may offer a solution too but good to know what the options are.
-
The mount it comes with is wall compatible?

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
Slave IV replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Thanks! That's pretty much the info I wanted. I love TFW but I don't even check the regular or 3P threads there anymore. Too much nonsense, not enough new stuff that interests me. -

Great collection! I don't feel like reading through the FT and DX9 threads at TFW regarding the two Omega Supremes but can you give me the basics on the differences and why you went with DX9? Or if you have both, comparisons? -
Do they no longer teach about opportunity cost in business school?

Haha yeah, it is insane! While I consider Macross my main focus right now, Star Wars has been a consistently amassing collection for me since the late 70's. I'm pretty sure I have more Star Wars than anything. Marvel and other superhero things are big with me too but they haven't been getting really great toys until fairly recently considering how long they've been around. Which leads to my comic collection that actually could put the rest of my collection combined to shame. -

Got my Sail Barge book that comes before the actual toy next year: Finally got a decent Ultron that looks formidable with other Marvel villains...been wanting this for years and finally found it for $2.50 And I got my OG Mechagodzilla to add to the crew
-
YF-19 wars huh? Interesting.
-
Haha yeah. I bet it depends on where you hold it for balance too. Anyways, they make, I'll buy.
-
Once again, ME overthinking and overanalyzing. You guys see the support arm underneath the Valk right?
-
Oh nice!

"a copy"? That's probably his 10th one at least? -
Yeah, all those stands would be instabuy. They need to make sure storage compartments are integrated too.

There are basic, non Macross branded ones that are clear, black and other colors. The ones posted above are Tamashii Stage Act 5, which are designed for small to medium mecha toys. There are other configurations like the Trident and Combination that are designed to hold several figures together. You can get them at most the same Japanese shops you buy the toys from but they come out at certain times and usually sell out but get reissued from time to time and are pretty easy to find. Amazon usually has them, eBay and most toy specialty shops will have them. They are usually cheapest when you preorder during reissue times, especially for clear stands since they are the most popular for good reason. You can often find the other colors on clearance pretty much anytime.

Limiting supply and having your products sell out is better than making too much and not selling out. Anyways, there are tons of factors including all the thousands of other items Bandai makes that come into play. I think we are lucky to even be able to buy what we do considering it's technically not even legal for anyone to sell Macross products outside of Japan. Maybe once that changes and the market for Macross widens, companies can allocate more resources to make them more widely available.

Lol!

Haha, yeah. Not sure I'd even spend a coupon on it, lol. But I have been eying it and the 3.75" Enchantress set on clearance everywhere. -
I think it's safe to assume the parts will be TWE again if they come so at least you won't have to worry about getting the order in during a preorder madness rush.
-
I love it!
-
Well, I would and did get the Messer Super Parts and I think Bandai will make 31A specific parts and I will get those too. What you should do depends but if you want the best deal, probably safe to wait and see what new items come and get the preorder deal before paying a premium for already released ones.
-
Congrats to all who got what they wanted! I feel like this needs to be on every page or at least every few
-
I thought Mirage's 31C was pretty popular on preorder night. Thinking the super parts will be too especially with the inclusion of the reaction missiles.
-
I think it's reasonable to think Bandai will find any and all ways to rape our wallets with new Macross figures. I welcome and thank them for it.

Most places limited to 1 right?
