Same here, lol! I think I may have clicked the right spot on accident before to get the desired results but never paid enough attention to know what was actually working or not.
-
Lol, nice!
-
The important thing here is....how did you get the personal specs of each individual on the plane?
-
Lol, I have 4 flavors from a local famous 100 year old ice cream parlor in the freezer at all times and I just bought a $50 ice cream cake for one of my kid's birthday. For me it's more, more, more, more, more! And if it isn't toy toys, it's comic book, vacations, audio gear, cars and car parts....it's endless except my space is finite yet I somehow keep finding ways to fit more into the mix.
-
Haha, even if I were in that situation, my brain isn't wired that way. If there is an option for me to pay less for the same item, that always means more money for more toys to me.

Someone asked a question about Surface shipping, I answered with what I know about it. Hardyharhar? I want your gig where paying double the price for products and triple the price for shipping everything is nbd!
-
Surface has insurance and tracking but I think the insurance is very limited...not sure the amount. I wouldn't pay the extra for Fedex and have always had great experience with Surface.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Good to know. I don't have any Comicave figures yet and mostly again because I'm not really interested in MCU figures. I have eyed them for a long time just to see what they are up to because I always like the idea of higher end figures. -
Yeah, I don’t find the DX to be quite as bad as what you are saying but the overall point I originally was making is Yamato/Arcadia Valks lock together solidly and cleanly in all modes and that is worth more than some tampos to me. It should certainly be a more important point of determining value at least.
-
I'd like to get some more Yamato CF in 1/48 and V2 1/60. Don't see them too often and they usually aren't cheap but I haven't really checked Yahoo auctions. Hope you are right about them not being popular but somehow I don't think that is going to matter come preorder madness time.
-
Yeah, good luck with that too! It's going to be Focker x6 madness!
-
I'm guessing a 1J type will be coming next. Either GBP or M&M. After that, CF 1A.

Ah ok. Interesting choice I never would have made but I'm also all about comic style over MCU. -
Impressive. I don’t think I’ve ever seen pictures of DX VF-1 wings that line up cleanly and solidly without some massaging.
-
People always compare tampo printing as the deciding factor on price point. What about the fact that proper Arcadia Valks line up and tab together almost perfectly. Bandai had over 30 years of VF-1 toy development to study and they still can’t get the wings to line up straight. I like both but to me, Arcadia is still on a higher level of materials fit and finish.

Do you have the Sentinel Re:Edit Hulkbuster? It is still one of my favorite figures all time. It’s a beautiful piece of work. -
Haha, that’s ridiculous! Glad you got your money back. I complained to them when some Amazon exclusive figures came to me in a crushed padded envelope. I don’t seem to have any problem since. They sent a replacement in a nicely packed box and even though I have still received items in bags, they are surprisingly still in good condition. I’ve never received anything just in the plain box the item comes in though. Sorry that’s hilarious that they did that and thought it would be ok.
-
Lol, this? Gotta love the Kleenex boxes they used to use! Thankfully the shrink wrap helped keep the box inside safe. For packing, Mandarake and AmiAmi are the best. Followed by CDJ and NY. HLJ can be iffy because they will sometimes shrink wrap like AJ, sometimes there will be items just bouncing around in the shipper with one air bag with it that is doing next to nothing.
-
No doubt since the KO is basically an Arcadia with some slight differences and quality. Can’t expect KC to compare with that but I was just curious if you had the updated one and if so, what you thought of it.
-
Is your KC the updated one with improvements?
-
Set your TV to enhance yellow and then you can call it screen accurate!
-
Lol, or just call it the yellow variant VF-1J.
-
While I agree that nin-nin is crap, I wish some of these reviews would stick with the facts, which should be enough. When they start making accusations with no proof, it just makes their review less credible...ironically since they are also calling out other reviews. Again, use a credit card through Paypal whenever buying from any foreign retailer to give yourself extra protection. Paypal should side with you in this case but if they don't your credit card company most likely will. I've thankfully have not needed to go that far very often but when I have, I've never seen a case where a credit card company would not side with their cardholder.
-
Possible but somehow I doubt that. Will we ever know exactly how Bandai operates? Probably not.
-
Ah, my bad! I thought it was you. Thanks to @F360 for anyone who scored on that one.
