  1. Yeah, I look forward to breaking it out and seeing what the kids and I come up with.
  2. I look forward to getting mine from them! You know the rest...cheap shipping that doesn't get shut down during pandemics, customer service in case something goes wrong, no confirming orders and then cancelling them later due to supposed stock issues which we all know are database management issues that happen on other sites...Best of all, less competition when ordering since so many people hate them so much they supposedly will never order there again.
  3. It's from the new Diaclone line which historically is the precursor to Transformers and where a lot of original Transformers toys came from. This line is completely modular where you can transform, combine and reconfigure as you wish to create new forms and transformations. The Warudaros are the "enemy" faction to Diaclones and this one is the new monster grandaddy that cracked me after eyeing the line from the side for years. It's supposed to be one of the most fun toylines to come out in years and I resisted as long as I could but take a look here at just "some" of the options you can come up with through this one figure and you will see why to me, it is the perfect solution to having very few enemy mecha for my Super Robots: https://www.taghobby.com/archives/456687 Edit: Adding some images of a few examples
  4. Super Robot collection, tremble in fear! The opposition has arrived!
  5. Nice! I was wondering about the M911 too... Hmmm...It doesn't really bother me but will see how it goes. I don't want to remove the whole arrow so again, it doesn't bother me enough to worry about it. The last part here...a true addict's logic at work! Gotta love it! You could also get another helmet for Milia and call it a day...or do both!
  6. The helmet was just available at the time but I noticed it was the last one. I'm sure it will come up again or you might want to check with the seller. Nice deal on the Stans, I paid full price but I preordered a long time ago and didn't want to miss out. Also was to lazy to cancel and reorder it for cheaper.
  7. You absolutely should! It is awesome! Wow, nice one! Excellent job! Maybe see if you can get a custom arm for that stand. Perhaps @ChaoticYeti can make an adapter to fit his arms?
  8. Haha, I’ve been immortalized!
  9. Impulse purchase! I could not resist and I don’t regret it at all!
  10. Fewture did make a version of this but this one is from the infamous Evolution Toys. In this case, I'm glad I waited for this version and I'm quite happy with the overall quality. I suppose it is a simple enough design they couldn't mess it up that bad and maybe they are improving as a company as well because this is a bit better than their release of the original God Phoenix. Either way, I don't blame you for holding out especially if you have no attachment to the series. I do highly recommend checking it out though because it is fantastic and very ahead of its time in many ways. Meanwhile, I got my Stan Lee figure!
  11. Cool, thanks! Good to know.
  12. Haha, fantastic work! Just curious for those ordering...did you address the numbering "issue"? It doesn't bother me either way but I was wondering.
  13. Yep! I'm looking forward to both of those! Not so much the Preorder madness part but I really want those two for my collection.
  14. Exactly! As for that, I honestly did not know where that even came from. That poster just seemed to want to lash out at me. Looking back, I could see how they may have thought I was addressing him (or her) because I saw some earlier post but I was just sharing my experience and didn't even remember (s)he was trying to single me out before. Like I said, I only call people out to compliment them, to learn something from them or to try to help if I can. Trying to start personal insult exchanges on a forum is not what I'm here for and can definitely do without that nonsense.

    Put a sticker on it and say it's a rare variant.
  16. Your first mistake was that you need to say it five times! But be careful what you wish for

    Haha, it's definitely a substantial piece. Similar to the 1/55 Chunky Monkey in that it could be used as a bludgeoning weapon if needed . But in this case, I don't think it's a matter of convincing that the Monster is worth getting... @vladykins seems to be implying he already has one and is considering a second! (read the last line of his post from about 4 hrs ago). I say, go for it!

    You are the winner!
  19. Totally get it and why would anyone get mad at anyone over their shopping preferences? We're all fellow collectors here and this community seems to be all about helping each other out when we can and sharing our own experiences to give others a more informed background to make their own decisions. It's all good! Yeah, I'm extremely patient especially when it comes to toy collecting. I have cases and cases of unopened toys I can go through if I ever itch to open something so I'm never in a rush for anything to get here.
  20. When I use Ferry, it used to take 1-2 months. Since the pandemic, I've had two orders and one took around 3 months and the other about 2.5 months. As far as delays on them shipping things out to me, I haven't experienced anything longer than a couple weeks but most items go into "Preparation in progress" within days of release if not the day of.

    Haha, you never know what his wife might be into. The Monster is a fantastic toy! Ne explanation should be needed to justify buying more of them!
  22. Haha, yeah it's all in good fun to me. Glad most people here get that and don't take these things too seriously or take it to personal levels. NY did end up being the easiest preorder for me last night and even with their recent prices being a bit higher, I think it will still be cheapest for me since I used the Ferry option.
