I have them all including the non-Macross except the first release, which is the 1S Hikaru. Missed it because when the line first came out, I did not think there was any reason why I would want to pay so much for Valks that are not as good as my 1/60, 1/48 or even my original 1/55 Valks in many ways. It wasn’t until the Regult came out and I realized how good that was and how great it would be to have a collection that included enemy and supporting Mecha in one scale that I broke down and started buying them. I immediately ordered Roy’s 1S and then tried to get the GBP, which I was able to find at a decent price (I think with the help of @sh9000). Then it was over and all in for me. It would be nice to get the Hikaru 1S to complete my collection but I never really cared about that version enough to pay the asking prices for it by the time I was in. If I can get one for retail price through a reissue, it will be bought!

Damn that sucks! But to be fair, taking some pictures so they have some verifiable documentation for any action they may take on your behalf doesn’t exactly sound like jumping through hoops to me. Seems pretty reasonable actually.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Yeah, there has never been anything that looked this good even at 3 times the cost that I know of. I just realized the rangefinder has a removable panel so you can actually see through it to “acquire targets”. That is attention to detail and paying fan service to its finest. Thanks! I consider it to be a must have for any Star Wars or Boba Fett fan. Even at only $120, it is one of the top jewels of my collection. Now, I just need the rest of the outfit, lol! -

Yeah, like I said, I’ve waited my whole life for this. I’ve seen many of the other versions that have come out before and none of them could justify their asking price to me. This one, I would have paid more for (like $150). It’s the first BS helmet I paid retail price for because there was no way I was going to miss it but if it goes on sale like all the others, I will definitely buy another. -

Thanks! Nice MLs. Yeah, I might need a complete section for a Boba Fett shrine at this point. Got the Disney blaster, statues and countless figures. Hasbro just teased a Din helmet I think and there is that all white prototype that just opened for preorder. I may end up with all of them. Yep. It is amazing. The previous helmets I have are great too but this one stepped it up another notch. -

Got a ton of stuff that I haven’t had time to check out but this one is the most important. Waited my whole life for something like this! It does not disappoint.
-
If you wanted to, your Visa will likely refund you. But like others have said, just wait and you will get your parts. Is it really that important to get these parts immediately considering what’s going on in the world?
-
Lol, I was thinking the same. It’s not like paint schemes are patented for use on only one model. In fact, there are plenty of schemes used on a variety of planes.

Oh man! The Valks are beautiful but your personal FEXT system blows me away every time. So hard to resist and I see they have the translucent parts in stock again. -
They look really nice. But not enough to get me to give Claibre Wings any more of my money.

Killer Instinct was pretty sweet. I almost bought one of those mini arcade Rolling Thunders but not being an arcade port is a deal breaker. Yeah, I didn’t get into pinball until a lot later. -

Haha, that would be cool but I just don’t see the value in coin op games with the great ports and emulators that exist. Ah, One Piece. I should have known! Great setup, thanks for sharing! -

That is correct but she happened to be standing in front of my favorite arcade game so it was a good excuse. -

Who’s the girl? I like her taste in games! -

Fantastic pics @Saburo & @Lolicon! Great work as usual on the custom job on M&M. -
That seems fair enough although I agree I wouldn’t have bought it knowing that is was broken.
-
Haha, thanks I realized that shortly after I posted. Just got excited because they have the similar looking bodysuit and mind went blank, lol! Thanks for the offer @sh9000, I may take you up on that but not a huge priority on my list. I’m actually pretty happy with just M&M and hope KC makes more figures because thiers are ideal to me.
-
Nice! Thanks for those ML, AFC and HW toys too!
-
What? CM made a Sivil figure?! Is that a custom? If not, I need one!
-
Nice! My kids have been all over my NewAge figures! They love them! Yeah, our family loves Nightmare Before Christmas too and I do consider myself a Burton fan although some of his choices bug me.
-
Haha, and good advice it is! BTW, the 31J did not come with extra head lasers. The only one I remember that did was the 31F (because I had to use it)
-
Your screen name is making more sense! BTW, are you worried about some of your figures yellowing if they are by that window too long?
-
I don’t buy from Jungle much but what I have got from them was good so I guess I was lucky. Anyways, don’t like their fees.
-
I don’t care about resale but it drives me crazy to have incomplete items. Incomplete means missing boxes, instructions, stickers, accessories, etc.

Madarake has extremely high standards. The Japanese collector market is thankfully very strict on box and item conditions.
