    Nice @sqidd! You are now officially part of the real Macross Club!
  2. Slave IV
    I normally don’t buy statue figures but had to make an exception. Rain is coming soon too.

    In case anyone doesn't have one already, just a reminder to DO IT!

    Realistically, they would stay attached to the arm same way they were in fighter mode. Then they just need to grab it to use.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Slave IV replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Yeah, the only thing I’m using it for right now is to hold a hollow Firebird shell for my Gatchaman God Phoenix

    Yeah, I get that part but I was talking about jet mode. This is the first time I’ve heard they are 1/72 but if that’s the case, no way a Legends class is 1/60. Either way, NBD as I don’t care about scaling TFs with Macross but just an added bonus if it did.

    Interesting, it was there when I posted.

    Might as well do it while you can https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/B086QVMXDP/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Edit: Sorry, link did work but now the item is unlisted.

    In thought MP was 1/60. These are probably closer to 1/100, right? I’ll probably grab one off Taobao to check it out because it does look good and I’ve been waiting over 35 years to get some decent Seekers.
  10. Slave IV
    Haha, I get that! Ok, I just checked it out and it does look better than any MP seeker I've sen but the asking price is outrageous for a Legends size figure. I take it you think it's worth it?
  11. Slave IV
    Who makes those seekers? I’ll check them out and maybe grab one if they look better than the “MP” options I’ve seen.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Slave IV replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    They look nice together! But yeah, I’m not too impressed with the stands. I got a few and right now just using one for a much smaller, lighter, unrelated to Macross display. Plus, it’s real boring to have a bunch of figures displayed the exact same way, the exact same angle right next to each other. I’ve seen some creative use of them and glad I have a few to mess with but not gonna buy anymore.

    Excellent! @xoxokin
  14. Slave IV
    Good point! I love the HMR boxes as they are anyways so I'm all good. Releasing them in the OG box style would just be forcing my hand to buy more stuff.
  15. Slave IV
    Yes. The V2 1/60 is a more solid and refined toy but along with that precision comes some tighter tolerances and more difficult transformation.
  16. Slave IV
    The Yamato 1/48 is pretty fiddly but I agree it is such a great toy to play with anytime. Transformation is so quick, simple and good.
  17. Slave IV
    Why can't Bandai do this with HMR instead?
  18. Slave IV
    They’ll just ban me when they find out. But I won’t need them anymore at that point.
  19. Slave IV
    I'll handle quality control with all the prototypes, first and random factory runs sent to me. I'll also handle PR when people start complaining about delays and shipments.
  20. Slave IV
    Nice pic!
  21. Slave IV
    @sqidd, new CEO of Arcadia? Hmmmm
  22. Slave IV
    AE has always had an “indefinite private warehouse”. I’ve had items sit with them for over a year.
  23. Slave IV
    Yamato: Any of the Low-Vis/Stealth 1/48 VF-1s. Arcadia: VF-0S. PF SDF-1 for non-Valk entry. Bandai: DX VF-1...I'll go with the Max 1A since it's Max. These are also my favorites because I like the best!
  24. Slave IV
    Yeah, I took a hiatus for a while so I missed a lot and I have a policy of not going back on anything I missed if I couldn't find or order it myself at retail unless I find deals that I can't pass up (thanks Mandarake!). Yeah, there is no way I could display everything I had unless I open a museum (something that has been discussed and would love to do someday). I did add another policy of not buying anything I don't plan to open and display but I haven't been able to keep up with that rule and it doesn't apply to duplicates...which puts me deeper into my situation of having more stuff than I can deal with. Those displays by @tekering and others are incredible though. I think @Kicker773 might just have the title of top dog from what I've seen as far as pure quantity.
  25. Slave IV
    Yeah, before the DX VF-1 came out, I was always saying the Arcadia 0S was the best Valk toy ever made. I still think it's a tossup in some areas but objectively, must say the DX has a slight edge. With PF treatment, the 0D will have a significant edge in the finish department but either way, more awesome toys for me is a great thing and I don't need to worry about which one is better because I will have them all!
