Thank so much for the reply , with the Yamato/Arcadia reference you just gave almost an exact idea of the heft of the figure , once again congrats for your purchase. -
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
Alex GS replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
So is finally released !, it looks very nice congrats!, btw if you got a chance, how is the weight of the figure?, does it have any diecast in it ?, any comparable figure that has similar weight ? for example a Metal Build , or DX Macross ?, or Arcadia VF ones like VF 1S Hikaru?, it would awesome to know, for me these factors are decisive to buy figures , if they are hefty is probably a buy from me -

This arrive today , no clue that this old Yamato version of the YF 21 was so tall really got me by surprise, even that this version is the first one from Yamato I think is a very nice looking YF 21, great heft and detail! and finally my First Bandai Metal Robot, just took it a few moments ago out of the box and is so beautiful, the box itself is so damn beautiful , I was expecting to get excited by this figures and wasn't disappoint one bit

oh man that canopy colors look so bad, the whole color design in battroid mode looks bad in my opinion, for me at least not sure others but only fighter mode is kinda bearable
-
Probably is a Gamestop employee, you know those who like to say is new but the box is totally open , I'm kidding I'm kidding

I truly believe hundreds and hundreds of people love the Macross Valkyries and not only the Kairos, it just happens that the popularity depends alot of the design of the Valkyrie and obviously the price, it seems Y20,000 is the sweet spot for Bandai.

I'm not sure if for Arcadia Macross Zero figures is that easy to get a preorder or the YF 19 Arcadia one, it would be nice to know how severe was the preorder madness if there was a madness in the first place for those Valkyries , my guts are telling me there is going to be a Arcadia YF 21 very soon and I think a preorder for this kind of figure it definitely not going to be easy, well unless is not a Premium with its ridiculous prices. -

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Alex GS replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Thank for the update about that site, yep I just realize that after I put the preorder in , I hope I'm able to get it is pretty much sold out everywhere else or the other option is to pay double its original price. Update1: they remove the figure from their site the link is no longer working but still the order appears in my list, . Lets see what happens. Update2: Just got an email after sending them a message, and just like you mention they ordered more qty, it seems I will be getting it " Hello, thank you for placing an order with us. We ordered an additional qty of this item to fulfill orders that are placed after the closing date, so your order is covered. Once the item is released and ready to ship, we will have a payment request sent to you. If you have any more questions please feel free to contact us. " -
Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Alex GS replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
So I just ordered a Metal Robot Strike Freedom from this site, I was looking around for this Metal Damashi and find this site, they don't ask you pay right away until they got the figure and it looks like is US based, it also grab my attention the price they were asking for the figure, lets see what happens. https://www.eknightmedia.com/gundam-seed-destiny-strike-freedom-gundam-metal-robot-spirits-action-figure-by-bandai-tamashii-nations.html Still somebody has any info about buying from this site?, from the info I got looking around it seems they are legit. I hope I'm not being off topic here -

Well for the Mazinger that I got definitely not wort the price even at a discount with a final prince of Y7000, still Evolution Toys have lots of other series of figures but at the same time their record about releasing figures without any issues is not that good, I was actually trying to get too a Legioss but then I remembered the releases of the VF-2SS Valkyries and all the issues those valks have so I didn't preorder it, since Mazinger Evolution Toy is from another series beside Macross and it doesn't have the complex transformation of a Marcross figure I thought it would be way better quality but nope I was wrong, it looks like they continue with their QA issues to other series as well. So in short answer is not worth the price ET are asking for their figures, there are way better quality figures out there and way cheaper in price in my opinion. -
For some reason I thought the box was going to be all red and later on Max all blue, that would it be nice in my opinion

Here is a quick picture I took a few moments ago: After checking the quality the price that is at AmiAmi right now it barely enters kinda fair price, more than that I think is too much, I think I know why this figure is heavily discounted , the main figure has a bit of heft to it mostly comes from the ball shape magnets all allocated in the joints, everything else feels kinda cheap plastic , also the right leg from the knee down the joint is very loose. If by any case you have the Bandai Super Robot Chogoking Mazinkaiser Color version or other versions , the Mazinkaiser is miles way better in quality or any other Bandai Super Robor Chogokin than this one. The Scrander with the wings and the sword the first time I grab it it felt like I was going to break it, very very light feel plastic, still putting aside all the cons, the colors and details of this version of Mazinger in all parts are spot on is a really nice looking figure, in the end I'm happy with my purchase along side all the other figures but definitely I was expecting more from this one since its original price is double than that, but now I feel I didn't get any discount on it .

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Alex GS replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Is this a Tamashi Exclusive ?, I hope not still I don't have any original Metal Build in my collection, I have KO Metal Gear Seven Sword like it alot but I do really want an Original one , I hope is not exclusive it looks freaking awesome! In other things I took me a while to found a thread about Metal Builds, glad I found this one. -
Holy damn!, this might be the first armor I will buy for a Valkyrie It looks insane!! Somebody knows what its written ?

yep I received my Saint Seiya figure, but Milia Premium costs a couple of hundred dlls more Thanks @no3Ljm @Slave IV Anxiety that's the feeling right now. Thank you guys for the recommendations, I was totally lost in what to do , I think I might have an idea now, also I so was so clueless about the deposit time frame that is indeed this Tuesday not Thursday(thanks @Mommar for the heads up), it will get interesting since pay day is Thursday !, now where is that destroy wallet gif ?
-
Man I'm so nervous if I want to go ahead and pay that steep price for Milia's Premium figure, the thing is is not about the quality of the figure is about shipping my figure and I'm talking about Nippon Yassan here, last year I order a Saint Seiya Minos figure from them , it took them 2 weeks for them to send it out but not until I put a ticket on them, I used EMS for shipping so I can have it way faster but that wasn't the case, in the end I received my Saint Seiya figure completely new as advertised and great condition but damn!! the packaging that was in it was horrible! it was just a bunch of cardboard put together with tape. So knowing the above and some stories I found about missing packages from NY being told here in the forums, I'm really worried if I want to go ahead and pay, not sure what to do here, if you can do some recommendations about it what to do I'm all ears since you definitely have more experience with NY than me , NY is already asking for my deposit and I have until thursday .... what to do ?... what to do..
-
Thanks NoEL much appreciated, Yes I definitely aiming to get a normal DX VF 31J ,sure ping me a message when you have opportunity to get some images, and finally yep I'm US based address
