  1. Nice one. Do you plan any certain paint scheme?

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Unfortunate only as I can't put the Supers on the VF-31C right away. Visiting my mom means getting good lunch . Funny thing, my super parts came from NY, too. I also got that email concerning the 28th but right afterwards the mail with "preparation in progress" came in. The pre-order handling at NY seems to be a mystery
  3. Oh, I think everyone HERE would stay with 'triumphant' . Congrats to these nice pieces. Makes me remember I still have to get me a VF-25S, too! The last VF-25 missing in my collection.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Same for me. The Magenta makes Mirage's VF-31C an eye catcher and the VF-31J looks much more like a toy to me. For now I would say I'm through with the VF31. Maybe I change my mind when Chuck's VF-31E will get reality. Besides: My VF-31C Super Parts have been delivered. Unfortunately at my mother's house so I have to collect them the next days. But luckily this time the shipment went through customs without paying extra taxes and fees . Nearly for all items from outside the EU I had to pay tax and go and collect 'em at my local customs office this year - Really annoying!
  5. Yes, these pics and being around in this forum don't help at all. Ordered the MB Arbalest just 2 minutes ago. Can't wait for it to arrive. And remembering me constantly: Forget about your empty wallet, forget about your empty wallet...

    Bandai DX VF-31

    +1 My Supers are now in transit. Originally planned to leave the VF-31C in Fighter Mode for ever. But damn, by looking at those pics I feel the urge to display the 31C in Battroid Mode once the Super Parts have arrived. So Messer has to go back to Fighter
  7. As long there are so many women out there addicted to clothing and willing to pay those higher prices there will never be a change (looking at wife's wardrobe, too)

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Yeah, and now take some pebble stones and rub it all around for a complete weathering. Then the rubbing won't catch your eye anymore . Luckily my Messer has no rubbing marks yet. Transformed it only once to Battroid mode and keep it there.
  9. Thanks for the suggestion but I think I gonna take the hard way and watch the entire show. After five episodes I'm still in
  10. Feel the same about Seed Destiny. Have to watch the last two movies but something keeps me on hold. I'll give it try right away and skip the rest of Seed. Want to see the different modes of the 00 QAN[T] in motion

    Bandai DX VF-31

    I got both the date change and the preparation email just shortly one after the other. Received no shipping info yet, but the order status in my NY account shows "in transit"
  12. Thanks. I hope the 00 story will be better than Seed. Sometimes it was hard to keep on following the story or even to keep the interest in it. Never happened to me while watching Macross, whereas Macross 7 had a few long breathing sections, too. Frontier is still my favorite as it all began for me with the RVF-25 DX Valk
  13. That was a heartbeat decision in the end. Over the last weeks I puzzled about getting an Gundam Exia Perfect Grade cause I liked the design. Then the Preorder for the Aile Strike drew my focus to the Metal Builds. Was impressed by the high level of details and then the 00 QAN[T] as final hero unit of 00 catched my eye. Fell in love with its asymmetric design in combination with the GN Shield. And now as the unit is flying on my shelf I have to say completely right decision. Looks awesome, especially in the dark, when the green glowing LED of the GNT-Drive is on. Now I can't wait to start watching Gundam 00.
  14. Even in Saburo's pics it seems to be slightly more gappy on the left side. Had such an issue with a VF-25. By transforming it I noticed that a hinge was not in the right position for about a millimeter and transforming back then solved it. Maybe that's the same issue with your SDF.
  15. Haven't unboxed yet, keep the tension until tomorrow . But expectation is high! If it is fulfilled, waiting for the reviews for the Aile when it comes out and then, if prices are still reasonable...
  16. I hope Gundams will stay "side collecting only" alongside to Macross toys. The Aile Strike pre-order phase drew my attention towards the Metal Builds. But I decided to skip this pre-order as in the end the Qan(t)s design was more appealing to me
  17. Right now? Ever ever. Never planned to get a Gundam and stick to Valkyries only, but now I couldn't resist any more. I fear what comes. Same happened with the DX Valks: Planned only to get one and by now I don't have as much display space as I wish for.

    Hi-Metal R

    Me too, but I use the "lack of space" argument to calm down that little devil sitting on my shoulder whispering "bye those HMR, buy those HMRs right now..." all the time If I start with HMR I think I'm going with the Destroids so I hope Bandai will release the missing ones soon
