I have the Yamato one as well as @HardlyNever mentioned. Certain angles with the valk on the arm stand does lean towards the heavy side and it topples over even though the base has weight to it. I believe that the two additional arms (as @F360 mentioned) will add more stability.

Isn't easier to take apart a valk inside a photo tent if you have one (that is)? Plus another tip.. Never a carpet floor either as you're going to be looking for days if a part goes flying and it's buried within the carpet weaves.

And gone as of 2 am PST.

Has anyone seen this posted? https://news.toyark.com/2019/02/12/star-trek-the-original-series-montgomery-scott-1-6-scale-figure-available-now-via-qmx-332251 -
If you cancel Chuck and get the Karios now, there's no guarantee that you can get Chuck's 31e later at a cheaper price. Most likely that Chuck's will increase later on due to uniqueness of a foldable randome and hidden in valk mode while the other RVF valks have it exposed. It's a gamble that we all take.. Get it now while you can afford it, or get reemed and pay at a crazy price later on. If the price drops and you have the valk at hand, concider yourself thankful and not scrambling at the at last minute when you missed the opportunity.

Anyone wants a Petite Macross Heroine set? @tekeringand myself have a set already. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1106131233&ref=list&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en

Planning to get Captain Harlock's ship in the near future (Battleship Arcadia) as well? -
Nope.. My request with Kawamori's signature in "Gold" on one of the Leg Amours and encased in a plastic cover for years for future generations to look back and see the advancement of how design and technology has improved as the years go by. It could happen right?
-
That was Yamato. I'm waiting for the PE VF-1J with the GBP, Arcadia...
-
Anyone still trying to get the DX VF-1J? Manda has it in stock as of now *.. * Note the price of 30k yen. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1105030835&ref=list&dispCount=240&keyword=%E3%83%9E%E3%82%AF%E3%83%AD%E3%82%B9&lang=en

Hmm.. No word on the Arcadia valk stand as its been shown with the VE-1. Is it possible that the stand will be released roughly half a year later when the VE-1 is out for distribution?
-
@Lolicon - From your post of the Flashback 2010 Minmay, I'm taking its the Plamax version in which you have to assemble it together. Somehow this version of Minmay looks better in my eyes (others will have their preferences).
-
Looks impressive on Arcadia's retake on the 51. Can anyone digi-bash it into Nora's version (it doesn't have to be spot on colourwise if possible?) Pricewise for 36.8k yen is still a chunk of change for many of us.
-
@PsYcHoDyNaMiX I might have missed out on some of the numbers out as I was getting ready to crash for the day. So that means HLJ had a limit of how many 31e that they could offer, not put a cap after an allotted number of pre-orders and just let it roll after reaching the limit?
-
This is quite interesting.. From all the replies of HLJ of the cancelled 31e from some members here, I did some "guestimating". If you had pre-ordered Chuck right when the orders where opened if the servers didn't crap out and other factors, both @Shukenzero and @Mommar ordered where safe (low digits: 13900099 and 13900100) and the higher the order number beyond @Chronocidal #1390149 (according to his post) got the chopping block. So saying between #13900100 and maybe up to maybe #1390140 (I'm guessing here if you did get Chuck's 31e along with other stuff as well?) you where considered in the "safe zone" and that means you'll get your orders as requested. The highest number order was @spacemanoeuvres #1390168 in which got the axe as well.

Posted on Toyark for those Ms. Danvers fans. https://news.toyark.com/2019/02/08/captain-marvel-1-6-scale-figure-by-hot-toys-331657 -
I back tracked to Shizuka's list of the links. It's still listed as 1 per customer and I think that I must be getting it mixed up with something else.. That downvote arrow should be meant for me not @no3Ljm! I'll take the blame..
-
I think the limit was up to 20 copies (per one account) from what I've seen on HLJ's PO madness. So there is a possibility that someone did snap up extra copies upon the orders opening and flipping it later on. Honestly saying, for those members that have their PO of Chuck's 31e cancelled, you can try proxies as well (FromJapan, Buyee, etc..) as you might have a better chance of getting it there. Edit: Also at your discretion as well. @Sandman - I'm sure that your Amazon.jp provider for your Chuck's 31e wouldn't charge you yet until they get it and then ask you for the S&H later.
-
Wait a minute here.. Didn't you also got burnt with the 31a as well (from what I recall)? If my memory serves me correctly, didn't @Slave IV get burnt from mycombini (or is it another provider) on the 31a as well? I'm sure that others got "fried to a crisp" on the 31a pre-orders as well. If Arad's 31a does get made (hopefully from the second Delta movie), will it be easier to acquire this particular release or not?
-
The clips from the Movie F (for the Draken and then you put Keith's Drakens on it) do pop off easily when you fiddle with it as I did use it for a photoshoot with Mirage/Lil'Draken set up. 14k yen for the Movie F is definitely worth the purchase if anyone passed over Messer's 31f originally.

Check out @Xigfrid's post back in October 4th, 2018 on page 101 (head laser replacement instructions).

That's going to make us double dip for both copies of Ivanoff's 51 (regular and PE) for those that want it which we know well. Get the regular and then the PE which makes us sell off the regular version afterwards? Can't wait to see the pics of the semi-finished 51 and the PE VE-1 during WonderFest. I'm more interested in the PE VE-1 than the 51 honestly speaking.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
borgified replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
This thread is going to be covered with Macross goodness very shortly.. HMR VF-4G, HMR VF-1D, Arcadia's PE VE-1 and Chuck's 31e (that's not counting the VF-1J tuxedo valk, the Lil'Drakens for the Movie 31f and the missile pack for the DX VF-1J). This is one heck of a bang for 2019. Oh.. Before I forget about this one, for those who are celebrating the Asian New Year (Lunar Calendar) very soon: Kung Hei Fai Choi. In Mandarin: Xie Qui Li (did I get this right as Mando is not my mother tongue). -
I believe that that they still haven't met the 600 pre-orders requirement to make the 1/60 Thunder Hummer Armoured Set. @Saburo: Any further details that you might want to add since your working with Fext Hobby to get exposure on this project?
-
That's why it pays off to get it during the pre-orders madness and avoid the markup fees later on. Due to respect, a fair amount of us adhere to date/times of the pre-orders and others will forget every now and then. It all happens to each and everyone else.
