    Stick the armour on either Mirage/Messer/Hayate if you don't care about colour correctness.

    Going to wait for Roy/Milia.. Keeping my Yammie 1/48 Low Vis 1a, however there is the Yammie 1/48 Max 1a (mk.1 based on jenius' write up) available on Manda if one can tolerate the flaws that are present.

    I have a feeling that someone here will be taking comparison pics of the HMR VF-4 and the 1/60 Yamacadia VF-4. Note: At least the HMR will not have parts falling off upon doing the transformation sequence.

    That I can answer. According to his write up on the other Macross thread: "Thanks! I picked it up at www.planetxtoys.com I was surprised to find it but the owner was super cool. He was the second owner and supposedly got it from Kawamori’s personal collection in the 80’s? No documentation, but based on condition, I have no reason to doubt him. He was selling it for $1200, but like I said was super cool and sold it to me for $1000. It’s rich for my blood as I was looking for something closer to $400-$500, but couldn’t pass the grail up. I’ve seen sealed G1 Jetfires go anywhere from $3k to $5k." As per the quote from the band No Doubt: " Are you happy now?"

    Even though the boxed is beaten up to snot, couldn't pass over a good deal on a used VF-22s Gamiln (20k yen) from Manda.

    borgified replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Anyone still looking for a Karios? One available on Manda for 55k. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1105094821&ref=list&dispCount=240&keyword=マクロス&lang=en

    That was on my list of Chunky Monkeys to get... When I finally saw the listing price for that, that became a "Holy Grail" right after that. @Shizuka the Cat - Did you look for this this version as well? I bet it was way out of your price range.

    This is the first thing that pops into my mind when you said this.. I admit that some guys don't like musicals.. To each their own I say. I'm actually staring to like the VF-4 after seeing pics of it more being posted and seeing the transformation done by Bandai before the actual release date.

    @Shizuka the Cat - That's what happens when my mind is pre-occupied of how to do a movie response paper for my Continuing Ed class taught by a Lawyer...

    @Saburo - Got enough space for Chuck's 31e when released (and the Silpheed Armour for Arad)? It's going to be a very tight squeeze.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    borgified replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    A special request if I may (I'm asking this ahead of time). If anyone gets Chuck's 31e (out on June/July) and then the Silpheed Armour (out on August/September), is there a possibility to have a snap of it (mis-matched tampos, colours and all)?

    I have a pre-order en-route from Mondo soon (non-deluxe if your wondering). I post it up when I have it in my hands.

    @JetJockey - Here's the rundown of both IXO and Maisto 1:18 die cast cars in a nutshell. IXO Models: Very high end, detailed and very regarded corporation of making replicas of Autos/Trucks/Motorcycles/Airplanes, etc.. Makes Auto Art stuff look like garbage from what I have been reading (maybe literally speaking). https://www.ixomodels.com/index.php?route=information/information&information_id=4 Go into the Info tab and click on: About Us and you'll see what I mean. There are reviews on YouTube compairing IXO Models products to other brands of similar items Maisto: Simple, basic, low cost and no frills for collectors that don't want to spend all that $$ for a simple replica of a car or anything for that matter. http://www.maisto.com/ I haven't collected any IXO Models 1:18 stuff yet, however that may change..

    A few review's on Mondo's 1/6th He-man. Some reviews may be old so my apologies.
  22. borgified
    I'm sure that there will be other colours available down the road David. Made a pre-order for one already and will be using this and the Yammie version in my display. I might even do a comparison as well.

    @JetJockey: As a former 1:18 scaled car collector and previous Automotive Apprentice Mechanic, I don't like Jada Toys interpretation due to fact they love to "Pimp up it up" and slam all the "Bling Bling" to make it more attractive. Its all show and no go.. Where is the practically of the car? Total waste of money in my books although it gets some heads turning in that direction. I prefer stuff from a mixture of Auto Art, IXO, Kyosho and Maisto. As for Transformers Animated Japanese shows (pre-Beast wars) area @Shizuka the Cat, there was Super God Life, Headmasters/Masterforce and Victory. I do watch Tokusatu stuff as well like Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, Gojira, Garo, Mazinkaiser, Escaflowne just to toss in a few examples. Skyfire/Jetfire was a borrowed idea from the original 1/55 Chunky Monkey. @Kuma Style: I have a feeling that either you or myself will show our new valk purchase soon.

    I'm actually wondering why Arcadia decided to issue their version of the VE-1 in PF first. Marketing enticement perhaps? The Elintseeker was shown for 2 seconds (?) in DYRL and slightly different from any of the VF-1 valks due to the sensors that where plastered all over it and the oddball looking head.
  25. borgified
    Thanks for the update @no3Ljm. I'm going to pick up both movies at some point in time and watch them both.
