  1. I only have three valks: Mirage's 31c with Supers, Keith's SV-262 Hs with the Lil Draken set add ons, Movie 31f (came in today) with Supers on the way. I'm sure that someone will do it when they get the Movie Version 31f (or if @Xigfrid is planning to have the clip ons on Shapeways in the near future). Edit: My request for Messer's Supers on the YF-30 is still up or should I get the Chronos and attempt it on my own?
  2. Booom!! Experiment with Mirage's 31c with Movie Version 31f Lil' Draken clips and the SV-262 Hs Lil' Draken pods and the sword. Note: I may have made mistakes along the way as I did this quickly and took out the gun pod out for the valk mode. This is stock everything and nothing was added. The clip on attachment for the Movie Version 31f is underneath the wings and tabs are there for the hard points, plus the clips do pop off if bumped around.
  3. I was literally not expecting this until next week.. While having lunch, my aunt picked it up and told me that a package came in and the box was big. I told her that I wasn't expecting anything yet and low and behold my copy of 31f re-issue arrived from Amazon Japan (shipped in the early hours of Wednesday morning).. Going to use the clip-ons on Mirage's 31c and see how it looks with the Lil'Draken from the SV-262 Hs add on set (if someone beats me to the challenge, then please post the pic up). Edit: Just realized the blue/white/light grey on my bedsheet with the blue/white/black box for the Movie 31f makes a unusual backdrop.

    From what I can understand from SilentCiel's review, Ranka was better sculpted overall and painted better than compared with Sheryl (even though he had high expectations for Sheryl). I believe that Ranka's face sculpt is easier to mold than Sheryl's due to that fact that Sheryl has a narrower nose line and it's harder to get a perfect nose sculpt on the molds. I'll pick up only the EXQ Ranka only and the Blue Spirits Kuji Sheryl.

    Been looking through YouTube in regards to Macross Banpresto figures and no wonder why the EXQ Ranka looks better than Sheryl (they still got to fix that face sculpt of her).. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNaZfzz7hOY Edit: Found another EXQ unboxing of Ranka and Sheryl.
  6. Just got delivered from Amiami. AY Megs (sealed) and S.H. Figuarts White Crow [Box B/Item B] I was looking for a White Crow after missing out on a copy that was available from Manda at roughly 4.5k yen as one is available for 8k yen (not worth it).

    I don't know if this will suffice? @kajnrig: Thanks for the reply back.. Hmm... I have the Movie 31f to arrive next week via Amazon Japan (barring if and when the Canada Post Strike hits YVR as its slowly creeping across Canada as it already hit my secondary home of YYZ as of yesterday) and can't decide if I want the larger or smaller sized Kaname/Freyja to go with it when displayed with my SQ Regular Suit Mirage. Edit: Corrected as of previous post.
  8. Anyone need a refresher?? Edit: Instead of the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld, it should be Macross Nazi who is stopping us from getting our Macross Fix.
  9. Not surprised there as it hard to find one these days and at 25k yen is a bargain.. No wonder that most collectors wish that Arcadia will make the VF-11 valks. Edit: I want one too now that I think about it...
  10. I've seen the movie online a few weeks ago and it's a "Newer Revamp" telling of the series with changed deals and added scenes. Animation is the same, no change present. Others may see differently.
  11. Jungle has one for 58,320 yen and it's sealed (not 30th Anniversary) .. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=2360593 Double whammy right there!
  12. Start saving up your loose change... This is going to be one heck of a bang for the up coming year for Macross goodies..
  13. Damn!! How is all that extra weight armoured set going to add to Arad's valk? Looks like Xaos found extra heavy artillery stashed somewhere... Now the MRSP is to be determined possibly at the Tamashii event I take it? Good eye! Edit: One more thing to add - Jungle has Mirage's supers for 10.8k yen (Grade A) for anyone who needs it . Note: No pics present http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=2474206

    My apologies if this was mentioned before as I didn't see during my quick sifts through this thread. Has anyone have the full set of the Banspesto Chibi-kun Walkure singers on hand (or clear pics of them together on a product shot)?
  15. Lil'Draken add-on up on Manda for 12K yen for now. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1080146157&ref=list
  16. Are you two guys ready for this?? http://news.toyark.com/2018/10/24/sideshow-iron-giant-cel-shaded-variant-maquette-321610

    As we know from Loopaza Mega Store scans posted on the HMR thread of the VF-4, the Spirits Kuji Sheryl is 20cm tall (approx. 8 inches) and anyone has space in their detolf/display cabinet for it? I'm going to upload the actual post from their FB page.

    Hi-Metal R

    I'm going to sit out on the HMR VF-4.. To me it's one of the obscure valks that doesn't really sit with me although it was shown in FB2012.
  19. The Merc with the Mouth is back - Dusty version this time. From Toyark's post yesterday - http://news.toyark.com/2018/10/22/dusty-deadpool-figure-by-hot-toys-321185
  20. Just seeing the Canada Post delivery van before I started work this late afternoon before my shift starts, I asked if the my packaged arrived and it did arrive (plus got to work on time). Got nabbed for $75.32 CND in customs. At least I have it before the Full Postal Strike happens across Canada and no busted head laser present even though the packing wasn't too great. Edit: Price correction and grammer
  21. I say it's both honestly. NY's CS is crap and Bandai said that they where cutting back in the production of the 31a, even Charles brought it up in his YouTube review. Others may have different opinions as I don't have a 31a.
  22. Based on jenius' review of the vf-19 advanced, the time frame of 18:09 -18:11 should be of help.
  23. Manda Nagoya has the Full Set DX YF-19 for 26K yen. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1098727057&ref=list Fukuoka and Complex has it for 28k yen
  24. One of the famous airfighters in Canadian Aviation history and had to mothballed be due to it being very expensive to make at that time and everything that was made for the program had to be destroyed as per Ottawa's request. Here's the Wiki page for it - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_Canada_CF-105_Arrow As you read further down the page, CBC Canada has made a TV Movie series and Dan Ackroyd (Blues Brothers) plays one of the reporter at that time (I have seen it couple years ago). Good thing that you got a copy of the plane @spanner as it hard to find one now. Edit: You can display it with the other Delta Winged aircraft as well (SV-262 Hs, YF-30 and the 31a).
  25. The Supers fit exactly the same as the original 31f. Nothing has changed in terms of the valk itself, just added the clips for the Lil'Draken add ons and an additional non-helmet Hayate into the mix. I posted a link for "newer" 31f on the last page and @Saburo has posted the pics of it also ( just a few posts before my write-up).
