    Hi-Metal R

    Grew up watching the animated G.I. Joe series back when I was younger and this got stuck in my mind..
  2. I got the Akira vibe there @Saburo. Wait a second here... Are you trying to unsurp me of my user pic by any chance?? Maybe I should change it..
  3. Love the burning Goji @tekering! X-Plus I take it? Eating Cheetos and fiddling with the 31a at the same time? That's a recipe for a major disaster right there and getting caught in the act. I take it that some may not be thinking clearly!
  4. Wait for the 31a release on FromJapan and other auction sites to be listed soon as I'm sure that some will trickle on to there eventually (?) ..

    Hi-Metal R

    The VE-1 is still open for order on Amiami for anyone that wants it.. http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-032939&page=top%2Fsearch%2Flist%3Fs_keywords%3Dve-1%24pagemax%3D40%24getcnt%3D0%24pagecnt%3D1 Waiting for the pre-order payment finalization for the VT-1. @Arthurius: Cutting your spending in TFs and focusing on Macross only?
  6. I could go for the 1/60 version as I don't have a copy of the VF-1J Armoured valk for now and will put it on my Arcadia DYRL Roy and wish that all the add-ons could be bundled together in a pack (I know wishful thinking, however it negates the need for getting all the separate amours to kit bash to your liking). Hmm.. I just made Commercial Property terminology reference there.
  7. Tell that to on one of the reviewers (Brian) on Knerdout as he said that the VE-1 is another veritech fighter (time stamp 0:38 to 0:45) on the HMR Elintseeker review.
  8. That would be the Legioss (Alpha Figher) that you have as shown above and the Tread (Beta Fighter) is the add on. Rook Bartley is voiced by Mika Doi (who also voiced Misa in SDF) and the original for her is Houquet et Rose. Link for more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genesis_Climber_MOSPEADA I couldn't connect with Calvary Southern Cross (Southern Calvary Cross) for some strange reason however Mospeada did. If someone remakes the Legioss and Tread, I would actually pick it up in a heartbeat (along with @Slave IV in conjunction) as I have a soft spot for the Alpha and Beta fighters. Hopefully that someone can make a better version of the Legioss than Evolution Toys (look at their 1/60 VF-2ss as it was a complete mess) while Aoshima made the 1/48 model kit (also a mess according to Shin Densetsu on the TFW2005 boards). Toynami made multiple copies of the Legioss (Alpha) fighter in Battriod mode chibi-fied and also the Alpha and Beta Fighter in Masterpiece Style. Note: How's Sentinel's version of the Cyclones so far? Both a hit and a miss I take it..

    And gone.. Someone has picked it up in a flash.
  10. Still brain fried after finishing off a commercial project (worth 30% of my course) yesterday with no sleep from Thursday 2am till 10:30pm. Going to start the exam tomorrow as open book. Initially to be done in class for 2 1/2 hours which consists of both multiple guess and written essay, however the instructor changed his mind two weeks ago as he had multiple meetings and most of the students where cramming to finish off the final project. Second attempt on the course itself as I don't have any exposure to Real Estate at all and from what I understand, most of people had to take the Commercial Property course the second time around as it is the hardest subject to pass. I'm hoping to pass this one this time round. My hauls over two days.. The 1/48 VF-1S Hikaru came in yesterday from Jungle [Last copy, Grade B with slight discolouration on the valk (not yellowed if your wondering, as the listing has said it was sunburned) and missing the gun strap after taking a second look in the box. Doesn't matter to me as I have the Super/Strike parts already]. The 3 TPBs are from my LCS two hours ago. Note: Is Bandai/Arcadia going to tackle the YF-21 sometime soon? I would probably pick up a copy.
  11. Does anyone still wants/needs a 31JKai? There's another copy available at the Shibuya store.

    Hi-Metal R

    Why does this remind me of Kamen Rider Kabuto to a degree?
  13. I got the HMR VF-1J Armoured at 18k yen from Sahra couple of months ago, as I passed on when it was first released then made my mind to get a copy before it becomes vapourware. Umeda had it for 6k to 8k yen (box re-sealed/open used/box damaged) back then and the last price was 20k yen at various locations. I'm the opposite of you @derex3592. I had the Yammie V.1 years ago, sold it and trying to get the Yammie V.2/Arcadia VF-1J Armoured now (preferably the Arcadia version this time). Maybe I'll just end up getting the PE version (if it does get released). I know that the Yammie V.2 VF-1J Armoured had problems with the exploding shoulders. Isn't that the same problem that you had with one of your Yammie V.2 valks @Shizuka the Cat (hopefully that it wasn't the VF-1J Armoured) and you used the Shapeways replacement correct?
  14. I was not including Mirage's 262 Ba in the lineup @Mommar. I was just making a reference to the Arial Knights in regards the Delta Platoon during Operation: Ragnarok and Rogue Squadron in ST: ANH.
  15. Congrats for snagging one of the 31a from Manda.. Note: If anyone still wants the 31J Kai, there's a supposed listing for it in on Jungle. Only one copy available as of now and the adage goes "You snooze, you lose".

    Elintseeker with the combo of Fast/Strike Packs? Although it's not cannon, I like the aggressive look to it.
  17. Unless you want or if anyone else wants to make a squadron of the 262 with either Keith's/Roid's Hs leading the pack with the Ba's not far behind (a la Delta platoon: Operation Ragnarok (?) or Rogue Squadron in ST: ANH during the Death Star run). Note: It's been a while since I've seen Delta so I might have forgotten a fair bit of stuff.
  18. All my purchases that was TWE from Amiami (S.H. Figuarts Duke) and NY (don't use them anymore after I got the HMR Strike Roy and the S.H. Figuarts Tune Chaser add-ons) where shipped in the brown shipper boxes. Haven't got a TWE from Manda yet; however I may at a later point in time. Edit: I used Jungle for my VF-171EX Alto Armoured Parts which was listed as used with no brown shipper box. The brown shipper box to me is an added protection as the actual product is inside.
  19. I don't really know. Here's my copy of Nora as I don't know the exact colour name of this one here; however Mirage is more of a Magenta colour. Can anyone verify the exact colour used in Nora's SV-51y? Edit: It is more Maroon in colour (after giving it much thought)?

    Hi-Metal R

    Sigh.. If the Ostrich had the defence capabilities (and not nerfed), then Hikaru would had a chance to get away from the N-Gers.
  21. @Rogueload: Are you waiting to get Arcadia's version of the SV-51 since you have the Yamato Nora? I snagged a Nora from Manda sometime in the beginning of this year (don't know which month exactly) as l prefer this version than compared to Ivanoff's or the Mass production ones.
  22. Should be a disclaimer here: That is when you get your 31a after many months of agonizing waiting..
  23. @kajnrig: I stand corrected. I somehow always think of the Ha instead of the Hs as I know the Ba is the other variant.
  24. I can actually see that in my mind, however the Ba will be the general release as (per the CF 171), while the Elvis and the Mirage will be the TWE. If the Elvis and the Mirage was the TWE, it better not be like the 31a mess in where it caused a headache for many that where actually waiting for it to be released after the pre-orders where up six months ago.. I can be wrong in that too. If one person has a busted up 262Ha and be willing to be a Guinea Pig for the project, I can see it as feasible; however does anyone want to give up their copy of the Draken? I think not..
  25. I was looking at the highest price for it @F360 on FromJapan. @Sanity is Optional: The highest list for the VF-171EX Maruyama was at 33k yen on Manda.
