Might be still available for pre-order.

We had this discussion awhile ago @Mommar. It’s based on the eta that Mezco has put on the characters page according to what Mezco expects it to finish and shipped out to customers. Right now it’s totally out of whack given the unexpected events that are happening around the world. Dorklair’s list on Mezco Reddit is incorrect right now as it’s based on what Mezco thinks it should be out and there is a boatload of mistakes in that list. Toypaige on Facebook has posted a few updates on delayed stuff. As of right now, no explanation on why ‘89 Bats, Mr Freeze, Constantine, Fantastic Four Box Set, GI Joe’s Destro and Roadblock, DLX Wolvie, Morbius, two Alien Zenomorphs et all is given by Mezco themselves as it’s all radio silence. Nothing on the teased solo Black Widow, Spider Gwen (auto correct kicked in and made it Queen), Cobra’s Firefly has been up in pre-order status.

My apologies if I didn’t understand the meaning of your post as I had a long day at work @Sandman and I’m still at work right as of now. Is if fair to compare the price of the v.1 25 to the now HMR VF-0??

Hey @Sandman Put this into perspective. We have to pay CBSA fees on top if the purchase when it comes into Canada from overseas. If you want to, then get it from the States and your still being dinged with CBSA fees anyways. We get hosed in everything that comes into North of the 49th. If you don’t want to pay the high price of collecting stuff overseas, then fly overseas and get it yourself if your that desperate.

I got Ghost Rider and Gaslights Bats on my list @Tking22. IIRC, Gaslights Bats is to be be out in next month and Ghost Rider is in August. Given the situation overseas with the rolling restrictions and Zero Policy of having no infection rate (unknown if it’s changed now), I think it’s going to be pushed back even further than expected. I’m actually surprised that some of the 1/6th stuff is actually rolling out . To be fair, Asmus is still literally ticking me off as I made a deposit of Liv Tyler v.2 from them one and half year ago years ago (when it was first annouced) for the regular version. They sent out the DLX first with asking more money for shipping it out (to cover the additional cost of a box change to those that bought it) and some members got it with missing parts. The regular one is to be followed up in conjunction of the DLX Orlando Bloom, but nothing has been mentioned at all on one of the Asmus forums as I think the lockdowns are still happening. So I’m thinking that it maybe another year before I get it. Edit: I think it was a year and half (corrected post anyways)??

From Hot Toys Facebook: Dead (Zombie) Strange - Edit: $385 USD Exo-6 Tuvok is up for grabs as well.

From Mezco Reddit yesterday More delays guys..

Toytards (Toyka Collectables) is located in Vancouver if anyone is curious: It's between Arbutus and Larch on W. 41 Ave (a fairly middle high class neighborhood as my one of my cousin's wife lived in the area during her younger years). Never dealt with them as I live close to the Vancouver/Burnaby boarder.

It’s more like proper equipment for the job requirements @Lolicon. It’s either you can be a good cook with proper cooking utensils and skills to make a good dish or make it like dog barf (literally speaking).

Here's Mark H's full review on his DX 25 MMW. I think the issues reported in his first impressions vid are isolated and not in all batches in the DX 25 MMW line up and it boils down to how the DX itself is assembled down the production line.

Haccaka's review on the DX MWW 25 https://hacchaka.net/archives/52081979.html * He recommends it for VF-25 fans since he thinks the sculpt is still good, but reported a loose left hip on his copy. *

Is my eyes playing tricks or is the blue scheme very close to Michael's 25?

Max’s Full Set 29 should be fine @Magnus as it’s taken one full run prior as Alto’s Full Set 29. I have not gotten Alto’s Full Set 29 as skipped over it as I wasn’t too interested in the colours itself, however I did get Mr. Banana Ears (RB) as it stood out more for me.

I take it that you do have a Full Set 19 @ValkAddict or not? Unfortunately the Full Set 19 has been discontinued from production, unknown if there will be another shot of getting another re-issue for those that are entering into the Macross Field. If you want to read further about the problems, then go into the DX YF-19 Full Set thread and read on and hopefully it will unravel for you. Onnasake’s did not know about the issues on the Full Set 19 and he literally had a hard time in repairing his own copy, however it just snowballed after that. Mark H’s video is not to tell anyone here not to get the newer version of the DX 25 MWW as his copy has problems, it’s just an TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) just in case something happens to your own personal copy. Even @Mommar pointed out an issue that could be possibly fixed and not condoning this version of the 25 is a fit for the metal recycling bin as it’s a totally junker. If you guys decide not to get the DX 25 MWW after this, then it’s your call.

That is also what I'm thinking @Angesdad as most likely that the joints are not tightened up from the factory. Look at the DX Full Set 19 for example. Onnasake's copy had super tight hip screws and he literally didn't know that those three screws had to be loosened before he did the transformation on it and had other issues. After sending back to Bandai's Service Center Hub, Onnasake got a replacement YF-19 and then the notices of caution followed up afterwards. I know that a fair chunk of us will not go over every detail as we expect perfect results from the factory upon getting it, however it should be things that one should be looking out for if things go wrong and how to fix it if needed.

Try this on for size and very useful around the kitchen if your cooking or into the Culinary Arts field. One decent good quality set will cost you around a price if a DX Valk. Read the reviews carefully and don’t go for the cheap bum sets that rusts/breaks apart/starts to chip away into pieces after a few days of useage.

First known review on the DX 25 MWW Never had a DX 25, however this might be the first one as do like the colours on this one.

Get ready my fellow Canuckle heads - The Canadian links should be showing up hopefully soon.

Crappy photo I know, however you get the idea.. Got my copy of Mirage's 31ax via Luna and literally had to drive over to my old address to pick it up as my new address did not get updated. Personally I don't mind the drive, as I was on the edge after reading so many reports and needed a distraction to take it off my mind. Packaged on a plain packing box with un-business like packaging. It's slightly improved, however it lacks finesse. For those that still want to go with Luna after my post, it's your money and you call. That's all that I have to say as of now.

@fifbeat - There's been so much heat on Luna on the various threads here, so make sure that you due your due diligence and most of everyone here has spoken up. It's your call to make the correct selection.

I didn’t have any issues with Chuck’s 31e at all @twich. That saying, I leave them in fighter mode and have no issues at with Messer’s, Mirage’s or Chuck’s 31.

It might be on this weekend if possible, however who knows.

One Sixth collection is just as equal @ValkAddict. Pay full pop and wait 3yrs later to get your item, however Bandai stuff is much quicker Hot Toys stuff. It’s just as bad on both ends to say the least. Toss in teases to wet your appetite then sooner or later “Bam”, it disappears and it’s swept under the rug and not brought up again or “I don’t anything about it”.

I might get my Mirage 31ax on either Thursday/Friday if it works out. Luna is really bugging my nerves more than NY due to the stuff that they have pulled so far. It’s in one of the DHL depots in the US (Cincinnati) and waiting for another plane ride to YVR. Might have to cherry-pick in the next Macross thing to get next as it’s becoming like a 1/6 hobby as stuff is getting pricier and out control.
