Me too using EMS. Will post update if there's any, hopefully....

I got it at $225 before shipping. I picked EMS as well. Still no word from them.

Here's my growing VF-1S "Booby Duck" collection. Aside from a potential 1/48, any other versions or scales I should add?

 

What line is the tiny one from?

@Slave IV You were one of the first and you're still hanging with us! Much Respect!

There's still hope here

Managed to get one at Nin Nin at the higher price $225... I can rest now

This is the only DX I need to have! Will be my first time attending PO Madness. Not hopeful of any success, but still crossing my naive fingers.  Best of luck to everyone!

I've been saving stuff for Christmas for a few months and then it got out of hand lol

Nice Leo. I’m working on mine also. I don’t have any decals for it, so it’s just gonna get a grimy look. The kit is extremely simple and very few seams to deal with and the ones that are there are in easy spots to take care of. The ones on the lower arms and upper legs actually look like they should be there, so I haven’t decided if I want to fill those or just leave them.

Thanks! There's a ton of things I want to do better next time I do this kit, especially getting rid of the seam lines. The seams on the legs really do look fine and like you said they feel like they should be there.  Also I chose the wrong colors for scratches on the kit. The silver I picked doen't even register much haha. The waterslides I got were from a third party RG Tallgeese.  Looking forward to check out what you do with yours!

Finally got around to finishing my ver ka sinanju and sazabi. I just have to work on the decals but that can wait.

Great work on those kits! I want to get my hands on the RG Sazabi soon and the RG Sinanju in the future!

HG Leo. Fun little kit!

Grandpa!

I finally finished my RG Wing Gundam EW. Just did some paint on the clear parts and the yellow. Also added some minor dry brush weathering. You can check out more pics at the instagram link.

15 mins of Rise of the Red Comet. I remember reading somewhere the full thing will be on Hulu sometime in May.

Go with the Regult. There will always be Valkyries.

Seconded, the Regult and Glaug are some of the best HMR figures, along with the Desdroids.

Those Regults are sparce. I would love the 2 pack but it's way out of my budget. The Glaugs on the other hand...

Great choice with the RG GP01! That is a solid kit and still one of my favorites. If you planned on painting the beam rifle lens I recommend doing that first before inserting it into the beam rifle. There is no good way to remove the lens after it is installed. And carefully with the head antenna, the plastic is very thing and easily broken or stressed.  

Thanks! Thanks for the heads up. Those type of 'no going back' steps are always  something to be concerned about. Yeah I saw the antenna in the runner and got a little nervous lol

This is not a toy but it's going towards my Gunpla!

You got the right Valk to start with! Now, get an Armored GBP!
And then get some Regults and Destroids and see where the line really shines! 

Whoa, dejavu!

Haha Thanks!  I am debating if I should Get the Regult or Max's VF-IJ. Decisions decisions...

My first Hi-Metal R (hopefully not my last one) purchase. Also, dipping my feet on Gunpla as well ! It's gonna be a good weekend!

Thank you guys! Found one at Mandarake.  Should be here next week hopefully. Did not realize amiami had  pre-owned items! Definitely helpful for future purchases!

Might skip the Minmei, but I'm down for the upcoming Rick! 

I'm down for that KitsConcepts Rick Hunter. Hopefully it's around the $30 to $40 range.

Hey Guys,

I found out about Hi-Metal R's about 2 years too late and now I'm looking to find a Roy Focker VF-1S of the line. If you have one at a reasonable price, feel free to contact me.
