    He did in DYRL I believe.

    Can you post pictures? I would like to see the extent of the damage. Also, how much pressure did you put on the spine during transformation?

    I rarely go to bars. Last time I went to a bar was... undergrad senior year, I think? But to answer your question, yes I do get carded almost always at restaurants, whenever I order strawberry daiquiris or some alcoholic beverage that resembles a milkshake.

    My fiance says, and I quote, "The first 3 Star Wars movies sucked!" Now he is complaining about pod racing and metal chlorine.

    Hey, I know what Star Wars and Transformers are. I just haven't watched those particular movies.
  8. Shizuka the Cat
    ???? Is that supposed to be a reference to something?
  9. Shizuka the Cat

    I find PO madness to be a lot of fun. I enjoy trying to find toy listings on various sites, see which ones are available and which ones are sold out, and updating my list. Maybe it is because I have only been collecting Macross toys for about 1 year, but PO madness is quite exciting to me. Admittedly, PO madness can be a bit stressful. But, in the end, I think of Macross toy collecting as a hobby, a luxury, Missing out on an initial pre-order, but still being able to buy it at a bit of a markup, can be a bit disappointing, but as my fiance would say, that's a first-world problem. So, while I want to get a 1/60 VF-11C, yet don't want to spend $500 for it, I am not going to let my annoyance at that price inflation on eBay ruin my day. Owning the toy might cheer me up a bit, but my lacking the toy will not sour my outlook. What DID annoy me was getting stopped by campus police this morning. So, this weekend is CPW (Campus Preview Weekend), where high school seniors accepted to MIT get to visit campus for the weekend, visit lectures and sleep at the dorms, to help them decide whether to enroll here or at some other university. So anyways, I went to lab this morning (and am still here) to work on my missile swarm path finding simulation code. A campus police officer thought I was one of those kids visiting campus trespassing in a restricted access lab. *sigh* Couldn't the officer at least thought I was an adult in a restricted area? *argh* My fiance is going to LOVE hearing about this. *sigh*

    Scanning thru past MWF posts, @Mommar said that Loopaza was fine. Also, @OzmaLee74 stated that he received something from Loopaza in the VF-31 thread. So, I am guessing they are safe.
  13. Shizuka the Cat

    No problem. It just shipped, so it should arrive in like 4 weeks. I will let you know how it is when it arrives.
  15. Shizuka the Cat
    Did anyone here manage to get in a pre-order at YesAsia?
  16. Shizuka the Cat
    No longer available on YesAsia. I hope some folks here on MWF managed to secure some pre-orders from there.
  17. Shizuka the Cat
    Live on YesAsia? Within the last 3 or 4 hours.
  18. Shizuka the Cat
    It has been several years since I last use YesAsia. But, back then, I had a good experience with them.
  19. Shizuka the Cat
    I think you pick the 4 piece and then choose quantity 1. As for the one stand with the black pads on it, I wonder if they give you the pads that you can then attach on. I am not sure.

    Saw this on eBay. Is this a real Arcadia product? https://www.ebay.com/itm/ARCADIA-The-Super-Dimension-Fortress-Macross-Meltlandi-Military-Fortress/123144467156?hash=item1cabfb72d4:g:id4AAOSwEzxYXgEM
