Thanks for the quick down and dirty of the 3P Sazabi  @SuperHobo. I didn't get int he first batch. And I am going to keep my pre-order for the second. Looks pretty good IMO.

No..no.. I will endure to maintain my.....

Oh look at that awesome robot!

Same here!  It's the little things that count haha.  I also find that, for some of the more hidden switches on other figures, I only end up turning on very rarely out of laziness.

Thanks again, happy to help!  I would love to see your shots and poses with it when you do.

Thank you sir!  I hope it clears customs soon.  I ended up grabbing a Steel Legends Kshatriya and a Sinanju last night.  Now I gotta watch the anime to justify lol.  I'm still on the fence with the Sazabi...

 

I got the Steel Legends Ksh. That was the first I ordered and am still waiting. I have 4 or 5 things from ShowZ in transit. Actually excited to get a few non Macross items in the collection.

When i started re collecting Macross o told myself " just Macross stuff for me." That didnt hold to long! I think that there are some enablers here! Honestly a free clean picts and I find myself justifying the additions.

Now that would be a trip. Literally.

Well..so far anyways all the ingested paint chips from my parents old window cills haven't had much long term affects.or at least any I can track. 

Great flicks @sumyumgoy. Mine has been held up in New Yorks Inspection post office since the 15th. I worked for the Postal Inspection Team for a time as an analyst, and cant say they will test for lead. I know they will for other "substances"

Wow , price went up a bit to $179 .

i hope it’s not a 1 run deal . 

I hope it's as good as it looks and as good as what I've seen in video reviews. It seems like they make sure that when doing any video reviews, that thier copy is super right on the joints. Then reports of loose joints start popping up.

And just got the shipping notice for the 1/100 Metal Kingdom Strike Gundam.

I gave in. Just PO'd this guy.

I to PO'd the MN-02. Haven't paid the full yet though.

Reviews I just found on Motor Nuclear MNQ-02

Hopefully I can secure one. Just bit the bullet on the 1/72 Strike. That was the harder to find for a reasonable price, and still wasn't cheap. The buster will be the next.

Let us know your thoughts on it @sqiddwhen time permits 

Not a bad price considering. Watched a few reviews on it. Seems like a decent model/toy.

Out of Stock already? That was quick.

 

It was out of stock beforehand. I have been checking daily. They just don't grey out the "Add to Cart" once all the stock is spent. But Where it shows how many are left it has stated "Out of stock." since I was shown that site.

Just got email on shipping as well for the Sinanju.

Speaking of the VF-4G

Thanks that appears to (it is suppose to anyway) work but it keeps declining my payment methods paypal and credit card with an error message about insufficient funds.  I even got a fraud notification from my bank after trying to use my bank card.  lol.  I cleared that up and it still won't let me pay for the item.

If I remember, you have to have money already stashed in your Pay Pal account. They then get access to that and pull from there. If there is a zero balance that may be the issue.

NY already demanding blood money for the HMR VF-4 that comes out at the end of next month.

Until it doesn't release next month and they may keep the money. For insurance purposes I mean.

I cant remember who mentioned this to us way back regarding the pre-order for the strikes. But they mentioned AE, as I had not used them previously I decided to do so. I recieved an email that i wouldn't be getting them until the April release. However; they then sent out an email stating that they were wrong and I was right. I only got 3 sets (wouldn't mind a few more). Overall, and in MY EXPERIENCE only, AE was a good call. 

So thank you....DAMN it (someone deserves some kudos) I forgot who recommended them. By the time I ever got any email acknowledgement that Mandrake has a set of strikes they are already gone. Every single time. I'll try for a few more sets in Mar/April when the second batch is released.

I javent found any myself @jack. I am interested to see some progress images myself.

Did you paint it gold on the highlights cuz the review I saw showed it as silver where yours is gold? In mines in the mail it was shipped a while ago so I should receive it sometime in the near future.

Think even the March release is to soon to fix the issues? 

Then I guess I'm glad I accidentally missed the first run I thought that my payment was soon enough.

Oh man. I forgot that one. 

Do I really really need another Strike for the upcoming Sword/Launcher Pack? Decisions. Decisions.

I to prefer the muted colors of the pre production.
