  1. I'd prefer to see your review over all if you did. Consider it a public service. 😉
  2. Yeah, I'd choose a standard finished set. At least to start with. 😉
  3. Oh, for those worrying about the box, this now appears on both ShowZ listings: *When ordering the cardboard boxes, we will make them larger to ensure the packaging flap can be shipped without bending
  4. Hrmm, not as good as I had thought. Still nice, though. I'd have bought it for just being clear red.
  5. Got my shipping notification.
  6. Yeah. Red fast pack sold me most, I have to admit. GITD mechanic covers too. Still looking forward to at least Valk Factory quality on the figure, though.
  7. The whole time I watched all three, I was thinking on what I had to do to make him a KARR. I imagine dumping that EEPROM and flashing Cullen clips on it would be the biggest hurdle. Kept thinking changing the transparent red visor and scanner to yellow would be obvious, but putting a Megatron head on him in black might be even more apropos.
  8. Squats?
  9. Yeah, Amazon has cancelled POs on this, but I was just given an offer I couldn't resist (a mix of promotions that brought this under $100 there), and I bit. Let's see what happens...
  10. I'm even more worried now. Are you just feeling pragmatic, or relying on some past experience in a situation like this with Bandai?
  11. Macross hoarding is a terrible disease. I pride myself on helping fans like yourself declutter and improve your lives with my takeaway service at very reasonable rates. Just call 1-800-GOT-VALKs and leave off the last s for saving...space.
  12. Ah, a herd of Schrödinger's Ostritches. (Yes, they are called a herd)
  13. LP saying now they just emailed Bandai "again". Now, I'm worried.
  14. That's me then.
  15. I'd be game.
  16. There's obvious more variance from screen accuracy here than most other lines, but it has me intrigued. I wonder what the Lucky Cat Jetwing (if it's still happening) will bring next, now.

    Hi-Metal R

    The only drawback, and someone called them fiddly, is that HMR requires more parts swapping than 1/60+ scales which have integrated landing gear etc. All will have trays of parts, but 1/48 is obviously easier to handle than 1/100 when it comes to them. As one with Carpal Tunnel, I can tell you my HMRs are not as enjoyable to transform. Once I have them in a mode, they usually stay there.
  18. I had one slip through my fingers as a kid, and haven't had another since. I would like to own it too, and a few other 1/55s as well, but budget is such I prioritize DX > Arcadia > Yamato, and have to see where TZ fits in that mix.

    1/100 or so. If you're looking for a place to start, this is it. Not too expensive, and not too big.
  20. Heh. Well, considering this is likely from Valkyrie Factory, or is a copy of it, this would be the right thread for it. It's certainly not a KO of a Takatoku 1/55, which I guess could kinda fit in the unlicensed 3P thread if it were in JF colors (although this generally would still remain the thread for Takatoku KOs). Plus, the only thing connecting the Fugu to Siege JF are the colors white and red, so this thread would still seem the ideal place. Still, wherever you decide to post it, I look forward to reading it. I know you'll take some great pics.
  21. Not this, but their customer service has taken a huge dive as of late in my opinion. I won't be dealing with them again.
  22. Christ, I need the kind of job most seem to have on MW. 😄
  23. https://japansociety.org/events/macross-plus-with-shoji-kawamori Yes, I am going.
  24. @ChristopherB What payment methods are you considering/working on? Something that allows installments might make the difference between going painted or unpainted for some. *cough* 😉
