    Got a SMS from DHL saying my Angel Bird will arrive Tuesday.
  2. Radioguy
    A-E reached out to ask if I want the shipment now. YES, I said.

    True, any VF-1A/J/S with a 1D head would be a mongrel without the right cockpit, but I'd grab one if a full kit weren't on offer.
  4. Radioguy
    Has anyone designed a Yamato 1/48-compatible VF-1D head for printing?
  5. Radioguy
    Since the hardpoint ports are there, what's the chance that someone will offer red, white, and blue painted missiles or super parts on eBay? Yeah, non-canon, but definitely maximizing the toy's capabilities and maybe making a penny off those with some imagination.

    I could see myself owning this one. It's a good sculpt of Grant.

    I'm sad to say it was my first middle of the night PO acquisition. I wish I had been in the same position when the Kakizaki VF-1J or VF-1D were up among other DX offerings. 😒 I'm glad I haven't missed a VE-1 or VT-1 yet.

    Congrats to all who wanted it and got in!

    When are folks (in the US, especially) likely to start getting their Angel Bird POs, though?
  10. Radioguy
    Wow. Well, this IS the God Of Flame.
  11. Radioguy
    What batch were you in? 1st? 2nd? 3rd+?
  12. Radioguy
    Love that Bishop comes separated like that. 😄

    Actually thought it was this guy... https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/the-robotech-thread.1036141/page-107#post-20931376 But the box number is wrong, so he's not alone!

    But when??? I swear I don't what's happening these days. I still can't get my head around two companies having matching licenses (which the scale and articulation seem to be) with equal world distribution. Unless TZ has to wait for KC to shut down its range first...

    Shame. They would sell. But I do get the ease of KO'ing the 1/55 design. Less parts, to be sure.
  16. Radioguy
    Hardy har-har. 😄 But seriously...they seem so easy to KO. If they were a few bucks a piece, I'd actually grab a bunch and laud them for being worth it.
  17. Radioguy
    Just curious...have there been KOs of Toynami 1:100 releases? I mean the quality is already on par with KOs... 😄
  18. Radioguy
    My gut says maybe $800 during a 3am PO, but $1k going forward.
  19. Radioguy
    Apparently, GOF orders are requesting the second payments now, so I guess they will soon ship. I look forward to actual received GOF pics.

    Joy of the hunt?

    Radioguy replied to 26662's topic in Toys

    I still hit thrift shops (not expecting Macross stuff), and sometimes find the odd piece of vinyl I'm after and don't yet have. Finding something makes me feel like I did out of school when I spent hours doing stuff like that. Like a prospector finding a gold nugget. The internet, eBay especially, only fulfills when you find the odd item mislabeled and you score a bargain that others missed. That's like finding a platinum nugget (not so likely).

    I thought God Of Flame was to ship first.
  22. Radioguy
    I think I'm gonna wait for that too. I'm a guy who loves the actual IRL plane-based designs, and so skew to VF-1 variants, but I would want a YF-21 in 1:48. That is, unless I see one of the existing ones for like $10. I can only resist so much.
  23. Radioguy
    At times I agree with you, in that I love saving enough money at the end of the year that I can actually buy a figure with the difference. However, you can argue that should Macross become popular again, the items could be just as cheap sold here as a result. That's part of why I choose to support shops that carry Macross, and ask buyers to order Macross items when they can. I want the shops to survive, and Macross to get more exposure to other customers.
  24. Radioguy
    I'd considered ordering it too, but an online review cited looseness and attributed it to mold degradation. I'd be interested in your experience should you open and assemble it, @sh9000.
  25. Radioguy
    If they were, more might be produced, and, conceivably, the price might actually be lower as a result.
