  1. I'll be much more concerned about delivery delay than radiation...

    Just think about destroyed roads and highways, and also about the crowded air traffic in the few operational airports !!

    Priority has to be on survival goods much more than on transporting toys... (nonetheless, they are toys :( )

  2. Hi,

    I just love the world cup ! (ironinc tone...)

    Just yesterday, as one of my Portugese neighbor in France wen't wild driving like crazy (at least 70 km/h in a 30 km/h residential area) and using his horn, I went to his hours trying to tell his wife to leash her dog.

    In her unwillingness to respond to the doorbell, I went nuts myself and removed the Portugese end Brazilian Flag the neighbour had set up hanging from his roof and put them in his mailbox.

    I know that it wasn't really smart to do.

    As an end result, the neighbour came back after the Portugese defeat, and went totally nuts, insulting me around the whole block and speaking out death threats, insulting me for being a racist and that I will pay for this. Other neighbors had to call the police to make them calm him down and the unleashed dog just stayed up guarding his porch for 3 hours until late at night, speaking (or hopefully being reasoned) with another neighbour.

    ...Morality: I just love sportive bahavior of people.

    Finally, I recall two sentences about soccer:

    The first one from a cab Driver in Marseille: "Concerning soccer, we'd have to buy 21 balls in order for the players not to have all to run behind the same ball."

    The second one: "Soccer is the only sport for which poor people pay to watch billionnaires run!"

    I can't help myself from thinking that both phrases somehow contain awfully true images.

    As an end result, I'm considering on hanging a flag myself to my roof ; I'm not sure anyone will really catch the humor of hanging a EU-Flag ! (Sorry about the non EU contries :), but I do not know about a world Flag ; well actually, isn't there a U.N Flag ?)

  3. If you haven't seen the movie i won't say anything yet. :lol:

    I might not be as delicate :)

    ... just prepare yourself for a lot a action, and some interesting story hints. As for the first movie, stay until the end of the credits to see some extra scene.

    Story arc could have been further developped, but movie is still very enjoyable.

    I'll now be waiting for Iron Man 3 :)

  4. So now there are at least four cases of SWS that I know of. Waiting on a fifth owner to confirm whether or not he has it as well.

    Starting to look like it's either a whole manufacturing run or Bandai did it intentionally.

    Hi, you got you're fifth!

    I just received my Tornado Pack today and am in the process of sending AmiAmi an e-mail myself.

    Let's be positive : We have a special collector's edition of SWS Tornado's :)

  5. Hi, why not contact bandai (eventually through HLJ) to order some spare parts of the model kit. You cannot order single parts, but you can order the plastic piece they are on.

    Just check your kit's manual for the needed plastic pieces...

  6. No, the Roy cockpit was a normal figure.

    However, Series 2 included a chase Hikaru cockpit.

    Basically, Series 3 included a standard recolored version of series's 2 chase figure.

  7. Registered SAL or airmail.

    Usually still significantly cheaper than EMS to Europe (+ less import duties)

    I order stuff from HLJ on a regular basis and deliver it to France. I must conclude to the same statement as Salamander. SAL is cheaper and usually happens in the end to be faster than EMS:

    SAL -> 10-20 days from HLJ storage to my shelf

    EMS -> 2 days from HLJ to CDG Airport Paris and then 3 weeks until it cleared customs (real story!) + right to pay tax, then 2 days from CDG Airport to my shelf.

    Concerning the policy on wich HLJ sometimes say they will only ship by EMS ... I never really have understood it since it seems to apply randomly (I would advise on clicking regularly on "ship by sal" in your profile .... My two YF-21 got shipped by SAL, whereas my 2 Supersylph where sent by EMS )

  8. Looking for this figure.... :lol:

    Kindly do PM me if you have.

    I've got quite a few lying around. From what I recall Kicker also had some for sale a short while ago.

    I'd be willing to let a few go, but unfortunately the Eur / Dollar exchange rate is not at best for th time being. If interested, we should pursue on PM.

  9. ... I can't wait until it gets released this summer.

    Certainly, the price will ba a pain in the a** but we still have some time to save the money until it's release.

    In a way, it's still almost a 1000 Yen per centimeter ! :o ... I would have appreciated if it was a little bigger (1/48?)
