AC Starscream

I am trying to get a few of the Robotech MPC's but the prices are so high on them. Especially the Appendix armor they can go for as much as the MPC figure themselevs on Ebay. I hunted down a nice MPC Miria for a very decent price but looking for her Appendix is thae hard part without having to pay a lot of money. So I havent baught Miria yet.

Yep, I've been watching Max & Miriya's appendices go for $150 each and more at times! That's ludicrous. When a Max appendix demands the same price as a super Max 1/48 you know something is terribly wrong in this world. Be aware that Toynami has reissued Hikaru's armor already once, they may reissue all the armors again soon. After all, the armors were never described as a limited edition item and none of them are numbered.

Yea totally when I can get an Miria for about $45...why would I spend 3 times as much for her armor peices. And at that price point I might as well get an 1/48th! Your absolutely right about the price's being ludicrous.

I didn't know however about the Apendix's not being numbered and about Re-issues. Thanks for the info!

Well I might as well post what the original topic was about...what do you drive!

Well I have an 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9 Limited.

Like it's name it has an 5.9L V8 in which is about 245 HP but is a complete torque monster (I forget the # I am an 4 wheeler)

Modifications:

Rubicon Express 4.5 inch lift kit

Rancho 9000X Shocks

33 inch Wrangler MT/R on Wrangler Rubicon rims (got it off of my bro's wrangler before he went a rim size down to put 37's on his Rubicon)

ARB front bumper with 2 Hella off roading lamps

Tomken rear bumper with tire carrier

Wilderness Sports Rack with 4 PIAA offroading lamps, it also has a spot for my Hi-Lift jack

Someone has already done a photoshop color pic.

My friend Puck over at Seibertron.com also did a photoshop version of an MP Skywarp and Thundercracker.

(scroll down a little)

And since MP starscream is smaller then MP Convoy they might do repaints of Starscream into the 2 other seekers. I highly dount Takara would retool Starscream to do the cone heads. And I wouldnt be surprised if there was an E Hobby exclusive or some type of exclusive for Sunstorm since he has gotten so much attention and cult fandom the past couple of years.

As for MP-03 I really like him! THis is soemthing I have been waiting for, for a very long time! I just hope he comes with his Decepticon Crown of Leadership and Cornination armor. He will make an great center piece for my 30 piece Starscream collection (Sadly Super Starscream will have to move over).

Sometimes MPC armor sells for as much as 1/48 armor and that's just not right.

That is a very nice collection you have there. You have it laid out very well and it is very organized. You also have a nice huge queen alien in there and I can;t help but love the Alt/BT's you have in the lower left!

I have seen these cases before, someone posted their collection over at Seibertron and they had their TF collection in them. They display the figures so nicely and I would love to have about 5 cases to put all of my stuff. Alas I have really no room for display casses and so the top of my TV, Book shelf, and Computer desk act as my display for my Macross and select TF's.

Well I have just got into collecting the Macross stuff. Most of my money has gone into my Transformer collecting. The price point on Macross stuff has always put me off from buying any but the past month I have bit the bullet and gotten 7. They consist of:

Macross Zero:

1/60th VF-0S

Robotech MPC:

1/55th(?) VF-1J Miria

Super Dimensional Fortress Macross:

1/48th Super VF-1J Miria Fallyna

1/60th Super VF-1J Miria Fallyna

DYRL:

1/60th VF-1A Hikaru

Macross Plus:

1/72nd VF-11B (Fast pack)

1/72nd VF-11B (Normal version with aspirations of converting him into an Armada Starscream custom paint scheme)

1/72nd YF-21

1/72nd VF-19A

Other:

1/55th Transformers G1 Jetfire

Though the only one that has arrived so far is my VF-1A.

Welcome to the forums AC Starscrem ... from a fellow newbie!!

Yes, please let us know if the Valkyrie shipped ok - just curious, which vendor did you use?  And was the price of $165 with shipping?

Thanks!

Thanks Vermillion!

Yes it is an Buy It Now for $150 and then $15 shipping. He is an Ebay seller and has quite a few left, about 17. Also he has 100% feedback...

He just got his in and like I said shipped mine out today so...hopefully in a few days he will be mine! And then I can show him off to my Transformer friends over at Seibertron.com (I am apart of a thread on their toy forum devoted to Macross and Robotech).

Hey guys first time posting on this website. I have used this website many times before in getting infromation and great pictures/reviews of the Macross toys. I have finally decided to become an member!

I was able to get an 1/60th VF-0S off of Ebay for about $165 shipped from an US seller. It was mailed out today and should arrive in a few days or so. From what I have seen it looks awesome, though some of the stories of bent things has me a bit worried. Hopefully I will be able to get a prestine version! I can't wait for it to arrive! I will do a little update as soon as it arrives and tell you guys if it arrived ok!
