Sir, don’t take this the wrong way and I’m not a moderator. But this is not actually the place to ask this. And since it’s a 1/48 question matter, you can ask this in the actual existing 1/48 scale thread or the quick question thread. There’s also the wanted section.

Thanks @Kuma Style! And you're welcome. Great photos as always. Thanks really go out to @Xigfrid, coz all I did is begged him to do it.

That's good to know. As long that he made you aware that it's missing then it's all good. Sorry, I'm not sure how much those go for. Regarding Resin Cast, that is also something I wanted to do but don't have time to do it. However, there's a lot of YouTube tutorial videos so I think that's a good start. As for the price question, I can't remember the exact cost before but I remember some member sold some resin cast of the said option part. But you should be careful on advertising it since it's prohibited by the admins to sell cast product of the original. Just a heads up on that.

@whitestar Nice! Looks intimidating. @slaginpit Looking forward to your comparison pics.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
no3Ljm replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I feel you, David. If only we have unlimited supply of cash then it's not a problem for us. -
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Lovely! I would've bought 2 Gedos back then too so I can display both variants but I couldn't afford it back in the day in the Philippines. And the Zwarth is so expensive back then over there. I ended up getting it 2 years ago over eBay for a good price. The bad thing though is that I have the Zwarth here and the rest are in the Philippines. I know the pic below is from the R.P.R. Megahouse line, but a SIC Billbine based on how the RPR look, would've been great for sure.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
no3Ljm replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Based on everyone's feedback here like F360's, the figure is great. Almost as par with a MB figure. Though I'm really not a big fan of this redesigned RX-78 (I do like the RX-78 redesign from MG kits OYW and Ver.3), and I don't have a Metal Build-esque Grandad Gundam so I'll settle with this one. I just hope it's somewhere around Y10000+ and not Y15000+. No PO date yet. And no release date mentioned in that photo too. -
Did you also order the other one? Let me know what you think of the SL Kshat. And if it's not too much of a trouble, can you take a photo of it with any of the MB 00 suits or any MB Freedom beside it just to compare. Thanks!

Not to contradict anyone. But with all these packaging and shipping costs talk, I rather use the one that has great customer service for my peace of mind.

Dusting one by one takes time so I use this. Hahaha! Kidding aside I use microfiber duster or those compressed air cans.

Sorry for the sad news. It didn’t show up on my bowling ball. Sorry for the ‘bowl’ typo above. Hahaha! As much as I would like a DX YF-21, it’s not feasable for 2019. 2021, perhaps? ‘21 is a good year for a YF-21. Don’t you think? If that one will come true, remember it’s me who predicted it. My bad. I did forgot that one. Hahaha!
-
Hahaha! Been here long enough ‘lurking’ to make a good guesstimate. After I looked in my all-seeing eye bowling bowl the Macross POs for this year are: - DX VF-1 Super/Strike Packs - DX VF-1 Manipulators - DX VF-31S Armored Pack - HMR Tomahawk - DX VF-1S Roy Focker - DX VF-1S Hikaru Ichijo

Chuck? I know you’re not serious, right?

Great! Thanks JVM! We’re really getting used to now on this guessing PO schedule game.

Sorry to hear about that. Did you purchase this just recently? Did you purchase this directly from Arcadia? If not, where did you order this? Here's some pointers based on what I've read here over the years and based on online store experience. - If you purchase this from Arcadia directly, then you should try and reach out their Customer Service. - If you purchase this from any of the Japanese Online Store, you should also try and reach out to their Customer Service. However, do note that there's a number of days after you received the item to report any damage or missing items. And this is why I always open my package to double and triple check if everything is complete. - Do note that since we're outside Japan, there's no guarantee that we will be helped 100%. - If you're unsuccessful from getting help from any of the Customer Service, you can try posting it on the Wanted Section and ask members if they're willing to sell theirs. - You can also do some crash course on making your own resin cast since you still have an extra set to copy and mold it. Hope that helps. Good luck.

Sad to say, Boss. He didn't made it.

So based on the photos, I noticed that the Radome when folded is not flushed to the legs. It protrudes a little bit unless you use the landing gears.

@Saburo Looks nice.

By the way, BBTS has some FEXT System Display Module for sale: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Search?Company=928

Nice! By the way Chavakaiser, did you complete the S.I.C. Dunbine figure line? The only gripe I have for that line is that Bandai didn't produce a Billbine figure. -
That too.

Great review, JVM!

It's true that they overcharge. But using their shipping calculator gives the customers a good idea on how much they need to pay depending on which shipping method they choose. Seeing that the EMS in that NY calculator shows Y4500, it's safe to assume that the weight of the said item is 2kg. And I verified the same info via JapanPost's website: https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/charge/list/ems2_en.html Using JapanPost website for a 2kg package bound to North America: EMS: Y4500 - https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/charge/list/ems2_en.html Economy SAL: Y3850 - https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/charge/list/parcel3_en.html# Airmail: Y5050 - https://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/charge/list/parcel3_en.html# I cross-checked the same weight en-route to America with AmiAmi: https://www.amiami.com/eng/payment-shipping/ EMS: Y4500 SAL Parcel: Y3850 I also checked CDJapan's Shipping Calculator to America with the recent Arcadia's 1/60 VF-1J Max since they might share the same weight and dimension box for the VE-1 just to have a sense on how the shipping costs differs from other online stores: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-249730?s_ssid=e47f765c4a8ca1b507 EMS: Y5200 Economoy SAL: Y6500 Dewpoint posted the CDJapan's link for the VE-1 on the next page so here's the price using its Shipping Calculator: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOGDS-320836 EMS: Y4100 Economy SAL: Y5010 Seeing the cost above for the Economy SAL, Nippon-Yasan 'sand AmiAmi's price is more in-line with JapanPost's SAL pricing. Since the shipping cost varies from one store to another, there's no guarantee what's the exact amount until this shops email us for additional fees and whatnot. But they do help the customers to decide which shipping method to use. And at the end of the day even if Nippon-Yasan do overcharge, if anyone decided on preordering it from them, then we are basically bound to pay whatever the shipping cost they showed us on that calculator. Hope that helps. Edit: I want to add that based on member's post here regarding Amazon's shipping cost, I think ordering from them is the practical choice at Y1200 using DHL. However, do note that we don't have any feedback yet on how's their customer service for broken parts, missing parts, or with dented box. So take it with a grain of salt. 2nd Edit: Since Dewpoint posted the CDJapan link for the VE-1, I checked its Shipping Calculator to US and added the cost above.
