    Hopefully we get these teases.

    Hear hear! I looked up if there was going to be a season three and ran a across a little bit of trivia. Two members from the band My Chemical Romance (I don't think I know thir stuff) did the comic book series. That may explain the really good soundtrack. Also that the comic series was in three groups (or whatever) so it sounds like plans are for a third season. And it will probably wrap up nicely.

    Thanks! I've been seriously hunting these for about a year now. Some are pretty tough to find like the Mazinger and Energer in the original colors. I just scored that Mazinger recently. I think I lucked out on that Reideen. I saw a pic, searched Mandy, and they had one. I haven't seen once since. And of course tracking them down at anything near a reasonable price is a challenge. A original color Shin Getter (I have the re-paint) fetches over $1000 if you can find one! I adore the Ex Gokin line. In the Super Robot realm I think it's tops for me. I would LOVE to see a Ex Gokin VF-1S Roy Strike in Battroid! Can you imagine how cool a "monsterized" version of that would look?

    Hi, my name is sqidd and I'm a Macross-Holic. I'm not a fan of the VF-4 in Battroid or Gerwalk. And Fighter is "ok" (all personal opinion of course). And I also don't have a good way to display it. My Hikaru shelf is chock full and I don't have any "random" shelves. Everything has a theme. In the case of Macross either by what show they're from or character (which is usually the same thing). But my addiction addled brain keeps whispering to me "Get a couple. You know you want to. What if you regret it later? Everyone is doing it".

    Tapes! Remember those?! Remember when you could actually wear your music out? In Justice For All was the first "metal" that I was introduced to. Up to that point I was into Van Helen, Motley Crue, Ozzy and all of the 80's hair bands. In Justice For All was my gateway to where I was supposed to be the whole time. I went the metal route hard from that point. In my 20's added punk and then ska. In my 30's added classical and opera. In my 40's I added jazz and blues. Also a huge Sinatra fan. Still love my meal though. Lately I've been infatuated with Walls Of Jericho. I dialed up some Sepultura for a workout the other day. Man, Beneath The Remains still holds up.

    @ghostryder inspired me to re-pose my Battroid 1S Hikaru for the first time since I un-boxed it.

    Keep in mind that $450 was with Super & Strike Parts and a missile set (which don't come with the Valks). And as previously;y mentioned shipping has added a whole new level of complexity to cost. My Tenso address is really paying off right about now. Not that they cost anything.

    Getter 2 joins the Ex Gokin party. Man, I LOVE the zoomies on the drill motor!

    Metallica was dead to me after In Justice For All. I'm almost 50. Still in the middle of the pit.

    Getting DX PO's is like getting Metallica concert tickets. You have minutes at best. The success rate on the last PO seemed really low from what I saw on here.
  11. sqidd
    Negatory. Generally you only get word a couple days before they kick off. Then a few days after that you get to stay up all night hitting F5 for a 10% chance at securing a PO at retail. I don't even attempt PO's. I wait for release day and score what I need to then at whatever the going rate/markup is. In my head DX Valks are $250-300 before shipping. And now with COVID it's gotten even more expensive to ship. I imagine when the Focker is released most of them will hit US shores at $350+.

    I looked all over for screws for this dude. This is what I found: 8mm screw https://www.metricscrews.us/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=98_298_304&products_id=1263 6mm screw https://www.mcmaster.com/91305A101/ If you need pins send me a PM. I'll figure out some economical way of getting them out to you and help cover my costs from buying bags between 50-100 (the only way I could find them).

    Very cool!!!
  15. sqidd
    So, no pilot for the normal release?
  16. sqidd
    I get that. Having all of the VF's would be really cool! The question is how to display them. All in fighter> All in Gerwalk (who would do that?!) All in Battroid or some sort of mixture. Ideally I would think a wall cabinet about 15' x 12" x 12" so they could all be limed up in one continuous display would be the cats hind quarters. That would be epic! Are you limiting it to VF's only? Excluding VT's, VE's, YF's, etc?
  17. sqidd
    I kinda bummed. I like buying Valks. But this one really isn't calling to me. I'm usually either "TAKE MY MONEY" or "Hard pass". I'm in the middle here.
  18. sqidd
    Or use a Tenso address.

    If anyone needs pins let me know. I have a ton of them.

    They will auto update your order to the lower amount if the price drops? That's a nice feature! I'm not sure what to do about this one. I like the VF-4 design. But I'm getting a bit cramped. I'd want to make it part of my Hikaru display, but that would mean a additional Hikaru shelf that I would need to fill up. And that would mean needing a couple Skull One Hikaru's (Roy colors) with Fast Packs or Boobie Ducks (did I spell that right?). I just spent about $2200 typing that!

    I REALLY like this one! I may have to copy that.
  23. sqidd
    That seems pricey. Does it really not come with a pilot?

    He want's to know if there are any left for sale.

    Thanks! I just went and checked and my VF-1S with Supers has multiple heads in there. I didn't even notice. I don't need another. That Batmobile is AWESOME!!!
