    I don't think he does. I ordered some "generic" looking stand adapters for the 1/12's. I plan on figuring out a good way of interfacing with the YetiStands maybe using them as a jumping off point. Maybe just starting from scratch. It's actually a lot easier for me to make things out of aluminum than plastic. I'm a bit timid about "pinning" the 1/12's with an aluminum pin. I'm going to sneak up on it and see what I can come up with. Once you start using YetStands you're screwed (well, at least I am). Regular "colored" stands hurt my eyes now! And it's really nice being able to double figures up on one stand. For example the M&M's below. That's a whole lot of Valk on one shelf. I'm still playing with this one a bit still. I'm going to turn the Battroid's out 45deg with some adapters @ChaoticYeti made me. And I need to do something with the Gerwalk setup. I'm not sure what yet though.

    Got the last Ride Armor out of the box tonight. A MISB Toynami 1/10 Scott. Even though it was MISB time took its toll on the red "pajamas". They came apart every time I moved it. Oh well, I'll have to do @jenius fix on that at some point. I made some adapters to put the 1/10's on a single YetiStand. I didn't feel like messing with that tonight though. There will inevitably be some trickery involved in getting that to work. Now I'm ready for the Sentinel Legioss's!

    She was adorable in Blade Trinity though. Just sayin.

    You're killing me with this shot! I would display it a lot like that (if not exactly). I want to want one of these sooooooo bad. I love the sculpt, detail, size and if I'm being honest.....exclusivity. There is just something missing in that "gut want" department for me though. Or to be more specific the "gut want" over cost equation. The higher the cost, the more the "gut want" needs to be for me. This big beautiful bastard is right on the line though. If I could get one for PO pricing I'd probably pull the trigger. What is the actual overall height/width? Would it fit in a Detolf with adjustable shelf height?

    I'd strongly consider one for 93,000 yen.

    After looking at all that I agree, the Magic Square is tops for me. Looks like that standard paint job unit is not exactly "available". I found a couple eBay auctions, for too much money. The metallic version is available new from TF Source for a very fair price. Are there any differences to know about aside from the paint? Looks like the metallic is well, metallic. And missing the yellow arrows on the forearms and the Autobot symbol on the shoulder. Anything else to know? I may pull the trigger on one of those. TF Source Link Thanks!

    Can you guys help e out? I'm starting to amass a pretty good size Prime collection. One thing I don't have is a MP-10/MP-44 type/size example. I'm not going to pay Takara kind of money. One, I don't really care to have the trailer (space reasons). And I will want two. One for each mode. I'm not anti 3P either (already have 3P stuff). I have seen where there are examples that are truck only (no trailer). But I'm in option overload. There is just so much stuff out there. What would you guys say are the top three options? I know this is the 3P thread, but if let's say the Hasbro Toys R Us version is a great example, put it in the running. Thanks!

    I would be interested if this trend was the same for Japanese customers. Baseless speculation here, but I suspect that US customers are getting bumped to April because they don't care as much about the US customer and know most of us will keep buying anyway. I had a couple members here kindly sell me their extra Strike Packs at PO or very close to PO pricing (thanks guys!!!!). And I purchased a couple more sets at "scalper" pricing so I had plenty on the shelf for future VF-1 re;eases and a couple customs (Come on Focker!!!). The price I paid for the scalper units was not THAT much higher than PO pricing. This is not the first time I have waited until something was released to get one/some recently. I'm not paying much of a premium at all. And in a lot of cases getting my units faster than people who PO'd them. I'm not saying I won't try and PO stuff in the future. I will when I can. But I'm no longer stressed about getting PO's on PO night anymore. If I get them I get them, if I don't, I don't. I certainly have places I will not be PO'ing from that's for sure. AE and NY being two of them.

    Oh yikes, I didn't know it was that "inexpensive".

    I imagine people buying off Amazon right now are getting theirs for less money than most people who PO'd when you take shipping into account. How much was the PO price?

    This one ships international and they have 8 in stock. https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B07T24NX2N/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A13ZHFMBEWZ6HY&psc=1

    The first couple I picked did. Luck of the draw I guess.

    That's a smokin deal!

    Sort by ones that are Prime Shipping. That will get you a list of what is fulfilled by Amazon. $1334.55 is what it will cost me shipped to Michigan. Which seems really reasonable. I wanted one of these bad. Until I saw the lack of articulation. Now I just can't justify it. Too bad, I still kinda want one.

    If I were to make one as a replica (I've thought a lot about this and may still do it) I would start with a Ducati Monster. One of the 4v liquid cooled 140hp motor equipped models (pictured below). That's because you can get them pretty cheap. It's getting chopped up anyway. No need to start with a pricey bike. If in fantasyland I was making one that would turn into armor and had to use a internal combustion engine (it would also need a lot of battery power) something like a minimum twin cylinder two stroke would a pretty good power plant. Light, simple, powerful, etc. But really if we're talking about fantasyland electric would be the best way. Assuming we had some alien technology level batteries to work with. Ours are not nearly energy dense/light enough (and probably never will be). Under no circumstances would I do one that said Harley Davidson anywhere on it.

    That was me. It got right past me. I wasn't invested in the show enough at that point to remember everyone's name (or understand half of them). I had never read the books or played the game either. I had nothing to work off of. By the time I realized I should have paid better attention to what was going down (I was just veggin' on the couch) it was very apparent what was happening. I think that was half way through episode fun show. I'm looking for ward to more.
