  1. I would spend an irresponsible amount of money on that.
  2. That's awesome!
  3. Yeah, I'm not going to bother un-boxing mine.
  4. There is a difference between asking price and "worth". The question is what is the standard OD actually selling for? People can ask $750 all day long. That doesn't mean that they're selling for that. Or selling at all. If standard market forces apply the non PF versions will drop in value. Or not sell. I'm guessing in the long run your best bet is to get the one you have weathered (especially at the price you get it for) and not buy the PF version. Just my $.02
  5. A little Mazinger Zero.....in front of big Mazinger Zero
  6. A Stealth w/ S&S parts came up on Jungle a few weeks ago. I dragged my feet too long. I'm mad at myself for not pulling the trigger. That is one sweet Va;k you have there brother!
  7. Exactly this. I still love my Yammie 48's. I really dig the old school "chunk" that they have. especially around the chest plate and how it scales with the head. That said, they're pretty floppy at this point and in my estimation display pieces only. Which is 99% OK with me because I'm a "display it and leave it" collector. They get sort of frustrating setting up though sometimes. Lose of joint tightness is limiting poses and stuff falls off all the time. Not the end of the world. I've picked up some 1/48's for really fair pricing lately. That said, I'm all over the DX thing. I got one Hikaru VF-1J and one Max VF-1A. But I went CRAZY and got four VF-1S Hikaru's and eight S&S parts (in anticipation of the Focker release). One Valk for each mode and I think I'm going to have LEK do his thing one one Hikaru and one Focker. I'm "all in". I do need to get more missile sets though. waiting for a re-issue (fingers crossed). I'm hoping that Bandai does M&M's with Supers. I'm all over that too. Three of each! My holy grail wish is for a VF-1S Focker with S&S parts in 1/35 or larger. Something along the lines of that $1000 Gundam monster they released. If it was big and detailed enough (weathered, panel lined, etc) I would absolutely pay $1000 for one. I'd only get one of those though. I need a bigger office to display all this stuff!
  8. I wish I had a local guy for that!
  9. I got my invoice from NY this morning for the replacement parts. $20.20 for shipping. That could have been worse. The repair kit is both legs.
  10. $38?! So worth it!
  11. Looks fantastic! Who did the weathering?
  12. I'm soooooo getting it! Glad I didn't swing at the new HMR.
  13. You don't need an apartment diorama for that. Just sayin!
  14. I got this sexy lady about a week ago. I picked her up on Mandrake. I was looking for things to add to a order so shipping started making sense. She's a Bandai release. When I got her and opened the flip top box I saw she was naked and I had to put all the armor on, etc. I put it to the side and thought I'd get to it when I felt like fiddling. Tonight I felt like fiddling. She's pretty sweet. I paid under $100 for her. She kinda acts like a Revoltech, but a lot nicer. And bigger. And some of that armor is die cast. Certainly a good addition to the EVA army. I put a pic on of the MB EVA-01 for scale.
  15. Can you have too many Super Robots? I don't believe in the concept.
  16. For sure. These case are going to be a lot more efficient when receive/get all of my YeiStands set up. That shelf with the 31's will probably be able to hold four more when Yeri stands are in play. And there is another cabinet getting delivered this week.
  17. Right!
  18. Ooooo, buddy. That looks sketchy.
  19. Weathering would make me a happy camper. I love me some panel lining and weathering!
  20. Yeah, exactly. I really like the clean spaced out look so you can see each individual toy. But, as you mentioned at some point I'm going to run out of space. I just ordered another one of the big cases this morning. It gets delivered Thursday. That should free me up for a bit. I have room for four Detolf's (2 more) in the office. After that I'm hosed. Hopefully when I'm all filled up it will coincide with a new/bigger house (I work from home). If not, I'll have to rotate. Or start taking over other rooms.
