    Good heads up. Thank you.

    Thanks! I feel like a struck gold! The lights are going to be tricky. Thanks for the suggestion. I have a feeling I'll go through a couple of setups before I'm happy. Pretty much sums up my entire life.

    Very nice. Thank you. I need to figure all of this out. I'm at the shipping section. What is the ideal choice? DHL, EMS? If I get multiple items will it amortize the cost of shipping better?

    I'm a die hard Focker fan (the look, not necessarily the character). Focker all the things! I just looked into getting a HMR Focker with S&S parts. I'm seeing them for $300-350 on feeBay. Damn near twice what a Hikaru VF-1A w/ S&S parts is going for. Or the M&M's w/ S&S parts. Why so much for the Focker? Is there a better source? Did they not make many of them or something? Thanks guys

    Well, the madness has begun! 9-10yrs ago I sold off my meager collection (among other things) to help finance a business startup. The business is doing pretty good. A few days ago I decided that I wanted to get back into the toys (not just Macross). I've been on a bit of a tear picking stuff up. Which means I need some place to put all of it. I wasn't super stoked about the IKEA stuff. Or the few cabinets I saw on feeBay. None of them would "Tetris" into my space very well. The new/commercial stuff was ether crazy pricing, or it wouldn't work (most was rear loaded). I poked around on FB and found these locally. The two bigger cabinets are 36" wide and the smaller one is 25". 5300sq in of shelf space! They all have bases with either cupboards or drawers. They're about 7' tall when combined. They're a brass lineament. I need to get some shelves made (only two unbroken). I need to wire in some better lights. I'm not quite sure what to do here. Do certain type of lights degrade the toys faster (stay away from those!)? They need some cleaning up. I can't believe I got them for.................................$400.

    Ah, gotcha. I have some Valk stuff on pre order there. I should have put two and two together. Thanks

    What is the "NY" you guys are referring to? Is it New York like the city? Or a online retailer or something? Attempting to learn some things.

    Bit the bullet and just bought one. I sure hops this is the one you guys are all talking about. I think it is.

    Please forgive me. I went through that link and I can't find what I'm looking for. Also used the search function and all I'm getting are "custom" valks. I haven't seen anything on who could do the work. Maybe my search-fu just sucks.

    Good call. I did some searching around on Google and found a list of what should be watched in what order. Time to get to work!

    True story^^^^^

    Yeah, that's a nice unit. I picked up a few of the "lower class" Focker's with S&S parts over the last few days. Yamato 1/48, Arcadia 1/60, New Kitz 1/72. Looking forward to a 1/48 DX release. Hopefully I can get in on a pre-order.

    I REALLY dig the Bandai. I LOVE the look. I wish it was a bit bigger though. Even if I had to pay for it. I'll probably get the Bandai. Thanks for you input guys.
  16. sqidd
    They're no longer available at Nippon-Yasan. Probably just saved me from myself.

    What are the top three quintessential/the one to have EVA-01 toys in order?
  18. sqidd
    I must have clicked the wrong link. Sorry and thanks.
  19. sqidd
    Do you guys know how tall this is?
  20. sqidd
    I never saw the show until recently when it came out on Netflix. I love it. I really dig the EVA-01 styling too. So naturally I went looking for toys. I came across the Bandai Metal Build "pre order". And a Bandai Metal Build "Test Type" that seems to be available now. To my untrained eye they look like the same figure? Are they? Are they both the same size? I'm seeing reference to them being 220mm (8.66") tall. Any tips on this guy? Reviews seem good. It's kinda not big though. I'll probably only get one of these (famous last words) so I want to do this right. Any input form you experts? After that scroll down below for the next bit please. Then there is the Medicom guy who is 390mm (15.7"). Oh man, this dude is a BEAST! I love the size. It doesn't look quite as trick as the Bandai one though. Keep scrolling please, more questions below...... Are there any other ones I should be looking at? These two seem like the top dogs. Thanks guys!

    I don't want to deal with that! Thanks guys!

    Ahhh, so the combo pack I'm seeing for cheap is a Ver 1? I guess that's why it's so cheap. Thanks!
  23. sqidd
    I'm not seeing anything on Anymoon Why Are these so inexpensive? Is there are a reason to stay away from these? Thanks!
  24. sqidd
    I just put my Pre-Order in.

    Thanks!
