  1. I do! It's a extra deep three car with 12' ceilings, one super fast car, mountain bikes and whole lot of tools/equipment. NO LAWN CARE STUFF AT ALL.
  2. I got an extra set of armor just in case I want to do that Roy setup that Bandai displayed. The big problem is the tampo printing. Specifically the stripes. How do you get close to replicating that? From what I understand about @Anasazi37's method for making water slides that would be one heck of a project. If I had water slides to do a Roy it would alreday be in process. the one Bandai showed is awesome. A bunch of non cannon GBP's would be fun. Stealth, Low Vis, Camo, etc. But man, the cost of all of the valks, armor and custom work needed would be pretty impressive.
  3. Where do you keep all of this stuff? For fun I tracked your purchases over a 30 day period and it was somewhere around 100 figures like above and 120 "Matchbox" type cars (plus other random stuff). What do you do with all of that stuff? If you extrapolate that out to multiple years that is a lot of cubic feet of toys. Do you display them? Do they sit in boxes? How big is your house?!?! In my head I imagine you have a basement that looks like a Toys R Us with rows of retail displays packed with stuff.
  4. From my perspective I think the OG 1J should see a market value drop. Heck, you can get the 1J/GBP set for the same price! But, I don't care about things being first release, coming with special stand I won't use anyway, rare, etc. To a lot of people that sort of stuff matters. If I was smart (and had the time) I would sell my four OG VF-1J's and use that money to buy VF-1J/GBP sets......and effectively have four free sets of GBP armor. What I would do with them I have no idea.
  5. I was going to say something funny here. But some Woke-a-Nazi with zero sense of humor would have lost their mind. Yeah, me too. The Trans Am was named after the Trans American racing series. It would be interesting if intentionally or not intentionally it was derived from American car culture. It's not like Japan doesn't have its own strong car culture. Maybe someone in Gundam creation inc just likes Trans Am's.
  6. The Titan is one of my favorite "toys". I've posed it more than everything else I have combined and it's taken more than a few headers off the shelf with no damage. It's just plain fun. And looks cool.
  7. This ticks me off. They said that they weren't going to make these so I didn't get the VF-1S. Now it's too late.
  8. Less powerful to me is 800hp. My problem is that I have been around really fast cars and motorcycles my entire life. My perceptions are all screwed up. If it's not trying to kill me........it's too slow. I wish I were more mature.........HaHa, not really!
  9. That's the top of a Detolf. I could maybe hit it with my head....if I tried to. It's going in one of my big cases soon. I have another coming and a "big move" going on as far as displays go in the next few weeks.
  10. Very true, And I think they do an Optimus Prime about that big so it's possible.
  11. Short of Destroids and enemy mech I don't see ThreeZero doing anything that I myself am going to want unless they step way outside of the box the operate in now. I guess we'll see.
  12. Good luck with that! I absolutely love my cabinets. They were pretty stupid money before COVID. Now they're just plain silly. If I had to start from scratch and took everything into consideration. Size, flexibility, lighting, ability to customize, etc I would absolutely go Moducase. Keep in mind they can do custom sizes for you. That's a HUGE advantage if you need it. Most of their stuff is too deep to effectively display/maximize wall space for Macross stuff. Not all though. And they do have the custom option. Their lighting options are really what sells me. There is no way you can do something that clean, invisible and tied together yourself unless you're actually building the cases. Moducase has the best size/quality/flexibility/lighting factor of anything out there by a pretty big margin. I've gone full nerd and done the cost per usable cubic inch of display/$$ calculation on just about everything out there. Their Sixth series stuff has the best depth IMO. https://us.moducase.xyz/sixth-series/

    Hi-Metal R

    You spelled poppycock wrong.
  14. I have to objectively agree. The best DX 1/48 so far. And will probably not be out done. I do love my Roy's though. Nostalgia.
  15. Perfect Grade Perfect Strike. This thing is nuts. Sooooooooo much stuff going on. Very cool mode. Fiddly and very fragile though. And HUGE. Posed like this it’s 21” tall, 15.5” wide and 13.5” deep. I need to do some serious moving around so to get it in a case with good lighting. I feel horrible having it out in the “atmosphere”. It’s too nice. Sorry for the crappy lit pics. It needs light to see all the paint details. I don’t have anything with enough light that is big enough right now. And I’m worn out from putting this thing together and posing it.
