    Hi-Metal R

    The undersized pilots are a real eyesore. Makes the VF-1 look like some hideously gigantic machine that belongs in the Gundam universe rather than a compact aircraft that's smaller than the real world F-14.
  2. I wish they would reissue the premium finish versions of Roy and Hikaru instead. Or better yet just make everything "premium finish" and not split their own tiny market.

    Yes, it's always best to pay in yen with a CC that doesn't charge any foreign transaction fees. Those transaction fees really add up when you buy a lot of stuff from Japan!
  4. I had forgotten that Delta introduced add-ons for the add-ons.
  5. Chugging along and getting valks back up one by one when I have time. (Gonna need to repaint my badly yellowed TV SDF-1 unless Bandai releases theirs...) I know some prefer the TV livery for our heroes while others prefer the movie versions. TV heroes Movie heroes
  6. Thanks! Finally got the cases done. Took a while longer than I expected as, once again, there were no instructions and I had to watch some Youtube videos and go through a bit of trial and error to get everything just right. Next set should come together much faster. Finally my valks will have a proper home!
  7. Fixed.
  8. Finished the main assembly on my moducases. Still need to wire up all the LED lights. I'll get to that over the weekend. Assembly wasn't too bad, though there were a couple of parts where the holes were not properly sized (poor QC) and I had to drill larger holes through the metal. That's always fun. A couple of the shelf boards were also slightly warped and bent upwards slightly, so I've placed some weights on them to eventually flatten them out. Will probably get another set of 8 as these definitely will not fight all my 1/60 valks even though there's a ton of space. 1/48 Kakizaki for scale.
  9. Nothing manlier than a purple flight suit!
  10. Do the flightpose stands still have issues with paint rub?
  11. Oh wow that looks pretty good. Just need to do a panel wash and you've got your own premium finish edition!
  12. Bandai been teasing this forever. They're not going to fix anything, so where's the preorder button already?
  13. Oh man is Moehime run by the same people as NY? If so, I'm definitely not going to order anything from them, ever.
  14. Damn that looks sooooo good! Easily on par with the Arcadia version, if not better!
  15. Made my last payment in Dec 2022 and finally delivered Sept 2023. It's gonna be a multi day effort to assemble them and then set up all my many valks. Yeah it was a long wait. One reviewer on Youtube said he waited a year and a half. So I guess 9 months isn't too bad by comparison. I'll probably have to pick up some more because I don't think there's enough space in what I've purchased for more valks.
  16. Ah a spamburger lover I see.
  17. I think I'll make some spam fried rice and watch Macross Zero later.
  18. Your VF-0S and YF-19 look great!
  19. Moducases finally arrived. They didn't come with any instructions so it took a bit to figure out how to assemble them. 1/4 of the way through...
  20. Awesome! Dammit Bandai where's that TV SDF-1 you teased?
  21. Never hurts to experiment a bit. It's a much more creative process than just copying poses from the TV show. 😁

    The only reason I'm even entertaining getting them is because of the yen being at it's lowest in like 40 years. If we were back at around 100 or 110 yen to the dollar (or worse), it would be a hard pass for me. Who knows that the exchange rate will be by next summer.
  23. I really regret not getting multiples of the PF 0D. Curse my penny pinching ways!
