    Hmmm not too many Macross items come in a large cube shaped box like that...

    Thanks @Saburo! It's just one of those things one must do to shore up Bandai's lack of care. LA Gear! I haven't heard that spoken of since before Macross II was a thing! The fact that I know what that is makes me feel old...

    Got another Roy from HLJ's inexplicable restock a few weeks back. Couldn't pass up getting another at MSRP.

    Hey thanks! Though I'm still perplexed why 29 Alto has white boots and gloves when they're properly painted on the figure that comes with the 25.

    Like all Bandai add-on parts, the addition of super or armor parts makes the toy less solid & secure. This applies to the 25, 27, 31, and DX VF-1. I guess the only exception would be the 29, but those are little more than a few bits attached to the wings.

    Domestic shipping in Japan is cheap. It's the international shipping that's murder.

    Been a bit busy as of late, but had some time this weekend to get back to the YF-29 grind. First order of business: touching up the terrible pilot figure. Hand painting is hardly my strong suit, and the molding of the pilot is pretty bad, but I did what I could to make it actually look like Alto from the anime. Stock pilot from first YF-29 release vs touched up YF-29 reissue pilot (Bandai used a darker shade of white plastic on the reissue)

    Yep. I'm kinda glad that I got the GBP combo pack because one of my 1Js only came with one hand. When I contacted HLJ and they went to inquire about a replacement hand, they told me that Bandai instead had given them the finger. Given Bandai's RNG-level of quality, it's pretty bonkers that they don't offer replacement parts at all.

    Absolutely amazing work on the VF-X! So very jealous because it's one of the only valks I'm missing that I really want! He could always make multiple accounts and give himself a bunch of likes. But that would be a rather sad and pathetic thing to do, so best not to.

    Show-off!

    I always have to use my phone for HLJ because it constantly screws up if I try to check out on my computer.

    Was gonna skip to get some sleep, but I woke up to use the bathroom, looked at the time, hopped on here then to HLJ and picked one up. This one's for a friend who really wants the armor.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    Lolicon replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    They're trying to sell mecha toys for a show where they barely got any screen time. Keep pushing the idol groups, Bandai. Because if there's one thing the world needs it's more idol group shows!

    Ah I see they're all modeling this season's hottest new crotch plates.

    Shipping costs have gone up during the pandemic, though $74 is a bit steep. I wonder if they're using the same size box as they do for valkyries, since they're the same width. I imagine Fedex is like DHL where the size of the package (preemptive "teehee" for @sqidd) drives the cost up more than the weight. There's always the possibility they're simply gouging on shipping and pocketing the difference, like a certain retailer that shall not be named, though I think that's unlikely.

    Oh it looks like it does! Sweet! Just the armor set for me then, since I already have 3x VF-1Js
  17. Lolicon
    I want the bundle so I can get the grey visor 1J. But general release sucks. At least the armor by itself is easy enough to get.
  18. Lolicon
    Nice! They looked so good for a second I thought they were the Bandai DX versions. Excellent work!
  19. Lolicon
    Two of my favorite things together!
  20. Lolicon
    Damn! That looks amazing! And I see you added the missing modex on the wing.

    Sweet shot of Ozma and his armor! And I really like the dino lol
  23. Lolicon
    Now those are some cool VF-1A pics!
  24. Lolicon
    Fantastic shot! Excellent lighting and composition, as usual.
  25. Lolicon
    Oh yeah, got mine last Tuesday. Thanks @Anasazi37! Now I just need to find the time to apply them...
