  1. Some gerwalk and regular fighter pics. Will finish the rest after my camera battery recharges.
  2. Beautiful! I'm with @wm cheng on this. Your earlier works were already stunning, but you've taken it to another level since!
  3. Put Kakizaki back together after sitting in pieces for weeks. Oh how I dream of the day when I have the entire DYRL squadron decaled and detailed finally.
  4. Oooo looking forward to seeing it!
  5. Wow! I'm not really a fan of Jetfire, but that one looks pretty cool.
  6. Amazing work as always @MacrossJunkie! Man I wish I had half your level of skill! I'd love to see you make the 0A look like that!
  7. Coming along nicely! Are you installing lights in it?
  8. Indeed. For DHL the size of the box increases the price of shipping a lot more than the weight.
  9. Probably the rate hikes are straight from DHL. Even Amazon shipping has gone up quite a bit since the pandemic started.
  10. Whoa that sucks. Sorry to hear about that. Just now hearing about CC going under. Glad people were at least able to get a refund, despite getting shafted on the conversion. You can always set up Mandarake alerts for the Aoshima Enterprise that pops up from time to time. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1086479367&ref=list&keyword=aoshima enterprise She's a fantastic display piece for the price.
  11. Recent arrivals. Love the Japanese Spider-man TV show and got another Super Ostrich. Yay!
  12. The YF-30 is a lovely bird and I actually like it more than the VF-31. But the 31 does have a slightly easier transformation, thanks to lessons learned from the 30.
  13. Because Bandai "half-assed" the SSPs when they could easily have given us something at least on par with Yamato, if not better. Whether or not one cares about the inner details is irrelevant to that point and certainly not something one should be high-roading others on.

    Hi-Metal R

    If there is a TV Kakizaki it'll most likely be a web exclusive. If they release a TV Max they better damn well release a TV Queadluun Rau to go with it!
  15. All TV valks have the UN Spacy kite. The skull insignia FPs are DYRL only.

    I got mine. I filed a dispute because NY never shipped it, got my money back, and then bought it off AJ shipped for less than NY.

    Macross figures

    I bought the Sheryl figure. It'll probably remain boxed for the foreseeable future as I simply have no place to put it at this time.
  18. The DX is a fantastic toy, no doubt. And Yamato has been out of business for years now, so that's not an option for most people who want a VF-1 anyway, unless they want to scrounge the aftermarket for whatever Yamatos are still out there which will end up costing as much if not more than the Bandai DX. For peeps like me who already had a sizable Yamato collection before the DX: Bandai's offering is only an incremental improvement over what we already had, with some steps backward. It wasn't the gigantic leap forward like going from the chunky monkeys to Yamato. Still a great toy and I've bought all of them so far, but I'm still holding on to my Yamatos. Also, my Yamato VF-1s are in scale with all my other valks. For everyone else: the DX is a great toy and really the only game in town, aside from the occasional Arcadia reissue. It's worth the purchase. Just avoid the scalpers.
  19. It does some things better but also does some things worse. To me it's a wash, considering what a PITA it is to even get a DX, much less track down the SSP and missile sets if you didn't order a bunch during the PO period, I would hardly go so far as to say it blows anything but itself, as Bandai seems to be its own worst enemy.
  20. Which of you bastards snagged this lovely Super Ostrich? https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1149237140&ref=list&keyword=マクロス
  21. So Bandai botched up the simple task of having a removable cover? Something Yamato has had on their SSPs for over 15 years? Nothing but the best at Bandai! They sure did. Addendum: Wasn't sure where to put this, but there's a Yamato 1/60 DYRL Kakizaki for sale on Mandarake right now, for those who missed out on the DX and want something in scale with all your other valks anyway, or really need to finish that 1/60 DYRL squadron. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1149237855&ref=list&keyword=マクロス
  22. If anyone is still looking for the new SOC Leopardon, it's on AJ for 16k (tax included so around 14500 when you checkout). https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/gp/product/B0868P5F41/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  23. Finally got my Endgame Captain Marvel. Looks so much better than the first Captain Marvel figure. The energy thingies for the thighs fall off at the slightest touch and the blue boxing gloves look kinda dumb, so I won't be using those.
