  1. Going to get some strikes ... Hard to find them in Sg. Anyone here knows exactly how HLJ shipping cost is like? I mean by size, by weight or ...? My friend says that shipping from Japan is effected by both size and weight ... How can we figure out what is the optium size/ weight ratio? Anyone?

    Maybe you can find some helpful information here

  2. Your choices are strange... Are you just asking from an exclusivity perspective?

    yes, seems like some members don't agree with yamato and bandai due they overproduce some items, just like CF. I think this is great because many of us have the opportunity to own more of each. Additionally they are the starting point to be a macross toy collectorr (like me :p )

    In the other hand when there is a new limited edition, many of us put an excessive attention to it. I really love my lowviz, but not because there are few of them out there, but because I like it by itself. Anyway when it was announced as a limited edition many people asked how low were the run and seems happy as much as the figure downs.

    My roots in collecting toys was with starwars. I really loved to get every SW related toy in the market but I got dessapointed when some of them were virtually impossible to get/buy, not just because they were "vintage" but due to this "suppossed" low production. (fan collector exclusives, wallmart exclusives, TRU exclusives, theatre opening exclusives, convention exclusives, etc, etc)

    I tried to move my hobby to McFarlane lines (they have done a great job with Spawn toys), but I found a similar situation... additional to stupid figure/card variants, BTW. :blink:

    I guess I supported the educational future of several seller's kids in the past and I dont like to repeat this story.

    Sorry, sometimes its difficult to me express correctly an idea, more when you are writting in a non-native language with few neurons working :p

  3. Sorry if this question has been asked before .... Anyway I think it would be interesting to know our opinion about it.

    Almost everyone would like to get at least one of every LE toy (Low viz ,for example :rolleyes: ) but due to its condition they are very rare and difficut to get. Also if you cand find it, is almost sure you will have to pay a lot more that their suggested price. :(

    Yamato/bandai CF are very easy to get and sometimes with a discount! <_< Should be this for every toy/line the right way?

  4. Hey! Watch what I found!

    Seems it was going to be a very massive figure. :o

    I hope Fewture doesnt cancel this line.... Not just because I want to get the rest of the robots, but cause they had to contain the rest of parts to create the Scrander :angry::angry::angry:

  5. It depends of the valk

    I prefer gerwalk 'cause is the middle point in the transformation (half fighter, half battroid). I think is the most representative mode in a valk too. Yo can find a lot of toys in "fighter" and "battroid" mode (or the equivalent :p )but only macross toys in gerwalk :lol:

    Vf-11B looks better in fighter mode IMHO

  6. They've already made a toy of this guy under the "Soul of Chogokin" line.

    Compete with a stand, extra hands, and head :D.

    Yes, I already have both normal and black color. I think they are great.

    Im looking forward the fewture version. They do a great job with mazinger and Aphrodai and I'm sure they do the same with bossborot

  7. *GASP* did you say voltes V?!?!?!? Is this for real?? Or what is it suppose to be? The yen on the voltes V looks to be too cheap to be on the SOC line. Can you give us some more details on that piece!! OMG I'm still going to buy it anyway!! Finally! :p:D:lol:

    Just remember that "Soul of Chogokin" and "The Chogokin" are VERY, VERY different lines. B))

  8. The Alternators are a new product so Hasbro can't work the nostalgia/collectors edition factor like they can with the reissues, so $20 - $25 sounds just about right.

    I don't think so... maybe the nostalgia factor is not valid here but every collector knows the first product from a succesful new line will cost much more in some years. :( They will prefer to get it now.

  9. Anyway, I'll try to get some photos taken during the weekend.

    I'm almost sure you enjoy doing this, you little insane smile040.gif

    Well... hope "weekend" means "as soon as friday is over" :p
