overall, my revy 1j is in pretty good shape. so far, the only real flaw is the hole on the back of the nosecone for the display peg to fit into is rather small, and the peg does not stay in at all.
the vf-1s is fine though...not a problem at all.
there is no way in hell id pay $300 for a non transforming vf-1. The lack of details dont bother me since i know its not a high quality toy.
I just want a 1/24 vf-1 on my shelf.
the only way i can imagine Yamato not re-releasing this is if they are towards the end of their Macross contract and moving on to another big anime license.
the chances of this though...slim to none.
i used to be the guy that had to get all the new Macross/TF's right when they came out...so i was dealing with a bunch of overseas sellers and spending literally hundreds in shipping costs. Now, i dont mind getting my stuff 3 or 4 weeks after release from a US seller. I usually go through BBTS and the shipping charges are 1/3 of what i paid when using HJL. its nice having a somewhat local dealer. BBTS is westcoast and im on the eastcoast, but the shipping wait is about 4 days.
in your fan fic, you should keep minmei dead if misa is dead as well. that just gives hikaru more rage to go all out, and gives him that "F*** It", ive got nothing left, im taking everything out with me" mentality.
then again, its your fan fic...
holy crap! Promethium5...that is fantastic work! Outstanding custom. I wish there was an official kit like this so i could buy one for my self.
job well done!
i understand that. Sal is great if you dont have the money, which often times I do not...because im spending it all on the toys that are being shipped.
if its something small that you can wait for, and like being surprised...Sal is the way to go.
