Macross Frontier should have a decent amount of episodes by then too, we can watch that there.

Lots of cool stuff to see. Even with just Yamato's new toys coming out we should have a ton of stuff to display. I hope the 1/60 VF-1s will be out by then.

And if they are not out , maybe they could send someone to the con with protos...

how would that be for recognition MW deserves??

Thats gotta be one of the nicest 1s heads i've seen,.looks serious...

That shoulder joint peg looks kinds thin though, hope that isn't a problem area.

I hope those intake covers open/can be removed. DOES IT HAVE TURBINES?

The one on the gunside looks like it is not too secure.

Gimmick guess:

Rolling wheels?

I have to say, I'm digging the cover art for Ace Combat Zero.

Hey, if you guys can't wait to start shooting things down, may I reccomend a little game called Rebel Raiders: Operation Nighthawk? (Ignore the deceptive name... there are no Nighthawks, or any other real planes in the game, although your starting plane kinda reminds me of a VF-0.) The game really doesn't resemble Ace Combat... all the planes are fictional, and the controls are of a more arcadey nature. On the flip side, though, it's suprisingly fun for a budget game. It's the kinda game where you fly around and spam missiles at waves of enemy planes until you win. Or fight a boss. If this game was $50, hell, if this game was $30, I'd say it sucks and call it a day. But for $20, it's a fun little time waster.

I just got this game for like $8, if you don't have it check it out, it is sick. the weapons are crazy, aerial shot gun, missiles that you can launch and lockon after, so yo can have them in the air before you get behind your opponent, they change direction like crazy, almost like in Macross. Even a cluster 6 missile type attack.

I love the aerial nuke bombs the fighters have. launch then press the button again and then it blows, area denial weapon.

OH YEAH THE ENEMIES PLANES I SWEAR ARE THE YF-19,, same in every way as far as i can tell.

Some one get this game and tell me if i am wrong.

One of the fighters you can pilot even looks like the vf-25!!! but then that looks like a SU.

Yeah yous..i wasnt sure if it was you or JaC....i didn't taste it but it looked sooo cool..

Who me?

If you need references, you can contact JasonC, here on the boards. I did his wedding cake this summer.

I thk only one pilot per kit?

Weapon set

Ahh wheres our local pastry cake chef??the guy that made the cake for MWCON 05?

Well I think we can all agree you need a giant SDF-1 cake.

Yeah chief any word, it's killing me to keep up on topics..

if it wasn't for "my assistant " I would be soooo lost...

YOU ROCK !!!! thanks !!!

All parts present as far as i can tell...

$15 shipped......great deal ...but felt like car with no keys...untill TSP!! THANKS again brutha.

The pic in the auction was of closed box.

The title said MIB

The description said sealed bags..

This is his reply to my last email after I asked for a couple bucks off to make scans and print copies of instructions:

"Look either keep the item or ship it back, the whole thing was one a few dollars. shipping cost more than the kit, and it was actual shipping cost. I really thought someone would just buy it for the graphics on the box, not relaly build it. So, Keep it or return it for a refund.

Thanks"

I tried but he dont seem to give an S,,neg it is,,,

His reply when I pushed issue and asked if he ever seen the instructions and if he can look around for them.

"Dont know where the instructions went to, saw them in the box before I shipped, in Japanese, no pics on either. Ship it back."

No pics huh???

His ID is twilightsuzuko, ask a lot of questions and save emails when dealing with this guy...

Speaking of patterns , is this a pattern or just weathering???F15

Hey guys I bought a variable Orguss off Ebay, seller claimed it was MIB sealed bags, but when i received it it was opened and instructions not n box.

So if anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated. I really want to build this but the variable nature makes it a bit unnerving without instructions..

thanks

HELP!!!

Hey guys I just got a variable Orguss of Ebay, the auction said MIB in sealed bags and when I got it their were open bags, parts off sprues, cockpit/pilot glued together. Since this was gonna be a builder that part doesn't mater so much. BUT it did'nt come with the instructions either.

I am prty right now, but if I can get instructions from someone....I can at least get it built. and at least it has the metal parts.

any advise how I should convey my anger to the seller????

str8 - feedback??

TITLE in auction-

Macross Robotech vintage MIB model kit Orguss transform

Desrcription in auction-

This is a vintage model kit of Orguss. It is a transforming model kit. Parts are still sealed in plastic. Box is in good shape. Nice Artwork.

SHEE WHAAAT?? DTB!DTB...j/k

that sucks man..reminds me of when I was a kid , if we didn't pick up our GI Joe weapons before the vac. came, my mom would just vac them up, and tell us "tuff S', shouldn't leave you stuff laying around"..

so then me and my brother moved our Joes outside and end up loosing whole figures to the sand box...

I soo got burned on ebay a couple years back when i bought this....I thought it was a carded JM..it was morpher....

I keep it as a reminder to ask ?'s and ask for pics when in doubt.

Actually in fighter mode they are not THAT bad, kinda neat in an SD way. Low profile , sleeker than a JM, only wish the arms could stow away not just fold back.

but like everyone says the battroid mode is hid-E-ous ,

They have the legs of those bodybuilders at my gym that only work chest and biceps. Twig bird legs. Gross.

This thing is really deformed.

Hope you got a good deal on these.

Haaa I emailed the seller (Ebay) regarding more pics of box and cond. of box, this was the reply:

Hi,

Attached are 2 pics of the box. I took the listing off

since people seem to be overly concerned about the

condition of the box. I don't want to deal with those

people - they're never happy. I have to say that if

box condition is very important, then this is probably

not for you. This is a model kit for model builders,

not collectors.

Thank you for your interest.

So not the one for me i guess,oh well.

but a guy can dream...

yeah i figured as much as soon as i posted.

I guess i'll just have to wait till i see another on Ebay..

RPG???

Looks great man! The guy in the white shirt doesn't look like he's feeling too good ! Keep it up! - MT

Yeah he's like "why today?? why do they have to attack today?? I should have never went out with Major Foker last night..."

Nice job on the figs...

Obviously your income from your job(s), but what other methods?

Hmmmm.....but then again, your collection is an investment. Just ask the people who have a 1st edition Low Viz like me I'd rather collect TFs and Valks (assuming you can sell the damn things in the future) than CDs, Stocks, Money Market, or Bonds any day. At least you can transform the toy, right?

Yeah but will you ever sell it, maybe if you had two.

If i had one and only one i dont think i could/would ever sell it...well maybe for a ridiculous amount.

One way I get additional cash for misc. expenditures is by recycling the tons of soda cans and plastic pop/water bottles our house churns out. We were literally just throwing money away each month until we decided to recycle.

We used to throw our recy. in the containers provided by the city, now we just collect it for a couple months, throw it in the pick up, go to the recy center, then go anime shopping.

I'll do $35 shipped if someone can bid for me...... Box looks crisp.

There is one on Yahoo Japan Auction starting at JPY2,850.

Hey grayson72- what are you using for backdrop in those photos?? i like the little polygons..is it plastic?

Miriya do you have this kit?

I bought it just for the box art..but it isn't in the best shape(so i am looking for a better one). ..

i do love that box art and DYRL space suits.

i think the sculpt on the hair is kinda off. makes her head look so huge.

eBay has changed how bid history information is displayed for higher-priced items. To help keep the eBay community safe, enhance bidder privacy, and protect our members from fraudulent emails, only you and the seller of the item can view your User ID in bid history. Other members will see anonymous names.

I guess i didn't see that part,,but I have never seen them asign the ** to partial names, I have only seen bidder #1 ,#2,etc. That was the weird part to me..can't they just block emails to the bidders if thats what they are worried about. Why block ID's

By not knowing anything about other bidders doesn' t that increase our chances of getting ripped off?

Cannot even see if those (0) are from same area as seller which may indicate shill.

Anyone come up with a good rationale?

Hey guys I was checking the value of this recorder i have and came across this auction....see anything weird about bidders?? Can that possibly be legit??DPS16

Check my sig, I got 1/55 strike parts..and jetfire boosters for sale.

I have one of the 1/72 Bandai VF-1J's also. They're not too bad, but posing could be problematic at times. They're not that sturdy for poses. But if left in jet mode, they look good enough.

Can we see Gervalk/valk mode? Just curious what it looks like with c/pit piece.

Nice build, i have the Revell Robotech Changers kits and was thinking about building it soon...

THESE are similar right guys??

The Miria kit on the Changers box is painted a nice color of dark red..i might do somthing like that and maybe use that gray for light areas..
