  1. I was thinking a special temperature-sensitive heat shield that changes from black to red on if it is hot or cold, but sold for ¥9000
  2. Got me A-E notification on missiles too. Probably going to have them sit on them for me for a short time until I find something to share that shipment with.
  3. They shouldn't be, since they've been tracking about a 9-10% death rate and spiked on new cases recently. We're at least very slowly trending downwards on new cases and holding at a 5% death rate.
  4. Agreed. When the site first came online I participated there pretty heavily. I do have some fond memories of some of the crazy arguments there, not to mention it was the first place I was introduced to @jenius's anymoon.com reviews.
  5. Just recently picked this 1/35 up.
  6. Jungle let me lump some things I ordered later into my pile of things sitting and waiting; they said they don't normally allow it but given the situation, they reduced the shipping cost. So now I have a Bandai reissue 1/55 Skull leader with Super parts, 2 Hi Metal R CFs, and now a Yamato Low Vis 1/48 1A waiting. I'm not in a rush to get them yet, since I got great prices.
  7. I'm excited that Sentinel said June 2020 and it might actually release on time!
  8. I want the Houquet ride armor first.
  9. Oh man- that means my timing will probably coincide with a bunch of other things I've ordered finally getting shipped as well. I keep telling my wife I didn't order this stuff all at the same time. Also, I think I need to build another shelf to make more room.

    Hi-Metal R

    You can still find some for a decent price off and on- and it is definitely worth buying even as a single piece without any other HMRs. It is such a solid toy that I love pulling it down and playing with it.
  11. I am similar except my stealth 1J has SSP and then I have another stealth 1J in Urban Camo GBP. And now I eventually have a low vis 1A coming.
  12. Big thanks to @sqidd who just happened to spot a good-priced one while we were chatting here. You rock! For those looking for the 1/60 low vis Roy, I'll keep an eye out myself (or note if I ever decide to give up mine).
  13. I'm definitely keeping an eye out. Given my 1/48s are two stealth and a Anniversary in black and gold, the Low Vis will fit in with my aesthetics. (And my 1/60 low vis skull leader).
  14. I could maybe talk myself into $350, but the prices I'm finding are $450 right now.
  15. I feel the same way about the 1/48 low vis 1A. I can grab one right now but I'm not willing to fork out that much. Yet.
  16. Not sure- I went to the Anime/Sci Fi area and couldn't find it and got concerned, only to find it here.
  17. Haven't bought any of the new Battlestar bits (though I've been tempted by the fighter combat game pieces). But I do have some stuff from TOS and from when TNS came out:
  18. It must be the time for Takatoku GBP armor, because I just picked some up for my Jetfire 1S:
  19. I have to agree with Seto, especially since I'm rewatching MS Gundam right now: if you aren't seeing the anti-war message, it's amazing that you are missing it because it is pratically screaming it at you. I'm still in the first third of the original series and I've already had: - the mother go out with her young son to get back to her husband's town he grew up in, only to find the town has been wiped from the face of the earth. A Zeon pilot flies out of his way to find her and drops supplies to her, only to get shot down by Amaro. The mother even comes out and says "War takes husbands from wives and fathers from children" - Garma's fiance does anything she can to get revenge against the Federation for killing Garma, not knowing Char had as much to do with it as any of the Federation soldiers. I could also go on and on about how the Zeon are initially painted as the bad guys, but then it throws at you the number of problems and later atrocities the Federation commits as well. If all you see are the cool giant robots fighting, you are missing most of the story. The later series keep making this more and more obvious.
  20. Or like he's about to execute a fusion fuel dump.

    Hi-Metal R

    I was able to get the parts from my Hi Metal Fokker 1S to go on the Mesmer Hi Metal R, so I didn't see any issue. I don't remember if I used the Fokker fighter mode connector for the stand or not.

    Hi-Metal R

    I have both the v1 and v2 VF-1D and I keep telling myself to sell the v1 one, but talk myself out of it. I also have the v1 Hikaru that I'd display in fighter mode but I grabbed GBP for it and so I'd have to take that off or put it on the 1D instead.
  23. OK, I'm dying. Also, excellent use of Beetlejuice.
