  1. Comparison of 22S this toy (Doyusha VF-22S) and this model (Bandai HG VF-22S). I'm contemplating repainting a fleet of 1/100 or 1/144 Macross fighters in boring real life colours. I think it'd be neat to have a fleet of low viz comprised of all the different fighters, but I'll for sure be limited with either scale. I know there are VF-1 options in both scales, but for 1/100 there are VF100 VF-25s, and for 1/144 there is a VF-11B and a VF-171 model.
  2. totally!
  3. Some custom clothing options for the Roy VF-1S DX
  4. Did you just add a Topcoat to give it the matte finish? It looks 10 x better! I sold my last few ages ago but I might want them back if a topcoat could work on it

    Joy of the hunt?

    In the early 90s (Vancouver, BC, Canada) I remember there was a comic, hobby & toy collectors newspaper that was published from time, and some of the stores would list in super fine print what they had in stock. A store in a neighbouring city (Victoria) had a die-cast destroid monster. Made my day. We also used to drive over the border to Washington state and just hit every Toy's R Us, K-Mart etc... to find toys. The best trips were when the Exosquad/Robotech stuff was out. So stoked to find Battlepods, Khyron's Battlepod and Invid toys.... Good times * I use the Robotech terms as they were Robotech branded. Don't worry, I use Macross, Regult, etc
  6. They owed me $90 for a Figuarts War Machine that I pre-ordered, It came into stock, and was later sold out… but they never sent me one. The customer support ticket conversation was ridiculous. It went on for almost 2 years, but the whole last year, they ceased responding. The funny thing is that they fulfilled another pre-order I had at about the 1 year mark of that other case, but not a word on the Figuarts figure. I’ll just say I’m glad it was only $90, and I chalk it up to the cost of the lesson: “stick with reputable businesses and don’t worry about saving 5%” I feel bad for all of you who got ripped off more heavily than me

    Hi-Metal R

    I wish they made the GBP-1S, but suuuuuper unlikely as we are still waiting for the 4th row 😞, so I had to customize my GBP-1J
  8. Box Art sooo bad....
  9. Thanks for the info! The colors on that one work for me. I may have to try my hand at an expensive custom...
  10. I'm guessing this is old news, or perhaps just someone's custom job, but i took this screen cap from the Tamashi Nations .jp site. It was from the 2020 show, but I couldn't find any info on this. Anyone know the story behind this GBP-1S
  11. Same here, keep resisting going to sleep, just in case it opens up. NY had executed a different gameplay tonight.
  12. Cart jacked NinNin
  13. No scotch tonight. Just some good beer. I have a long drive tomorrow.
  14. Waiting for big brother
  15. Nice
  16. I was able to change my password on HLJ but it only worked when I hit “Forgot Password” instead of “Reset password link” ...for whatever reason. Hopefully the site works well tomorrow night
  17. It is a Besta shelf, but I have the white painted glass doors, so not the best with doors closed... you can only see some shadows on the glass with the lights on.
  18. I don’t have the most extensive collection, but thought I’d share my random collection of hi-metals, DX frontier valks and DX 1s the little IKEA lights help
  19. Maybe I'll wait 6 then.... JK bedtime
  20. Scared to refresh at HLJ too, 22 minutes of "adding" to cart
  21. 17 min of " adding to cart" at HLJ expecting an error message if I ever get further
  22. my HLJ page is stuck on "Adding to cart"
  23. I love this valk so much I had to do one in stealthy-colors
