SCOOPUDA! Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 It is my pleasure to bring to MacrossWorld a random oddity from the depths of some Japanese guy's basement. Yes, it's the legendary Macross Zentradi Stamp Kit, by Nichimo. I had never seen one in person, never saw a review or anything, struggled to find any data on it for decades, so I figured it deserved its own epic story, complete with a beginning, middle and end. So, on a rainy day in the Asakusabashi district of Tokyo, three MW guys -- Save, Bariaburu Faita and myself -- sat down and made some history. Or at least recorded a video. In Part One, we talk about the background of the item and our personal search which took us halfway around the world. Â Browse the original archived MW Nichimo page here Stay tuned for Part Two, coming to a net-equipped device near you soon! Read the full story here

Benson13 Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 Its always interesting to hear the stories of how one hunts down a collectible or how they gradually build their collection. Keep these stories coming guys.
