You buy cameras like we buy Arcadia toys. :o

:lol: Hehe. Photography and Valks are my 2 main addictions, I mean hobbies. :)

Nice toys, Saburo!

Thanks abbadon! Been wanting that lens for while now and the new camera was an impulse purchase because it was a great deal. ;)

New camera again?

Yes, I have been sort of looking for a smaller camera that could use my main camera's lenses. so that could be an everyday carry. I saw that Canon had deal I couldn't pass up. :D I may have a problem. :lol:

Are you planning to catch valks in the wild with that focal range saburo?hehe

hahahaaha!

Now that would be something to photograph. :D

Looks like I flew too close to the sun on wings of pastrami...

Bought a B grade VF-1A from Jungle for a pretty low price. The only issue they told me about aside from the "sunburned" box was the rainbow canopy was starting to crinkle. Not a big deal. I can just remove it if it's a problem.

Just got it today and was very disappointed. First thing I noticed was that the outer hardpoints on both wings were broken off. WTF.

Alright, fine, I can just keep it in battroid and not have anything attached on the wings.

Then I see that one of the lower stabilizers is completely missing. WTF again! That clinched it. This thing is a piece of junk and is only good for spare parts.

Order some hardpoints on shapeway. I've seen it before somewhere. As for the lower stab, sorry about that. Got a spare set of armor parts lying around? Kill 2 birds with one stone.

Sadly, I don't. Oh well. I didn't pay that much for it, so I may find some use for it in the future. Maybe find another junk VF-1 and make 1 good unit...

ask for a refund.

i received a vf from jungle that was rated sealed, when it came it was yellowed, used and the wrong item! i sent them pictures but they weren't convinced it was the incorrect item until i showed them a picture of my whole collection with doubles of the same item.

then they asked me to send it back, covered the returned shipping and refunded me my money.

apparently a few trading in are duping jungle as they don't really check very thoroughly as mandrake (mandrake at times misses a few things but mostly they're spot on and took care any issues if something was missing)

Alright, I'll email them and see what they say. Not hopeful I'll get anything back, but no harm in asking.

Gee that sucks.. sorry to hear of your troubles Lolicon. Yeah will only be good for spare parts, crash scene or battle damage. Or ask for refund. Its quite surprising that this managed to slip through Jungle as they are usually very good at avoiding junk. I guess with the amount of stuff they sell then something a bit more serious was bound to slip through. Hope you get it sorted.

Yea, it is about half an inch shorter. In the picture Spider-man is on a elevated stand and Mark 42 got a wide legs stand going.They scale well together. Are you looking to get the spider-man?

I used to like 2-3 months ago. But lots of preorders and other purchases happened. ;)
