sh9000 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Ronan and Iron Man MK VII are the only two MCU 10th Anniversary figures I don’t have ordered. I’m seeing if they drop in price. I’ll be getting the Target Hulk and Hulkbuster set when it comes out. I had the Iron Man 3 set preordered a while back at TRU just to own it but it got cancelled. Available in Canada though. Anyone get their X-Men wave 3 figures in yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having one would be like having a Macross collection without a VF-1! Nice! Now you're making me want one too. I know this is the best solid RX-78 figure to collect but I'm still not sold on the overall re-design of it. Guess I have to wait until he finally shows up in the next Gundam The Origins installment. By the way, does this one comes with a stand like the Metal Builds figure? Or it only comes with a platform kind of base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scyla Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 No stand, just a base. Which is probably the most disappointing aspect of that toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They feel kind of like if they were enlarged figures from the 3.75” GI Joe POC line or 3.75” Star Wars TVC line. Marvel Legends should be way cheaper and I’d be happier if the Articulated Icons figures were $19.99 instead. They do come with more accessories, hands, and heads though. The sale made them at least cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can slightly highlight the scar above on his left eye. It's also one of Usagi's trademark as Sakai-san has been doing in his strips. I wish that they can do Tomoe and Gen for the lineup however, I think that Sakai-san has other plans. Edit: Maybe on the katanas as well if you have time.

The order of 3 Ninjas came out to $98.08 shipped. Each figure originally costs $39.50 without the sale so my order was $29.61 less after shipping. If there was a cheaper shipping option to pay for I would have chose it because I didn’t need priority mail shipping. I just checked ebay. There’s a set of 3 that I might try to win but if it ends up too high then nevermind. People have been paying $65-100 for just one figure.

So about $30 each...not great but not bad. The accessories help and so does knowing how much people have paid. I might bite on some of they go on sale again.

Cheapest shipping for 1 figure is $4.66, 2 or 3 figures is $9.19, 4 or 5 figures is $11.80, and 6 or 7 figures is $13.75, etc. I can’t match my 3.75” collection for a lot of figures in 6” scale but I think I need at least a few more Ninjas.

sh9000 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 That custom Macross Plus shirt would have looked much better without the watermarks. I’m not sure why they couldn’t just get a normal pic off the internet to print on the shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apptt4 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 got a Chinese knockoff NECA HL2 Gordon Freeman. didn't even think to check if official and was like omg what a deal lol... had a better look at the item description last night and they don't try to hide it's unofficialness. it's alright tho. seems to match the official pics very closely, only the colour seems less bright. I don't feel the need to seek out on official one but will look closer at the descriptions in future. I have 2 Predator figures on the way I now realise are knockoffs, hopefully I'm as satisfied with them as I am here. either way lesson learnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgified Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Just thought of this now. If the Macross heroine figures continues, they should add May Fong Lone (from Macross +), Milla (DYRL, Macross 7), Mirage [and possibly Miku Miku and Fre Fre] (Delta).

Shizuka the Cat Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Just ordered this from Amazon. Thank you PRIME DAY! I really should not be spending money on more valkyries..... but.... PRIME DAY! Free shipping! Fulfilled by Amazon Listed as being in New condition And these are priced at about 25,000 yen from Mandarake, AmiAmi, and such... P.S. At the time I placed my order, it said there was 1 more left. I was ALMOST tempted to just order both. But that would just be too excessive. Maybe someone here on MWF will pick it up. P.P.S. Hmmm..... maybe this is not actually a PRIME DAY sale, and just a normal price markdown? Not sure.... the VF-19F has been on my Amazon watch list for quite a whiles, and I just ordered it when I saw the price drop today. Well, regardless... I am not going to complain. I am just anxious to receive my shipment on Thursday. Edited July 17, 2018 by Shizuka the Cat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 The Yamato VF-19s don't have the greatest market price as I recall, that said $125 with free shipping for a new one is a pretty darn good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
