It must be the time for Takatoku GBP armor, because I just picked some up for my Jetfire 1S:

Nice! I’ve been anti-GBP for awhile, because they’re so bulky. But, I picked up the Arcadia 1J reissue and then found this armor for a great price from an original owner. Couldn’t pass it up. And it wound up fitting perfect on my 2001 1J reissue. I’ve heard it doesn’t fit the 2008 reissue.

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:

So many good toys & collectibles being posted here. One of these days I will get all three of the Gakken Legioss toys, old school at its best IMO. B))

I definitely need to a Base Star or two, my Galactica & Pegasus (Moebius kits) have no one to battle with yet. 

@sqidd Taking the plunge on some BSG ships, nice!!

Got this last week from Manda Nagoya via EMS with a slight glitch to Canada via EMS.

Was sitting on the floor on the 17th of last month, got to Vancouver's Canada Post depot on the 23rd, sent to CBSA and got hit with $41.15 in Custom Fees.  Re-routed to a nearly postal outlet and stashed it in the trunk of my car until yesterday.

Moved to a smaller room in my house and packed 10 totes and 5 loose boxes for storage (as I got too much stuff). Presently re-arranging my collection with the hopes in selling/trading in my stuff later on. 

* For those that got screamed at from your relatives/significant other for collecting too much, we all have the same problem as we buy, buy, buy and it takes up too much room until it's time to move then we all see the aftermath *

It would fit, it's the super parts that have problems because Bandai reshaped the front of the forearm. Since the GBP are parts slide on, it's not an issue.

I went a little crazy with some Ashley Wood designed robots. These are from the WWR and ABC Warrior series. I didn't realize the dude on the right was so BIG! That shelf is 14.75" tall and 38" wide for scale. I love him though! I have a bit of a goofy/weird robot collection forming these guys are going to slot right into. There are two more on the way (of the smaller ones).

The second from the left is a robot pooper scooper:p He even comes with little piles of poo, LOL. They're in his stomach/storage/trash can area right now.

There's an ABC warriors figure series? Whats the range?

No chance that there's a Rogue trooper series?

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.

 

Do it!!!:p

Would you please stop teasing us. Me too has an eye on the low vis for a long time but until now I could resist those high prices... but this picture... :angry:

I could maybe talk myself into $350, but the prices I'm finding are $450 right now.

 

I paid $325 and $300 (with shipping) for those two recently. If you shop hard you will probably find one for $350 or les.s

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).
