mech9T8 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 So I haven’t bought any Macross stuff in a while but have been looking lately. I came across a sale locally that I couldn’t pass up. A 1/60 Yamato v2 Hikaru Strike. One of the shoulders was broken but I ordered replacement parts from shapeways. All in it set me back $200 CAD...pretty good deal I think. This is my first v2 and it’s really nice. A little tricky to transform though. Might be buying a few more. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnout6 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) Worse part about the purchase was the shipping. Cant wait for Mandarake to have ferry back as an option. Edited March 10, 2021 by burnout6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenius Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I don't recall them ever having it as an option... Sure would have been convenient over the last year. I used to buy a lot from them but I haven't made a purchase since the pandemic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroTaku79 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I bought couple items from Sahra mandarake few days ago and once again... DHL Express is majorly dropping the ball not being able to deliver my package when I am home all day.... Now, I am hoping DHL dumbass don't send back my package back to Mandarake...

burnout6 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 DHL always gave me a choice to release without a signature. I would get a email/text about out for delivery and another one after it gets delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgified Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I also did the same thing as well for a unofficial HT 1/6th figure using DHL @burnout6 for shipping. Since I'm located North of the 49th Parallel, I also get reports of Custom Fees/Duties well. Sign up for DHL delivery notices @BroTaku79 when you get stuff from Manda. That's how kept track of my Yammie 1/60 VF-11b from getting lost or stolen by porch thieves once it's gets dropped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how kept track of my Yammie 1/60 VF-11b from getting lost or stolen by porch thieves once it's gets dropped off. I have DHL notification but that isn't the issue...the problem is DHL driver saying delivery exception two times when I was home all day... these drivers are lazy and they don't even want to input a gate code to open the gate of my apartment...on top of that DHL system is just broken period. After two failed delivery attempt, I had chosen to have my package delivered at one of DHL's service point location and even that failed as I got a notification stating incorrect address delivery exception...like how does that happen when I chose service point specified by DHL system. So now, I had to get on the phone for an hour with dumbass DHL and had to get the package routed to DHL delivery hub center before these morons try to send the package back to Japan... I am not even confident about having to have this routed to DHL hub center as DHL morons are fully capable of messing this one up too.. DHL is the only carrier that I had problems with, no fedex, no UPS, and no USPS errors. Edited March 11, 2021 by BroTaku79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borgified Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hmm... I seem to recall someone having the same issues with DHL as well somewhere here in these threads (don't know which one exactly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait to start her off on stuffed animals.... then introduce her to some cheap Toynami 1/100 scale VF-1 toys... before upgrading her to the Hi-Metal R versions. And I will show her the original series, Plus, 7, and Frontier all the time!!! And I will teach her how to code and solve differential equations. It will be great!

Stampeed Valkyrie Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Found these at the local wally world. Toy pickings are pretty slim as most of the TF stuff is cleared out, been following the G1 reissues when I can find them and have had pretty good luck. From what I can tell there are 2 waves of these out, and I am missing 2 of them but not bad for a random trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL The secret we found was that they start with tiny bellies, so they eat and then wake up hungry a few hours later. If you feed them so their stomach expands, they tend to sleep longer.
