ZorClone Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I need to get a tackle box or something to put all the valk accessories in and get rid of my boxes... Hmm.... YetiStor(age) perhaps? YetiBox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no3Ljm Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hahaha! Funny to know that I'm not the only one who has problems with boxes. I decided to dispose some double boxes. Don't want the wife to find out I have doubles of everything. Hahaha! j/k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Yeah, I have to devote a good chunk of space for valkyrie boxes too. Grats on the ever growing army! Hey, did you just cut and paste the same pic 3 times?? hey thanks! hehe! yep is same pic three times! when they arrive I'll line them up the very same way and take a shot of the actual boxes! LOL! more boxes to store some where.. Hahaha! Funny to know that I'm not the only one who has problems with boxes. I decided to dispose some double boxes. Don't want the wife to find out I have doubles of everything. Hahaha! j/k hehe! I had been wanting to fold down the Yamato boxes which are the same size and stack the plastic inserts on top of each other which can save space. I might experiment that with the 3x brownies when they arrive. If it works the I'll pull more boxes out of the wardrobe and do more of them the same way.

This is safe for Yamato doubles and VF-1's boxes. For Bandai DX... forget it. Hehehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehehe. and funny enough I find the Bandai DX boxes are a little more efficient in terms of space used in my wardrobe for example than the Yamato boxes.. And the fact I have more than twice the amount of Yamato boxes than Bandai which is also a contributing factor.. I need to find a solution soon so I will definitely be seeing how these boxes will compress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I can't wait to see your display spanner. I have one entire bedroom filled with toys and boxes. It's like a huge walk in closet. Luckily I still have 2 other bedrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

File all the manuals and sticker sheets. Fold all the Yamato and Bandai DX boxes and throw away all the styro and plastic trays. Problem solved. More space once again.

Luckily I still have 2 other bedrooms. same here! I thinking I might start putting boxes in some good quality plastic garbage bags, seal them up and store them in the roof cavity! got no other solution and there is plenty of space up in there. My only concern is it does get VERY hot up there during the warmer months even though I have one of those spinning whirly bird vent thingies.. though it will only be the boxes and nothing of any significant value I guess.. And sadly I have no spare bedrooms available.. The only solution to compress every boxes, my friend, is to put all the accessories in a ziplock. File all the manuals and sticker sheets. Fold all the Yamato and Bandai DX boxes and throw away all the styro and plastic trays. Problem solved. More space once again. so im thinking I'll separate the TV & DYRL option parts, missiles etc and put them in snap lock bags. The plastic inserts can stack together and I'll flatten all the boxes. what ever doesn't stack and fold can go in bags in the roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Keep in mind, the super/strike pack bundle boxes can hold a lot of trays. Keep two of those assembled to store as many trays as you can (one for bottoms, one for tops), and compress the rest. Since Yamato began using smaller boxes on everything, you might even be able to do this with the VF-17 bundle boxes. The two boxes full of trays will probably have lots of room for accessories under them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I've checked the three TV brownies that I already have and none of them have broken shoulders. And the one which has a rainbow canopy shows no signs of cracking either thankfully. So here's hoping that the three coming don't have any issues either. Touch wood! I haven't had any troubles with stuff that I've bought from Jungle or Mandarake but I'll certainly be keeping my fingers crossed.. Wait, only one of your TV brownies has the tinted canopy? The other 2 are completely clear??? Was there a reissue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Man Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 not sure!? but they are definitely clear! should they not be? I was just under the impression that all the 1/60 V2 TV VF-1A Mass Production Types had the tinted canopies. By "completely clear" I mean without the rainbow/mirror tint.

spanner Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 maybe I should check them again!? though im not sure how I would have not seen that they were rainbow or not? I'll let you know.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) Got home to greet the three new additions to my VF-1 Valkyrie collection! All three boxes are in perfect zero crease or damage condition! all three Valkyrie are in 100% perfect condition with NO broken shoulders! all have perfect rainbow canopies! Also I must apologize as I made an error about the other three I already have.. they too all have rainbow canopies. Not sure how I got that wrong as its quite clearly visible!? I blame the lighting in my cabinets.. When I get a chance I will start moving things around in order to make the Max & Milia wedding display as planned.. so in the meantime, here are some photos to enjoy!

no3Ljm Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 So people are indeed scalping the NES mini. My wife really wanted one but they sold out in all the online and local stores in a single night. Sad to say, it's yes. And look how much they're going now. It's the same price as this gen's consoles. And for the price going on, I think it's safe to just get the old console and its 200+ cartridges. But this is not something to die for, so it's ok if I missed it. Besides, my son will just criticize its graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
