Gorgeous!  And so the stable grows...:good:

To this day I have never purchased any yellow vehicles... that has to be remedied some day.  The Gallardo in my collection, a regular LP560-4... AUTOart of course, is Monterey Blue.

A lovely model no doubt! Its a very nice blue isn't it! Before I found the Super Trofeo I nearly pulled the trigger on the Italian Polizia version which is a lighter shade of blue. But im glad my path of discovery led to the yellow one! Who knows maybe I'll still get the police car version down the track..

Just bought Marvel Legends 3.75" X-23 Wolverine x2, Lady Deadpool, Maestro, and Moon Knight for $28.11.

Whut? How? I saw Maestro and almost bought it but passed because I wasn't going to pay $13+ for a 3.75"...I hate paying that much for the 6" versions.

I used some points to get it for that total price.  Yeah the regular cost of 3.75" is too much.

Have you found the new Marvel Legends 6" X-Men figures?  I haven't been going to stores lately.

This arrived today.

Since spanner keeps spamming about die cast cars, he is guilty of me getting this.

And found this great little guy to go with them, the scale kinda works

Been spending probably more than I should on Macross recently.

But you have to admit, after seeing it personally you know that all of your Macross spending is fruitful. Don't you agree? ^_^

Ah, makes sense. Good deal in that case!

I have not seen the new X-Men wave at retail yet. I really want Shatterstar! Saw them in person last night at a specialty shop but not paying the markup.

Meanwhile, I think I might have secured an HMR Dougram for myself, finally.

Oh, these are definitely worth it. Up until a few months ago, the only Macross I had ever owned was the Yamato Anniversary 19 and Bandai VB-6. Now I have 5 HMRs, 3 DX Chogokins, and 2 Arcadias.

Good for you sir! Keep them coming. ;)

Next up is Messer's 31 and Keith's 262. After that maybe dip into Yamato with the VF-11B and YF-21 to round out Plus

Oh yeah. Those two rivals. I have to prepare for those two this month and the next. Oh boy. Hahaha! :lol:

As fot the PLUS ones, good luck sir. Prices for those are still high. Better check YJA too. ;)

That's cool.  1/64 die cast cars are good enough along with 1/60 Valkyries.

Even though I have multiples of 1/64 KITT and KARR I still bought this because it's Knight Rider.

Yeah I'm still deciding where I want to get the X-Men figures for the cheapest.  I saw 3.75" Moon Knight in person today and it didn't look that good.  Got the HMR Dougram ordered at HLJ.  I'll have it shipped with a few Macross books and whatever else ends up in the PW.  It probably won't last in time to ship with the DX SV-262 and 8 Mechanical Chain Bases.  For non-Macross HMR, I might just get a few here and there.

I'm sure most that X-Men wave will be on ~$10 clearance like the previous one so I'm not in a rush. By the time I decided I wanted Dougram, it was sold out at all the good preorder prices. Hopefully the one I just ordered will come through. I just ordered Xabungle too. I'm not missing any more HMR releases.

About a year late on this one, still excited nonetheless.

My first (and probably last) non-SDF Macross purchase (it kinda counts as sdf right :p):

Got the display stand as part of the purchase.  It's a lot sturdier than I expected.

B)) cool! :good:

That looks a lot sleeker than I thought the VF-4 would be. I may have to change my mind about how I feel concerning this valk...

Awesome score!! Everyone should have at least one VF-4 in their collection. B))

I'm really happy to be able to win this thing on a Yahoo Auction last week, and to be honest, i was kinda surprised when they said im the highest bidder and actually win this YF-21 to complete my Macross Plus collection

Ah nice. would love to add one to my collection. How much did you snag it for?

Hope Arcadia gets around to the yf-21 soon.

Congrats on the VF-4! I suppose one could live with a VF-4, if you call that living. :D

Nice score! But does that mean you won't buy a future Arcadia YF-21? :o

About 34,000 yen, and to be quite honest, i dont really want an Arcadia YF-21,cuz i know Bandai is gonna release something similar in their DX Chogokin  line  sooner or later

No i won't, because i will save my money for that special Bandai DX Chogokin VF-22 Sturmvogel II with NUNS markings in the future ^_^

Wow. Didn't know that YF-21 nowadays command that price. Was the Y34000 your total shipped or just the winning bid amount?

Arcadia has just announced the SV-51 as the new mold, so it is pretty safe to think that the YF-21 will not be on sale before at least 2 years from now.

That's true even if I really wanted to see a new YF-21 mold by Arcadia. Even if I want Bandai to have their own DX YF-21 or that VF-22 shown at Delta, I still wish more for an Arcadia one.
