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

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.

 

34000 yen for the bid price, and extra 3000 yen for shipping, in total is 37000 yen

I am a consumer whore so I will buy the Arcadia YF-21 and Bandai VF-22 if they ever released them. :o

I'll be ok to call a whore as long that they will produce those. :lol:

wooo, nice!  glad to know I'm not the only person dropping 300-400 on a single valk hahaha.  Have to hold off on a yf-21 for now since there's so much coming out in the next couple months.

Wow. So it did command that price nowadays. 

Can't imagine that it was just like 2.5 years ago when I purchased my two 21's over eBay for a total of that amount. Arcadia should really make an updated YF-21 soon. I wouldn't mind to get two of those again. ;)

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 pre-ordered a handful of chain bases as well.  I wish they would re-release bases 001-003 because I prefer the horizontal lines even though they all look pretty cool.  What do you think of the TT GC Machine Nest bases (http://www.gundammodelcenter.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=16)?  $80 shipped, for the equivalent of 5 MSG renewal chain bases.  The TT GC bases also come with way more option parts...

Those are tempting to get.

Aren't they?!?! I have visions of a massive base in which to woosh my valks around hahaha  I almost bought the Machine Nests a few times over the past couple days but it's my understanding that the Knock Off versions are made from old molds and inferior/thinner plastic, causing fitment issues which also makes them tough to use with the official Kotobukiya versions.  Overall I think the 25% markup on the MSG versions will make for a nicer display.

We'll see.  Maybe I'll buy a machine nest set anyway...for research purposes hehehe

Master Made Scorponok came in yesterday, and it is real nice. Their Trypticon and HMR Monster pictured for scale.

Not really a big fan of TF toys... well, except for some Hot Rod/imus figures. But those Master Made ones, I somehow want to collect it. But since they're huge, not sure where to display it. Hehehe. :lol:

there's just way go much awesome going on in that picture....it's puuuurfectly done...Ok...someone had to do it. Which 2 Bond AutoArt's are those???

Toyota 2000GT from You Only Live Twice and Lotus Esprit from For Your Eyes Only. 

good price too. ebay seller said they were from an estate liquidation of a 007 nut. too bad i already had the other cars he was also selling.

just to share: after a decade of anticipation, Autoart finally released last year an Aston Martin Volante, albeit not a 007 version (red seats not black) as they seem to have lost the license.

settled for it in the meantime to fill the gap in my collection. but still holding out hope for a proper 007 version as seen in The Living Daylights

lol! they're just the usual Persians. tried to shoo them away and pathetically failed. 

they are also apparently resin junkies, ignoring the treats i put on the floor and instead kept on sniffing the 1/144 Destroids

Where did you pick your Scorponok from? I have it pre-ordered through The Chosen Prime but they are getting their shipment at the end of March.

Thank you for that scale picture because damn I did not know it was that big. I need more shelf space.
