@borgified -- maaaybe, I want to, so I can make a space bridge out of the bases, but summer funds are super tight around here, and if I do anything I want to pre-order the Magic Square Megs...

I’m so close to ordering the Coneheads. I only want Thrust but the figures are so good that having more and getting extra space bridge parts almost me not care about paying three times more just to get the one figure I want.

The 0D's came out of their boxes a few days ago. I've had the 0S/Reactive Armor for a while in boxes. Man! I'm super happy with it! If I had known it would blow me away this much it would have been un-boxed a long time ago.

I've got a guy who is here in Michigan that does custom helmets doing a SDFM Hikaru helmet right now. Not nearly as cost effective as these. But, they look pretty darn good in pics and the paint is WAY better. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out. And at this point I'm all in on helmets. May as well have him do a SDFM Roy. Spoken like a true addict!:p

I'd love to have a Miria to go with my Max. That would be pretty fun. And I'd really love to have Roy's helmet from Zero. Miria would just be a matter of paint. Roy's Zero helmet is going to be somewhere between a fortune and impossible.

I'm happy with my one Max helmet but look forward to seeing more of all of yours!

you guys with the Masei helmets, they make a blue bubble shaped visor that looks more like the animation. you have to shave the inside edge of the visor a little, but I think it really brings the extra out of it. I copied someone on MW who did it, but it's a nice thing, and posted a long time ago, so I'll repost it

That does look excellent! I saw they had different color visors but didn't realize they had this different shape too. Damn, I just might have to...

On another note, just got some more Diaclone and aw hell! What in the world have I gotten myself into?

For anyone else wanting to know, these bubble shields are "vintage" style shields, easily found on ebay. You will have to shave the inside of your helmet to make them fit. Specifically the area near your cheek, the bubble is just slightly too big to put it back on. I'm pretty sure someone here did a write up a while ago.

Ah, I thought you meant in your previous post that you need to shave part of the clear shield, not the helmet. That’s a dealbreaker for me because I’m not shaving anything off the helmet. Looks awesome though.

So, if you’ve read other comments on it, some people aren’t happy with a few things about it. To me, it came out better than expected and it’s hard to compare with it’s looks since it looks so good so based on that I’d say it feels slightly less good than it looks. The only complaint that I’m not even complaining about on mine is it has very tight shoulders but I know that is an easy fix. Transformation and articulation are all really good.

Figuarts Emperor Palps showed up today, bigger box then I expected too. Beautiful figure, excellent detail throughout, looks good with the guards.

Before the chaos ensues, I just got these grails today both weathered, both new/unused.  Never thought I'd find the SSP weathered with such a limited run.
