Valkyrie Driver Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Aye. And the post office has been jacking things up too. Two of my packages have been delivered to the wrong address (not the big ones, I bought some books that got put in wrong mailboxes at my apartment complex...grrr...). I'm hoping against hope they arrive before Spring break, since I'll be out of town. Either that or I hope they arrive after, since I'll be back...

calubin_175 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 New to Macross collecting. Bought within the past two weeks: Macross Quarter 10800 yen - Have been trying to find a nice carrier/fortress toy from various Japanese sci-fi series. Planes aren't to scale but could be handled well with fingers. VF-25S Ozma Renewal 16500 yen Armored Parts for VF-25S Ozma Renewal 40% less of market price (opened, good price for holy grail) Fell in love with the design from episode 1 of frontier. Have always liked the armored VF-1 and VF-0 since it is skinny guy bulked up. YF-25 Prophecy 10500 yen opened but in good condition Super parts for VF-25A 6000 yen Super parts for VF-25G 6000 yen (No main figure for these two guys yet, waiting for reissue of the latter) Love the super parts simply because they are designed to be an essential disposable combat jacket and equipped for all space missions. Pre-ordered YF-29 Percival Rod's from CDJapan YF-29 Alto + Super Parts 25% off market price (has been transformed once, good price for holy grail given that the super parts are 15 to 20k ish) VF-27 with super parts 16000 yen (favourite VF design wise, toy wise it may be inferior but have to cope, good successor/alternative to my other favourite, the SV-51) I don't like Alto's VF-25's head color scheme much but really needed a rival to complement the VF-27 Lucifer, hence the naming of Messiah vs Lucifer. However, technically, the YF-29 is more like a technologically on par competitor to the VF-27. Not sure if I will get any more. I am thinking the Vf-19Advance sales may flop if the wings get floppy in battroid mode from the weight of the super parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Driver Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 So I had to cancel one of my orders, because it's not what I thought it was. Apparently it was just the super parts for the alto custom, but not the actual alto custom. The price was insane for just the super parts. Which is a bit upsetting...

Benson13 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 So I got a haul coming. A big haul. Like a super mega haul. I'm so damn excited I had to say something because there's no one to tell around here. God those old Robotech figures are terrifying. I'm pretty sure they were some of the inspiration for some of the enemies in Silent Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 40th anniversary looks good except the Volt Panzer's tracks. The Panzer's legs are long, i prefer the predecessor issue.

Valkyrie Driver Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Look what just came in the mail: I was a bit disappointed that it wasn't the VF-171 that I was waiting for, but I'm still glad this arrived. I hope to be seeing the VF171 here soon, seeing as it shipped around the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the one you posted pics up of? Yeah. I was down to 2 Hot toy's, and though the Robocop figure is awesome... I just don't see myself collecting anymore of them. I am just not an action figure guy when it comes down to it. I prefer transforming robos - I used a good bit of points for the robo so it was a good deal for me. I traded it to a guy here for the VF-1J armor parts set. It's the late edition with good shoulders. Unused decals.
