Kicker773 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. I'm pretty sure they were some of the inspiration for some of the enemies in Silent Hill. Do tell...? Yeti I'll pm you once I have my list finalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Got some Swag today. All this for a $160 and a traded Hot Toy Robocop. Holy crap what a score!!! Especially the J-GBP set! Did you let your Robocop figure go!? Was that the one you posted pics up of? Edited March 9, 2015 by spanner76 Quote 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.

calubin_175 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 It does appear that, much like Hobbysearch 1999, HLJ does occasionally get some loose stock(pre owned possibly) and resurrect a listing. HLJ does have a record of stocking some web exclusive items at a premium from Yamato and Volks in the past. VF-22S being one of the worst Yamato moulds, they're selling it at below current market price. Initially, the VF-22S went at a discount of 50%. There are fail products in any line. The Bandai VF-171 is one of them and I am not sure what else to avoid. I have the VF-1J Armored on pre-order but might cancel it if Hi-Metal R gets confirmed. However, I would still like to try out a Yamato VF-1 just to see how good they are as I have not owned one before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Talking about VF-22...this is weird. http://www.hlj.com/product/YMT00169/Sci dang that is cheap! doesn't specify if its used or new though.. if only they had a Max at that price! no matter I have one arriving shortly which is what matters! nope! any plans on getting any of the other 25 lot?

Valkyrie Driver Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I have a VF-19F on the way, in addition to my VF-171 and VF-25F toys on the way. I'm super excited to get them. I hope the 171 gets here before friday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fwiw and ime, HLJ doesn't sell any "used" item. They'll sell and specify when it's "B-Grade" scratched/dented/damaged box items, tho.

Doublepush Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Ohhhh I'm getting excited. First order in a little while now, waiting on payment request from MANDARAKE for a VF-19 Kai Hi Metal and DX VF-25A Super Parts (gonna see bow they look bare bones, but most likely painting them in Alto's colors.)

TheCaptain Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Hey guy I just joined this awesome forum and got into Macross recently. Picked up a YF-19 from Arcadia and wow it's beautiful! For my next purchase I'm thinking of picking up the VF-0D or the YF-30 I'm leaning towards the 0D What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The YF-30 looks like a dumbass next to it in the pics. edit: here's a pic from CDX: http://collectiondx.com/gallery/v/Toys/Arcadia/vf0d/arcadia+vf0d+34.JPG.html Edited March 11, 2015 by treatment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I'll definitely look at it that way now. I've read that the DX Chogokin line suffers from loose joints as well. Has anyone had any problems with there YF-30 getting loose?

Offswitch Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Definitely the 0D. Much much prettier. And huge. And expensive. The YF-30 looks like a dumbass next to it in the pics. I second that! Just started collecting myself and having received my 0D recently, it is one fantastic bird. If you can afford to, definitely pick one up.

Has anyone had any problems with there YF-30 getting loose? To be fair, just about any toy will get loose over time if you play around with them and transform them enough. That said, my 30 has been pretty good... altho not as good as the 0D. The 0D is almost at the point of being too tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCaptain Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Yup I've made my decision lol. The 30 can wait and wow it's super small compared to the 0D Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Awww yeah! That's my last of the 22s as well! Congratulations.
