Saburo Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 gee it almost looks cooler without all the fairings/bodywork on it! I agree it does looks cooler without the fairings. Didn't it light up? No this one didn't light it, that one that lit up was the Medicom/Bandai version and that sells for crazy money now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkymonkeyjavajunky Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Hi Everyone, I have a quick question to all the guys with the super large collections, what do you guys do with the empty boxes? Do you guys store them or throw them away? If you guys store them, how do you manage the space? They take up so much space! (and I would rather use that space to display my other toys. I know you can collapse the boxes, but what do you do with the inserts? Can you guys give me a few pointers? Thanks in advance! Throw them away?? Not when I'm spending $200-300 a toy. But to answer your question...I stack my boxes (with inserts) tetris style in my closet. Bandai and Arcadia have produced more efficient-sized, smaller boxes, when compared to some of the beasts that Yamato produced. I'm up to 31 valks, a modest collection.

Gunbuster Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Thanks wmkjr and funkymonkeyjavajunky for your responses. I'm blown away you are able to pack in 31 boxes in a closet! My place is so small, even doing wmkjr's great tip will only help a little. I feel a little bad for throwing away these boxes @_@;; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can collapse the boxes, but what do you do with the inserts? Can you guys give me a few pointers? Thanks in advance! I eventually outgrew the closets in my apartment, so I got a storage unit for all my boxes and multiples valks, along with various household items. yeah i have one boxed up it was crazy money Ooohhh... You have the Kaneda figure too? oh cool there is a light up version too! But I'd just be happy with the one you have.. But from memory these are also becoming expensive! I am happy with this one, but it would be nice to have the Medicom version. hey guys, don't mind me, i'm just testing out a new uploader as photobucket is buggy: *snip* Wow, piles of Macross goodness! Oh and looks like the new uploader works. Between Kaneda's Bike, David's stash. a VF-0S and Folder Booster. There's just too much good stuff here!!! On sensory overload on all of the goodies! The most iconic motorcycle in all of anime. Had to. Now I'm officially jealous. Quoted for truth. -b. So I guess I'll consider the pics of Kaneda's Bike as a tribute to you Kaneda's Bike. no pics but just picked up a MIB SV-51 Nora last week. Gotta have someone to fight the 0D/0A/0S. Sweet pickup barurutor, looking forward to your pics. I am hoping for an Arcadia retooled release of the Sv-51s.

Were you able remove it completely?Yup i got i completely off Before And this is after i removed it What technique and solvent did you use?I used a Q-tip and dish detergent. Just dab the detergent on the q-tip and then just rub the rainbow tint off. Takes a little bit of effort but it will all eventually come off.
