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. 7 hours ago, Slave IV said: Ah, makes sense. Good deal in that case! I have not seen the new X-Men wave at retail yet. I really want Shatterstar! Saw them in person last night at a specialty shop but not paying the markup. Meanwhile, I think I might have secured an HMR Dougram for myself, finally. 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'm sure most that X-Men wave will be on ~$10 clearance like the previous one so I'm not in a rush. By the time I decided I wanted Dougram, it was sold out at all the good preorder prices. Hopefully the one I just ordered will come through. I just ordered Xabungle too. I'm not missing any more HMR releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HardlyNever Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 About a year late on this one, still excited nonetheless. My first (and probably last) non-SDF Macross purchase (it kinda counts as sdf right ): Got the display stand as part of the purchase. It's a lot sturdier than I expected.

Xigfrid Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Arcadia has just announced the SV-51 as the new mold, so it is pretty safe to think that the YF-21 will not be on sale before at least 2 years from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
