Well, the Eaglemoss ones are nice, but they're the wrong scale.

As are the Moebius models, that come in 1:72 (too big for HMR, too small for 1:60) or 1:32 (too big for... anything Macross, really).

There are smaller die-cast toy versions available, but I wouldn't use "highly detailed" to describe 'em...  <_<

I think you're SOL, scand.

Cool.  The Gorilla Alien is also nice.  I’ve seen the Snake Alien several times in person but haven’t pulled the trigger.

Very cool.  If you have a spare set, they would look lovely kept MISB.

Is everyone else able to see those in @enphily 's post?  I was only able to see them in @Alphahorizon's quote where they show up like links and open in a new window.  Even then, they didn't want to show up very well.  Just wondering if it's my browser of a site issue.  I see this from time to time on this site.

I’m able to see all posts.

Congrats on the Loki and Corvus Glaive set.  I’m just going to wait for mine to ship.  How tall are they compared with SHF MCU figures?

Took me a few days to snap a shot.  Glaive works pretty well next to the Figuarts Thanos (though he is too tall still) and perfect next to SHF Cap but as you can see Loki is too tall.

Not exactly a toy or anything, but....

I just received this medallion as part of my induction into the Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi for being in the top 10% of my PhD class.

Valkyrie? Elite Meltran pilot Quaedluun. <_<

Is poison really necessary on top of being an acid strong enough to melt through steel?  I mean maybe predator can take it on in a physical fight, but I still don't think poison is really adding much to a zenomorph.

On a more serious note, what canon does this come from?

Edit: Looked it up and it came from Dark Horse Comics Alien series.  Supposedly, it only spits acid, not poisonous acid.  I only assumed from the blue/purple fangs and... hood... talon... things.

Friday at 11:30: find a single HMR VF-4 in stock with Amazon Japan (sold+shipped by Amazon) and order it to replace the defective one HLJ sent.

Friday at 8pm shipped

Today at 6:40pm get home and it's waiting for me (in California)

 

Amazon Japan really does have the best international shipping.

I feel like Bandai did us dirty with these nano weapon "sets". 

New Purchase 04/02/2019

 

Bandai are REALLY milking that effing feature.  And they don't even have the decency to release a single weapons pack.  Just the MK50 again and again and again.

This is really true. Bandai learned this from Hot Toys -- just the Mark 7 over and over again. ;)

 

@Mommar & @anubis20
By the way, what can you guys say about the Revoltech Gambit?

Bandai is only releasing the MK VII mold for a second time with the Python armor.

Everything that needs to be said about Revo Gambit Kuma managed to capture in a single image.

Also, STO version of the Enterprise F showed up today.  Weird Livery but the mold is bang on this time.  Straight pylons, wow Eaglemoss!

I think "doin' us dirty" is Bandai's new MO going into the future. Making us buy missiles separately for VFs, making us buy the damn Mark 50 over and over just to get a few accessories. I'm surprised Cap's shield and Thanos' double-bladed sword aren't being sold separately as a TWE weapon pack.

Looks good! I don't really like the F design, but glad to see Eaglemoss produced a good quality ship.
