Got this thing during a sale to check out.

Mainly, I’m obsessed with and a sucker for any toy or replica Cap shield that is made of metal. This “Chogokin” line always sparked my interest for this reason alone so I had to bite when I saw at a pretty significant discount. 

Well, the shield is plastic so there goes that. The figure itself is not all metal either but I wouldn’t care if it was all plastic as long as the shield was metal. Anyway, now I have another Cap figure to display somewhere but I won’t be buying any more of these things.

Now, this figure is nothing short of magnificent!

The sculpt and finish...OMG! I was going back and forth on getting the exclusive gold bodyguard version but damn am I glad I did not skimp myself. Revo keeps on impressing me as one of the best in the game and I hope they keep giving me classic characters like this and their Marvel AY line.

That looks very cool!  Congrats on getting them! It looks like the gold ones are hard to come by now.

Yeah, the Gold was an exclusive. I don't know how hard Revo exclusives are to get historically, but I know I had some time to think about it before I pulled the trigger on the preorder. Again, I'm glad I did it.

You made right choice. :good:

Personally, I try to collect any Nausicaa toy I can. I have that figure as well.  The silver version that is.  Sometimes items slip under my radar and I have to scramble to source it.  Have to stay on top of things.

Yeah, I like the recent resurgence of Nausicaa toys and I got the Sentinel Ohmu but not the hebikera yet....The Sentinel pieces are super expensive as usual and not sure if I can justify the cost for it. But I want it!

I have always admired that Sentinel Ohmu, but I can't come to grips with the cost.  I was fortunate to catch the Hebikera on a really good mark down on BBTS.  It's quite the stunning piece, and I didn't really grasp how big it was until I got it in hand.  Unfortunately, it seems to be sold out now.

Damn it! Oh wait, that’s the Revo version. I missed that one too but I was thinking of the Sentinel at around 5x the cost

Still not sure if is totally new and not transformed, it came tightly wrapped around with this piece plastic:

also in the legs it has this portion of protective plastic:

If a fellow collector  here in the forums knows if this is totally new piece would be really nice to know, nonetheles I'm so happy I finally Have YF 21, Bandai your turn now :D

Picked up a couple things today from other members.

A Master Made Makuros from @Arthurius, and a custom re-painted/weathered VF-1S Roy w/ SSP from @RedComet

I think Kakizaki's a bit annoyed at being upstaged and having to share his Detolf shelf.

This is the second time today that I have been teased with the weathered Roy. I think the universe is trying to tell me something.:o

I just popped these guys out. First draft of a DYRL shelf. Getting a feel for what will and will not fit. I've got M&M Q-Rau's too. They're probably going to have to go on the M&M shelf. I don't see them working here without really jammin stuff in there (which isn't my nature). I feel like the back corners need something though. Or, another option is to put all of these in Battroid and V tem into the back corners. Then put a 1/60 VT and VE where the fighters are now. Yeah, wrong scale. May not be too egregious though with the 1/48's in Battroid and the Fighters in 1/60. I'm going to have to think about that.

Having played with these Yammies and DX's at the same time really shows the difference 20ish years makes. The DX's are just plan beefier in Battroid. Like, "Man, those DX's have been hitting the weights" beefier. IMO the nod goes to the DX's in Battroid. Fighter is a a toss up to slight advantage to the Yamato's.

There may be some @RedComet customs happening to replace those Yammies.:rolleyes:

I got a pretty good deal on those Yammies on Yahoo Auctions. All from the same seller.
