Not only a unicorn, but a prodigal son returning.
I was in the OG Low Vis Owner's Club back in the day.  Unfortunately I had to sell it when my ex destroyed our finances.
I found a local dealer who had two of them, worked with him before at a couple of toyshows and cons.
Imagine my surprise when I opened it and found my mark on the inner tab.
My baby is home.

Keep an eye out on yahoo auctions japan. I’ve purchased 5-6 low viz (in minty condition) in the last couple years and never paid more than $250 shipped.

Thanks! That Galactus is a key piece that I have cherished since I got it. Feels like something may be coming to maybe make it obsolete but not really, I’ll still have that one around and it fits perfectly on that shelf. 

Get ready for the Four foot, $350 Haslab one.

Yeah...I don't want them to make it so I can save my space and money but if they do make it...

Hopefully they knock it out of the park.  I’m not usually an electronics guy but the additional light up features they added to the Sentinel really were impressive.

Just got the Eaglemoss STO Bortasqu’ and Aelahl.  I pretty much hate every Federation design they’ve ever made but they seem to nail the progression of the Klingon’s and Romulans every time.  Bortasqu’ has some soft details unfortunately but the Aelahl is amazing in sculpt and paint detail.

Looking forward to the Marvel Legends Retro Fantastic Four wave and a Haslab Galactus.

I did not see that listing at all when was scoping out for deals @ValkAddict (plus it doesn't help if I didn't peek into Jungle for three days). :lol:

You got one of the grails in the Macross collection there. 

Thanks! I had been looking for many months and eBay listings made the item unobtainable for me. So I am very thankful.

Marvel Legends Disney Plus Winter Soldier and Loki.  Loki looks a little pale but other than that the face printing and likenesses on Bucky and Loki in person are excellent.  I’ll let my preorders with Dorkside come in for the rest of the wave.

Got my XL Nebula Class in the mail today.  Eaglemoss always has to goof something and this time it’s the stand, it causes the nacelles to slightly bend up and out.  Otherwise it’s actually a pretty great model.

Wow that actually looks pretty nice! Might have to pick one up. Haven't bought any Eaglemoss in awhile as I'm mostly interested in the hero ships. Not really into STO stuff.

One ship I've wanted that I've never, ever seen in stock is the Negh'var. Freaking Eaglemoss.

Your mileage may vary with how straight Nacelles, etc... are but I'm pretty happy wit the one I have here.

STO I'm not particularly enthused by but I do think the two I just got are great and should be canonical.  I think the upgraded Klingon ship makes a nice transition from the Negh'var, actually.

I think the details are kind of soft but you might just be in luck. https://shop.eaglemoss.com/us/hero-collector/star-trek/klingon-iks-negh-var

New to this franchise and to this fourm but I am glad to be a part of it. There are the two Macross figures I have, YF-29 (2020 ver.) and VF-31C. 

I'm still blown away how can look so good and transform into an aircraft with almost no kibble on the bottom.

Funny, guess what arrived today?

Picked it up mainly because, based on the listed dimensions, it would scale really well with the regular Enterprise-D. It's almost perfectly in scale. The show never really emphasized what a monster of a ship the Warbird was compared to the Enterprise.

So would you recommend the XL version?  I'm pretty happy with my mini D'Deridex.

Only if you absolutely love the Warbird design or really enjoy having it in scale with its primary adversary from the show like I do. And can get it with a 20% discount.

I actually don't know where I put my regular edition so I can't really make a direct comparison atm.
