Anubis Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 (edited) In case anyone is interested, HLJ has the Bandai 1/55 VF-1A CF on sale for 17.46US. Don't think I really want one, but figured I'd post in case anyone else wants another chunky monkey for pretty cheap. Link Edit: Should have titled it "VF-1A on sale at HLJ............again." They must really want to move these out of there, placing them 70% off. Edited September 6, 2003 by Anubis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etrigan Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Done and done. Thanks for the heads up. Shipping's abot as much as the plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted September 6, 2003 Author Share Posted September 6, 2003 The shipping alone is what nixed it for me. If I am going to spend 30 bucks, I would rather put that towards an Elintseeker, or the second set of Fast Packs I need for my Roy 1/48 once it arrives. But maybe there's someone who still likes chuncky monkeys ........................ -insert sound of crickets- or buy one for your kid of you haven't already, so he/she can be indoctrinated into Macross properly without killing one of your Yamato valks in the process.

Etrigan Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 (edited) I went ahead and placed a large order I had been holding back on, an extra $18 isn't going to break me. And like you said, chunky monkeys can be messed around with almost infinitely without worry of damage. I certainly wouldn't buy one for $50+ though.

Rune Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I certainly wouldn't buy one for $50+ though. Man......We are spoiled!! I remember a couple years ago this was impossible to find this cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etrigan Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Very true. But 1/48 FAST packs vs. a CF chunky? The chunky has no chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted September 6, 2003 Author Share Posted September 6, 2003 This month has been expensive enough. After all that spendage, another chunky monkey isn't as tempting as it once was. Especialy after all the cool crap we got this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joke-machine Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I still love the chunky monkeys! Monkey lovers stand tall and have your voices heard! Edit: Okay, that sounded really bad in retrospect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSJ23 Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I still love the 1/55's but since there will be no strike release I have all the 1/55's I need. I caught the 1/55 CF sale last year so I'll pass on the sale this time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechatek Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I still love the chunky monkeys! Monkey lovers stand tall and have your voices heard! Edit: Okay, that sounded really bad in retrospect. Just call'em CMs. I still enjoy 'em, come on it's The Original Valk. I got all the reissues, 4x Super 1S and might get another. And like most CM lovers, still waiting for the reissues of the last four, Hikaru 1S Strike, VT-1, VE-1, and GBP-1S armor. -No cricket sounds around here. <_<- Maybe it's for the 1/60 line?

kanata67 Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I still love the chunky monkeys! Monkey lovers stand tall and have your voices heard! Edit: Okay, that sounded really bad in retrospect. I thought monkey lovers were stooped over and had hairy palms I prefer being labeled a bandai lover myself LOL. I'd get them at that price but for the shipping. Is shipping cheaper to japan? As in... could I get a couple sent to monkey nugget and pay him to ship them to me along with the stuff I want from him?
