  1. Now I know why my Focker cost $400 ($250 + $150 shipping) Box within a box. At least it is MIB here :P

    Maybe we'll see some other design variations like the VF-1C too? Should be released now...so where it be?!

    Maybe we'll see some additional fan made customs based on the new art from the books-like the Angel Birds early version color he put in the book vs the 'official' one.

    there is an actual video of them going on the printer https://twitter.com/MasterFileblog Wow-this book is going to be epic! His VF-1J mockup for the TIA #1 cover wow wow
  7. Well you have to remember I am starting from my $400 focker, so if I can get a 2nd one $310 shipped , I'm working towards my own personal DX price normalization.
  8. Awesome that prices are dropping. Maybe I can secure a 2nd one and lower my average purchase price

    I hope it has his box art drawings/sketches he did for the model kits...I did not know they existed until I got the recent hobby Japan retro special. Come on hlj... send me the its arrived notification
  10. I only see the option to have "mobile navigation bar" option at the bottom, sorry I can ask the theme creator if this is an option. Would turning it off be an option? (if it is just in the way and you don't use it?) There is a little sliding switch icon at the top that allows you to at least hide it if it gets in the way
  11. No extra protective packaging, box is 3300 grams, or 7.2 pounds. Really curious how this thing is packed. Maybe it was safety packed, then stuffed into a larger box as was mentioned before Will find out in a couple days when I get my $400 focker!
  12. Anyone weigh one of these? Curious how many grams it weighs? (to reconcile my shipping costs) S
  13. Got one for 250 via buyee/tenso Dhl is 150....WTH did they pack it in??? I win.
  14. This is about the scale I'd like it... https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/n476651234
  15. yep-that just looks awesome, thanks! The black heat shield is definitely my personal preference, as incorrect as it may be.
  16. I like how it was still referred to as a Super Valkyrie, because Bandai didn't coin 'Strike' until 85
  17. So yesterday I pulled the Riobot Legioss off the shelf (was in soldier/battroid mode) and decided to get it to go into fighter mode. OMG it was a big hot mess of 'how in the heck do I move this to be over there' and 'there to here'. Couldn't remember what position/slot the legs needed to be in for a tight compact fighter mode (I guessed wrong) Now it is back in fighter mode, one side is a little bit droopier than the other(wings). The slightest touch and the arms disengage from their little slots. I enjoy the sculpt, but I sure wish they could dial back the transformation complexity a bit. Or just make the toy larger, as the pieces are so damn small. That could help a little when trying to figure out what goes where. This thing should not be 1/48 scale, in my opinion. Wonder if anything will be improved on the next version.
  18. 'Cause of the animation 'errors'! I've always liked this variant
  19. Waiting for someone to take the black focker heatshield and put it on their hikaru vf-1s please I want to see both movie 'variants' side by side please

  24. I'm a huge fan of his work, think I have 10 of his amazing making of books-the things are heavy as tanks and take an entire bottom shelf. Getting the new Aliens book for Christmas, its on my list, I can't wait! Just saw on Amazon he has Pancreatic Cancer, which is horrible http://www.jwrinzler.com/blog/jwr-update-from-genevieve-rinzler If you've been on the bench, go grab his books, they are fantastic reads while we are all trapped in our houses. And send your best thoughts to him and his family http://www.jwrinzler.com/star-wars-books.html http://www.jwrinzler.com/books-on-cinema.html Shawn
