Hmm...In 1988 I had stored the gunpod, missiles, instruction booklet, mini-catalog and box of my Takatoku VF-1S, my first Macross toy, in my closet. One day my mother took it upon herself to throw out anything in that closet not placed on a hanger, including the 1S's box. Back then I slept with my VF-1S so she didn't get to throw that out.
I finally replaced the gunpod and missiles with the advent of e-bay, however I still look badly on Mom for doing what she did...
