Nice!! Elintseekers are becoming prized pickups! -
would you consider selling this to me? no seriously I want it!
-
this looks flippin awesome!!!
-
WOW!!! they are both gorgeous figures! really looking forward to receiving mine! Many of the other Macross figures I have also have the "fan service" factor about them but its done quite tastefully and not ever unnecessarily revealing. Makes them very display friendly and won't get you weird looks from people who visit your house! Great photos! thanks for posting them!

I have to agree with you there Gakken.. the proportions of the 48's are odd in places but they do look fantastic in fighter mode! The longer nose really works for it in that mode. Some people argue that the 1/60 are too humanoid looking and that the head sits up to high but I rather like that and I firmly believe it adds to the Valkyrie's charm as a variable platform. Besides wasn't it was meant to look somewhat humanoid in order to be of similar dimensions and to combat the Zentradi!? The 1/48's are great toys no doubt and have a few of their own quirks such as the deploy-able speed brake, removable nose cone with radome, moving flaps and of course their sheer size!

ok so I swapped the Brownie with the Rainbow-J so I now have a whole shelf dedicated to J-Spec Valks! Hows it look now!?

Yeah I know they were a little on the expensive side but I had some left over money in my collectibles budget account before the next round of savings begins and I have eyeballed these two girls for a while now.. I know they will most likely show up on Mandarake eventually but I'd rather pay a bit more to get and enjoy them sooner! Several anime figures I too have over paid on but then others I have got at pretty good deals which kinda balances it all out.. roughly.. kinda sorta.. And yes Noel you are right its definitely nice to get a decent far less provocative Sheryl for a change as most of her stuff has been either a bit tacky or far too sexually revealing. As a result I only have two Sheryl figures.. in my collection Ranka out numbers her 4 to 1!

Rub it in David.. rub it in! hehe! but thanks mate! Im very happy indeed! and looking at the one I have now I can't figure out why I would have let it go in the first place!? Its so friggin awesome! So yep the same mistake made by both of us.. I'll never make that mistake again!

Set up the YF-30 which had originally been bought for my son for his birthday which we ended making a deal in favor of him getting an Xbox One instead.. I was more than happy to take an extra 30! Its nice having one in each mode now! And not to mention a lovely Iscandarian by the name of Yurisha arrived today too! running out of display space..

thought I'd post this in the correct section this time.. Just ordered these two lovely little ladies through NY! sweeeeeeeet!!! -
I know they are super expensive but for me they were worth every dollar! There are certain VF-1 that I would like doubles of to keep packed away, these included but the cost of doing so is rather prohibitive of course.. Thanks Mick! Oh David please.. im sure you have some pretty wonderful things of your own too! Thanks mate! Definitely a must for any serious collector! Thanks! Yeah it was starting to fry my brain a little waiting for them.. I bought them through the Japan Auction sites and all three from the same seller, all three auctions finished within minutes of each other and I paid for them all at the same time yet the seller sent them all separately and it took two weeks for them all to arrive.. The Super Ostrich arrived last and I was starting to get a little worried that it might never get to the forwarder! But thankfully they all did! Glad to hear that all of your items arrived to you safe & sound too! Thanks McFly! Well I certainly hope so! but im thinking my VF-1 collection has now hit a wall.. There isn't really anything else I need to get.. but there are others still coming for my Frontier collection and not to mention the VF-0A & S.. I'll still be tracking down the other two SV-51 types (Ivanov & CF) and I have a VF-1J custom which is being built which im also looking forward too seeing!

Oh yeah thats right eh.. they did lose the Ferrari license. Im kinda surprised Ferrari did that Unless Bburago and Maisto are going to significantly improve their build quality. -
Thanks guys!

yeah most AA are more expensive but not necessarily always better sadly. I was quite disappointed by their Signature Series Aventador.. -
yeah i was kinda panicking about the shoulders for a bit there but was prepared to accept it however it came.. there was no mention of their condition in the auction listing but thankfully they are both perfectly ok! Not even the faintest sign of stress or anything! Such a relief! I need more stands too! Haha! But not sure if Carlos has anything other than 4" available yet.. might go check. :/
