I didn't quit collecting but I did quit over-collecting. I used to buy any Bandai Macross thing in multiples whether I liked it or not, just because it was Macross because I'm so used to the Macross Drought from mid 1980's --> mid 2000's. It was addicting and very financially taxing. Macross Delta wasn't my cup of tea + the valks are way too expensive so it was easier to quit the Macross Addiction. I also sold off everything in storage because if it isn't being displayed it's not worth having. It was surprising how much money was spent. All the money went into my Retirement accounts right away so that it was locked away and I wasn't tempted to start collecting something else with the windfall. Now I am strict about my collection. If I don't have space for it I don't buy it and if I want it badly enough I'll need to sell or give something away to make space for it. It's really made me trim down my collection to what I actually love / can't live without and I think it's way healthier than it used to be.

Why Bandai? Why torture us with more P-Bandai? I could deal with it if the TR-1 regular was a normal release and the titans was P-Bandai... but both P-Bandai when the kit is like 85% new is crap
-
I would be totally into this if I didn't already in the past collect.... 1/60 VF-1 V1 1/48 VF-1 1/60 VF-1 V2 Hi-metal VF-1 Hi-metal R VF-1 ...... too any VF-1's :0
-
Happy to see the TR-6, but would be even better if it were in MG
-
Working on my next model. Gundam Origins Real Type color hehehe. Just need those freaking decals to come in
-
Yeah if it's just a repaint with no molding changes I could easily pass , despite all the weapons
-
Not interested at all in Nexx. I have 2x VF-2ss so I'll just grab the masking tape and airbrush and turn the stripes blue on one
-
Welp.. now I'm happy I sold off my Macross Delta Stuff. Much better stuff is on the way
-
not really into the movie set since I can just paint my TV ingrams to look like the movie ver and just strip the black form Unit 2 I already got
-
P-Bandai Hazel titan's color announced. It makes sense that a total recolor is a P-Bandai... EXCEPT WHEN THE BASE KIT IS 80% NEW STUFF AND WAS ALSO P-BANDAI. Bandai.. why? ]
-
I really hope the line does well because then my macross and gundams will all be in-scale
-
I dunno what it is. I was so hyped for the VF-31A and now that I have the funds and can buy multiples I ... just don't feel the need to anymore... All the Master Grade Gundam 0080 and MSV crap I always wanted as a kid suddenly being released might have something to do with it... *shrug* I guess Passion for a series really does affect purchasing decisions
-
Playing Odyssey. ProZD def sums up my feelings in this one
-
http://www.bandaionline.com/ has been a great resource for me. non retarded shipping and they have a lot of P-bandai crap I want.

I bought an Iwata Eclipse HP-CS and an Iwata Sprint IS-800 bundle off Ebay for $200 which is an insane deal. Considering how easy it is to use Vallejo Air and Ammo Mig paints I would never bother with the Gundam Airbrush system since it just seems like a PITA.
-
No Worry guys! Even though my order has been Prep in progress since 10/26 THEY ARE TAKING NEW ORDERS STILL :0 https://www.nippon-yasan.com/20754-macross-delta-super-parts-set-for-dx-chogokin-vf-31f-siegfried-messer-ihlefeld-custom-limited-edition.html

There's been an update on the Gundam Airbrush System. SO apparently you can't just throw any marker up there and spray, you need to replace the tip/core of markers you want to use on the airbrush with the special ones provided in the set. Base set has 3 cores and you have to buy additional cores for all the other markers you wish to use. It costs 270 yen to get 6 cores, so basically 45 yen to add airbrush functionality to any gundam marker. Still not 100% sure I'd be up for this. Gundam Mecha color from Vallejo has been so easy to use on my Iwata and I feel weird spraying color onto unprimed surfaces :0

Even Bandai realizes they're releasing a lot of P-Bandai Jegans Buy a P-Bandai Jegan within the time period and get a free Jegan Decal Sheet https://www.gundamkitscollection.com/2017/10/thanks-jegan-campaign-announced-by.html WHERE IS MY 1/100 JEGAN BANDAI? gaaaah if it can't stand next to my MG UNicorn and Nu Gundam ver ka I don't want it.
-
jesus christ that's what feels like the millionth p bandai jegan. where is our 1/100 re-100 or MG Jegan FFS
-
so messed up NY hasn't shipped out so many messer parts, mine included
-
OMG what a tease on that arad......
-
Considering they already have macross gals at the same scale to this valk they need to make a Ranka Concert ver from the 2nd movie so that people can do this
-
If anyone's wonder how Vallejo mecha color line is it's pretty darned good. Colors look to be pretty on-point and they are pre-thinned so can be given a good shake and then dripped straight into the airbrush from the dropper bottles. As soon as I run to the store and replenish my pledge / future gonna gloss coat this custom MG RX-78 Origins - Titans ver and then do the panel lining and decals hehe
-
Considering they've pretty much copied all the panel lines off the hase 1/72 Maybe they'll copy the crooked leg in naked fighter mode. I mean, they already copied the Hase-zombie SDF-1 TV version amirite?
-
welp. got my 1st VF-31A. Honestly tempted to keep it at one because I need to make funds for the Sentinel Stick and Rei ride armors :0
