Didn't Neova say he was having supply difficulties and he didn't expect to have people their VF-0S until June? As far as eBay goes, look at the feedback and you'll be fine. If a person has 100% or close to it then you pretty much have nothing (other than factory flaws) to worry about. Ask the seller a few questions and see how promptly they respond and if you like the way they answer. There really is no reason to be afraid of eBay. I use it a lot and have scored many great deals from it. I sell on eBay occasionally, I am not a crook and don't really enjoy being lumped in with the few irresponsible dealers. The real crooks these days are eBay themselves who are making it less and less worth selling on.

This guy must love his Panasonic 3DO also.... Yeah, over-priced systems are the only way to go! I don't mind being left a couple years behind anyway, there's way too many great PS2 games I haven't played yet and I get so little time to play it'll take that long for me to catch up.

Lemme know if I'm alone but if i hit "View new posts" more than once per visit I get this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: clean_int_array() in /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/www/html/mwf/sources/search.php on line 83

PS3 = $599? Lemme think... yeah f*ckin' right. I'll buy this three years from now when it's down to $250 and I actually need a DVD player that can play blu-ray discs.

Here's a couple pics of mine: (And the display I'm most proud of)

Oh schnikeys, I didn't even notice that, I thought you bought it loose! Wow, now I'm even more jealous of your deal! As someone mentioned, you need to buckle the knees a bit in fighter mode for it to be transformed properly. There's a pic of mine somewhere on this forum... I'll find it later.

I think you have it a bit wrong Godzilla, the smaller and larger Gakkens do full transformations but they give up a lot of what the vehicle actually looks like in the show to accomplish it. The diecast toys, on the other hand, give up fighter mode to look a whole lot better in the two modes they do achieve. Unfortunately they're practically statues since they lack articulation. As far as toys go, they're not so hot, but they're cool little metal statues.

That is correct. It's the diecast one, 2 mode, it stands a bit smaller than the Toynami MPCs.

Yours cost $440 less than mine and mine isn't sparkling white by any means (yellowed where the box's window was). Sure, I got a pristine box and all the inserts to go with it but is that worth an extra $440??? You sir definitely found a deal. You go see if that guy has any property he wants to sell too.

I'm with you, I ordered mine with a Stealth, LVII, and GBPII, so I'm stuck in a holding pattern Looks like I'll be getting one of the June re-stock VF-0S... hopefully they're pretty solid.

A little tiddly bit - Once upon a time Toynami announced it was going to make Macross Saga superposeable destroids. There was no mention of a scale for the superposeables but I would guess they'd be much smaller than 1/55... perhaps 1/100? Toynami might already have molds to do 1/100 destroids.... or molds that might be adjusted to make them.

oh yeah, well I liked Yamato so much, I bought the company! I have my minions currently working on a VF-19 transformable figure that features an exact replica of my own head in battloid mode. Holy crap, how creepy would that be???

well indications seem to be good from the sellers as at least a couple are telling people they're going to have to wait for restocks and the preorders haven't even all been met yet. More likely though I think that tells us that Yamato ran into some problems meeting their production quota. Still, it can't be selling horribly.

This pic should show the difference. First pic is from the first 3000, second pic is from the next 12000. The vents were initially a brighter blue and were then toned down quite a bit.

Looks nice! The MPC Alphas are definitely beautiful toys... dont' play with the arms too much though or else they'll get too limp to hold the gun up in a hurry.

No lie, my friends and I were looking into making quality ghostbusters costumes and we quit when we saw just how crazy the prices could get. Instead we went with the cast of Pulp Fiction... it worked out nice

well, i'm sure your super ostrich is nicer than mine.... mine has a bit of yellowing that makes me sad So hard to find a snow white VT-1.

Very nice! The fast packs (in the other pics) don't really work in atmosphere, I like that non fast pack valk shot.

After tax, shipping, and all that good stuff, I spent $600 on a Bandai Elintseeker. I feel pretty good about it though, looks like it had been removed from the perfect box maybe once... ever. So nice and minty. I've spent $500 on a couple other classic Macross items also.

LOL, very nice!

Agreed, but the clip from the next episode makes it look like he gets busted. I think Libby is going to survive (although did someone post that my assumption here has been leaked out as being wrong?) and she's going to bust Michael? I think this means we can expect Michael's death in upcoming episodes. I don't think murderers are bound to live long on this island. I'm glad we won't be seeing a "AL is pregnant with Sawyer's kid" story...

The problem with that theory is that you would first kill the prisoner and then shoot yourself. It'd take a pretty idiotic guy to shoot himself first and then attempt to kill another person. Nope, I think he shot himself, gave the other the gun, then collapsed to the ground. Don't forget, Henry lied about pretty much everything. There's no reason to believe the others would have killed him or that he was there to pick up the cripple.

It would seem to me that he actually shot himself, gave Henry the gun, and then let Henry escape. Then when the group gets there they find Michael injured, Anna dead, and the other girl near dead. Michael will be undone when that other girl (he thinks is dead) is nursed back to health. That's my take on the ending there. Michael clearly has been manipulated, his child being used as bait, and his rhetoric being used to cause the beach crew to wander into the Others hands. I did like when Hurley said he was gonna get so drunk he'd remember where he knew the girl from and she looked scared. "oh that's right, we know each other because we were both crazy... how exactly are you a shrink???" Does it seem to anyone else that Jack's dad is a super major player in this whole mystery. A doctor with more going on than anybody knows about with connections all over the world and seems to have been in a position to know everyone on that airplane.

Wow, just noticed that all MPC prices have been slashed to $59.99 over at RT.com. Anyone looking for a Jack Archer or a Max Sterling, you won't be able to beat that price anywhere I've seen. In fact, a prudent investor might scoop up a bunch of those and sell 'em on eBay around xmas. I've already seen some MPC Maxs sell for over MSRP there...

Octopus Hi-Balls, they're available on the SDF-1 and the even advertise on the missiles.... (that was one of the animator jokes right?)
