Yeah, EMS. It's expensive but I have peace of mind due to the tracking--at least I know it's stuck in customs!

Here's my review of the Ghost in the Shell bilingual edition: https://mechaspiritia.wordpress.com/2018/04/30/review-ghost-in-the-shell-bilingual-edition/ Summary: - It is an uncensored version - Has lighter coloring compared to Dark Horse version - Has smaller fonts (if you are concerned about readability) - Footnotes in Japanese only (it's in English in the Dark Horse version) So, for those who want a new copy of uncensored version, this is the one to get. It is already backordered at CDJ (http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/NEOBK-217032).

To my surprise HLJ shipped my HR VF1A today...But since I live in the 3rd world I'm most probably still getting it next week.

Avengers: Infinity War - in theaters April 27, 2018
hachi replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Just got back from my 2nd watch of the movie. Those missed chances, if you weren't aware of the comics, would be real heartbreakers. I thought it was good writing. I don't know if I have the will to watch a 3rd time, but damn, I really loved the action in this movie. -
Avengers: Infinity War - in theaters April 27, 2018

I was really relieved that I skipped on Apocalypse. I would have been really angry afterwards if I spent money on that movie. I enjoyed the previous movie though. It's also good in a way if you're not a comic fan. Some choices might leave you disappointed. I know I was even with the very first X-men movie (though that movie was just OK in my book, not great). Though I am more of an X-Men fan. I knew little about what the Avengers did before the movies, but I did know who most of them were. Heck, I even watched some of those old Thor and Captain America cartoons! I just can't find an original cut of Loki's hypnotizing sequence--that one was the funniest. So here's a mashup instead -
Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.
hachi replied to Gakken85's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
If I had a big house I'd have more toys...Unfortunately I spent a lot of my money on gadgets and travel in the first few years of my working life. I regret the gadgets, but I don't regret the travels. Also back then I didn't know the wonderful world of toy collecting via online shops. That's an awesome toy room! Good for you, you don't have kids. I don't have kids but I save for future responsibilities (aging parents, a nephew, my future self). I have some 'investments' but the stock market is kinda down right now. But it is an opportunity for buying. Unfortunately a lot of my budget goes to 'purchases' now -

Saw it on IMAX today--didn't really want IMAX but it was the only way I could reserve a seat quickly so I had to pay up. Else I was going to suffer standing in the lines, or worse, get spoiled if I failed to watch this weekend. Anyway it was great, Thanos was well presented. But I need a rewatch, hopefully the theaters won't be so full next weekend. -
I decided to check out the RG Tallgeese since it's release day today. But to my surprise it's now back-ordered at HLJ! T_T This was the note from HLJ: Bandai has announced that their shipments of the RG Tallgeese EW will be split between two deliveries, one in April and one in May. Please note that depending on when we received an order, it may be filled in either April or May. Decided to order hoping I might get into the May delivery. I did not pre-order beforehand because I only wanted to pay for 2 purchases this month. Lesson learned. So this time I pre-ordered the HG Leo just to make sure I get at least one. Now I'm gonna have to revise my budget for May, and June...I know it's available at other stores but I like to combine with other orders so I'm sticking with HLJ (and waiting for next payday).

Due to my excitement over watching Infinity War, I completely forgot it's golden week for Japan. I ordered the Hikky VF1A shipment (together with the NT-1 Gundam) and I only realized my boo-boo after. Guess I'll have to wait a little longer for my shiny new HMR ^_^;

Legend of Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These. Coming April 2018.
hachi replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Funimation simuldub cast: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-04-23/legend-of-the-galactic-heroes-die-neue-these-anime-english-dub-cast-revealed/.130748 Not really into dubs. Though I am curious how their voice acting would sound. -
It's an old email account I've been using since the middle ages. I used it for online shopping since I didn't want to clutter my Gmail account. Now I must seriously think of migrating my accounts one by one. That is, if the online stores allow me to.
-
Must be all those rea$on$ then
-
Why is this so expensive? I'm not familiar with Sentinel stuff though.
-
All these pictures make me want new kits! But I have to trim the backlog to get space for new ones

Legend of Galactic Heroes: Die Neue These. Coming April 2018.
hachi replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Just watched episode 3, it's getting better. I still had problems with character designs--Oberstein looks like a serial killer, Annerose's eyelashes, but the young Kircheis and Reinhard were an improvement over the old anime. Even though the old anime had great character designs, they couldn't do the child versions right lol -
Thanks guys. I'm back home now so I checked again. For the first time ever the notification emails went into the junk mail folder @_@ Maybe I should start migrating my accounts off Yahoo! email...
-
For people who ordered from HLJ, did you guys get private warehouse notification? (I havent logged in to HLJ though I'm on my phone, just curious)

I see more people have been sucked into the HMR line, down the rabbit hole you go folks! That said I may have to wait another week before shipping my HMR valk. I'm expecting my robot damashii release next week.
-
I wonder if it will be in stock on HLJ tomorrow.
-
Is NY already shipping the HMR VF-1A Super Valkyrie (Ichijo Hikaru Custom)? It says already in stock.
-
I'm just gonna collect the Gundam Wing RGs/HGs and then just build them whenever I like. The rest of the stuff thankfully I don't care much about them.
-
That's enabling and disabling at the same time
-
In retrospect, a CF was not really high in my HMR wishlist. But sh9000 has been buying every now and then and perhaps at the back of my mind I'm like, will there still be stock for me in case I change my mind and want one? He's enabling by example A bad influence on the wallet haha
-
LOL I didn't know the Obari pose was a thing. He has this Robot Soul artbook that I would like to buy some day (after my other wants are satisfied of course). I'm not that into super robots so pardon the ignorance. (Now I got pose ideas ) I'm totally looking forward to Voltes V FA. There are other SOCs I am probably interested in (ex. Gipsy Danger) but SOC prices are usually out of reach for me. My focus is on Macross toys and I have space problems anyway...

I'm hoping Bandai gets the licenses as they have more money.
