That looks mighty fine! -
Be very careful with that thought as it is definitely not always the case.

NP! I don’t get caught up worrying about something happening to my packages in the 21st century. If something happens and the shipper won’t help me, I always pay by credit card and I know they will help me so again, no worries.
-
Done. Easy peasy!
-
I always go for the cheapest shipping whatever that is.
-
Yep, time to wait for NY as usual. Good thing is no one seems sold out yet so it should be relatively easy to get.
-
CDJ with shipping is under 14000...
-
Geez, 14,000 at HLJ...
-
I don’t pay attention at all. I place orders, they show up at my door someday. I’m happy.

I’d take a VHT-1 Hovertank

Oh man, I thought that was a pic of your DX and I was about to declare you the best photographer and customizer of all time!

The Kai I got from NY last year came with the shipper box. which 31 are you talking about at that price? That’s basically retail price so if it is in mint or near mint, it’s probably worth it.

Haha, I just did the same. Added that MCU Red Skull to my order for the heck of it. -

I feel like Bandai already has a direct lifeline injected into me, draining my life in exchange for plastic crack. -
Or 30,000 for a new one from NY...

I normally don’t buy HW 3 packs but impulse bought these today mainly for the Porsche and Mclaren but the muscle cars are a nice bonus.

Nice! Is Great Mazinger extending up past the next shelf? Kinda looks like it shouldn’t fit back there unless the shelf is open at the back for it to pass through.

Yeah, probably not worth the cost if you plan on moving soon. If you own and plan to sell on the other hand, might be worth the investment. Good point about carpet possibly breaking up and creating more dust. Main point is, a good sealed cabinet helps to protect your collection. My details is full of dust, my billy with glass doors and no seal is pretty dust free.

Again, all good. Different tastes are common. To me, even the worst of this line are better than the best of other company attempts. Only Cap is really off to me lookswise but it comes with nice options and accessories. -

Yep, whatever floats whoever’s boat. I collect almost any and all Marvel comic style figures and am happy to have the options. Personally, I prefer better quality figures than Hasbro has to offer but Hasbro gives me the variety I don’t get from other options. Good thing to me is they all look great together. For the AY line, Carnage, Spider-Gwen, Deadpool and Spider-Man are the top four with Cap and Venom being the lowest. Still, AY Venom is way better than any ML version ever made. Cap loses points because it doesn’t look like any style I really like. Interesting @sh9000 you say AY figures look off when posed...I find it to be the opposite. They are designed to be posed with extreme “action” in mind and it’s easy to hide the joints when you do so. When you handle one of the figures, it is very apparent that the designers had all of this in mind and purposely made joints a certain way so you can pose away with ways to hide joints designed into it. It’s when they are standing statically, it is harder to deal with because they are designed to be in action poses, not standing straight. MLS on the other hand, often look terrible when posed extremely because the sculpted detail is all misaligned and often restricting articulation altogether. Anyways, like I said, I like them all for what they are and I’m really happy other companies are offering options. -

True! Other than the “even less worth getting” part. It’s the best line in comic style toys ever...every one of them is worth getting, IMO. I think there are only 8 at this point. -
Carpet is filthy so yeah, I definitely recommend anything else but I can tell you I have all wood floors in my house and things still get dusty so it's not an issue of carpets. Dust comes from people, the the air all around and outside so it depends more on your area and how much activity in in your house. Carpet will just collect dust but won't create it.

Kairos color on Chronos would be ideal. Great pics all around! -
Beautiful collection!

Haha, Macross is my biggest focus in collecting and you worded it perfectly, "joy and destitution" sums it up! But Disney has me by the balls. Macross is my favorite anime series of all time but Marvel and Star Wars are my all time favorite franchises and they break me! Doesn't help when there are figures this good being released for them. If you don't have a strong passion for it, I say it's best to stay away because if you start dipping in, you will get sucked in to another rabbit hole!
