    Max IS the main character as far as I'm concerned.

    That armored set is making me drool

    Macross figures

    Slave IV replied to CF18's topic in Toys

    My second choice would have been Sivil. I think Figma already has enough similar molds to make an amazing one. But I had to use my vote for a non Macross related figure...Jubei Kibagami. For humanoid figures, I need the entire Ninja Scroll roster in my life WAY more than anything. Valks and Mechs are my preferred Macross toys but yeah, I wouldn't pass on Minmei, Max or Milia Figmas.

    Tomahawk looks pretty good...I liked M.U.S.C.L.E figures back in the day but have no need for these.

    Lek is the man!

    Got it! For some reason I thought you were comparing the HM Roy strike pictured and the HMR version.
  7. Slave IV
    Your HMR Roy Strike came with shoulder covers? I thought they didn't include those until later releases.

    Good point about the profit threshold for good service. I guess for something that cost a couple hundred dollars, it must have had some sort of tracking so as long as they can show it was sent, they technically did their job. Really sucks when things like that happen.

    That sounds like a very odd situation with TheChosenPrime...As you say, they go out of their way to provide good customer service. Must be something they are willing to do to help.

    That is a terrible situation and seems like it's possible the insurance situation is complicated since Japan Post did nothing wrong either. Would be interesting to look into the exact details and policies regarding that. I'm not big on insurance but if you pay for it, it should cover you. If you did want to risk severing the relationship with NY and used a credit card or bank account through PayPal (highly recommend), you can still file a claim through the cc or bank account and most likely get your money back.

    Looks fantastic! One thing you just can't overcome is the sticker outlines but I don't think PF will include panel lining.
  12. Slave IV
    I open at least one right away when I can. But yeah, HMR has broke me pretty badly.
  13. Slave IV
    Yep, I wish I could afford another set of all my MP/3P Transformers and Valks to send to him for treatment.
  14. Slave IV
    Yep, a collection of all the various valks in HMR form will be much more manageable and affordable but still wallet busting, lol. They did M7 valks in the previous line so I think the possibilities are there.

    Easy mistake, I always forget too...The GBP HMR is fantastic! It's so good the way they made the armor attach to the figure. Highly recommended!

    I think you are refering to the old Daca Toys Skyfire that isn't the best toy ever. The one pictured, I'm pretty sure is the Fans Toys, which probably isn't the best toy ever either but should be a hell of a lot better than the one you were thinking of.
  17. Slave IV
    They already started. The VF-2SS is out.
  18. Slave IV
    Seems kinda tall. And that Slag, extremely short. Anyways, nice collection!
  19. Slave IV
    Yep, HMR is pretty much my favorite toy line right now.

    Well said! Masters of the Universe toys was the first time I encountered someone keeping thir toy MISB and whenever I think about in later years, I totally understand why. These days, most box art is as you say, just photos of the toy but the Hi-Metal R line is doing a great job of giving us incerdible box art again.

    To apply the entire sticker sheet and have it look anywhere near as good as the tampo job would take more than a few hours. I don't know about some people but a few hours is worth more than around $100 to me these days. But again, for the most part, I don't care about the stickers or additional tampos.
  22. Slave IV
    I absolutely agree that it's satisfying and you can get even better results customizing yourself. Thing is, the time it takes factored in with the additional cost of the PF versions, it makes more sense to just pay for the PF in my case because I don't have the time these days. Most the valks so far, I don't really care enough to pay extra for PF. With the 0S, I wanted another anyways so if that's all they have to offer, so be it. Plus this:
