Slave IV

Hay spanner or anyone else...Any input/advice about the 1:18 GT Spirit 993 911 Turbos? Those are the only ones I can find for the 993 911 Turbo and I don't know anything about GT Spirit. Thanks!

Taking notes on places to loot... jk

Yep! As good as the other ones are, I'm pretty sure I'll like the Sentinel version more. I'll pay their prices happily for it too.

What?! I want this too!

I've heard about all the previous releases but never was able to get any. I love Sentinel so I'm kinda glad I missed all the others and I'm sure I'll be very happy with this upcoming release. I'll probably get the Figma version too.

Finally made it over to this thread. The announcement of the Sentinel Ride Armor is the best news I've heard since about 1984. I almost don't care about any other releases and just want this now. Sentinel usually makes repaints/retools so I would be amazed if we don't see variants after the initial release.

I'm talking about this one:

I'm not here to take pot shots and I don't care where people buy from. Again, I have done my own comparisons and for me, NY is about the same and sometimes cheaper than HLJ for shipping. YMMV.

I compared shipping prices for the same items for NY, HLJ, AE and amiami...HLJ was usually cheapest but NY was right there with them on most items and even cheaper for some. Works for me.

Good point! A couple years ago they were bad with pricing but then got really good...they now consistently have the lowest prices and that's what matter most to a like of people (me included). They might be getting a lot more business than they used to and need time for adjustment. It's all good with me because again, I don't care when my items arrive as long as they arrive. I just want the lowest prices.

Anyone mesing with this crew is in for a world of hurt.

That looks mighty swell!

Yeah, I was pretty much over Mafex based on their other releases but this Kylo Ren has won me over and I'll still be keeping my eye on their releases because of it. I have ROTJ Boba Fett and that seems to be better than previous releases but still not great...this Kylo is a step up from Boba and definitely on the same level or even beter than SHF in this one case. I'm actually wondering about the Sandtrooper now because I haven't put together my Bandai kit version yet.

Yeah...these things are years in the making. I don't care if it takes weeks or even months to get to me. Mine are still in preparation at NY too and I'm fine with it.

Nice! I'm waiting for the classic comic version. How do you like the weapons it comes with? Are the gimmicks worthy or just "gimmicks"? I haven't had time to take any pics lately but I had to get a couple quick shots of Mafex Kylo Ren to see how the scarf turned out in my pics: The promo pics of the scarf were really bugging me and that along with Mafex's poor reputation made me almost regret ordering this figure. Having it in hand completely changed my mind and it looks amazing. The best 1/12 Kylo Ren figure for sure. The molded scarf material doesn't like lights in photos and comes off not as good looking (in the promo pics, it looks like a cheap fisher price molded blob) but in person, it looks real and matched almost perfectly with the cloth. If anything, it looks better than the real cloth. Also, check out the detail molded in the eyes! I'll be boxing up my Black Series versions and the only reason I want to open my SHF version now is to use the lightsaber with this figure...it's the only part I think SHF did a better job on.

I like the clear version better than the regular one...Too bad it's so expensive.

Figuarts are only MCU style, Re:Edit are comic style except that last one and they are definitely a step or two above SHF figures. Well worth it!

They don't look like individual removeable missiles to me. I have no problem with the color of any of it. Look forward to getting mine.

That looks fantascic MJ! I'm going to have to get some of those when I get my new shelves. I love the one I have in my detolf.

Yeah, the new Macross announcement was a given and the point of the original post about it...others were hoping for Garland announcement so I noted that it was mntioned in the translation. Looking forward to hearing about it all!

Yeah, I'm buying all the figuarts already so I can just make those figures do the same pose if needed.

Translation mentions Garland and Mazinkaiser.

Ya, all good. I just figure in the scheme of things, these are just toys. Really cool toys but it really doesn't matter if I get them sooner or later...I just enjoy them when they arrive. I hope I was never gyped and never received something I paid for but I have no idea, lol. Things just showup on my doorstep regularly and it's like Christmas.

Every right sure...just saying what I would do. Anyways, no big deal to me and just chiming in because it seemed like people want responses about their concerns from NY and other posters here.

Or, just sit back, relax and wait for it to arrive. I doubt they are sitting on your items, purposely messing with you by not shipping them. Sometimes things happen and other things get delayed. If you do contact them, definitely be polite about it but if I was working there, it would just be annoying to get messages about something already on the to-do list especially if the delay is because they are busy and reading more messages takes up even more time they could spend actually doing the things people are asking for. Again, if it's been an issue where you never got something from them and it's ruining your life by not having a figure right away, cool. Just saying...
