  1. Man, I love those things! At least the official/original version but I doubt that was much better than any of the copies or KOs like the one you got. Not a great quality toy but so much fun for a little kid back in the day because it still transforms and is small and light enough to take anywhere. Imagination does the rest!
  2. Nice! I don't really play any instruments anymore (or ever, since I was a kid) but definitely have appreciation for musical talent. I can't really contribute much there as musical instruments is one thing I don't have a vast collection of. Unless you want me to share my kid's music toys or my vintage Yamaha keyboard, lol.
  3. Yeah, it’s definitely fun times. I took my kid to a couple shows early on but started worrying about their ears and haven’t been much since. I think I was able to get out on my own like once or twice.
  4. Seriously though. The Fighter mode is a work of art and worth it for that alone. I haven’t decided if I will get the PF as well or not yet but I have a regular ordered. My friends that know Macross and transforming toys very well see it and ask if it actually transforms.
  5. Snake Eyes is one of my top two all time characters as far as how many figures I collect. I wasn’t too impressed with these Classified figure reveals because of the styles they went with but as soon as I saw the package and opened it, this figure has won me over. I’m still not going to get some of the other figures but this is the best Snake Eyes figure ever made by far and I’m pretty happy with it. It just took over top shelf in the one display I have set up and that hasn’t happened since I moved. I think I mentioned recently that my CD collection is almost as large as my comic book collection. I used to go to all the record stores around more than once a week and buy hundreds of dollars worth of cds every time. Damn, I had a lot of dispensable income when I was single, lol! I don’t ever keep my cds in any sort of order as they always just end up wherever they end up and I like that because it lets me come across different ones and listen to a variety that I wouldn’t necessarily get if I just searched in some kind of order. Funny thing about Korn is one of the guys in our group (I can’t go so far as to call him my friend) used to claim he “discovered” Korn and basically shoved them down our throats constantly. I mean, they can be entertaining but that was the source of that cd. DMX ironically came as a B-Day present from a good friend of mine who was the connection to the delusional “talent scout”. I think I’ve only listened to that cd once since I was never a fan of DMX but I did want to revisit it sometime so I’m glad you guys noticed it for me. Ah, those were the days. Live shows are so much fun, especially when you are hanging with the artists. I can’t even remember the last show I went to where I didn’t have backstage access.
  6. Seriously. There is always talk about the best Valks and of course the newer versions are technically better in some ways. But the original Chunky is still what I consider the best toy ever made. Period.
  7. Oh man...I'm's in lubs. I thought I would want the regular version with the weapons from here but f all that, this thing is beautiful!
  8. I finally got my first GI Joe Classified figure! I was very surprised to feel the shipping box it came in and thought they might have sent other stuff with it but that is unlike Hasbro Pulse. Well, I was wrong...the box is huge and super premium feeling. Nicely done Hasbro! And I don’t praise them very often.
  9. Ah, I didn’t remember that part about Hayate. Anyways, just messing around and carry on with the pilot name ideas! But for me, I don’t care what it says, which is what started this craze, lol!
  10. Yeah, I knew I saw you had one so just had to remind you I guess.
  11. Haha, they have the Macross logo but yeah...
  12. I know you got your answer and want this deleted but there are the current KC Valks that are not models and 1/72.
  13. Haha, not what you would have expected huh? I don't think Sgts. get flight duty clearance but hey, it's our own fantasy so wth right? On another note, I unexpectedly had to go to the office so I grabbed my missile sets while I was there. Looks like I will be getting to play some DX VF-1 pew pew soon!
  14. Oh that's a bummer for sure! Madarake would not let that slide without noting it. But for you, it seems like NBD based on how you plan to display it.
  15. Hahaha, what have I started? As for my original post to clarify...I saw the post about Kakizaki’s Valk having the wrong prints and was reminding people who were complaining that it comes with the decal sheet. Obviously for those who want the Valk. I said the decal sheet comes with the Valk, not the other way around, lol! For those who don’t want it, of course the fine and kind services of @Anasazi37 make a lot more sense. Maybe everyone can eventually get whatever Captain they wish on the side of their cockpits too?
  16. Haha, the next Macross series coming to screens everywhere soon!
  17. Haha, I'm just glad that I wouldn't care if each panel had a completely different number or no number. Makes no difference in the enjoyment I get out of my toys. Other than the times when I'm specifically trying to read some of the details, I never even notice what any of them say. I'm always enjoying how cool my toys look overall, transforming them, posing them and swooshing them around. If the tiny print by the side of the cockpit said "Capt. Jack Sparrow" or Captain Crunch", so what? But yeah, I also get that it would be just as easy to get it all right but who and what is right anyways?
  18. Remember...Kakizaki's 1A was shown to come with a decal sheet for those who can't tolerate backwards numbers that you don't even see 90%+ of the time you own the figure.
  19. Haha, HLJ's site is a joke since they "upgraded it". Right now, not only is AJ a solid option, it should be the cheapest (pretty sure it is as far as I've seen) and one of the fastest options.
  20. Yeah, too early to think about it yet but I just checked and it still says dispatched. If it's on the same pace as my last ferry shipments, I'll expect it end of Sept. Anything sooner will be a nice surprise.
  21. Haha, yup!
  22. Thanks! These things are like mining for gold!
  23. Thanks for the update @sqidd! Congrats to @ChaoticYeti for his job and selfishly saying I hope he is able to open up the Yeti Shop someday.
