    Hi-Metal R

    Anyone missed out in getting Silvie's VF-2ss at a reasonable price? Here's your chance. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=116&cat=388&vw=nk Isn't too late to request the rest of Faerie Squadron after Nexx is issued?
  2. I've seen review of the NX-74205 on YouTube and not surprisingly that some of the paint details are muted as compared to the smaller version. For a larger scale of any Starfleet ships, you wish that Eaglemoss would put a little more paint detail to the XL line? Nope... Got to do it yourself.

    What HMR release that Bandai want to release is anyone's guess after Nexx's VF-2ss. A fair amount of us collectors want to continue the destroids [Tomahawk and Phalanx] and the enemy mecha [N-gers, and Q-rau/Q-rare (I know that the Q-rare is more Frontier based]. A VF-1D would be a good release in between the destroids and the enemy mecha.
  4. Missed the boat in posting this. http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/21/photos-and-info-for-the-game-of-thrones-season-7-tyrion-lannister-1-6-scale-figure-314234#images Heard that there was mixed reviews on Threezero figures...
  5. @sh9000: Let me guess... The HMR VF-1J with the GBP is the one from Jungle I take it? The wrapping is the dead give a way. All the stuff that I get from Jungle has the double sleeve on the outer packaging box and you got also the same as well. @Decker: The 1/55 VT-1 is the highlight in your collection for me compared to the other 3 HMRs.
  6. Just came in as I'm cleaning up my bedroom. Note: Also clearing out both the bubble and paper wrap that I've collected over the years of delivery from Manda, Amiami and Jungle. I shouldn't be saving it anyways, but should you need some packing material, no need to go out buy them as you have it stored away.

    You can order one from Amazon or get one from your local hobby shop that sells gunpla, model paint, etc (if they carry it). Make sure that the table top can easy rotate without any issues.
  8. I believe CD Japan use a proxy service for any valks that have been fully pre-ordered after the first round and the second order was offered later on (such as the case for the DX YF-19). Edit: As for which proxy services they use, I don't have a clue which one they use.

    Try this thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/45147-decals-library/.
  10. Just up on a few websites: Amiami: Supers for Mirage - https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=FIGURE-038852-R Manda: Arad up for 22k yen (I think that this has been up for awhile?) - https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1094619954&ref=list
  11. I'm doing the best of posting whatever I can find in regards to upcoming 1/6th stuff, however I'm in the middle of hopefully finding a 1/6th scaled horse for my pre-ordered figure to be released this month or next (depending in the final delivery date). Two HT pre-orders up as of this week: http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/13/black-panther-shuri-1-6-scale-figure-by-hot-toys-313379 http://news.toyark.com/2018/08/13/black-panther-wakanda-throne-by-hot-toys-313365

    Hi-Metal R

    Here's the corresponding vid for this since you have Hikaru and Minmay together.
  13. Crap... Looking at the pic that @tekeringhas posted, I wonder if the TIE Interceptor will possibly get reissued? They did so many versions of it during the years, why not an updated version?

    Macross figures

    This is the one that @no3Ljm has posted on the other page on July 29th (first pic on the Bandpresto Craneking EXQ). There's something about the eye's that make it too lifelike. Edit: I might be interested in this other than the Freja "Noodle Topper" version.
  15. Call me stupid... I literally just remembered this (don't know if you did read this in conjunction @ShadowVFX?) http://www.macrossworld.com/why-are-arcadia-products-so-expensive-by-mr-k/
  16. Just be fair... The SV-262Hs add on is available on Manda (last unit). https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1071422130&ref=dos It's going to be quite sometime before we even hear a peep of the Elvis or the Ba variant (including Mirage's version).
  17. Do we need to bring this article up again? I think so... https://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2017/09/08/arcadia-talks-about-how-it-makes-the-best-macross-and-megazone-23-toys-out-there/#2346e8c2e974 Don't forget that Bandai has been doing other stuff besides Macross for many years like what @treatmenthas mentioned.
  18. That's the Hot Toys and Herocross joint collaboration of the Limited Issue of Darth Vader (from the regular version with the crappy stand). Their Fett has the lighted up Mandalore Skull Logo (just look out for the rocket booster thrusters if you should get it as it has the thrusters are not attached securely to rocket pack. Edit: I believe that Hot Toys does own Herocross (just another another sister product). When you go onto Jungle and click on the Hot Toys selection, Herocross pops out on that list.

    I believe that this is done by default to make sure that you don't screw up your shipping method as I got the same email of payment last night. Switched back to EMS and waiting for the correction notice (I actually had this notice when I ordered my Arcadia VF-1s Strike Roy and my DX VF-171EX Alto).
  20. Double Manda delivery day! Sapporo: Robot Chogokin Mazinkaiser (Colour Z version) to go with my Max Factory version. Kokura: Herocross Darth Vader (Limited Edition - Imperial light up base) and Banpresto Flight Suit Mirage (used my 980 yen credit). Note: Used the SAL option for the two purchases. Almost a month from start to finish for the Mazinkaiser to be delivered.

    Hi-Metal R

    I used SAL small packet for my VF-31c from Amiami and it took a month and a day from the post of exchange port to my house in YVR. I guess where the place of your residence might have a say in it and how long it takes to fill up the shipping crate as well.

    Hi-Metal R

    That will be the Mountian Hoilday (Obon). @Alex GS is right that the next business day is Thursday.
  23. You forgot to mention Manda as well.. Their packing methods are also very good. If the outer boxes can take a beating and leave the inside product safe, then I'm good. That's one of my pet peeves. It takes umpteen hours to so call "bullet proof" the packaging and they sent it out weeks later and you paid by using EMS and not snail mail. I get that some may go the snail mail just to save on shipping costs, however pricer items are better off going EMS.

    Orders for the HMR Super O are opened up at AmiAmi. For those how have pre-ordered already from there way back (myself included), hopefully that they will send you the notices of payment soon. Note: I know that you can edit your shipping options; however, it says this in asterisks: *** Our store reserves the right to modify the shipping method and/or payment method of orders at our discretion. *** Edit: Already did change the shipping to EMS from SAL a minute ago. Not going to risk loosing this order. If you want to change it, change it now before they send you the billing notice. Here's the email reply: PLEASE NOTE: A new invoice will be sent for in-stock orders that have been modified. These orders will not be available for payment until a new invoice has been sent during our business hours. We ask for your patience and understanding.
