Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices
Kanedas Bike replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
^saw that earlier but decided to pass. Really upset that someone not named Kanedas Bike got this one though; http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1472135.html $ 90 is an absolute steal! -b. -
LOL - was waiting for the reaction! I honestly didn't think I'd like this as much as I do (or at all really once I started seeing pictures) but I agree the overall scheme is very nice with Isamu's custom as a close 2nd. I probably won't get the Super Parts, the only 29 Super's I've ordered are those for Isamu. Side note, I had (2) at N-Y but let them cancel (before the whole short supply incident) and picked up my (1) via Hobby Search. -b.

Yeah, the (beautiful as always) pictures Saburo posted do give off that impression. But side-by-side not so much, the Ozma 25S Armor Parts are like a dark blue/green tint vs. the dark grey/charcoal of the Ozma 29. -b.

Ok, went ahead and opened mine. The first thing that stood out (besides the very annoying mis-transformation with one of the legs and arms) was how much darker the grey is in person. I'm sure it's a combination of lighting, camera flash and my monitor settings but this Valk is pretty dark - enough so that the dark canopy kind of makes sense (I still don't like it, and will probably work up the nerve to remove the blue as well). Also held it up to the 25A/S Gunpod and while this one didn't need to be that exact color, some dark shade of metallic grey or silver would have made a nice difference. Glad I made the purchase and opened her up. -b.

My Ozma 29 showed up today (USPS caught me as I was leaving the house), it's still in the shipping box in the trunk of my car... -b.

The Transformers Thread (licensed) Next
Kanedas Bike replied to mikeszekely's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Really digging the new pics of Ultra Magnus and to an extent Bumblebee. The Dinobot designs from TF4 look like something that escaped from Bionicle - very easy to continue to pass on every Bay Transformer release (besides DMK Prime and Bee). -b.- 16946 replies

AKIRA LIVE ACTION MOVIE = Life Support?
Kanedas Bike replied to Macross007's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Heeeeyyyyyy, I'm live action... -b. -
Still meh, the Bat Suit looks too much like Superman's underwear suit. I really like the direction that Nolan and the Arkham video games took Batman, in that function > form. I'm also curious to see the other Justice League members and how they'll appear. It's too bad DC didn't release, in order; Man of Steel Batman Wonder Woman Justice League Instead of making the Man of Steel sequel a pseudo-Justice League prequel. -b.
-
Yep, that or; Not that it's a bad thing but in my estimation there are a lot of vibes from previous Whedon shows, Firefly, Buffy, Angel, etc. I'm really excited to see the show progress and I'm overwhelmingly happy that the show isn't on Fox (regardless of the Disney/ABC ownership angle). -b.

Whoops! Sorry, I misunderstood the original post, thanks for the correction/clarification. Gotcha, that makes sense. And it would be SO awesome if they made this stuff web exclusive, at this point it really is easier to get items. -b.
-
Cool, don't blame you. Even those sets that I see as new/sealed/unopened on Mandarake or Jungle don't always have the brown mailer box. -b.
-
That was a really good season finale, just enough closure and "what will happen next" to keep me interested. And coming soon (or before the series completes a full/uninterrupted run); -b.

Then how do you explain the post about local brick and mortar stores (Kotobukiya) limiting purchases to 3? Is that normal? Edit to add... or The mark-ups on Yahoo Japan that have also been reported. I'm not saying there is no scalping involved, even with N-Y playing a roll with how they mark up during these "rounds" of pre-orders. I firmly believe that stock from Bandai is limited and N-Y along with others didn't get the allotment of stock ordered and/or expected as shown by the inflated prices and limited quantities available. -b.

Very cool - that clear canopy looks awesome. Nice job Duymon! I'm not N-Y's biggest fan, but I'm not sure this is all on them. Besides their complete inability to get orders out in the order that they are paid this smacks of Bandai shorting production. Good luck to everyone who has an order for this thru them. -b.

Sorry, I'm allergic to SAL. -b.

Wish I could find my order confirmation, but I know I paid less for my Renewal 25S Super Parts. Please keep in mind that this soon after they were released. IMO $ 99 is relatively cheap compared to how much the Super and Armor parts for the 25F are going for now. -b.

Like the ears, like the textured look, don't like that it looks rubber and I actually liked the more functional form and function of the Dark Knight/Rises Bat-Suit. The canopy of the Bat-Mobile looks OK, but I reserve the right to rage or gush once a full view is available. -b.

Macross Collectibles Market Watch - Current Auction/Store SOLD prices
Kanedas Bike replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
Maybe the thought is that Mandarake inspects the items first, I dunno. But I'm a little surprised to see them go so fast when the 19 is still available at places like HLJ and AmiAmi. And oh yeah, this went like lighting too; http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1486513.html The good thing is that the price seems to have held steady (I purchased my RVF 25 Super Parts from there a couple of months ago at about the same price). -b. -

Kanedas Bike replied to jvmacross's topic in Toys
Arcadia's YF-19's seem to be holding most of their value and going fast on Mandarake; http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1356898.html http://ekizo.mandarake.co.jp/shop/en/item_s-1502928.html *both show sold out -b. -
