Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
Let me rephrase ... I don't want to remove the streaks, just complete them. -
Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
Ok, after seeing this screenshot I rescind half of my rant. The splotches are anime accurate. But the streaking (coming from the vents) should connect to the source, which makes logical sense. Any suggestions what I can use to clean those up, and fill the unpainted gaps on my figure? -
Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
My toy arrived, two months to the day. It appears intact. I am less than overwhelmed by the customized weathering. You can spot incomplete brushstrokes and other minor imperfections. Has anyone else seen this? I get the impression YMMV on each piece. Otherwise, it's a gorgeous toy, and a substantial improvement over the first release. -

My ship left port on July 3. I expect it needs to loop around the planet a couple of times before it makes landfall. -

Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
Where are you located, and when did your order leave port? I have a VF-0D coming from NY on a ferry and it left port on July 3. Boat still hasn't reached CA. -

Calibre Wings 1/72 F-14D Diecast Macross Custom
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to seti88's topic in Toys
I was about 24 hours late on the discount cut off, yet Cally honored it and sent me an invoice the next day. Shipping is rather spendy ($25), but what the heck. If it is half as amazing as the press photos show it's worth it.- 498 replies

My toy purchased from NY (ferry shipping) is outward bound. Any guesses as to how long it takes to reach me? I'm in Seattle, WA (8,281 km) -

Arcadia 1/60 VE-1 Elintseeker Premium Finish
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Shizuka the Cat's topic in Toys
I was checking out my Elintseeker in my display case, and noticed the very obvious exposed screw on the antenna array. I dug through the box and discovered a tiny strip of stickers with round, grey stickers. Can I assume these are specifically included for covering exposed screws (btw, how many are there)? Or, are the stickers for something else? -
Arcadia 1/60 Perfect Transformation VF-0D for 2015
funkymonkeyjavajunky replied to Dark_Ghost's topic in Toys
So, NY is the only sane option available for buying this toy (HLJ has it for $500). Given the shipping limitations (no EMS or airmail), what are my options? Is UPS the cheapest? -

Ok, this toy looks GORGEOUS. But, $400 (before adding shipping)?? How does anyone justify the cost?
