  1. Awesome as always, @Saburo!
  2. @Lolicon is one of the best who does great job panelining his Valks. Though I'm not sure if he has a dedicated thread in the Workshop section. Would be nice if he has one because his white landing gear on DX Valks are one of the best. And I also love his panelining. The other person you can check out is @wm cheng. He has his thread posted in the Workshop section with links to his finished work. Hope that helps.
  3. 'Ohba-san' is mad again? Hikaru really has a way with the ladies.
  4. I think it's this one. Photo from @jenius Anymoon site. Thanks for sharing this, @tekering. And love the photos posted above too.
  5. Some members post stuff like that here:
  6. My initial plan are just DYRL's since I'm just getting Hikaru's white VF-1 units. That way, color-wise Bandai have same whether it's DYRL or TV compared to the white differences from Yamato and Arcadia. And since NY messed up on my set of SSP, I placed an order for a TV SSP set so I'll have a backup. But if Bandai will going to release 1A bundled with Super Pack, then I'm good again for consistency sake.
  7. Welcome to MWF! Nice! Btw, you forgot to push the legs upward for Battroid mode to hide the metal swivel used for Gerwalk mode.
  8. The last person posted on this regarding the same thing you needed was last 2015. The OP who created this thread last activity was way back in 2013. I think your best bet is find someone who does 3D print within your area and see if he can copy the item for you. Or you can try and post it in the Wanted section, just in case. http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/forum/10-wanted/
  9. Cyberpunk 2077 is being pulled out from Playstation Store. https://www.vox.com/culture/22187377/cyberpunk-2077-criticism-ps4-xbox-one-bugs-glitches-refunds https://www.theverge.com/2020/12/17/22188007/sony-cyberpunk-2077-removed-playstation-store-full-refunds-policy
  10. Their website still says January 2021. Amazon estimates January 30. Amiami's date is January as well.
  11. Oooooh. That's so hurtful.
  12. Have you already receive the shipping cost from AE? I checked HLJ and it looks like the item is available to add it in the cart to get an estimate on how much shipping cost is going to be. DHL is Y7230 and thru FedEx is Y7530. I have a few recent purchases from Mandarake, AmiAmi, and AmazonJP to compare the prices, weight, and box sizes. And shipping prices for each really varies. I have a big box but weigh lighter (1.5kg) and it costs me Y5460 for the shipping. I have a smaller box but weigh heavy (2.5kg) and it cost me Y2030 for the shipping. I was expecting the smaller box is going to be expensive because of the weight. And all of these via DHL. These prices are not as astronomical as to what I got using DHL quote site. Unless retailers really get 80% discount for using them. Let me know if the AE shipping cost is same or close as HLJ's. It's too bad that we can't check DHL easily like other shipping methods do to estimate and plan for any purchase abroad. I'm just glad that HLJ has stock of the item in question to get a good idea on how much to ship via DHL.
  13. Any as long that it comes with free Fries and a Soda. Love the groups shot though. The third one is the one that comes with the Happy Meal. j/k Fries. Soda. Happy Meal. Who wants a McRib now?
  14. I feel you @anubis20. 22lbs is basically 10kg. So I can't imagine how much it's going to be. And it's hard not to argue how an 8lbs become 22lbs package. That's why it's very hard to decide because shipping cost really add to the burden. So it's really nice to have initial idea how much it's going to be since the only option we have right now is DHL. What are the chances that the price chart on the DHL Buyee is accurate and being used for retailers? Anyways, how I really wish that all the shops here in the US will carry everything, that way, we're just going to order here directly because if the total is just going to be the same, then it's just best to order it here. As long that preorder will be easy.
  15. Ok. I don't think we're understanding each other here. I already posted some example on the pricing that I'm getting from a DHL sample quote that I'm doing versus the price that I get from AmazonJP. The use of JapanPost pricing is just to use it as a reference due to the fact that I can't access a direct price quoting chart for DHL. Not to mention the discount the retail shop gets which in turn we're not sure how they price it because it's really different from the price that I'm seeing from the DHL Get-A-Quote site. I have an item here that I just purchased from AmazonJP to use it as an example. I checked the invoice and its label, compare it to the DHL quote site, and with the JapanPost EMS site. And like I said, I'm just using JapanPost as a reference and not as a 'final' quote for DHL. I paid $16.70 for shipping at AmazonJP using DHL. Since I still have the box here with the shipping label on it, I used that info on the DHL quote site and it gave me two options of Y14500 and Y15170. Please note the quote are shipped from Japan to US. And since the weight of the package is 0.94kg, I cross-checked JapanPost's EMS pricing for the said weight and it says Y2900 shipped to the US. I also just check the Buyee DHL page and it shows Y3974 for 1kg to US. So I don't know why the Get-A-Quote page is 10x. Now, assuming that there's a discount for retailers to bring that Y14500 quote down to let's say the original $16.70 amount that I paid for it. What are the chances for us to find out DHL cost while we place order to estimate it since DHL is the only option we have from Japan? Because at this point, the cost that I found at JapanPost is closer to what I paid shipped from AmazonJP than the $140 quote that I got directly from the DHL website. Hence, I'm just saying we're looking at JP's as a reference.
  16. BBTS in my honest opinion has a great customer service. Bar none. Yes, it might be $10-30 more but in the end if you have problem with the figure (which I did before) they will help you worry-free and hassle-free. By saying that, how I really wish that they can carry lots of Macross and Gundam stuff. And less hassle to preorder.
  17. Got it. And that's why it's really hard to tell what's what with DHL. Because based on the sample quote of a shoebox size that I posted earlier, the price is so astronomical. When the Voltes V order that I have with AmazonJP which I think it will use DHL, the shipping is just Y8000 something. So it's what we're saying earlier. We just use the JapanPost chart as a guide to reference to have an idea how much might cost us. Because I'm pretty sure retailers have discount, just like what you said, in which we as a customer will not see it first-hand while ordering. And currently, we know that there's no JapanPost EMS and SAL. We just use its pricing chart as a reference since it's more accessible than DHL's.
  18. Care to share a link if that's ok? Is it somehow same as JapanPost's EMS Rate listing? Because I'm having a hard time getting a sample quote using their Get-A-Quote Japan site. Because for a 2kg Shoe box that has a measurement of 35x20x15cm, I'm getting astronomical pricing from Y17974 to Y19538 to ship it from Japan to US. Unless I'm doing it wrong.
  19. Ah. The UN Spacy. That I forgot. Thanks Sanity. What's so funny that every time this topic or concern gets raised it automatically boils your blood. It's not because to what happened to Macross but it's more of moral and decency questions. It's so twisted. It reminds me of it whenever I get to watch Italian Job and how Lyle keeps on claiming he invented it. So twisted. Anyways, back to regular programming.
  20. At that scale, I'm pretty sure they will include a PVC antenna for rough playing. After all, this is Bandai that we're talking about.
  21. IIRC, I think HG only have rights on the SDF series and its mechas outside Japan. Past that series, like Macross Plus Valks for example, they don't. But please do correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.
