  1. This has arrived today. Now I'm ready to make my own Premium Finish Valkyries.
  2. I have to agree it looks nice with the Hall of Armor thing. But as someone pointed it out to me before, I just forgot who , that displaying it just standing reminds him of this scene: And to be honest, he sure is right. Hehehe. I might have to find some cool way to display them individually. The only problem I will have with what I'm thinking is how to utilize Tony's stage. But I'm sure I will come up with something. I just have to talk with the wife first if she will permit me to do something crazy on one of the walls though.
  3. Thanks connor99! True. But it really does take a space to do it. And also this Hall of Armor is really pricey. So I'm thinking more of a DIY presentation of it rather than spend atleast Y40000 to get the rest of 6 Hall of Armors. Yes sir! I PO'ed both from NY. And I already emailed them requesting to upgrade the shipping from Registered Mail to EMS since I PO'ed them with some other stuff too. And already paid the extra for upgrading it with no problems. I'm also considering this Hall of Armor instead. Though it's clear and no LEDs. But I'll probably end up doing a DIY one in the future. Michael's and any Craft Stores to the rescue. Hey Lolicon. Actually, I used to ship my DX Valkyries PO before from Nippon-Yasan via Registered Mail just to save a few dough and I didn't have problems with it. It just so happen that one small package got lost and this is the first time that it happened to me so experiencing the hustle that goes with it, I started shipping everything EMS. Guess it's true what these Japanese shops is telling us via their FAQ that for International customers, it's better to use EMS. Lesson learned. Charge to experience. And no, don't want to spend the extra Y40000+ just for this Hall of Armors. Hehehe.

    Hi-Metal R

    Ooppss. My bad. Your post didn't mentioned that so I assumed some items at HLJ.
  5. I'm still in the process of filing a claim with USPS and Nippon-Yasan for my lost Figuarts Iron Man Mark VI Registered Mail package so I decided to nab one with Hall of Armor via eBay the cheapest one I could find. Buying another figure without the Hall of Armor from Mandarake probably will cost the same if I used EMS as getting one with the Hall of Armor stateside. I was charged Y8260 with using Registered Mail. Why use EMS for small package if you want to save a little? Because atleast with EMS, I could probably claim 100% of the total price afterwards whereas from the Registered Mail option, I could only claim Y6000. That's what it states on the Japan Post. And that will depends if Nippon-Yasan will play nice with me during this claim because according to USPS International representative, they should be the one who needs to file the claim for you since they're the ones who bought the shipping for you. So from now just to be safe, I'm using EMS. Though I'm not sure if I really need the Hall of Armor. Oh well.
  6. Love it, Ignacio. So intimidating. I need a 1/10 version of Ley and Stick in their civvies in my collection.

    I'm loving this! Would be nice to see this besides Delta's VF-1 trainers. I'm starting to hate you now, sh9000. Hahaha! True. But nah. I'm going to control this HMR purchases. Yes, sometimes item's MSRP is 25% more expensive at HLJ. But factor also the shipping cost from all of the stores afterwards and which customer service is better. In the end, all you really save or lost is $10-18. Besides, you can cancel the one from HLJ anytime, hassle and worry-free and without worrying of getting banned. Just saying. Banned! 'Nuff said! Great pic as always, Saburo! Belated Happy Fourth everyone!
  8. Seeing that pic again, why do I get the feeling that I will spend atleast Y33000+ for one?

    Hi-Metal R

    No. I'm just looking for an option for my purchased HMR VF-1J, since the price on the stand-alone Super Packs is getting astronomical. Cool! I really like how it looks. Kind of Jetfire, but hey, that's my favorite color scheme right there all into one. Thanks for the offer. I'll let you know once I really can't get a reasonable Stand-alone pack. Unless you have extra or unused TV Packs sans the Strike Cannon since the 1J is just for Supers, that would be sweet.

    Hi-Metal R

    Hahaha! Don't tempt me. The regular Super Packs is getting expensive now so I'm doing some research. OR I could just wait until Bandai decides to sell another round of stand-alone packs. But to be honest, this scheme looks rock! I really like it. Who knows, if I'm going to keep my 1/60 Millia PO, I might use this scheme. Last request. Can you do this Super Pack on Hikaru's VF-1S? Maybe it will look better since it has black stripes too.

    Hi-Metal R

    Oooh. Not bad. Now I can't help but think more of Jetfire. Hehehe. But to be honest, I kind of like it. If Hikaru's nosecone tip is painted grey, it would've been perfect. Does Millia's shade of red almost the same as Hikaru's? Thanks for this one, sh9000!

    Hi-Metal R

    Nah. Have to control purchases this time. Cool. Cool. Looking forward to it.
  13. no3Ljm

    Hi-Metal R

    I know, right. Hahaha! But I have to make sure it's manageable: VF-1J, VF-2SS, (teased) VF-4. Even though would love to have a set of Destroids, I'll just stick with the Valks. Also, is it ok to ask for a favor since you're the only one who has 'most' of it. Is it ok if you post a pic of Hikaru's VF-1J in all forms wearing Millia's Super Packs? Thanks in advance!
  14. What other versions? Is there another company that's making one? Or you're referring to different model and color schemes (e.g. VF-1S, VF-1A, Roy color, Max color, CF color, etc.)?
  15. no3Ljm

    Hi-Metal R

    Thanks Seti! Well, technically it's 3 since I PO'ed 2 VF-2SS. I'll just decide later on what to do with the second VF-2SS. Hahaha! So true, JVM! Go get one now. And just worry later.

    Hi-Metal R

    I just did. Bought a VF-1J at HLJ. Hehehe. Hope it looks good besides the VF-1J since VF-1J figure has more panel lines than the sleek looking VF-2SS.

    Hi-Metal R

    Tsk. Tsk. I should've closed my browser. After this relaxing and easy PO experience, it made me buy a VF-1J TV too at HLJ. Oh man...

    FYI. That 'split' looking claw is there for Gerwalk mode. As per lineart courtesy of Macross Mecha Manual.

    Hi-Metal R

    Congrats everyone! For those who didn't get any, NY is not open yet. Anyways, enjoy the rest of the holiday and Happy 4th of July! Keep your fingers intact.

    Hi-Metal R

    Good thing my alarm set off just right in time. I can't help but PO'ed two at AmiAmi when it showed up. Happy 4th of July everyone!
  21. I'm assuming the size of the battery wasn't printed on some panel within the battery compartment?
