  1. Yup. That's my friend @vic01 who's also a member here. He sent me the same photo earlier via text. I'll have to do the same thing soon.
  2. Ok. So I finally got two packages from GMC today at work. First was Turris Babel, which I should say it really looks gorgeous inspite of some loose accessory connectors esp on the Shield Bits. The shield connector going to the backpack also broke. Not broke into pieces but it's more like there's not enough glue to hold the pieces together. But it can be fixed ofcourse with another layer of superglue. Also, I was scared at first that I'm missing a piece on the foot. When I opened the plastic tray, the left leg is missing the front white piece above the red feet area. And good thing it's under the figure. What a relief. Both red feet also have some paint chipped on the front. But all the joints are so tight. I'm lovin' it inspite of some QC errors. Second one should the Metal Club 00 Raiser. But when I opened the other box, to my surprise, I got a Dragon Momoko 1/100 Strike Freedom Gundam bundled with Wing Conversion Effect Parts with a stand. I already emailed GMC about it earlier and hopefully he reply as soon as the Chinese New Year festivities are over. Not sure if he's going to ask me to return the kit since I already rip the shipper box. And if so, I'm willing to send it back to him as long that he will send me or reimburse me of the shipping back to him. If he's not willing to do it, I'm still under PayPal protection. So there's that too. Anyways, hope he reply soon since I already bought a lot of Metal Build figures from him. Now, regarding the Avalanche GN Big Sword, it would be nice if it separates but sad to say it's not. And I'm just thinking what if I just cut the sword in half and add a magnet to it so it can be combine once again. What cutter should I use to cut it in half? Does regular cutter would be ok to cut thru ABS plastic? (The one on the right) Thanks!

    True. And those awfully cute figure price couldn't fill how much was spent on Valks.

    Wait... What?! Are you even on the right forum? You know that Macross is all about fighters that turn into robots, right? Heck, they also transform in a form that looks like a chicken called Gerwalk. Mmmm... YF-19 Gerwalk. But if you're just into fighter planes, maybe you wanna try Yukikaze. I heard the design of the planes featured in that series is gorgeous. Oh, not to mention they also have 1/100 (sorry it's not 1/60) fully detailed, painted, pre-assembled and line art accurate model as well. Maybe you want to check them out. Peace.

    Macross figures

    Matching hair colors, right? Guess where they got the idea from? Hahaha! But you have to admit they're cute, right?
  6. Hahaha! There's no new toy from Arcadia, B. From now on, it's all reissues and repaints.
  7. C'mon?! You're not serious, right? Moi! Are you sure 4 is not enough?
  8. Do they carry Macross stuff? If not, pass. Hehehe. j/k
  9. You're entire Macross collection for FREE!
  10. If Macross The Ride story is not possible, then Macross Delta Side Story: Alpha and Beta Platoon should suffice. I mean, they should finish release first all the DX Delta stuff, right? By doing a Delta side story series, then they still have the current molds to announce for both Alpha and Beta Platoon while still releasing Delta Valks in 2018. It's all about marketing. I don't think Mazinger will stay off the forums. He still needs it to fill his cravings for the Valkyrie toys.

    Hahaha! Technically, they're Singing Sailor Moons. Ok, I'll stop too.

    Probably. Since Walküre is Valkyrie in German. Just not to get confused with the 'singing group'.
  13. AutoArt... AutoArt... Now I'm browsing AutoArt too... Have to blame Spanner for this. Spanner, any recommendation for a Porsche car? Would love to have a Porsche 959 Rothmans. Anyone, have this one yet? I know it's OT, but it looks gorgeous.
  14. Thanks for sharing this Chronocidal. Looks interesting. Few questions though. 1. Does the new part whether it's POM or Stainless scratch the wing part? Esp the painted part area? 2. Is there any instructions on how to dismantle the wing parts from the hip? Kind of scary to do it though. 3. Can you post more photos on how that new part helps expanding the wing from Fast to Regular mode. Like how it expands from one mode to another. Thanks!

    Good luck! Enjoy Akihabara. Make sure you visit Odaiba too for the 1/1 scale Gundam. I've read that they're going to bring it down sometime mid-year. And I haven't seen it yet... Oh well.
  16. Yours JVM? Take it out from the box! Let the SDF-1 breath some air! Pronto! For this size, I'm in!

    Thanks for the heads up F360! Was out the whole weekend so I missed on checking emails. But don't worry sir, I already PO'ed over Rakuten when the first PO run out weeks after. And seeing that AmiAmi already put it on MSRP, I'm glad that I already placed one before. I just hope there will be no problem getting PO from Rakuten. I just want to test them out and see if they're going to deliver. If so, then I have a backup for the next PO's. 'Macross is all about transforming Valkyries.' Period.

    ^ I tried doing that to my VF-31J before and it's not doable. The other half of the pod is hitting the back part of the canopy area and the whole back wing root won't lie flat.

    Hi-Metal R

    If no one wants to pay NY marked up price, there's one in Mandarake for Y16000.

    Let us know after if it has the same price as Nippon-Yasan's.

    It's there actually. The dark shape between the thigh and the backpack wing.
  22. Actually, Arcadia is not charging $100 more. It's more like $50-55 price difference based on their MSRP for each release. Y21600 for the regular release and Y27864. It's just so happen that Nippon-Yasan is offering a big discount on the regular release PO whereas they charge Y1000+/- more for the Premium Finish. I understand the frustration there since we can only get the Premium Finish from Nippon-Yasan only. Unless you have friends, families, or relatives who lives in Japan who can get it for you. We can say all we want too. Love Arcadia. Hate Arcadia. Blame this or blame that. But that's how it is.
