     But from the short time since that Regult came out the shipping has gotten cheaper to my understanding. 

    as far as the hmr being worth only half an Arcadia is being a bit kind to Arcadia. The hmr vf0 will be a bit shorter and may lack the functional landing gear, but appears to be able to pose better and looks better overall, plus it has the shorter wing option for battroid that makes it more accurate to the anime. And a cool stand

    The cost of shipping by every mode is skyrocketing worldwide. 

    I'm not suggesting that a HMR is worth half an Arcadia. I'm suggesting it's worth less. And the HMR looking better overall...................................:rofl:

    At that price, I'll just stalk mandarake, and hope for the usual release day supply (common for HMR).

    $110 (good exchange rate) vs $170 is just absurd.

    Yeah, no way I'm paying that sort of money for a HMR that will be part of a line they will never finish.:D

  3. With shipping prices skyrocketing how they are right now I don't see there being a massive difference between the JP and US sourced unit once they have landed on your porch. Maybe $25-35. Not the worst "old man I don't want to deal with PO night" tax.

    I do think that $130-150 on your porch price for a HMR is a little sleep in general. Even paying the "old man tax" on a DX will have you at $280-300. To me a HMR isn't close to half the value of a DX or an Arcadia.

  4. Question:

    This thread was supposed to be an improvement on how PO discussions are handled on this board. It was sold mostly along the lines of cleaning things up and petting all PO stuff in one place. In furtherance of that doesn't it seem like it would be an improvement to delete all posts from previous PO's when a new one goes up?

    I did receive  mine earlier today.  No padding.  Just a plastic DHL bag around the toy box.  Thankfully everything looks intact.  I don't see any paint/glue issues on the toy.

    Same for me across the board.

    It never occurred to me that you could essentially transform any Valkyire into an Armored VF-1J with the extra head included with that set. I think I've finally found something on which I should spend my N-Y store credit.

    Not all of the heads will swap with each other. I can't remember which ones won't.

    Yeah, thanks for hearing me out. Can't replace it anymore as I've destroyed some paints while trying to remove the glue stained. 

    It had QC issues. At that point it was returnable. You tried to fix it, it failed. It's still returnable. I would certainly be returning it if the shipping wasn't cost prohibitive.

    Have you contact them yet?

    They give me email that my order is on the way since May 17 but the tracking number they gave me is untraceable.

    Honestly all the need to email  them like this make me nervous.

    They finally got me tracking after having to pester them. It should be here today. Too bad I won't be here to sign for it. I guess I'll get it tomorrow.

    Why get this if you already have the HMR?

    In the Regult's case you get a cockpit fitting pilot. What is special here?

    To each their own I suppose. I don't understand why I have the HMR's and 1/48 Yamato's. One pair seems plenty.:unknw:

    On the other hand I have every transforming Skull One ever made (and some that don't). That doesn't make sense to me either.:fool:

    From their FB page:

    I apologize for the delays on the Invid troops. It has been hard with the lockdowns in China and other logistical issues. As an apology I am releasing some 3d models on my thingiverse page. Hope your like them:

    Oh man, he's i China. Yikes. Those lockdowns are scary.

    I think MEP should apologize for the apology. 😅

    LOL

    I liked it. Very much a dramatic episode and I felt everyone was going pretty much true to form.

    I do wish now that they had given episode 7 to Makee rather than Kwan. It would have given her character more time to adjust to being among humans and to get closer to John, for whom she was about to turn against the Covenant. Instead, her switch happened pretty quickly. And then back again, esp after being hit with that stun-stick right in the same spot she did the last time. Owie!

    And that was a pretty cool Spartan on Spartan fight! Then Kai went in with the flying kick. Loved it!

    Also good to have Cartana now on the right side.

    Ling forward to 9!

     

    Edit. I jus made SMS Squad Leader!  'Get in line, you maggots!'

    :D

    I've got a higher reputation score (likes) than you have posts. Twice as many. Drop and give me 25!8P

  11. LP is getting pretty annoying with this shipping thing.

    I emailed them yesterday asking for the status on shipping. I had DHL tracking that showed it was picked up by DHL this morning.

    -I shouldn't have to email them.

    -It shouldn't have been shipped out faster than those of you that contacted them previous to when I did.

    This will probably be my last order with LP.
