  1. Refresh the page if you clicked on the link above and the discount didn't show.
  2. Looks pretty sweet... and is Amazon's deal of the day today! Woohoo!
  3. What keyboard is Pikachu using?

    Nice! I think I've had almost every Sheryl and Ranka figure in my collection at some point, though I've sold a bunch due to space or I didn't like the quality. Wedding dress Sheryl arrived today. Looks great, but as usual the face doesn't look right. Don't know why it's so hard to get Sheryl's face right. Out of all the Sheryl figures to come out over the years, only a few I feel actually look like her.

    Are the Yamato stand adapters still available?
  6. @eggy99: How did I miss this? A little late, but fantastic job on the YF-19!
  7. Hey! That gunpod isn't canon! Spectacular pics as always Saburo!
  8. Eventually, if I can find the time.
  9. Thanks guys. I'm just a lucky amateur compared to the real pros here. I'm Batman Year One to their Dark Knight Returns. @eggy99: Looking forward to seeing the completed VF-1A!
  10. Arcadia YF-19 doesn't reuse any of the VF-19 molds. Don't know why people keep repeating that these two different variants share the exact same molds. In any case, why does this need to be a zero sum game?

    Latest Banpresto Ranka Lee figure arrived. Ranka in a wedding dress... oh my! Just waiting for Sheryl now.

    Transformed it and I have to say it looks 10x better with the strike parts added. I almost wish I had bought a second one. It also helps that Hikaru is wearing the correct flight suit this time around. I don't care what rationalizations are thrown around, the GBP 1J has the wrong damn flight suit.
  13. That's some good panel lining! I thought you said you had no experience at such things? Now add some weathering!
  14. Thanks for the input everyone. I've emailed them with pics of the damage. Here's hoping!
  15. Alright, I'll email them and see what they say. Not hopeful I'll get anything back, but no harm in asking.

    Opened up my Hikaru 1S today and I have to say I already like it more than the 1J. Feet are straight this time. Chest stripes are angled so it doesn't look like a Takatoku. Actual clear visor part instead of painted on. No comically oversized UN Spacy kite on the front fuselage. Still don't like the backpack design though. I'll have to paint the red dot on the head myself and no head arrows. Bandai cheaps out on the strangest things. Might even transform it later and see if fighter mode is less of an eyesore this time around.
  17. Sadly, I don't. Oh well. I didn't pay that much for it, so I may find some use for it in the future. Maybe find another junk VF-1 and make 1 good unit...
  18. Looks like I flew too close to the sun on wings of pastrami... Bought a B grade VF-1A from Jungle for a pretty low price. The only issue they told me about aside from the "sunburned" box was the rainbow canopy was starting to crinkle. Not a big deal. I can just remove it if it's a problem. Just got it today and was very disappointed. First thing I noticed was that the outer hardpoints on both wings were broken off. WTF. Alright, fine, I can just keep it in battroid and not have anything attached on the wings. Then I see that one of the lower stabilizers is completely missing. WTF again! That clinched it. This thing is a piece of junk and is only good for spare parts.
  19. If it makes you feel better, it's still cheaper than the previous times it was released, when the yen was sky high. 74 yen to the dollar ugh

    Is there a problem with being #2? Although the Arcadia GBP cost a lot more, it's the HMR GBP that I felt I got ripped off on. But like a bunch of others, I'm only picking up the VF-1s to go with the HMR stuff I'm really looking forward to, which are the Regults and other mecha we'll probably never see in 1/60.

    The HMR VF-1 is easily the second best VF-1 toy released this year. Go Number Two!
