Of course! Just a matter of when. You know I luv da rainbow canopy. -
Oh wow that's a nice haul. Those three are among the very best Sheryl & Ranka figures to come out over the years. The left figure is easily my favorite of every Frontier figure ever released.

Thanks for the tip! Yeah I looked over the runners and it's going to take extensive painting to make it look anything like the pictures on the box. The kit is essentially one step above molding everything in one color and expecting people to paint everything. In short, it ain't no gunpla kit. The base color of the plastic is wrong, and all that fancy gold trim will need to be either hand-painted or masked and airbrushed by a masking pro. Doesn't even use clear pieces for the green orbs; they're just painted green. So it's on hold till I can round up the materials to build it properly.

My first Moderoid kit. I hope the final product looks half as good as the promotional pics, as I'm not sure the plastic colors capture the pale gold color of Valimar. Looks like I have something to do for my next few free nights. Saw from @no3Ljm's earlier post that Ordine is coming too, so looking forward to that release as well.

So you're saying your valkyries are currently living in a bigger home than you?
-
Cool shot. And me too on all those characters.

No battle-damaged parts. Didn't know there was a battle-damaged Tekkaman figure out there.

Bought a Tekkaman Blade figure from some maker I've never heard of before. I it's a pretty nice figure, if a bit on the pricier side.

Saw this Tekkaman Blade figure for preorder months ago from some manufacturer I've never heard of. Took a chance on it and I'm glad I did. Huge and well-built and quite a lot of diecast. I'm talking almost Hot Toys Iron Man level of diecast content. He's as big as a 1/48 DX VF-1. Only one gripe: who the hell designed the battery compartments? It's incredibly hard to get the batteries in, and god help you if you want to remove them. Truly a Sisyphean ordeal. -
Someone asked ages ago why there's a guitar pick in my pictures of disassembled valkyries. That's why. Fantastic shots BTW @MKT
-
It's smaller than the 1/60 version.

For those who don't want a gunpod on their Angel Birds: have you tried removing it?
-
I was also on the fence about this release due to the aforementioned reasons. But it was decided for me because I have a standing favor with my friend in Japan to always order 2 of every 1/48 TWE and I neglected to mention I wasn't sure I wanted this one. Whoops.
-
Three reissues if you count the Hi Metal Regret VF-1J. Skipping all three so I guess that's more money for my next trip. Same here!

Yes it has more markings printed on than previous iterations of the 29. It's on par with the rest of the Delta line marking-wise.
