Looks like it took HLJ about 5 minutes to run out.
-
I wasn't a super fan of Arad's color scheme, plus I've already got two -31s, with a -31A ordered, but seeing it in full DX glory is making me second guess my decision. I could always try to get a preorder, since it doesn't come out for a few months, and change my mind later. Though that'd mean I'd need to jump on a hopeful reissue of Messer's ride for completion sake, I'm already planning on getting Chuck's for the different color (and radome).

Dang it, missed the -29, something I’d like to add to my collection, either a renewal Vf-25 or a YF-29. Anyway, HLJ haul today! It’s a new year, which means a new super sentai team (well, two this year), and I’m a fan of the mecha/gimmick again. Plus a Robot Damashii that I missed out on the first time around.

As soon as I saw the announcement, I knew I had to get the Lego Ship in a Bottle. It was just a wonderful sort of idea for a set, I couldn’t help myself.

New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
iguanaman8989 replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
I had forgotten the VF-22 had missile launchers in there. It's crazy how packed with stuff most variable fighters' legs are, like how the VF-31 has the engines, joint mechanisms, landing gear mechanics, missile launchers, and drone bays. Back to the VF-22, I had always wondered how the missile launcher mechanism manages to wrap around both sides of the gunpod's muzzle. -
New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
iguanaman8989 replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
YF-21 the gunpods are mounted externally and are exposed. VF-22 gunpods are mounted in the same spot, but have a stealth housing for them. -
VF-31C super parts ordered!
-
If it does come with all those goodies and a stand, I probably won't be able to resist, even with being satisfied with my Arcadia.
-
New Valk day! (Yesterday anyway) Couldn’t resist the revo Eva unit 6, kinda a sucker for a mecha wielding a polearm, a weapon that should see a lot more use. Last HLJ shipment until March.
-
No tilt, just a couple of pegs to rotate on.
-
My VF-2SS arrived today, need more time to fiddle with it. One minor issue, the left shoulder armor doesn’t appear to have been properly glued together. It was just loose in the tray under the battroid.
-
It doesn’t look like it can store the gunpod at all. I’d guess it comes with one gunpod and a swappable effect part to show the gunpod being ejected from the arm armor.
-
Minor point of clarification: The shields don’t rotate during transformation, the pointy end stays toward the hands. This is consistent with the boxart, instructions, and in the model kits. Trying to find a good screenshot from the series. https://imgur.com/a/lTGeq Wasn’t letting me upload directly, so here’s an imgur link.

Most recent HLJ haul, just before the VF-2SS next week Ian.
-
Just ordered my Kairos. I love the Siegfrieds, but this one is even sleeker looking, and the utilitarian color sceme gives it much more gravitas as credible military hardware.
-
Another HLJ haul. Robot Damashii TRI figures aren’t quite as possible as the usual line, but are more than adequate, for about half the price. ZZ ver Ka looks simply amazing, especially compared to the original, Frame Arms just ‘cuz it looks cool.
-
More stuff! Several firsts in this box! My first HMR VF-1! First Sentai brick! First non-Zoid Koto kit!
-
Yesterday's delivery. VF-31C, love the color and the head sculpt. Having two of them is making me regret passing on the -31F, if only for completion of Delta Platoon. 2017 Captain Phasma, has an actual metallic finish, updated head sculpt, hardpoint to stow her rifle, a sidarm, and her new spear, both compacted and extended. And Roid's 1/72 262 kit. Not gonna touch the itasha decals, but I love the gold/white combo.
-
Oof, wasn't expecting Figuarts Phasma to come out at the same time. Oh well, paid now. i was planning on shipping Mirage with Messer's VF-1S later, when I thought she was going to be coming out at the end of the month, like Bandai normally does. Just gonna ship her with Phasma and the 1/72 Roid 262 kit.
-
Both N-Y and HLJ arrived today! I was wondering which would come first, they both shipped the same day before the weekend.
-
Since my Lill Draken set shipped and is en route, I decided now would be a good time to see about getting my unpaid preorder for Messer's VF-1S cancelled from N-Y. Given the stories about occasionally shutting down accounts, I wanted to make sure that my exclusive item was already shipped before poking at it. I preordered at HLJ, so that I'd be able to combine for shipping with other September purchases. Turns out they cancelled no problem in the time it took me to type up this comment.
-
Mine shipped this morning, from N-Y, with no extra money needed!
-
The Mirage in that pic? Yeah, that's the Figuarts Zero.
-
I ended up cancelling my preorder for Millia. After some thought I decided that I just didn't really want/need the figure, since I was getting it more out of a need for getting the matched set.
-
My Delta shelf's starting to get a bit crowded. I'm gonna need a second Detolf before too much longer.
