    Hi-Metal R

    With JapanPost down, they have to personally get on a plane and fly to the nearest city to you, then hop in a limousine to bring it to your house. Dom in the limo for the ride to your house gets expensive.
  2. Bandai CEO: "At least half the people at Macrossworld were able to get in a PO. Time to reduce production."
  3. My kids destroyed my original sky striker playing with it when they were little. I've since sold off all my original 80s GI Joe stuff- it was just taking up too much room in a box in the basement.
  4. Yeah- it isn't much of a price advantage right now. I was checking HLJ to see if I could ship the Mospeada mook and the unregistered air mail option does come up, but look at the prices (and this is just for the mook):
  5. So my yellowed Yamato 1/60 v1 Hikaru that was in pretty sad shape I've been starting on moving him to an Alaska Base custom. I have to put on another coat and clean up a *lot* of the lines on there, but he's already starting to take shape. Even needing more work, it is way better than the crazy yellow thing I had before. Once I finish tidying up the primary colors, I'll add in some detailing. Knees look a little odd from this angle- they'll look better once I tidy that up.
  6. Got some quick night shots in:
  7. We also put black cat items all around the yard and have a "Can you count all the black cats" game going for the neighborhood small kids. We move some of them around the yard every few days.
  8. The kids will be trick or treating. We usually set up in the driveway with a magical-research set-up anyway, so we're gonna do that (without the canopy we normally do it). We're gonna draw coffins on the ground that are six feet apart to show where people can stand and write "Six Feet Apart or Six Feet Under". We'll use like a skeleton arm thing to hand candy over.
  9. Yep- we decorated, though a number of our flowers are still blooming like crazy, so I had to design the graveyard around it. We also added skeletons and pumpkins to the window boxes this year. Haven't gotten our night pictures yet with everything lit up.

    I smashed the like button on that comment so hard.

    Yep- they've done the Hikaru DYRL 1A in HMR and had the DYRL Max and Hayao 1As in HM, but we have yet to get the TV versions (HM or HMR). I think that Hayao being a "less popular" character was my thought to pack with Max.
  12. I'd likely get a set.

    I would think that repaints of valks would at least be a low-risk money grabber while they continue to evaluate stuff like destroids and zents. I know a Max/Hayao 1A two pack would sell. Or at least I'd buy it.
  14. All this chunky talk and I spotted a (currently) decent priced Takatoku on fleabay. Not my auction but hoping someone here might get a great price on a TT (especially since folks keep erroneously marketing them as Bandai and then including a picture of the TT trademark). https://www.ebay.com/i/264882977560
  15. The TV version will come with a steak, but he doesn't ever eat it.

    I keep telling myself I don't need another one yet, so it isn't me.

    I've been keeping an eye on their ebay site to see if they add it, since their listings are usually free shipping from there.
  18. Normally not so bad, but right now only the expensive methods are available with JapanPost still not delivering to the states.
  19. I'm going to limit myself to only stuff I actually have (or will have once it is released): 1/3000 SDF-1 (the classic) Bandai DX Chogokin Vf-1S Roy w/ TV supers Yamato 1/48 VF-1J stealth with super parts Yamato 1/48 VF-1A low-vis Yamato 1/48 VF-1J stealth with urban camo GBP armor Yamato 1/60 v2 Skull Vf-1S low vis HMR Monster Bandai 1/55 VF-1S Hikaru (yellow stripe) w/ super parts Bandai 1/55 VF-1J Hikaru reissue w/ GBP armor HMR Regult Artillery set (so I can sneak two in there and make them regular Regults if needed)

    I had been talking up the HMR Monster on an FB group so it may have been grabbed up by one of the folks there.
  21. @Blackaces Pwease!
  22. Looks like they are working on GBP:
  23. Between this and @Anasazi37's chunky monkey customs, I feel inspired to try to do this for a chunky 1A. Thanks for the inspiration, @nightmareB4macross. On a side note- you have the Halloween decorations coming out yet?
