None immediately that low but here's one I saw about a month ago: https://www.ebay.com/itm/BANDAI-HI-METAl-R-Macross-ADR-04-MKX-Destroid-Defender-Action-Figure-Collectable/184199651574?hash=item2ae327a0f6:g:ASsAAOSw8gBeYeRU I'll pop up here when I see some in the same price range.

I tend to haunt ebay looking for them and while there is usually a bunch of them for over $100 shipped and a couple in the $85- $90 range, there will sometimes be a seller or two in Japan who dips his price to sell. It's same with some of the Regults which have five million listings with crazy amounts and then there will be one person who dips down to like $125. It requires patience and sometimes searching a few different ways (and always sorting by "lowest price + shipping"). You also have to usually scroll past the "sponsored" links, which will highlight a few and then the price might drop right after those. I'm hunting a GBP 1J right now for a decent price, but I'll see if I can dig up some $80 destroids while I do it.

Go get them. You can snag the Spartan and Defender for like $80/each shipped if you keep looking hard enough. And the Monster is worth the price tag. So worth it.

Haven't watched yet, since the CGI is making me cringe still. For those watching, is this also taking into account SAC:SSS? Most definitely not.

I tried to transform my blue Toynami from fighter mode and busted the chest/cyclone store tab holding it in (last thing I expected to have a problem with). Returned it to fighter mode and now I don't change them.
-
Definitely got me lolling here on a Sunday morning.
-
I promised myself not to get anymore but there was a 1D and 1A CF for decent prices and I had to buy them. Now to explain to the wife when they show up since I can't have them sent to the office right now for me to sneak home.
-
That's a nice shot, @Kuma Style
-
Awesome- I think I'll be getting in on this preorder for sure!
-
I should have written "totes" instead! Er, I mean, yes, that is totes legit Macross Bandai DX.
-
At first I was skeptical, but now I found bbilly was telling the truth. I was surprised at the new box for the DX Kakizaki, though.
-
I leave for a few days, find a bunch of pages here and get excited for a 1S Roy preorder listing. Instead I get a fake Kakizaki claim and a lot of popcorn eating gifs. So, while disappointed, I am disappointed in the best way.
-
I've been wanting to stay away from getting into one more different scale, but these picts make my want to get one, @Kuma Style
-
I'm in the middle of finishing the basement, so I'm trying to keep purchases to a minimum, but does anyone know if Fext is planning to redo the SciFi line again since they are sold out (except for 04)?
-
I got my Regult missile set for about $215 shipped by finding a Japanese seller on ebay that was accepting offers. I started fairly low and kept incriminating by like one dollar each time my offer expired. I think I finally annoyed him into accepting my offer.
-
Agreed- I like the deck-breaking firepower Monster most.
-
+1 for Tread art
-
Yep- this room is kept mostly dark and I've still had yellowing on a few toys. I've seen people keep their stuff sealed in the box and still had yellowing, so you try to reduce it but things happen.

The Meptoys Breetai beating on Hikaru
-
Got my Yellow from BBTS. No stress marks on the plastic/metal connection and I was *super* careful moving that piece going to armor mode. I did pop off my windshield- like the above posts, no breakage on tab, it just is the glue wasn't enough to hold in position. I decided to just throw the piece in the saddlebag for now while it's in armor mode. I need to go check @jenius transformation guide since I haven't figured out how to pop out the upper VTOL jet on the wheel hubs (I tried gently pulling on the small flap and only managed to pop that off). I'm glad the instructions made it clear you have to pull the missile doors upwards to be able to open them, because I kept pulling the door off before I looked at the instructions and was wondering if they fraked that up. Makes more sense when the hinge slides upwards. I also took the picture and then noticed I hadn't straightened one of the blades, but was too lazy to take another picture after.
-
Just got my BBTS notification of shipping as well.
-
And now my HMR purchases are done for a bit.
-
I got my Monster for like $210 but I'd still pay that price. My shelf is getting a bit busy now- it's hard to take a photo that highlights anything. This next is especially hard to photograph with Lego Voltron dominating behind them. Also just got a Meptoys Breetai, so I'm likely gonna have him clubbing Hikaru's 1J in my next set of poses.

Looks like it!
