  1. I guess that explains why they re-released it. Still a strong seller. Hard to believe considering how many times it's been re-issued.
  2. Anyone know if Sentinel offers spare parts? My Legios stand arm snapped. Or any other place?
  3. Good for people who don't have them already but i'd wish for a more exciting reissue.
  4. Finally ordered some of these Archie Stands. I never buy these as i usually put the money to a new valk. I put in a massive order that cost as much as a valk. I am looking forward to getting these.
  5. Always felt Tomalak was a missed opportunity for TNG. He could've been the Dukat of TNG before there was a Dukat.
  6. I agree completely. Yeah I agree that Star Trek has always pushed progressive values and very political, which in itself is not a bad thing. It's the way they present in the modern shows that makes these shows insufferable. They are so biased, partisan and authoritative to the point of being offensive to a good chuck of their audience. At least in the older shows the arguments are more balanced and reasoned (bar a couple of exceptions). There's also a stupidity to it. In Discovery when Stamats got lectured about pronouns in the 30th century is ridiculous.
  7. Yes! Finally able to get the megahouse version. Though on further thought i wonder if i even care? The hi-metal may be enough Orguss for me. Anyone have both? Is the Megahouse substantially better than the hi-metal?
  8. Yeah i actually bought these a while back. There was some concern about the contact points scratching the toy. I cut out the excess material from the sticky feet pad to stick on the contact pads. It's seems to work find other than the these stands being a bit tippy.
  9. Thanks for the info. Appreciate it.
  10. I wasn't sure where to post this so hopefully this is ok. I'm looking to get some risers for my display cases. I just wanted to get some feedback. Are most risers OK for Macross toys? Do I have to worry about certain risers that may damage or discolor the toy? On the other hand are there risers that work best for Macross toys? I imagine most are ok but I just wanted to be sure. Thanks in advance.
  11. The teal one really needs a reissue. It's the one i really wanted but unfortunately had the most issues.
  12. Interesting in hindsight i realize i had the same problem. Was never able to separate the chest without the head coming off. I just assumed i was having an off day transforming it. Seeing your video makes me realize it is a fit issue.

    I remember the early days of ebay. Retailers would list their unsellable stock for cheap and you would find something you were looking for at a great price. Now they throw their stuff up at collector prices.
  14. Yeah I've been waiting for the tan Delta version. Surprised they never released it.
  15. Hmm I need to handle my AXs more. I haven't encountered any of these issues but they've also pretty much been on display since I bought them.
  16. What a joke i have to wait till July 10th to put a case in. Just gives him more time to run off with my money.
  17. Just as i feared. My instincts were right.

    Hi-Metal R

    Ok i got it to the way you have it. The hinge was super stiff and i had to use some force to get it down. Super scary. I was worried about breaking it. That being said i still don't like how high the tailfins are. The one flaw of the hi-metal design but otherwise an awesome toy. Thanks for your help @sh9000 and everyone else who replied. I love this forum.

    Can you guys remind me if it’s normal for the tail fins be this high up. I feel like it’s sitting too high but I can see no obvious way to lower it. And yes I already slide the backpack back.

    It's interesting to me that everyone says the canopy has a blue tint. I see green. Is there something wrong with my eyes? I know I'm not color blind. LOL!
  21. Do you have an estimated eta?
  22. LOL! Well I don't want to do that. I'm happy to pay for it if it comes. The frustrating issue is I'm going to have to wait a month or two to realize it's not coming. Then i get to file the claim. I'm more annoyed about my money being tied up over 2+ months. I've been through this situation at least 3 times over the last 3 years. I'm getting good at spotting these guys. They start off with high positive feedback which makes you feel safe buying from them. Then they list an item at a really good price (almost too good to be true). Then a month later you start seeing the negative feedbacks come in. These sellers are getting smarter as time goes by. First they just wouldn't ship the item. Then they gave out fake tracking numbers, Then they started shipping out small lego pieces to fool the buyer into thinking their item is on the way. All for stalling for time so they can get as much money as they can before the jig is up. Anyway lets hope for the best.
