    Hi-Metal R

    I kind of cheated and got the VF-19, a DYRL VF-1A Super, and a SDFM VF-1A Max. It was my delusional way of "saving" money.

    You're right about that. I ended up getting the VF-19 since it's so cheap right now. Yeah, I plan on using the inevitable Amazon gift cards coming this Christmas for those HMR Zero mechs.

    Hi-Metal R

    Honestly, I just started watching Macross 7. While I appreciated Macross II, I usually just collect the mecha from SDFM and DYRL. I just wanted to add something different.

    So what's the general consensus on the Macross II VF-2 SS? I'm trying to decide whether to get the Fire VF-19 with Sound Booster or the VF-2 SS next.
  5. Nevermind.
  6. Dang, thats really good. Congrats on the nice find.
  7. I just started watching, "Good Bye, Dragon Life." Man, the show gives a weird hentai inuendo.
  8. How much were you able to get it for?
  9. Thanks. I wasn't sure how the 1/48 Chogokins were gonna look in those with the stands in Battloid mode. It looks like you barely can fit the GBP Armored one in there. I'm guessing the Super or Strike won't fit, at least in the default shelf configuration?
  10. I wonder why Bandai has never done a weathered version? Their competitors have already released one so why can't they?
  11. It looks cool, but I bet it wont stand up on its own very well. They even tell you in the product page:
  12. I'm all for weathering, but I'm not a fan of that large burn mark on on of the wings.

    Hi-Metal R

    I love the Hi-Metal R MK-II Monster. It's scary that it's actually a smaller scale than the DX-Chogokin VF-1 Valkyries.
  14. I ended up binge watching the rest of the series and I liked it up until the final part of the last episode. I think the ending could have been a lot better and I’m still debating whether I like what happens to the Gundam and it’s pilot.
  15. I just started watching Requiem for Vengeance. I'm only two episodes in but I'm liking the series so far. The animation doesn't really bother me since the story has been pretty good so far. I do like the concept of Gundam being the evil monster though. It's funny because I've been playing Mechwarrior 5: Clans lately, and in that game you play as the bad guys too.
  16. I saw this review of some other ChowBrick non-Lego set and it looked pretty good. None of the bricks looked warped or damaged. I don't know if this will be the same quality. Is Chow-Brick the name of the brand or just the name of the store that sells these non-Lego sets? Is Jie Star the brand name?
  17. Does someone have a picture the Battle Pod next to a DX Chogokin VF-1A?
  18. It looks like Shockwave.
  19. Blocking Japan was probably a big factor to it. Plus we're not exactly as big of a community as the Gundam and Transformers fanbase.
  20. Mine had the same thing, but not that bad. I tried bending it straight lightly but didn't do anything. Hopefully it gets fixed in future releases.
  21. I don't get it. I stopped collecting any of the Macross toys above the VF-1 when I had so much disappointment in the VF-25 series. This VF-31 just looks weird to me, especially with that large back sticking out like that.
  22. frakk I'm getting old. So many people from my childhood memories are dying lately.
