ChaoticYeti Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 I picked up my NECA 18" Striker Eureka today, he's incredible, like the rest. Unfortunately however, my shelf that was holding 18" Gypsy and Cherno isn't sturdy enough to hold all three, so I've gotta get a new display for them, and then I have to pick a day to re-arrange my whole room in order to accommodate the new bigger setup for my jaegers. I can't complain, they're awesome. IMAG0024.jpgIMAG0025.jpgIMAG0026.jpg He has issues, it wouldn't be a NECA figure without some. The two huge back fins were STUPIDLY difficult to get in, they fought me for 15 minutes, they eventually went in but that sucked. I'm also pretty displeased with his knees, they're way more loose then I'd like, if he isn't standing perfectly centered he could easily topple either forward or backward, which makes me nervous. Like I said though, he's another great addition, he's way more articulated then Gypsy and Cherno, and his arm blades and lighting are pretty sweet. At this point NECA is almost obliged to put out an 18" Crimson Typhoon, we need at least the main 4 movie mecha in this scale, I could pass on Kaiju, 18" Knifehead was a mess. Cherno is sweet, but my Gypsy suffers from terribly weak leg joints. How is eureka in the joint department? I don't want another $100 NECA noodle.
Saburo Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 2 more of the Fans Project Dinobots (Volar aka Swoop and Cubrar aka Slag) arrived on friday.
spanner Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Sick!!! Dinobots! Pretty much the only Transformers I actually do really like! Fantastic pics as per always Saburo!
spanner Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Picked up another Sword Art Online II - Sinon figure! Found her at a good price on Mandarake so I couldn't resist! Have to display her on my desk though as she's too tall with her gun to fit in my display cabinet.. Edited April 27, 2015 by spanner76
lancalot Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 love the foc dinobot Saburo ....That Sinon look awesome spanner.!!..

A college friend of mine is from Japan and lives in Tokyo now. He hooked me up. Holding out for a renewal 21 from arcadia. I was quite surprized at the build quality and how streamlined/thin it is. If Arcadia re-issued with a few tweaks....it would be incredible. Edited April 28, 2015 by w8kbrder

brouken Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 2 more of the Fans Project Dinobots (Volar aka Swoop and Cubrar aka Slag) arrived on friday. Great pics Saburo! Are they coming up with Grimlock and Snarl as well?
Saburo Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Great pics Saburo! Are they coming up with Grimlock and Snarl as well? Thank you! Yes, when the line was announced FP showed the release schedule. Grimlock, Snarl and a 6th Dinobot I am guessing its Paddles.
brouken Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Cool! Would be cool if they went the extra step and made a combiner out of the Dinobots. :-) Always hated that they get their ass kicked by the constructicons' Devastator.

I know for sure there is one 3P company producing Dinobot that combine, and I think there is also a 2nd company making Dinobot combiner.
Garfinkel Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 Just arrived this morning. 001.JPG They look like an awesome kit, does it build two valks or just the one? I am tempted by some of the hasegawa valk kits, specifically a yf-19 and yf-21. I was looking at the 1/72nd ones buta 1/48th yf-19 caught my eye. Do you know if they do a yf-21 in 1/48? Or should i keep to the practically sized 1/72 kits, i think a 1/48th yf-19 would be a beast.

The only 1/48 scale YF-21 I know of is an event-only resin kit put out by Club M many years ago. If you can find one, grab it! They're pretty rare. The 1/48 VF-19 builds up nice.

VF-19A Lightnings-A.JPG Very very nice,the colours are somewhat Ozma inspired but the lightning sets the scheme off nicely. I think I will be going for the pair of 1/72nd plus valks in that case, Mount them on a double stand.
