chyll2 Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 I've check the individual and combined review of the toy. I would say it is really worth the price though the pricing is beyond what I can spend.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 who is this? he looks brutal and combat ready.
derex3592 Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 I know it's the combaticons which together form Bruticus. I had the old school G1 set of this, and it was always one of my favs.
Saburo Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 I've check the individual and combined review of the toy. I would say it is really worth the price though the pricing is beyond what I can spend. Each of the figs is nice, they keep their G1 lineage. The combined mode is really nice, there is a ton of detail but it makes it look really busy. Also its really tall, about 18" to the top of arm (Blast off). who is this? he looks brutal and combat ready. Brutal and combat ready... A good name would be Bruticon or Bruticus? Bruticus is its. I know it's the combaticons which together form Bruticus. I had the old school G1 set of this, and it was always one of my favs. As a kid the only G1 combiner I had was Devastator. I was jealous of my friend who had all of the combiners and pretty much all of the transformers. He was nice and let us play with them.

Saburo Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 i posted this in the TF thread when i picked him up about 2 months ago. Bruticus and Metroplex! NICE!
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 Bruticus and Metroplex! NICE! not as nice as yours! btw, do you own the titan class metroplex? just wondering how tall is that compared to your 3p combiner pictured above.

derex3592 Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 I only ever had Devastator, Bruticus, the Protecto Bot one and the Ariel Bot one, whatever he was. Ohh and I think the Decepticon dinasour one which was later, don't remember the name of that one.
Valkyrie Driver Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 I'm still super stoked about my VF-19Advance, and I'm still waiting on my VF-19 master file book. I want it to be the Spring semester so I can take Japanese... Hopefully this book will give me the incentive to study hard so that one day I'll be able to read it...
Saburo Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 not as nice as yours! btw, do you own the titan class metroplex? just wondering how tall is that compared to your 3p combiner pictured above. Yep I do have a Titan Class Metroplex, he's standing on my at my desk at work (on the left). As for the height of the 3P Bruticus, I think he's just under Metroplex's chest.

I took Japanese in college and I am really rusty now, because I barely used it and didn't keep up with it.

I've got the first semester under my belt, but that was 5 years ago. I still kinda remember my grammar, but my vocabulary and my writing skills are very rusty. I need to study up if I'm going to do well in the second semester. I have confidence I'll do well, languages come fairly easy to me.
spanner Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) I guess this is Macross and toy related.. I managed to score a 6" Flighpose stand and two other Tamiya 1/72 display stands from a guy locally for $16! Which essentially makes the Flightpose stand only $5.33! Laughing! The Tamiya stands won't work at all for any of my Valkyries but I do have a few unassembled 1/72 Tamiya jets which im sure will work well with! Edited August 13, 2015 by spanner76
akteon Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Finally broke down and started buying some Frontier valks (yeh I know I'm late to the game) ...
Lolicon Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Finally broke down and started buying some Frontier valks (yeh I know I'm late to the game) ... Wow! That's a nice haul! Especially the armor!
Saburo Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) Sweet work pc setup Saburo! Thank you, my setup at home is very similar to this, just I have a desktop at home rather than a laptop. metroplex holding up the center screen with one hand it's glued to his fingers! He makes sure I am working. Finally broke down and started buying some Frontier valks (yeh I know I'm late to the game) ... Now that's the way to get into Frontier Valks! Ozmas with Armored and Super parts! Edited August 14, 2015 by Saburo
spanner Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Finally broke down and started buying some Frontier valks (yeh I know I'm late to the game) ... Better late than never! And! You choose very well for your first dip in the Frontier pond of riches! They will look awesome on display all kitted up in their super and armor parts! well done!
derex3592 Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Welcome to the Frontier Fold! It's a slippery slope!
mickyg Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 I'm not into the 25S, but only because I cannot afford the armor. If it was available for a good price, I'd be all over it. So, super jealous of your purchase!
akteon Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks guys ... I got really luckily, the VF-25S + armor was $300 on eBay, which is less than some are selling just the armor for so I couldn't pass it up. I went from thinking I wasn't sure if I wanted one VF-25S to now thinking I need to get a third to have all 3 types (stock, armor, super) and show off all 3 modes ... yes, that's the addiction talking
mickyg Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 That is an absolute steal! You are one fortunate individual. Nice pickup!

I paid $300 for just the armor parts alone! I'm not into the 25S, but only because I cannot afford the armor. If it was available for a good price, I'd be all over it. So, super jealous of your purchase! yeah! the VF-25S is pretty sweet suited up with Armors! Just how bad ass does this b!tch look! Edited August 15, 2015 by spanner76
mickyg Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Exactly. I don't like the 25S at all. Until it's suited up, then I love it!
spanner Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Really!? Not at all!? Id love to get another so i could display it clean in fighter!
Lolicon Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 You need at least 3 so you can display it with super packs as well.
chyll2 Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Exactly. I don't like the 25S at all. Until it's suited up, then I love it! I belong to the same club. Even super parts wont cut it for me
Saburo Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Armored VF-25S Ozma ver. love After looking at these photos, I am going to reshoot them.
Keiichi Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 My haul for the week! The 25S armored parts arrived 20 minutes ago, so I'm just in time to join the armored fun. With the 25S armored parts, I've finally completed my 25-series collection (all valks and the appropriate super/armored parts for each one), woohoo! Now I just need to find a place to display them all, haha.
ChaoticYeti Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) That is awesome! Great haul, too. I still need a g. Edited August 15, 2015 by ChaoticYeti
akteon Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 Nice haul ... I never played Macross 30, but all these posts make me want to pick up a YF-29B
Sildani Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Problem with the 29 is, they never made a CF version. I don't think the B counts. Saburo, are you getting a 27 Grace? Hopefully you'll take many tasty pics!
