Giantman Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 Good lord, I wonder if you took the combined monthly purchases of all our members and added it up, we could probably fund a small army somewhere. I have a decent job, but this is proof that I need to go back to school. If my damn kids weren't so hungry ans needed new clothes all the damn time I could keep up, little parasites!

Happy to have now: Super parts YF-29 Alto Custom 1/60, VF-1S Strike Roy Focker Hi-metal R, Arcadia Reactive Armor for VF-0 1/60 & Super parts TV, party time!!!! Extremely nice haul. Where did you buy the Strike Roy?
Tking22 Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Got a couple more things in, I'm very excited to get my hands on both! NY sent me one of there little extra shipping invoice charges for Guntank, not much, $10, but still annoying. Not too annoying now, this is a pretty damn big box. I forgot all the bits and bobs that come with Guntank, it's a pretty neat setup with the diorama background.
sh9000 Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) Quite a few packages coming in soon. Everything Macross related except for the Dougram. Package # 1: HMR VF-1J Milia x3 Package # 2: 1/60 Queadluun Rau Milia, CM's Milia set, HM VF-1 Super Parts x4, HM VF-1A Hikaru, 1/100 VF-19S Blazer, 1/100 VF-1D Battroid x2 Package # 3: HMR Dougram, Tenjin Valkyries, Tenjin Valkyries Second Sortie, Macross Frontier Archives, DX SV-262 Edited April 5, 2017 by sh9000
HardlyNever Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 I'm a pretty big Blizzard fan, so I decided to grab these up while they were on sale. Got these four for under $40 USD, shipped (kinda makes you feel bad for paying so much for Macross stuff, for just a second).
Giantman Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) One of the hard points on my Arcadia VF-1S has gotten a little sloppy, causing too much play and not enough friction for the missiles. It will still tab in and I can display it but the smallest bump makes it swivel around. I was thinking of using a toothpick and applying a dab of Testors model glue inside to tighten it up but thought I'd get some input and advice from my fellow Macross colllectors. Any and all suggestions are needed, thanks. Edited April 5, 2017 by Giantman Misspell

Any and all suggestions are needed, thanks. I would try using Pledge Future polish first. It shouldn't damage the plastic and works as a good thickening agent. I have used on several figures and models. https://www.amazon.com/Johnson-Pledge-Floor-Multi-Surface-Finish/dp/B000ARPH4C/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1491401895&sr=8-1&keywords=future+floor+polish

iguanaman8989 Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 Here's my most recent HLJ haul. DX Sv-262Hs and all the currently available DX Kyuranger mecha, plus the cockpit set #1.
Slave IV Posted April 5, 2017 Posted April 5, 2017 A bunch of new Star Wars figures added to my main Star Wars shelf:

derex3592 Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Grandma homemade quilts are the best. Fact. In other news... new to me and 1st (prob only) YF-29 Supers! Love it or hate it... the Ozma 29 looks menacing with all this on!
Tking22 Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Not exactly box art quality but you get the picture, it's a pretty neat little corner of the White Base hangar deck.
Giantman Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 I won my Arcadia Yf-19 bid on eBay. $297, after which I found one on jungle for $200. Damnit. Oh well.
barurutor Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 the jungle one is B condition though: Comments: Outer Box damage(moderate) / Discoloration on figure probably may not be worth saving $97 over
blackconvoy_D01 Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 Greetings from Jungle- Japan. Welcome to your new home Rod.

Sildani Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Well done all! A YF-29B is high on my list of Valkyries to get.
F360 Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) found my ultra low cost display stands today. $1.50 before taxes/ each. below is not my pic but that's what these stands will be use for. perhaps stack it sideways so it'll be more like the promo pics with some SH figuarts in the front.

Slave IV Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 13 hours ago, chyll2 said: Refrigerator magnet Nice! Speaking of refrigerator magnets, I just got this... Revoltech Spiderman from their new Amazing Yamaguchi series. Becoming the best 1/12 comic book style figure line ever imo! And on the other had, I just got this Marvel Legend figure too and it's probably the best I've seen from the line. Beautiful sculpt, paint and useable articulation...something uncommon on most Marvel Legends.
