spacemanoeuvres Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Wooooo finally got my first set of 31Js. The one from NY took over 5 weeks to arrive via SAL registered

I just get too nervous with expensive items although ive never had any problems with SAL. Now that you mention it my replacement 31F was sent via SAL and its still in Origin Post

This is only the second time in years that it's taken an extraordinarily long time to receive a package. The first time it happened was at Christmas so I wasn't too worried, but I was definitely sweating this delivery

sh9000 Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Nice Shuttle Tydirium vlenhoff. What scale is it? Damn I remember when I used to have a bunch of the large Star Wars vehicles for the 3.75" figures like the Shuttle Tydirium, AT-AT, and 2 1/2' Millennium Falcon. They were all MISB though and the huge boxes took up too much space so I sold them all.
Bahamutzyro Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Some more money wasted.... lol but hey, toys are my life!
vlenhoff Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 It is Star Wars miniture Xwing game ship. It is 3d printed and it is very detailed, and it comes with a stand. I was about to get the action fleet version, but I always thought it looked poorly detailed. I came across this one, and i'll use it as a replacement for the action fleet one.

I've seen a layoff talk and pictures about those lately. Seems like a game and set of vehicles made for me! Especially considering how big and expensive the Chogokin SW vehicles will likely be. I should grab some but sure it's a deep rabbit hole one I start.
HardlyNever Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Got my spartan today. Set up a little modern vs vintage (the deadly oversized zentradi).
sh9000 Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Zentradi come in different sizes and I still use those with my HMR. My third Spartan came in today.
anubis20 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) Got my HLJ loot, Spartan included like everyone else Im super pumped about Figma TP Link and the Myth Cloth EX Saga Saga Premium Set Edited June 6, 2017 by anubis20
Alex GS Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 I don't know if this counts a new toy I hope I'm not breaking any rule, but thing is I got this last week as a Bandai Model kit of Masterchief and today I start/finished the assembly, this is my first kit I build and my entry to start building Gundams, did a bit of sticker custom cutting for the base and putting those metallic lines in there, also I placed that Bandai logo in the middle.

I've never had much interest in the X-Wing tabletop game, but the little ships are top notch for the most part. I've been meaning to pick up the Falcon and Shuttle for a while, but I've had the Tantive IV set for a while, and it's probably the best mass-produced representation that ship has ever gotten. Far as what I've been picking up, I'm worried I'm about to fall down the third-party transformers rabbit hole.. my two newest acquisitions.. and yes, that's the DX VF-31J.

Looks good! Im looking forward to see if Maktoys Seeker is worth getting. So far, I haven't seen a Seeker design worth buying but hoping that is it. Bot mode looks good but the flaps under the thrusters in jet mode are killing me.

I might have to get myself a Thundercracker in the near future too, but these are a little too big to collect them all. It's a revised MP-11 mold, but with the bigger legs sadly. My ideal mold would rework the original MP-03 to use the newer fold out heels, but keep the slimmer legs, and fold the tails and stabs up into a backpack like some of the much smaller seeker molds do. Honestly, seeing what people are doing with transformers is making me seriously consider getting into designing my own. I know I could work some magic on a custom seeker mold, and I spent half of the afternoon today brainstorming how to make an MP-level Dreadwing combiner out of an F-16 and Tornado.

Do it if you have the skills! Like I said, I'm not happy with any seeker I've seen yet and haven't bought any because of it...Won't even pay for the KOs. Maketoys seems to have done an incredible job on their bot but just like their Jazz, they have some strange kibble in alt mode that ruins it.

She's really nice too, I got her and DX Link Saturday, Figma really has come a long way since the old Skyward Sword Link figure. Night and day difference really, sculpt, articulation, everything is better.

Tking22 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 VERY happy right now, came home to this absolute holy grail, the Chogokin GX-72 Megazord! Once again, I waited for the US Bluefin release, I really wanted my US packaging like with Voltron.

Viiof Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Recently picked up a variety of TF:MP KOs. Despite having to do little fixes here and there on the majority of them, I'm pretty happy. Certainly helps that I paid either half or under half for all of them. Still debating on if I want to continue fixing Soundwave though, since they missed a gold paint application on his left knee.
dapro Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Haven't really gotten much this year, but got these in the mail today.
Slave IV Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Nice! I just got some Monsterarts baddie reinforcements for Godzilla to beat down too. Gotta find the time to open them...

If you like the regular release you should try to find the SKL Final Count ver. It is an excellent figure. The SRC line is really good and I love all the figures I have from the line.

I did some research on the Mazinkaizer SRC line, and I got this one cause it was a bit cheaper and also is the Color version, those images doesn't do justice at all in how impressive the figure looks, and yes I will try to get the SKL Final Count ver. cause after knowing the insane high quality of the figure I know is worth every penny Edited June 7, 2017 by Alex GS

I bought it a few months ago but it's my first anime statue (I think) and probably my last. it's nice but I figure I'd rather have action figures with unlimited poses.
