Comicave's are basically a metal figuarts. I only have 3 of them Igor, Shotgun, and Silver Centurion and they are all really well done and the LEDs just make them better than a figuarts IMO. As far as comparing them with Re:Edits i would still pick up a Re:Edit before these every time. They have everything IMO articulation, finish, and the LEDs. 1 hour ago, no3Ljm said: Great purchases everyone! Does it come with a Paul Walker figure? no, this was car only. Im a little disappointed that at 1:18 the wheels dont turn on this one Edited June 15, 2017 by anubis20

Good old Yamato. The dumbest valk mistake I made was selling my 30th anniversary Roy and Hikaru, thinking that the Arcadia would be an upgrade. Now I have a pink Roy. Sheeeeeesh.

Can you post some photos and thoughts about it? Its pretty good, I LOVE the cars from the 2nd F&F so for me its perfect. Only the doors open and the front wheels do not turn which is a little bit disappointing. Aside from that its a good representation of the on screen R34. Dont mind the missing tail light lens.. I found it in the box

If I'm gonna battle traffic getting there and idiots while I'm there I'm definitely going to check my favorite stores, which means I HAVE to hit the Lego Store. Saw this absolute beast of a set sitting on the shelf and I had to have it, most expensive impulse buy in quite a while but it looks insane. Third largest Lego set ever made, and I love Ghostbusters to death, it's retiring next year and then it will be impossible to find for less then a small boat, so yeah, I had to bite. I have that set. It took a while to build but really nice. I have ecto 1 as well.

derex3592 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) The only 1:18 car from F&F I ever really wanted was the orange modded targa top Supra from the first film...that car was sweet. Edited June 16, 2017 by derex3592

Hint hint Arcadia!! Thanks. With the recent announcement of the Arcadia M&M re-releases, I was thinking it might happen be that Arcadia would eventually re-release this super bundle as well. But who knows how long that might take, and also… On June 14, 2017 at 0:42 PM, davidwhangchoi said: so much better than the premium pink arcadia …so decided to go ahead and hunt this one down.

Though you'd need an entire room!

spacemanoeuvres Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Finally got my Spartans from NY and also an NXEDGE EVA-01 from amazon
ArchieNov Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 This is possibly the best LEGO set ever. Enough details to act like a scale model, functioning stage separations, comes with Lunar Module and Command Module splashdown diorama, 1 meter tall, 1969 pieces at $120 retail price. The rocket may look simple on the outside, but man the build and engineering on the inside is absolutely MIND-BLOWING.
vlenhoff Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) This little thing is fun. It almost has a Gerwalkiish mode. Edited June 17, 2017 by vlenhoff

sh9000 Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 Got another Nousjadeul-Ger and finally had a chance to clean it. Personally I think they scale well with HMR. Please excuse the well kept MISB collection in the background.

spacemanoeuvres Posted June 18, 2017 Posted June 18, 2017 (edited) Got a big haul from Zenmarket this week VF-1S and Defender are sealed. YF-21 was a store front item; box is worn but the contents look new. Defomecha were a relatively cheap impulse buy. Two sets of four and I believe each set was 1000 yen plus shipping.
