My VF-31C has been sitting there for the past 4 days, and that bothers me. I'm assuming you mean LAX customs? They're just notoriously slow at times, and the postal service is getting worse and worse about updating tracking information. I've had stuff appear stuck at LAX for a week before with no updates, and had it show up at my door with no tracking update at all.

Yea i couldnt pass up on the price. Never really been a fan of the SOC Baikanfu design. This might not be as anime accurate but it works with my tastes

Post office told me that it's in Customs, but the internet says different. It's been there since the 7th of October, and I was hoping that it would have been here sooner. I need my VF-31C... I need it...

ZorClone Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Took a chance on another 3rd party Chinese accessory, this time for Figuarts Tony Stark. It arrived yesterday and I have to say, I am completely thrilled with this piece.

Thanks Slave IV. Cool to have one. But it also means that I need to collect those Hall of Armors too (which I don't want it in the first place coz it's expensive) if ever I'm going to get one of this just to complete the setup. Oh well...
ZorClone Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Nah just print out a background of them and put it behind the figure

ZorClone Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 lol no just print the background scene of all of them as they were in the movie Or build them out of lego?

I mostly have the ones from Figuarts so printing it with them on it is not going to be ok. Hehehe. As for Lego, it will end up more expensive since I need to find the proper shape and color thru third party sellers.

Just need to tweak it to your liking. If you have PS, I can go over the steps with you. Cool. I thought it was PS. Speaking of Tony Stark, I got a 1/18 Audi R8 for $13.99 to go with my 1/18 Tony Stark since he drove one in one of the movies. He can also drive the Lamborghini Centenario for an upgrade. Also got some cool Hot Wheels.
Xigfrid Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Got these nice Russian military vehicles on Ebay, they were advertised as 1/50 scale but Arcadia's Isamu and Keith tells me they fit well as 1/60 scale

Yeah the Iron Man figures are 1/18 (3.75”) scale and are the same size as GI Joe, Marvel Universe, Marvel Legends 3.75”, etc.
grymg Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 Kup and Soundwave came in from AE, the paintjobs came out better than expected!

Are they ones Hasbro made during Iron Man 2? Some of them look like ones I have from that line but if that's the case I didn't realize they made that many. In either case I would really like to get a Tony figure to add to my lineup so any info you could provide on that one would be appreciated.

Yeah Hasbro made them and there were a lot of 3.75” armor variants for their Iron Man 2 and Iron Man 3 lines. I have quite a few but there are actually more that were released. The IM2 Drones that they released were cool too. The 3.75” Tony Stark came in the Iron Man 3 Hall of Armor 6 pack like this. Today I got a 1/18 Corvette Stingray for my 1/18 Black Widow.

ScrambledValkyrie Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 A few things that came in today, to help finally expand my Macross collection beyond just valkyries -- plus a curious Hikaru.
Bahamutzyro Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Picked up a qmx 1/6 Spock. Loving the detail. Not hot toys, but excellent likeness and quality.

HardlyNever Posted October 14, 2017 Posted October 14, 2017 Got Neca Thrall and Sylvanas for my bday. This completes my Neca Heroes the Storm collection. Unfortunately, the line has been killed off and we aren't getting anymore.
