It goes well with the Figuarts Batman. Nice! Yeah I meant the Mafex looked more like Heath Ledger than the Figuarts version. The Figuarts Joker looks more like some dude cosplaying as the Joker lol

Yap, really happy about this model Just love it, and colors, best head in my opinion etc, so much fun! Now i trying to decide want i superparts for 25a or better without it And i have issues with 29 and heared about same issues on 25, but my model is really solid and i'm really enjoyed it Thanks for all Hope 31a will be not worse then 25a (:

And I don’t think it’s the worst. They already re-engineered recent DX releases so it’s very hard to compare with the old ones.
SuNDuK Posted January 27, 2018 Posted January 27, 2018 (edited) Sorry, I meant another thing. I mean 25a is really good model and i'm really enjoyed it(it's really much better then my 29 ozma). And i hope next 31a model, which i will buy, will be same good enough at least Edited January 27, 2018 by SuNDuK
Lolicon Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Received my concept Enterprise-C. Only half the darkened windows on the saucer underside are painted. Strangely enough, both halves have the same number of windows, but one half has all of them with "lights on". Did any of you guys get a replacement unit yet?
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 2nd wave of KC SD Valks from HK.. Max 1J TV Super.. and Kakazaki TV 1A.. I just ordered the CF 1A TV w/fast packs to round out my collection of these beasties.. And BBTS apparently sent my Fokker Super 1S TV... but getting to the east coast apparently takes longer then HK to the US..
ZorClone Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Eaglemoss CS replied to my email about the Voyager XL. They have dispatched a replacement, supposedly.
derex3592 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Will be interesting to see if it's any better....what are you going to do with the 1st one now? Battle damage it???

That's an interesting colour for Sheryl Nome, I wonder why that they didn't use either the Red or Blue as per the Megahouse version.

I wanted the blue version as well, they will probably release her as a web exclusive

spanner Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Pre-ordered this a while back at amiami and it just arrived. AUTOart Lexus LC500. Being resin (or composite as they call it) instead of diecast so it's a little lighter in weight but it's so beautifully built and the attention to detail is fantastic! The paintwork is just gorgeous! Very impressed and pleased with this purchase! And to think on several occasions I nearly cancelled this order! So glad I didn't! Edited January 29, 2018 by spanner
ZorClone Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Sexy. Wait, the door to the gas cap doesn't open up? Literally un-displayable. Send it back.
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Located a Voltron Classic Black Lion locally @ Target these things are apparently sorta hard to locate right now, one of the employees told me someone came in and bought up most of what was put out. Scalpers? I just want 1 complete set... lol And the Mailman was busy today! BBTS Finally delivered my KC Hikaru TV Super 1S.. need to find a Fokker 1S now.. grr. And my Hi-Metal R collection has finally caught up! Fokker DYRL Strike, Hikkaru DYRL Strike (duplicate), CF-1A (#3), and Regult (duplicate).
sh9000 Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Got a third VF-19S so that now I can convert 2 of them into VF-19F’s. Also got an enemy mecha to accompany them.

Jipped! Funny though my Paudi Model Infiniti Syline has an opening fuel filler door and it cost 1/3 what the AUTOart Lexus did.. though the AUTOart model is vastly superior everywhere else!
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 HLJ on the ball.. I didn't expect this that quickly.. at least my Hi Metal-R collection is current again
jenius Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Hlj hasn't shipped my VE1 yet... Sniffle. It went to PW which always causes a brief delay.
Sanity is Optional Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 I just leave mine in the PW for a while so I can combine shipments. Saves me a bit of cash, which I can then spend on more Macross...

sh9000 Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Make sure to check for looseness on the HM VF-1S. The wings, feet, or other parts might come like that right out of the box.

That said, I've got mine set up in fighter right now, and sent the strike pack over to one of my HMRs instead.

I thought they didn't include those until later releases.
