Looks great! What part of the leg is broken? It looks ok there.

The bottom of the upper thigh where the knee meets it is split in the back.  If I try to straighten the leg the peg pops right out.  The fabric helps to keep it tight at certain angles but posing is a massive bitch.

Pretty cool idea, that cape is held on by magnets in his chest.

Didn’t know about the magnet part, cool! The cape looks really good with the wires in it. That leg issue sucks though. Are you going to try to get a replacement?

I’ve never tried to get a replacement from Big Bad Toy Store.  I guess I should ask them about it.  It would be nice to have one I can reliably pose.

The one downside to the cape.  Well... there’s two in mt opinion.  The first isnthat it’s only wir d along the two outside edges and not along the bottom as well.  The other is that the angle the cape is cut at dorsn’t look great in a vanilla stance.  You have to do something action-oriented for it to look good.

Will see how it goes when I get mine. Neither downsides you mentioned bother me at all as I don’t do vanilla poses unless I have to (like with some ML and most Mattel DC figures) and it makes sense to me to not have a wire in the bottom edge. I guess if you really needed to, you could add a wire to the bottom edge. I would definitely try to get a replacement if it came broken though.

I am loving my Macross Plus Isamu's valkyries shelf.

Another option to complete the Isamu shelf,  your missing his YF-29 (that's from Frontier series). If you don't want to get it, then it's understandable.

Just want to say that Isamu's YF-29, along with Ozma's YF-29 was featured in Macross 30 game only. Just in case she might think that you're referring that it was 'part' of Frontier series. ;)

Wasn't Isamu's YF-29 part of his Macross Frontier movie cameo?

And here’s September’s HLJ haul. Two new VS vehicles, Splash and Magic. One of the new Zoids kits I like the look of, the Muteki Shogun super minipla set, DX YF-19 with broken head laser, HG 00 Sky (Higher Than Sky Phase) (I’m a sucker for effect parts and other gimmicks, since I originally felt that the kit’s color scheme was too washed out. Finally, the Diver Ace Unit for my 00 Diver kit, it’s super cheap and helps to flesh out the kit a bit.

Yo, that's a sweet Armored VF-1S box art. Who's this Garland guy, and when did the 23rd Mega Zone-class colony ship take flight? :D

Expand  

Haha, sometime after the Mospeada class was destroyed I think.

Got another good toy today!

Now I need to get the rest of the Fantastic Four.  Thanks to @Mommar for the heads up.  I just ordered 2 Things from Walgreens.

Wow, they shipped pretty fast.

Yep! I ordered that one day they were available last week. Actually showed up yesterday. 

They seem to be turning up in stores but again, I haven’t seen it at any of the Walgreens by me. Hope you and anyone who wants one can get it. One of my favorite characters and I think it’s one of the best MLs made so far.

Thanks, I already posted in ML thread about it.

That figure looks really incredible.  Best Thing figure ever IMO.

Yeah, I think it’s one of the best MLs period to date. Only thing that would make this Thing better is if it had a bit more classic headsculpt.

The link for Thing won’t even work on my phone but I added to my cart and ordered earlier from the Marvel Legends search result page.  I did some digging and found the other 3 members online for cheap.

My first of two Marvel Legends Wolverine and Sentinel sets that I got for $60 each arrived.  I’ll pick it up tomorrow.
