Making us buy missiles separately for VFs, making us buy the damn Mark 50 over and over just to get a few accessories. I'm surprised Cap's shield and Thanos' double-bladed sword aren't being sold separately as a TWE weapon pack. Now, now, now, my dear good sir. Don’t give Bandai such bright ideas.

I haven’t had time to do much other than check them out and take that quick pic but initial impressions are real good. They feel overall as good as the Re:Edit Armors I have. These are a bit hefier but the articulation is not as refined. A decent trade off especially considering these are old designs compared to the newer Armors Sentinel focused on. Bottom line is these are a great addition to my Iron Man collection. I just hope either One:12, Amazing Yamaguchi or Re:Edit makes pointy face mask and Silver Centurion and I’ll be a happy camper.
Podtastic Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) So excited about my aquisition of Bowen 1960 Captain Mar-vel. Ok I know it's not a toy but hey as we all know "Wheresoever Kree sets foot so shall Kree law hold sway."e la sway". Edited April 4, 2019 by Podtastic

Just the MK50 again and again and again. Yup and you dont even get a completely accurate set even after buying all three Mk 50 sets Where is the shield? Where are those blocks he was punching Thanos with? 20 hours ago, no3Ljm said: This is really true. Bandai learned this from Hot Toys -- just the Mark 7 over and over again. @Mommar & @anubis20 By the way, what can you guys say about the Revoltech Gambit? I think Gambit is good but the face just pops off too easily on my copy. But once posed it looks really good 14 hours ago, Lolicon said: I think "doin' us dirty" is Bandai's new MO going into the future.

If they included the parts to at least have a vanilla Mk 50 then I would be more ok with it but as it is the one I just got comes with no arms and no feet WTF! They threw in a stand to try and pad the damn box and justify the cost

Just want to see how tall it is. Or better yet, if you also have the Revoltech Wolverine, that would be cool to see too.

Lolicon Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Finally got around to opening the backlog of parcels. Got a new shirt.
borgified Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) Picked up my copy of the Q-rau Max from Manda this afternoon (which was sitting at the post since Wednesday). Interestingly enough, @dafob also picked one up as well, although used condition (a day after I ordered my copy), and his came with a bonus: CMS Max (Zentran suit). Edited April 5, 2019 by borgified
sh9000 Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 I think I’m going to stick with Marvel Legends for 6” scale figures with a bigger universe of MCU and comic book characters that fit in well with each other.

Both of which are out of scale with SHF Cap.

These are comic characters so think of the other lines as different representations by different artists, which is what they are. Also helps that the figures are way better but they also come with a price tag to match. You know you want them. Either way, I’m glad there are other companies making Marvel and Star Wars figures and I like the Hasbro offerings as well. Especially since they go deep into the rosters. Speaking of which, I just picked these up: I’ve been hoping for some version of the Jump Troopers since they showed up in Star Tours.

I haven’t opened them yet but my guess is the same single jointed elbows as the other Stormtroopers. Scratch that...just opened one and it has double jointed elbows and a surprise piece I’ve never seen before. Stay tuned for pics.

Slave IV Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Here you go @Mommar OK, I kind of love this thing! I'll probably buy some more if they go on sale.

Shizuka the Cat Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) I just received word from my adviser this morning that at the end of this semester, I get to officially go from being a doctoral student (one who has yet to finish all course work and comprehensive exams) to a doctoral candidate (just has dissertation left)! YAY! Sorry for posting something non-toy or even non-Macross related. I am just so happy that I had to share! I am sooo going to go celebrate tonight, get drunk from 1 strawberry daiquiri after getting carded, go dancing, and finally cosplay for my fiance! Doctoral candidacy, here I come!!!!

I didn’t even realize Target had new SW for preorder until it was all sold out. NBD since I don’t really care about Luke and Han faced Troopers and there is always the much better Bandai lots for those.

On a side note, you do not realize how frustrating it is to shop for good Macross cosplay.

I can cosplay as micronized Klan Klan 2.) My fiance is turned on by my loliness, and LOVES it whenever I get carded.
