Plastic Cretins also did a little resin pilot figure that fits in the cockpit. 2 hours ago, Penguin sushi said: Ooo thanks i have to check it out. I just got mine actually. They arrived at the same time as my VF-1Ds. I highly recommend it
tekering Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Is that standing Zentradi soldier from Plastic Cretins as well?

rdrunner Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Sorry to see the squashed box, @scand For those of us who ordered the DX VF-1J from amazon, did anyone have similar issues with the packaging from Amazon JP?

I’ve ordered from amazon whenever possible. The shipping packages have arrived a little worn but haven’t had anything arrived damaged yet *fingers crossed*
kkx Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Shipping delay from AmiAmi for my 1D. Receive an email saying that they messed up the shipping weight and the package was returned to them. Will re-invoice. They have handled many 1D boxes by now, how can the weight we wrong?

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but what's with Hikaru's smile and wave to the "camera" from the cockpit? Poor Minmei is about to fall off the 1D's hand! (Much respect to Master Tenjin for the added humour!) Edited April 24, 2019 by rdrunner

iguanaman8989 Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 April’s HLJ haul. Now I’ve got all four main Beast Wars Masterpiece figures. The rest of the DX Ryusoulger stuff and role play gear (I’ve got a bunch of the collectibles already and want to hear all those different noises!) (Also, figures that HLJ would still have the initial release Beginning Soul but not the current promotion Kata Soul)

Yep...that's how they pack. The box for my DX 1J was completely open and left on my porch like this: Luckily, no damage to the box inside.
borgified Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Since where talking about squished boxes from Amazon.jp at this moment, has anyone wondered about how is Amazon.jp boxes going to fair when Arcadia's PE VE-1 gets shipped out and delivered to those who ordered it on the first week of May?

It's concerning but I try not to worry too much about toys. These things bring me joy and I leave the worrying to other crap that happens in life. If anything, I think the shrink wrap helps prevent the box inside from getting damaged.
spacemanoeuvres Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 HMR goodies. Finally got a second regult missile set so I can open one

Shizuka the Cat Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Sigh... my latest purchase from YJA.: Yamato 1/60 v2 VF-1A DYRL Hikaru with Super Parts Note: This is after I had just recently bought the non-Super Part version of the same toy. *sigh* Anyways, I was watching the most recent Godzilla King of Monsters movie trailer, and I noticed.... they are fighting in Boston! For 4 years my dorm room had a view of the Charles River, so I'd recognize that CITGO sign anywhere!
Tking22 Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Got some stuff in from HLJ. Love the 1D, no real complaints, Captain Marvel is a bit meh, but Broly and Gogeta are fantastic! Love these guys, highly recommended, just like the DB Super Broly movie, I'm 12 and still love Dragon Ball, come at me.
arrow Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) I was in japan for the holidays last week. I was in the Nakano Broadway area and was able to get a V2 1/60 VF-1A (loose with no box, missiles or gun) for $25 and wandered into a pre-owned cellphone/ipad store and got a very good price on a 2018 mac mini.

borgified Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Another Yammie 1/48 grail came in from Manda before I left for work and no customs slapped on it. Getting the corresponding SSP is another question.
nightmareB4macross Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Check out Ebay. You will find a trusted seller with an SSP with broken tab and at a great price. I met him in person and can vouch for him as really great seller and person. Good Luck.

dragonstar1982 Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Just got this in today. Really looking forward to this!!
Saburo Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Throw back to 2015 when I framed some Valkyrie photos. Not really a purchase of Macross items, but supplies for Macross related materials.

Keep your eye on this link on BigBadToyStore, they haven't gotten in the US Bluefin stock yet, I've seen Broly go on and off of pre-order for the last few days or so. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/84451
