sqidd Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) 13 hours ago, Sanity is Optional said: Steel Legends Kshatriya? How do you like it? Yes, SL. I think it's incredible. The quality is fantastic for anything. But at the price it's out of this world! It's a whole lot of toy period. It's a whole lotta lotta toy for the money! If Bandai was selling this it would be at least $500. If it said Bandai on the box I wouldn't have thought twice about it. Maybe that says something about me not having good taste. Maybe it says something about the toy being really good. Maybe both. I'd buy it again. Edited November 14, 2019 by sqidd
Golden Arms Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Let us know your impressions of the book. I sat in a panel at NYCC this year and they were talking about it. I wanted to pick up a copy, but never made time to do so.

CrossAir Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Pre-ordered this more than one and a half year ago just for fun as I liked the colors. Finally showed up today. I did not expect the box to be this huge. At first I thought someone has sent me a coffee machine No idea were to place her as she will not fit in my shelves, my wife will kill me.
Slave IV Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Always liked this car and it has a unique place in history. Was surprised to see it

Where did you order from? I got a notice that they'd be in at BBTS soon but they haven't shipped yet afaik. Edit: nevermind, it's in my pile of loot now. I'm looking forward to this one even though I already have the previous version, but the head doesn't articulate as well as I'd like. It looks like this one is a bit better articulated. Also coming out this month (maybe) are the latest improvements to the Aliens warrior and both the 1/8 (or1/10?) and 1/4 scale Big Chap. Can't wait to get that big alien, although I wish they'd do some others in 1/4 scale. Edited November 15, 2019 by Pontus

I still have the original release and will be making a dio with this version upon getting it. I have the Rhino Alien on pre-order from my LCS. Waiting for the eventual Flying Queen and Alien King tribute from Neca.

Slave IV Posted November 16, 2019 Posted November 16, 2019 Still, that Luke figure is hideous. I still bought that set myself. I got some HW SW too but for me it was the Mandalorian Ship and Walker. I should have that speeder bike and shuttle from previous releases.
Podtastic Posted November 16, 2019 Posted November 16, 2019 Kitz Concepts Rick/Hikaru finally arrived. I really like the closed visor option. Definitely will be in for Roy, Max etc. I just wish some toy company would finally get around to the main fig event, the armoured Zentradi soldier.
Slave IV Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Not new purchases but I know some people here can appreciate these toys I just uncovered from my collection. The Ferrari in front was one of my favorites and prized pieces. Just checked underneath and no wonder, it’s a ‘79 Tomica. The Green Pullback car to the right of it is the best pullback I’ve ever owned. Still looks and works as good as new after decades of use and abuse. That is German made quality! And a glance at what else was in the box I opened.
Slave IV Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 And something new Yoda, you seek Yoda hmmm?
Slave IV Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Oh man, seeing this thing: https://www.hlj.com/1-144-scale-mig-31-fire-fox-plastic-kit-hma75586 Makes me wish for a 1/100 - 1/60 diecast version. BTW, preordered the Sentinel Legioss from AJ. I'm sure it is popular here but not checking the Mospeada thread to find out, lol.
sh9000 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) Preordered the Riobot 1/48 Legioss AFC-01H at Amazon JP as well. I’ve been going through my collection also with my sealed figures. Many lovely Marvel Universe figures to retake pics of. Edited November 18, 2019 by sh9000

But, AmazonJP wasn't up by the time I turned in last night. And EVERY SINGLE thing I have gotten from AmazonJP has had a damaged box so far. I'll pay the extra couple bucks and get undamaged shipping (in theory). I'm also not sure how AmazonJP does shipping on multiples. Do the charge you shipping three times? If it's like AmazonUS, yes. Hobby Search will ship in one box and in theory that will be less expensive....maybe?? Either way, it's only going to be a couple $$ swing. Not the end of the world.
