ValkAddict Posted September 7, 2021 Posted September 7, 2021 @sh9000 - How is the Autobot Ark? Worth getting? Saw him at Target and considered getting him, but held off as it is pricey.

Saw him at Target and considered getting him, but held off as it is pricey. I haven't opened it. I'll refer you to the best Transformers and 3rd Party Transformers reviewer on this forum @mikeszekely when he gets his and reviews it.

Thanks for the love, @sh9000 I've got the Ark pre-ordered at Pulse, but they don't seem to be in a hurry to ship it.
MKT Posted September 8, 2021 Posted September 8, 2021 Recent Megazone 23 purchase arrivals: After getting my first Garland toy from Arcadia back few years ago, I went on a hunt for the older Yamato releases, starting with the repaints. Kudos to @jenius for his reviews. The original Yamato red Garland always eluded me, in a sense it was tough to find one that hasn't had exploding metal bars or shoulders, or the very elusive red metallic gift set version with fixed joints & better paint. So when the normal red appeared on Mandarake for super low price and with no remarks of damaged or broken joints, I jumped on it. Duly checked when it arrived and very stoked that all the joints are indeed intact on this copy.. As luck would have it, when it rains it pours, but in a good way. Right after the red Garland purchase, the red metallic gift set version suddenly shows up for sale elsewhere. I have never, ever seen this pop up anywhere before, so was even more excited with this purchase and the anticipation of it when the package was on the way.. And so it finally arrives.. Although the DVD is quite obsolete now, the icing on this red metallic version is the VERY nice artbook that comes with it.. Can't wait to set all these up with the other Garlands..

Is that still being produced? I guess you can't beat a tried and true classic that that?!
grymg Posted September 9, 2021 Posted September 9, 2021 Yeah, Tamiya is slowly rereleasing all of the classics. I remember the Frog the most vividly out of all their old ones. Always saw it perched on the shelf behind the counter but didn't have the courage to ever buy one, they were quite expensive.
no3Ljm Posted September 9, 2021 Posted September 9, 2021 True. The Grasshopper is such a classic. My wish back then is The Hornet. But if I really going to buy a Tamiya R/C today, I want to have the Porsche 959. Vroom vroom!

I'm with you @no3Ljm 959! But I wouldn't want to scratch that one.

But I wouldn't want to scratch that one. What's so funny is that I've seen some video reviews of the Tamiya Porsche 959 and mostly say that the top is so fragile and it's hard to open it up from the frame. I wonder, if I should just scout for a 1/18 Porsche 959 diecast car to display with rather than to play with it. Hahaha!

Yeah, I'd take one too but I'm happy with what I got and not willing to pay the price for anything else unless I catch a new release without the aftermarket tax.

Could be better in a few areas (mainly the blade) but it’s a pretty impressive piece overall.
