Some where down the road I'll eventually find Kakizaki and some Cannon Fodders, as for today I will enjoy this new 1A. Overall it's in very good condition minus the shoulders which I figured might be cracked, good thing for Shapeways. @Lolicon If Sentinel actually makes a Dark Legioss & Ride Armor count me in. Expand Nice! What else do you need to complete the squadron?

Expand When I have some money saved up again the goal is to get Kakizaki with his fast packs, the fantasy is to have three VF-1A CF's with their FP's. I'll get there... one day.

Expand @Slave IV In bot mode I think they are just about darn near perfect, alt mode is mehh, but at this scale, I'm ok with that. I will mostly have these in robot mode anyway. Don't overpay for them, but quality wise they are great little figs!

Yeah, I haven’t been disappointed by any of the Newage figures I have. Just want better alt modes.

I got mine from a friend in Japan who was unloading his movie squadron some years back for cheap.

Expand Yeah, they look very nice indeed. My favorite is the 02 because of all the accessories and the color. I did find something wrong on the Unit 00, well not on the eva itself… I’ll wait until you get yours and see if you’ll notice. The 2 youtube reviews I watched totally missed it. 🤪

I miss those days when Macross toys were reasonably priced and you could wait for it to be released, watch/read a review, see if it’s a solid release w/out issues and then decide to get it or not. But if you read the posts from back then, we always still found something to complain about 🤣. Sometimes you truly can’t know how much of a good thing you have until it’s gone.
