Glad to see I'm not the only Battletech fan here You definitely aren't- there are quite a few of us floating around here. Here's an old picture of my stack of stuff (underneath the Macross and RT stuff):

Pictured below with my original battered Technical Readout 3025 (luckily I have a couple more in good condition). Grabbed these thanks to @Shawn's visit to Wise Guys to see the GTC Legacy inventory. Not a fan of Battletech, but this is cool trivia!
Froy Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Hell yeah! One down one to go. After getting Arcadiaed I finally was able to down a Yamato Max for a reasonable price. Box is a bit banged but it is OK for me.

ridgebacks Posted August 22, 2023 Posted August 22, 2023 Finally recovered my account. Kinda surprised some company actually makes this kind of diecast. The quality is quite good for the scale. And the vinyl is 99% game accurate.

sh9000 Posted August 24, 2023 Posted August 24, 2023 HMR VF-0D x3. Tiny Session VF-31S, VF-31C, and VF-31E. DX VF-25F Alto Super Valkyrie Revival.
Shawn Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Do ALL the Bandai HMRs have the horribly striated cardboard on the box? I love the Tenjin art, but getting a good angle to see it is horrible when there is any lighting around. It screams cheap to me, which is frustrating! I only have 3 HMRs (GBP/0S/0D) and the boxes disappoint for display purposes. rant over.
sh9000 Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 The HMR VF-0S, VF-0S Genius Blue, VF-0D, and VF-1J Armored Valkyrie Revival come in packaging with striated cardboard. It's supposed to be thicker and possibly stronger than the usual HMR thinner cardboard packaging. All other HMR releases come in thinner cardboard packaging.
Shawn Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 Thank you for the info! I only got into HMR on the GBP/0S so its all I'm experience with
Chronocidal Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 I don't remember for sure, and mine are buried in storage at the moment, but did the VF-2SS have the same sort of cardboard, just from the larger box size and heavier contents?
sh9000 Posted August 28, 2023 Posted August 28, 2023 No. Both versions of the HMR VF-2SS came in terribly thin cardboard packaging.
sh9000 Posted September 1, 2023 Posted September 1, 2023 Tiny Session VF-31F and VF-31J. HMR Orguss x2. Mafex Robocop Murphy Head Damage Version x2. Chogokin Heroes Wolverine.

R0P3-F15H Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 I think this is the start of a bad habit…
borgified Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 Well you asked for it @R0P3-F15H. Getting Beer and getting Valks don't mix as your going to either get hung over or toss your valks against the wall since your not able to do transformation correctly due to frustration. That saying, good starting in getting one of the iconic mechas in this franchise.
Spark-O-Matic Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 Got these cuties in for my Fembot Collection. the ones on left and right came in last week, while the center one came in today. With the Bandai one it's going on 15yrs old and surprisingly it's got a much better build quality, comparable paint detail while just feeling more premium in hand with strong articulation throughout the body at the bending and flexing areas. I got her for $45 and that was a very good deal. the only drawback if you consider it to be is the paperwork/Instructions and everything was in Japanese only but as expected the instructions had well done step by step pictures.
