Received my first Jada Toys Street Fighter 2 figure.

This is one of those rare toys, which I would be entirely happy to leave in box & display it as it is. It is not so much the packaging having some fancy shape or clever gimmicks, but just the overall presentation being just so satisfying to look at. I had wanted to unbox & have some in-hand feel to compare with the SHF SF2 figures, but I think I'll leave it in the box for now.

If you are talking about the Mark XLIX Rescue armour that Pepper Pots uses I only have a statue of her in my display. I did not have the room for the Hot Toys version.

That's one of them I've seen some red and green ones, the pilots had blonde hair and some where more generous in the chest sculping area.

DX Chogokin VF-1J Armored Valkyrie (Hikaru Ichijo) 1/48 scale.

I have been wanting to get this figure for some time now. I normally only buy figures that are on sale. It is one of the last most affordable DX VF-1 series on the market except for the VF-1A Angel Birds.

I thought I would add my Takatoku 1/76 scale figure. 😊

While there are many videos around showcasing this figure, I really like this video. I share this collectors enthusiasm for not only getting this figure, but collecting in general. Also when he was assembling the armour onto the VF-1J, he put the front foot armour upside down. Don't do that! ☺️ You may need to use CC watching the video.

@shazamHave fun with it! I really enjoy mine as well and it's a great box! Hope they also make the Roy Focker version they teased us with a couple of years ago.

My VF-31AX Armor just came in. Does anyone have a snapshot or better yet, short clip, from when Hayate jettisons his super armor available? I also just got my shipping notice on both my Armored VF-171 renewal AND my white Moshowtoys Takeda. Very excite!

SDFM or DYRL?  If the former, episode 9, "Miss Macross" @17:50 in this youtube video.

Thanks man, I have the jettison videos of the old school GBPs. I'm looking for the jettison of Zettai Live! Armor parts on the VF-31AX. I appreciate the link to the GBP videos. I simply cannot find anything on the Zettai Live! movie aside from brief clips =/. I'm subbed to multiple anime channels and cannot find the movie, either :(. Otherwise, I'd love to watch it and reference the jettison from the movie.

Finally!

2 weeks shipping via EMS but it is finally here.

Waited 10 years to get me one of this and Bandai give us a 50th anniversary version.

I was extremely lucky to land a PO several hours after they went up at HLJ.

8 kilos of pure awesomeness.

I day dream of the day we can see something like this but in the form of a VF-1.

Oh duh.  You said Hayate not Hikaru.  Doh, sorry, I was distracted by all the beautiful shots of VF-1 GBP above. I actually just purchased the movie with english subs from Amazon here if you wanna buy it.

Ummm.... I have a question.

I had pre-ordered the DX Chogokin VF-25G Super (Revival version) from Amazon.com (with the seller being Amazon) and my order info used to say it would be delivered November 16, 2023.... which never happened.  Now it gives no expected date and just says "Not Yet Shipped. We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date."

So I was wondering.... when was/is the actual release date for the VF-25G Revival?  Did other people who ordered from Amazon.com have the same issue? 

I guess that was 2 questions.

Anyways, thanks in advance, and Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

OMG!  I just received an email from Amazon (US).  

My VF-24G Revival pre-order is finally shipping!!!  Considering that actually released in September 2023, my pre-order is only going to arrive 4 months late. 

At least it is finally coming.  For a moment there, I was having Nippon-Yasan flashbacks.

Star Wars - The Mandalorian - The Black Series/Hot Toys Luke Skywalker

I did not bother to buy the Hot Toys Luke with the battle damaged Dark Trooper bust as I did not need it as a display.
