Saburo Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Just arrived today. 0083 is my favorite Mobile Suit series, this is my second favorite MS next to the GP01/FB. I really like the design of the Gerbera-Tetra. My favorite Gundam never had an anime series, its the EX-S Gundam. just arrived this afternoon! I love receiving goodies!!

IMG-1418106394658-V.jpg IMG-1418106281203-V.jpg 20141209_172741.jpg Same with me, spanner. I love receiving the goodies. But I'm pretty sure, same as me 'you hate also receiving the invoices.'
Falcon18 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 the 29's look super sleek in fighter mode without the parts eh! Indeed they do.
spanner Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I really like the design of the Gerbera-Tetra. My favorite Gundam never had an anime series, its the EX-S Gundam. Awesome presents just showing up! Miksaki Yuria reporting for duty! And to think I was pretty much set on not buying Misaki Yuria.. so glad I go her as she's just adorable! Same with me, spanner. I love receiving the goodies. But I'm pretty sure, same as me 'you hate also receiving the invoices.' well yes the invoices.. it sure is the ugly side of collecting.. my credit card is MAXED out! After the 3x Zero-D, the 3x 29's, the Air Conditioning unit and a few other bit's n bobs.. its totally wrecked! gotta start paying it off now. Indeed they do. I wanted to pose Ozma 29 next to Ozma 25 also both in Battroid but it looks so cool in fighter I just don't know what to do! Problem is now how I have things arranged in my Frontier display im pretty much out of room and it won't fit in anywhere in fighter..

You can outsource the DISPLAYING aspect to us Dont worry, we will send you pictures of it.
spanner Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) You can outsource the DISPLAYING aspect to us Dont worry, we will send you pictures of it. so how's this look!? ok so not ideal but when my Flightpose stands arrive and I can be gone with those awful Bandai stands I should be able to pose many of the Valks in far more interesting and display efficient positions.. Edited December 9, 2014 by spanner76
abbadon Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 That looks great! Always good to make the most out of limited space. Some of my collections have been on rotation from display cabinet to drafting table, and vice versa. I guess my next purchase has to be a new detolf.

Thanks! im gonna need another display cabinet soon too!
Falcon18 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 so how's this look!? ok so not ideal but when my Flightpose stands arrive and I can be gone with those awful Bandai stands I should be able to pose many of the Valks in far more interesting and display efficient positions.. Awesome!! I'm a fighter guy. So I'll definitely say go with fighter.
Mechapilot77 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Great shot Mechapilot77! What do you think of the Tsugumori? thanks! ok these are my first impressions since i only spend about 15 minutes with it before i started posing it for photos lol. in hand it is its smallish, light, and joints are tight. it has sharp edges and i do fear if it took a tumble some of the sharper feature would break (although again its light so maybe not?) its 1/144 and roughly 6 inches. i think it looks great. i wish the shoulder had more range of motion but with the shape of the design its probably impossible to do it and remain faithful to the anime. it comes with the requisite stand...i do'nt think i'd ever pose this thing not flying through space. i do wish it were bigger (the model kit is 1/100 which i think would be perfect size for this figure but i think this sentinel riobot release looks a bit better, partially because of the color scheme is anime accurate vs. manga. That's just gorgeous! Might have to get me one! it photographs just like it looks...well it may look bigger in pictures i guess. lol. i would recommend it if you are a fan of the design, don't mind smallish figures that might be/feel delicate. unlike the other riobot release i've handled...there is no diecast.
505thAirborne Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Cima was ruthless. great buy!!! Was she ever, no love lost when she eats it!
Fighting103 Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 so how's this look!? ok so not ideal but when my Flightpose stands arrive and I can be gone with those awful Bandai stands I should be able to pose many of the Valks in far more interesting and display efficient positions.. Oh dear...I think I definitely have to buy that VF-25A.. Fall in love w/ the color XD
spanner Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Oh dear...I think I definitely have to buy that VF-25A.. Fall in love w/ the color XD Yeah really like the CF colors! Gotta be my next fav after Ozma! I wouldn't mind picking up another and fit supers to it!
chyll2 Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 another thing that makes 25A cool is the gunmetal colored guns they have similar to 25S DX chogokin, unlike the true to anime/art purple color 25F has
spanner Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 another thing that makes 25A cool is the gunmetal colored guns they have similar to 25S DX chogokin, unlike the true to anime/art purple color 25F has Ah yes the gunmetal color is much nicer! Never thought much of the purple gunpods.. The VF-1 still have the best gunpods I reckon!
EnderWiggen Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) Two new Valks for my collection. I was really surprised by how massive the 29 is, it almost completely fill that shelf. latestt pickup Thats awesome. Ive been wanting to pick up a Tsugumori for a while. I've been a big fan of Neheis work ever since Biomega. Edited December 11, 2014 by EnderWiggen

I know they are small but it wouldn't phase me at all! I do really like the design of them! Loved the anime too! I was really surprised by how massive the 29 is, it almost completely fill that shelf. the super parts really do extend the wingspan quite a bit! lucky she just fit in! but how good does she look sitting on the flight pose stand! looks awesome! great pose!
XFJ-01A Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I had to sell my soul to Mephisto for this, but.....if it means spooning Goddesses of war.....

chyll2 Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 Went to the post office earlier to pick these up. I had a pretty bad experience with Mandarake last shipment since a Sealed YF-30 was shipped using a smaller box (that is hacked to be bigger) These two were shipped using a box that has like 50 to 70% clearance. The 25S Armor parts is Sealed with box damaged but I can never really see the "damage" they are calling. What more suprising is the Super/Strike Parts. The box really looks brand new.

jvmacross Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 I had to sell my soul to Mephisto for this, but.....if it means spooning Goddesses of war..... Nice...so does this mean they are officially not being released by Toynami?.....or did you sneak them off the cargo ship holding them that is indefinitely docked in Shanghai?
Dark Skull Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Along with Macross stuff, I also collect these:
abbadon Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Nice pick ups chyll2! I love Mandarake! Never let me down yet!
The Old Man Posted December 13, 2014 Posted December 13, 2014 Finally received my Yukikaze Mave. It's pretty sweet. Small though, and very fiddly and fragile.
Gakken85 Posted December 13, 2014 Author Posted December 13, 2014 Are you going to get the hot toys troopers?
wmkjr Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Nice! I don't collect figures but they all look very good! I really want to get those Yukikaze fighters but will stick to just Macross for now.
spanner Posted December 14, 2014 Posted December 14, 2014 Those Yukikaze fighters are a sweet thing! Its a shame they are 1/100 scale.. would be nice if they were same scale as our Valkyrie!
