spanner Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 I was eyeing that thing too... hehe! sorry to snatch it from under you bro!
Old Man Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 hehe! sorry to snatch it from under you bro! It's all good. You snooze, you loose . At least a fellow MWF member was able to snag it. The box is super minty!
spanner Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 It's all good. You snooze, you loose . At least a fellow MWF member was able to snag it. The box is super minty! I have lost out a few times from hesitating so I figured I'd jump on it as soon as I saw it! Yeah the box is very minty! no damage or creases anywhere! It was listed as opened but the Valkyrie itself still had the sleeves over the wings, the sticky tape over the front gear doors and the plastic cover the front gear wheels! Looks like it was never removed from the packaging! win win for me!

I hesitated because I have a few more doubles to get before I start thinking about triples...but darn it if I don't want 3 CFs now
Lolicon Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 Finally finished my SDF TV squadron with Kakizaki! Even has the rainbow canopy! Yay! As for the VF-2SS... I'm going in with extremely low expectations, so let's see just how disappointing it is...

Lolicon Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 so how did your un-boxing of the VF-2SS go?? Oh, I put my impressions in the VF-2SS thread. But to save time, here's the condensed version: It's a steaming pile of crap.
spanner Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 Oh, I put my impressions in the VF-2SS thread. But to save time, here's the condensed version: It's a steaming pile of crap. LOL!
Kanedas Bike Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 LOL! Sorry for quoting the pic on the same page - but this picture so accurately depicts how I (comically) view all of us members here at MW. -b.
General Rasp Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Very Nice!! I would be interested to know how you like the Astray Red frame. I have the metal build versions of Destiny, Gold Astray and Exia Avalanche. I wasn't a big enough fan of the Red frame to buy the metal build version because of the price.
sh9000 Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 My pile of loot is shipping soon so I ordered another 1/18 Knight Rider.
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Nice! thanks! Very Nice!! I would be interested to know how you like the Astray Red frame. I have the metal build versions of Destiny, Gold Astray and Exia Avalanche. I wasn't a big enough fan of the Red frame to buy the metal build version because of the price. i've been keeping the MB sealed and boxed but here's an in depth review if you want to skim through it: Ooh.. Shockwave! i loved shockwave as a kid.
no3Ljm Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 *snip* i loved shockwave as a kid. Me too. But I don't want to start another line/character in my collections. I mean the only character I collect on TF is Hot Rod. But not all of his incarnations. Just a few that I like.

no3Ljm Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 he got optimus killed... i hate him Hahaha! It's just the color and the design, sir. Even though I cried when Prime died because of him. Besides it's Judd Nelson, so it's ok.

Curse you Macross for being so filthy awesome and addictive! Wait. You didn't check the warning sign on the side of every Macross toy package, Spanner? General Warning: Macross Collection is dangerous to your wallet.
spanner Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Wait. You didn't check the warning sign on the side of every Macross toy package, Spanner? General Warning: Macross Collection is dangerous to your wallet. Hehe! I think i did but my recent concussion has given me some memory loss..
seti88 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Wait. You didn't check the warning sign on the side of every Macross toy package, Spanner? General Warning: Macross Collection is dangerous to your wallet. I wouldnt want to see the pictures of damaged wallets beside that warning...
spanner Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 I wouldnt want to see the pictures of damaged wallets beside that warning... They should do it like they do on the cigarette packets of potential diseases! hehe!
no3Ljm Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 I wouldnt want to see the pictures of damaged wallets beside that warning... You mean just like the one I created before?
seti88 Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 @spanner yea except this time it's pasted at the side of Arcadia boxes lols..... @noel noooo I didn't want to b reminded of my wallet exploding!
spanner Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Hey that looks just like what happened to my wallet! And my previous relationship due to spending habits! LOL!
no3Ljm Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Hahaha! As long that we're happy with our collections, guys.
spanner Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) my VF-17D arrived today! box and Valk are in perfect condition! there is a teeny little scratch to the right side of the head unit just above the visual sensor (eyes or whatever you want to call it) but its not very noticeable.. I forgot how painful these can be to transform so thank goodness for Jenius transformation guides! saved hurling the thing across the room out of frustration! I also did my best to replicate one his poses I saw on the site. close but still looks ok so im happy with it! will post that pic in the "strike a pose thread" So that pretty much completes my M7 collection.. Unless there is something I missed is there? not going to bother with the VF-17 super parts either.. Edited April 26, 2016 by spanner
