What I really still want to get which I missed a while back is the huge Toybiz Marvel Legends BAF Apocalypse. I think that figure would look great towering over the 3.75" figures. Oh definitely. That's what I do with the BAF Galactus. 3.75" FF and Silver Surfer displayed with him.

I don't collect XM stuff so I guess that's not an option. Best I can trade is maybe my extra VF-31J + SV-262H. Guess my hunt continues, unless they announce a BT Titanfall figure.

I have been tempted to get him and hoping that he will go on a HLJ sale. Yes i would totally recommend it. Its a great figure quite heavy with decent amount of diecast. Quite big also, its the size of a regular SoC figure. Its about the same height of the SRC mazinkaiser. On 2017-5-19 at 0:10 PM, no3Ljm said: Hey MrBomber! Nice hauls on 1/6th figures. I've been considering Wolvie but I'm still having second thoughts about it. How was it? That wolvy is amazing, its quite heavy, tight joints and fully posable. The different set of arms gives an extra layer of coolness, with no visible seems. The best comic looking wolvy figure available 100% recomended On 2017-5-19 at 0:41 PM, anubis20 said: Is that an Aiolos Gold God Cloth hanging in the background? It is saint myth crown sagittarius seiya, 1/6 scale.

Now I need to hunt for someone selling it locally. What Android 18 figure is that? Looks really nice. RE 6 Ada Wong is widely available on ebay (where i got it) and its kinda same price as sideshow. Hit me up om PM if you want the link to the seller. Android 18 ia from the dragonball styling line. Small on scale but really nice, cheap and lots pf detail.

F360 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Had to ship out my HLJ PW just 3 days before the hi-metal R Spartan release. Fedex shipping rate for these ended up at 5870 yen. ( in April it would have been around 4900-5100 yen) Hlj did use more padding this time. open and inspect sv-262hs for tampo logo marking (all good) open and inspect vf-31F for protective sticker residue on paint (all good) Plastic wrapping on the vf-31F was a bitch to put it back on the bottom of the valk due to all the wings and angles.

F360 you can battle it out between Messer, Keith and Seabook!
sh9000 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 I think I'll save myself $100+ and open my sealed set for BAF Apocalypse instead of buying a loose one.

I see you have a nice collection of TB MLs too! I have so many, I don't know what to do but just keep them as is. You could sell a couple and buy the loose apocalypse with the money too.
Rogueload Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 Received these 2 sweet valks from davidwhangchoi last week!!
spacemanoeuvres Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) Got another grail in today A BIG thanks to the USPS for leaving it out in the rain all afternoon. The YF-21 box was actually a little wet but didn't penetrate the cardboard. Edited May 22, 2017 by spacemanoeuvres

The YF-21 is beautiful in fighter mode but I had to adjust some bits because the previous owner didn't put everything back quite right...and holy sh!t this thing is tricky to handle. The legs arms were quite a challenge and every time I touch it a wing, panel, or something gets moved out of place. I can't imagine actually transforming this thing to battloid and back. I'd have to set aside an afternoon lol

anubis20 Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 Stars lined up and even SAL packages decided to show up along with the EMS ones and got a bunch of stuff yesterday. 1/60 VF-1A Kit and 1A Kaki TV. I wanted to get two 1A kits but it was cheaper to get a 1A Kaki than a second kit. Im gonna convert the Kaki into an Alaska Base first and then ill work on the kit Got a few HMR in. One Regult and 1A from Mandarake, the other regult I found on Rakuten for ¥5184 so why not and the HMR Roy off YAJ for ¥11991. Figuarts Iron Man Mk 6 Arcadia Lancer II from the Arcadia Online Shop but I didnt want to pay EMS shipping just for that so i got one of the HMR Monsters off Amazon for ¥14440 and finally the very last piece I need to complete my VF1 collection. I can say I am now 100% done with the VF-1 (until the M&M 1J re-issues )
sh9000 Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Welcome to the HMR club. We accept all new members. Edited May 23, 2017 by sh9000

If only I have a painted Thunder Hammer since I don't do resin, I'll slap it on that No Painting Version. Love the all white look of it. Hehehe.

You can trry and get those Metal Saga / MoShow brand first to experience it before you splurge and hunt down those released one. It's much cheaper. Good luck!

Worry about the money later. What matters is to secure a PO first. Sad to say, money is nothing when you don't have a preorder.
