Shizuka the Cat Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 YAY! A few things just came in the mail. Curious to see if anyone can figure out what the new additions are... Spoiler YF-19 fold booster and VF-11B. I also re-arranged this shelf a little bit. upper level: birds that M&M flew lower level: birds that Hikaru flew. (If I am not mistaken, he flew the VF-1J and the yellow VF-1S in the TV show, and the red VF-1S and VT-1 in DYRL)

All you need now is Hikaru's VF-1D and the Fan Racer from the TV series. And a red striped VF-1A for the DYRL movie. Btw, for the yellow VF-1S he used, it's just Super Packs installed and not Strike Packs variant. But everything else, you're all set.

You're going to make me go dig out the box so I can swap the Strike cannon out for its Super part equivalent, aren't you? I blame you entirely. *LOL* Not really interested in the racer, but I am always keeping an eye out for the VF-1D. You know I have that one eBay auction on my watch list, waiting to swoop in at the 11th hour.

Where is the logic in that? Considering I just freed up funds from a con I'm not staying at... I might have to look into this and just do a slight mod to make it a captain uniform.

Just collect the figures from it. I have seen the movie once or twice, but it was years ago. From what I remember it wasn't the best but wasn't terrible either. Most if not all the gundam movies aren't that good, so it is on par with the others. Mostly re-watching for the suits and for recently finishing Super Robot Wars V.

Was thinking of selling one of them to get the 1st release but still debating if it's even worth it since I've read that the FP for the YF-21 isn't all that great. Edited May 21, 2018 by dafob
Sanity is Optional Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Dunno about Shizuka, but I picked up a first release YF-21 from Mandarake. Unfortunately time has made the clear stand a bit brown, but at least it's uniform.

I thought about getting the re-release, but I really wanted the fast packs to match my YF-19.

anubis20 Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Kinda salty about this Figuarts Naruto I got yesterday. This is how Bandai shouldve released it to begin with instead of the previous Sage Mode Naruto we got. Now I ended up with 2 Naruto's and I guess I can display them doing a shadow clone rasengan

I'm pissed about the first Rocket Racoon release with pea shooters and now they have a TWE with a big gun.

What sucks is that i bought a custom robe for my original one thinking this version was nothing but vaporware. So yea it turned into an even more expensive plus

Did you add a reinforcing plate between the two detolfs to strengthen the display without the middle partitions? I would like to set up 4-6 detolfs later and am thinking about taking out the sides as well to widen the range of display. I suppose it's quite strong once you add the metal plate, and you don't have to worry about losing the support of the side glass panel? Thanks!
