Sanity is Optional Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 I have the classic basestar as well, honestly it's pretty plain. No tampo or markings, just a wash. The battlestars (both 2004 and classic) are much more impressive.
sh9000 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 @Shizuka the Cat Were you able to use the free service fee coupon for that Buyee order? It would have helped with the overall cost.

It would have helped with the overall cost. Yes. I was able to apply the coupon on each of the 4 valkyries I had won from YJA via Buyee. In total, using the coupon 4 times saved me 3062 yen.

Tking22 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Masterpiece MP-43 Beast Wars Megatron is MASSIVE! I maintain MP-36 Megatron wasn't anything too special, and too expensive, but this monster? Absolutely worth it. I can admit I'm biased, I was born a bit too late to grow up with G1, THIS was my Megatron, and always will be. #monkeynottruck
Mommar Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 I finally got the crew together. I’m missing one of the bottom stabilizers so that guy is the designated Battroid now.

MY BW Megatron is on the way but my Megatron is still MX-I even though I have MP-36 and several other versions of the character. Edited March 29, 2019 by Slave IV

I had an Apollyon and loved the bulk and aesthetic, I just got the short end of the stick as far as QC goes. To this day though, I still think he's a damn good looking MP G1 Megatron.

Mine is still always on display by my desk at the office although tucked in a corner for now.

I have a hard time with perspective, especially on my phone. I can’t wait for Skull Leader and the M’s now. I’m always happy to convince somebody to spend more money. I’ve had my eye on the Andromeda for awhile but I just can’t bring myself to start buying other lines. I’ve already started back down my long dormant vinyl purchasing route again.

My end of the month arrivals: Nice, are Bandai re-issuing the 1/72 Cosmo Falcona nd Zero? I've had a Zero on backorder for probably a year or more at HLJ. Really wish they would expand the line in that scale, there are some great ship designs in both 2199 and the new series.
sh9000 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Got my 1/100 VF-25S. It will stay in Fighter mode.
Slave IV Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 I saw the BS Archive series for the first time in the wild today at Target and Walmart...all except Boba Fett of course. Already have a case that I preordered but grabbed an extra Luke since it was on sale and I want one to open. Also saw some of the minicomic figures too...Just Vader and Chewie so I impulse bought a Vader just like I and they knew I would.
Shizuka the Cat Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Not exactly a toy or anything, but.... I just received this medallion as part of my induction into the Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi for being in the top 10% of my PhD class. I wonder if I can trade it for valkyrie....

For some reason it reminds me of Hikaru’s last minute birthday gift to Minmei....
Mommar Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Well this was one hell of a haul today. Games, records, toys.

I hear ya...I went down quite the rabbit hole with the Yamato that I had to give up on some lines lol. 16 hours ago, Chronocidal said: Nice, are Bandai re-issuing the 1/72 Cosmo Falcona nd Zero?

I'm not sure that they did, but I saw that Amazon had a Zero for sale with Prime and grabbed one. I got the Falcon from AmiAmi which also has the Zero if you want to grab from them. I'm still trying to get Yamamoto's Zero and Shinohara's Falcon. I think it's really hit or miss once an item goes into backorder at HLJ. For example, the Macross Armored Factory has been on backorder for a couple years now.

I was only able to see them in @Alphahorizon's quote where they show up like links and open in a new window. Even then, they didn't want to show up very well. Just wondering if it's my browser of a site issue. I see this from time to time on this site.
Alphahorizon Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 @Pontusthat weird. I was able to and now, not what enphily had just posted and I responded to. Did he pull the image down? Everything else before than I still see.
borgified Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Picked up Neca's Scorpion Alien yesterday, Snake Alien might follow.
