I just went and checked and my VF-1S with Supers has multiple heads in there. I didn't even notice. I don't need another. That Batmobile is AWESOME!!!

sqidd Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Getter 2 joins the Ex Gokin party. Man, I LOVE the zoomies on the drill motor!
Tking22 Posted August 4, 2020 Posted August 4, 2020 Got some mecha anime on bluray. I missed out on the Patlabor box set when it first released, definitely couldn't miss out on the July restock.

Love the EX Gokin collection, mine is not nearly as impressive. You even have the Reideen in normal colors, I feel like I only ever saw the all gold version.

Some are pretty tough to find like the Mazinger and Energer in the original colors. I just scored that Mazinger recently. I think I lucked out on that Reideen. I saw a pic, searched Mandy, and they had one. I haven't seen once since. And of course tracking them down at anything near a reasonable price is a challenge. A original color Shin Getter (I have the re-paint) fetches over $1000 if you can find one! I adore the Ex Gokin line. In the Super Robot realm I think it's tops for me. I would LOVE to see a Ex Gokin VF-1S Roy Strike in Battroid! Can you imagine how cool a "monsterized" version of that would look?

Yeah, they are quite challenging to track down, especially at an even remotely reasonable price. I only have Mazinger Z and Great in their alt colors and I was able to purchase Black Shin Getter and the original Getter Dragon when they released, though I actually prefer the repaint of the latter. I had Grendizer pre-ordered at one point but didn't ultimately pull the trigger. I wish I had more of them, especially the regular colors for Great Mazinger and Reideen. I would love to see more of the line in general, even though I'm not sure Fewture is doing them anymore. I feel like Dragon, Black Shin, Grendizer, Reideen and a few other Getter items all released in relatively close proximity, but I know I haven't seen even a tease about what might come next. Something like a mosnterized version of Mazinkaiser almost seems like a no brainer. That said, maybe no one has really been able to pick up on the work Taku Sato was doing and the line just isn't the same without his influence.

sqidd Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 While poking around eBay I ran across this KO POS. The Focker Army demands all recruits! So I bought it for way, way, way, way too much money. It's a massive POS. I'd say it's about 1/60 scale. I have christened it the "Junky Monkey"!

Sanity is Optional Posted August 5, 2020 Posted August 5, 2020 (edited) Picked up a couple things from Mandarake. Shipping cost more than the items did... Yamato GNU-Dou VF-11 (slightly grubby Weathered version) Bandai Macross Solid Archive gacha set I have a weakness for Macross Valkyrie gacha, and these looked like interesting little fixed-pose action scene statuettes.

sqidd Posted August 6, 2020 Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) With a STRONG assist from @tekering I finally got this sucker to home plate. Now to paint up another set of SSP's and finish of the non cannon double trifecta! Edited August 6, 2020 by sqidd

Mommar Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Placement of the head on the neck is a little bit goofy and there’s a little too much cape (and a lack of bendy wire down the center.). Otherwise, cool.
sqidd Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Got the Camo Low Vis out today. Time to paint some Supers up for it. It came from Jungle. Unfortunately it was missing the heat shield. A bummer. I'll just keep it in Fighter I suppose.
kkx Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 @sqidd That is really unfortunate. It is also possible to steal a spare heat shield from another valk and paint it. I been wondering about casting a copy of the DX VF-1 head shield.

But for you, it seems like NBD based on how you plan to display it.

This is not my first Jungle situation that was a little off. Jungle is lower on my go to list for sure. Which is NBD because they don't have nearly the product traffic that Manda does.

Slave IV Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 I finally got my first GI Joe Classified figure! I was very surprised to feel the shipping box it came in and thought they might have sent other stuff with it but that is unlike Hasbro Pulse. Well, I was wrong...the box is huge and super premium feeling. Nicely done Hasbro! And I don’t praise them very often.
Slave IV Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 Oh man...I'm's in lubs. I thought I would want the regular version with the weapons from here but f all that, this thing is beautiful!
kaiotheforsaken Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 That looks like it's in really good shape, nice find! I never had a 1/55 but I kind of want to snap up one of the Bandai reissues from the early 2000s. There's so much charm in that design.
