I made my first order with Nin-Nin with the VF-0A, but didn't realise their private warehouse system is pretty much inflexible compared to many others we are used to. There's no way to control when and what to ship - all items are automatically consolidated into a package providing they are already released, at end of 1-month period from the earliest released item date.

I'm usually hesitant to pre-agree on shipping rates (if we select no private warehouse option for Nin-nin) whilst putting in orders for PO items, because almost always the shipping charged are higher than actual rates due to margin of error that the vendor have to build in without having the item in hand yet. Private warehouse option usually alleviates this for some, but not all vendors, yet to have your items arbitrarily locked away for up to a month is another matter though lol. 

So Nin-Nin just invoiced me for shipping, and now I'm waiting for my 0A to be sent out.

Everyone has to have a joke toy, and this would be mine.  I would pay to see this produced.

Only thing is the valkyrie has to come with a toy hamburger and fries, happy meal style.

Wasn't planning on getting any Macross merch and just waiting for my preorders to come in from now until Jan. '25... but $150 shipped for this was just too good to pass up. MISB from a JP store (he upped the price as soon as mine shipped out :lol:).

As a huge Mac+ and Isamu fan, I've been eyeing this for years, but the one's I've seen locally were just too overpriced. There are apparently a lot of these popping up on JP online stores and on Madarake.  Guess the scalpers finally gave up on this or l just got lucky.

And for a 10+ year old toy, this one comes with an extra head laser. :rolleyes:

I'm sure you've all seen enough DX 21s by now, but I also got an old Yamato for side by side comparison.  I may end up selling one but... probably not.  Got a complete collection of Orguss as well, but only what I could find with subs.  02 is out on bluray but no subs.  But I don't mind SD for old anime.

Bandai DX Chogokin Macross Plus YF-21 (Guld Goa Bowman Type)

I got my shipping notice last week and it finally arrived today. I can't see any defects and plan on displaying it in fighter mode with the guns attached. I don't plan on transforming it anytime soon and will most likely get another to play around with in the near future.

I got the mini Dairugger (vehicle Voltron) and he is very cute. Some decent articulation for a tiny version that parts forms from vehicles into Voltron.

Wow. Never knew Voltron was a Macross spin off. Need to research it.

At what number will you stop?

I think I'm set.  Or maybe one more.

Some serious numbers.  I haven't even bought one.

You should get a few releases from the HMR line.

This makes the last to complete a collection of at least one of each number that I can/care to procure and consider cannon in 1:60 scale.  This one's a very nice addition, probably second only to the SV-262 imho.  I don't usually like panel lining, but this looks... crisp. 👌
