BoBe-Patt Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 I think he's trying to tell us that the person who is selling that elintseeker is a fraud. If that's not it then I don't know really. Quote
Solscud007 Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 Uh not sure what you want to know. Those plus teh Elintseeker were made by bandai. They purchased the rights from takatoku IIRC. And made toys in respect to the DYRL movie. Quote
Agent ONE Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 Hey man, when you start a thread you need to ask a clear question... Most of us have no clue what you want in both of your threads. You want more info about the pic? Like who took it? Thats a real SuperO box... I know because I had one 19 years ago. Quote
zeo-mare Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 i think he is talking about these 2 auctions that are up the same guy has the elintseeker and the super ostrich, i think he has doubts they are authentic perhaps? and maybe wants to verify with the macross world memebers who know these things a little better, before he bids big money that these are real and not some sort of reissue or somehting http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3191650291&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3191651386&rd=1 Quote

zeo-mare Posted May 4, 2004 Posted May 4, 2004 RichterX Posted on May 4 2004, 06:50 PM  I think he forgot to put the question... yea that might help, a question always comes in handy i saw these 2 auctions up on ebay and they are the same pics, so i figure it has to do with them, maybe he curious about qaulity? or maybe he doubts the seller and wants to know if anyone could vouch for him, he also put up a seperate post for the super Ostrich as well ,it was a pretty simple post as well that did not give you to much of a idea of what he wants. maybe he want to make sure it is not a auction from you know who, mister he whos name shall not be spoken Quote
halfan Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Let me put an end to all of your doubts. I listed those auctions today and they are indeed original toys. I do not deal in bootlegs or pirated goods of any kind. No they did not come from 'you know who' (arafat something or other). The person I bought them from is extremely dedicated to buying only official licensed products. I am also on the SSL here at MW. Quote
Taric Posted May 5, 2004 Author Posted May 5, 2004 Exactly Zero-mae well,I want to know how cool are this toy...just that. Thanks Héctor. Quote
Taric Posted May 5, 2004 Author Posted May 5, 2004 and i would like to know why the high prices of this two. Thanks again. Quote
F360° Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 as of right now there are no reissuse of these 2 items, unlike the other VF-1's. So the demand is still high. When demand is high, price goes up. But please next time if you're starting a tread to ask a certain question, make sure you type the Question with more detail. Quote
ChristopherB Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 (edited) Level of coolness depends of the user... RichterX, How do you know he wears "depends" undergarments? So "coolness" directly correlates to the depends "of" the user? Perhaps someone could come up with a formula for that, such as: Let "D" stand for Depends Let "U" represent the user Let "C" represent the coolness factor So: DU:C which is a ratio Now that we know the question, the answer is yes, the 1/55 VT-1 and VE-1 are quite rare unless you would rather have the Hasegawa/Yamato versions. Value is in the eye of the beholder. Sincerely, Christopher Edited May 5, 2004 by ChristopherB Quote
Agent ONE Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Both toys are cool, but not worth what you will pay in my opinion... If you are looking for quality to $$$ ratio, get Yamato products, they are new so they will also last longer. Quote

ChristopherB Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 RichterX, I'm just kidding around, I know what you meant to say. Welcome to MW, tomorrow is your (30) day anniversary. Sincerely, Christopher Quote
RichterX Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 Yeah... I didn't notice I have been already a month here... and very active one by the way Quote
zeo-mare Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Hi RichterX , actually before I meant Arafat or the guys who name shall not be spoken, not Voldamort, though they may be the same guy with all the evil shill bidding names he has Quote
halfan Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 (edited) actually before I meant Arafat or the guys who name shall not be spoken, not Voldamort, though they may be the same guy with all the evil shill bidding names he has Sorry, didn't realize for a second you were talking about those people in another context. I thought for a second you were implying that I am another alias of those scumbags. I find it frustrating when I build a small yet good reputation and people start doubting me when I sell something like this. Edited May 6, 2004 by halfan Quote
zeo-mare Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 (edited) hi, sorry if you mistook that , in no way did I mean you at all, i meant arafat209, a little while back some one had made the exact same statement about him, it was funny that they were trying to remove all aspects of his name and existence, it was like it was forbidden to even speak his name, and someone had made the harry potter reference of the villian "whos name shall not be spoken" so that is why it was said , by the way those are your auctions huh? they look very nice you would not happen to have the Strike Valk would you? always wanted one of those. Edited May 6, 2004 by zeo-mare Quote
halfan Posted May 6, 2004 Posted May 6, 2004 Yeah I looked into some of the questionable people before I even listed anything. It's very sad one or two people can make buying selling Macross stuff a lot harder. I was thinking of listing one at a time so I didn't get flooded with questions but decided to put up everything at once. And I can see how that would raise a few eyebrows in the community:P Nope, don't have a strike valkyrie. I saw one that ended a day or so ago with zero bids I think, about $400 bin. Quote
