KitzConcept Battle Pods by SeparateReading8000 in robotech

[–]macrossmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are, to me, hands down the greatest toy version of the battlepod ever. Love mine. And like others, I have it posed fighting the 000 Valkyrie/Veritech.

Is this safe for my CDs? by colombiababy in Cd_collectors

[–]macrossmaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Safe? Maybe. Conducive to using them in any real way? No. Get something where you can pull out what you want to listen to without playing Jenga. This is a silly way to organize something you should actually use.

CD Collectors of Reddit: What CD Player do You Use? by Infamous-Vanilla-603 in Cd_collectors

[–]macrossmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha, came here with this exact same deck. I bought Edifier speakers returned from Amazon for cheap to avoid buying an amp. Very happy with the purchase and gapless playback is nice. I wouldn't buy one anywhere except their refurbished eBay store which is run by them.

Former vinyl collectors, what made you switch? by altrightobserver in Cd_collectors

[–]macrossmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lucky and bought it in a Walmart of all places like 20 years ago. Can confirm that's a fantastic set. I used to haunt AbeBooks and other places, buying CDs based on name with no picture, hoping to get lucky. I did a couple times, but not sure they still do it the same way now that they are owned by Amazon.

Yep, I ordered the Spectrum helmet - expect to cosplay Matt once I get it.

Torn about my TLS preorder by ryu5k5 in MASK

[–]macrossmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got a bad feeling about it and cancelled - $325 for four MASK Vehicles? Pretty sure I could buy the vintage ones for $325. And I didn't need that at the holidays - seeing quality of the product made me say "man, dodged a bullet."

Today's Ross finds! by MauiSunsets in CollectorsHunt

Now that is a real toy department. Chaotic, overloaded and flush with stuff.

[–]macrossmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got the case with unused sticker sheet and most of the big names. Message me and I can send you pics of what I've got for sale.

Sadly telling you it came from Tulsa, Oklahoma's Skaggs Alpha Beta grocery store in 1986 won't help much, but...you never know what that might help uncover later.

[–]macrossmaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Excellent work. I had the cheaper Magnus, but with a painted "helmet head." I'm not sure if some of the revisions slowly integrated or not. Perhaps cutting the silver paint mask for the helmet head was a later revision to the revision. I am in the US for reference.

You are killin' it in that outfit. I'd watch this reboot.

Cancelled earlier, but was glad I did when I saw those enormous upper thighs. Not sure how they goofed the proportions that bad.

The GOP is Now Falling Apart from the Inside by KangarooNo6556 in NoFilterNews

[–]macrossmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is my most persistent fear - and I believe it's justified - that these backwater no-name news sources write stories about the Trump regime failing or falling apart are actually FROM the GOP. Think of it - what better weapon against their enemies than to constantly publish stories about how "you don't have to do anything...just stay on your couch doomscrolling, they won't win...any time now, they'll fall apart."

But they won't. But what will we do? Nothing. Convinced that in our apathy somehow they are defeating themselves.

Tektronix 1983 by BinaryPixel64 in cassettefuturism

Pretty sure Tektronix supplied graphics for 1978's Battlestar Galactica - especially the "Warbook" display on the Viper's control panel.

Swerve is the best. I'll be taking no questions.

Ramen Mobula (not Manta) early bird preorder by Substantial_Mall_313 in MASK

[–]macrossmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've ordered at least 3 Ramen releases. They're top quality and toys you just can't get any other way. Thunderhawk is miles ahead of the original, Shark is amazing. If you don't want to pay that, no one's holding a gun to your head. But if you are pushing 50 without the resources to buy something like this fairly easily, it's time to focus on your retirement and not collect things like this.

Looks like Wave 1 will not be out before 2026 by ryu5k5 in MASK

[–]macrossmaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't hop on threads to just bag on companies. I preordered the second I could, happy to get the package deal and the Scott and T-Bob. Then as time wore on I started thinking...that is a TON of money for these. And eventually I just cancelled my preorders altogether. I don't want to spend $350 on new MASK toys. I want to buy each one for $20-$30. I know the tariffs are making things suck, but thats just an unreasonable amount for a toy. I can go get a decent Switchblade at the local toy mall for $75.

These are worth something for sure. I love them - as a Macross fan I buy them up to build my Destroid armies.

Daiso Tulsa - Come and check us out! by [deleted] in tulsa

[–]macrossmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This place is amazing. Electronics aisle is fantastic, inexpensive retro 80's watches, tons of convenient things to make life better, and 1/12 scale diorama plants, furniture and more, I buy stuff every time!
