Well, bud, it seems to be working. He's in New Jersey as of this morning. I may get him by Saturday.

Just got a call from my wife that he was delivered. And now I have to sit through 2 1/2 hours of Software Engineering 501 knowing that he's waiting.

I also am slightly amused at myself that I'm referring to him as "he" and not "it". I tend not to do that.

Nice! I hope Noisemaze PT brought some souvenirs from Hawaii.

SQUEEEE!

Here are some crappy pictures with too much flash. I'm not sure I want to take the outer plastic off. It looks like it's third party.

He's pretty spectacular. I'd say he's the perfect compliment to Vector Prime.

The box is in good condition. I'd say C8. There's a minor crease on the back edge and a tiny nick just about under my thumb in the last picture.

He's encased in this cellophane outer wrapping, but it looks like it was applied after purchase to keep his box dust free.

Not sure if I'm going to keep it or not.

EDIT: You can see the kink in the second picture really well on the left hand side. I can live with it though.

Very cool packaging. I like it!

The figure looks great in those colours. Even now as I look at the photos...I feel the lure of the exclusive club...must resist!

You wanted to keep this MISB? That thing looks awesome, great buy nonetheless. ;)^

Definitely keeping it MISB for now. I said earlier I was even thinking about getting it AFA graded, but with the back crease, I'm not sure it's worth it.

Did the auction leave out the part about the back crease? That's wrong.

I contacted the seller and she claims it wasn't damaged before shipping. The box does have a pretty big depression on one side, and it's extra 5000 mile trip can't have helped. I'm going to attempt to file an insurance claim with the USPS for at least partial compensation.

I'll let everyone know.

I was a little too giddy last night at just the fact of having him, but this morning I'm a pretty disappointed in this. Still happy, but that's a lot of money to settle for blemished goods.

You're on the Reserve Team in the NPT club if you don't open that sucker up.

No. But I'm OK with that. The Minerva Type Chromia I have en route does have the DVD.

It wouldn't have been AFA gradeable anyway then. The DVD is originally sealed together with the box. Mine didn't come with the DVD either. Didn't care, it's much better opened.

If it was caused by UPS then that sux, I received my PoL from BBTS a few days ago and half side of the box was caved in. Good thing nothing was damaged that I wanted to keep MISB. Hopefully you get something back from the insurance claim.

Chromia Minerva Type came today, and I'm surprised that they are different sized boxes. Minerva is slightly smaller, with the DVD sticking a little bit out on all sides except the bottom.

Yo Noisemaze, I'm really happy for you, I'll let you cost four times what Minerva does, but Minerva is the best Galaxy Force DVD exclusive of all time. One of the best exclusives of all time!






Sorry. I had to.

Well, finally got a happy result.

The post office cut me a check for $100.00 for the damage.

Pretty sweet.

I'll post pics at a later date when I get him opened.
