Also, I spotted one of my ultimate grail at Mandarake. Despite the high shipping and sureshot customs, and the fact that the thing will load my credit card to the brim, I still ordered it. Let's see if that moment of madness will go through before any reveals.

Of course, those geniuses sent it in an envelope. To be fair, the box is going in the recycling b8n but still...
The irony is that even if I ordered it from Amazon.ca with free shipping, I still saved around 1$can by importing it. There's also high chances that my tax deposit will be refunded in a few weeks, making me save even more.

I guess I never had a Soundwave before so I'm glad to crack this open. I'm not sure about the last time I opened up a Transformers box (maybe something from the 2007 movie?)

Found at Mandarake. Oh God that shipping fee... And there will be customs too...

Ouch!
But it is a pretty set...
If I got that, customs would slap almost another 100 on it

As far as customs go, I think that's how much I'm going to pay.
Still, could be worse. I would have paid much more from ebay and the authenticity of the set wouldn't have been guaranteed.
For that shipping price, I'll just have to wait a few days at least.

Glad that went to a good home, I was considering buying that set myself since their best boxed Victory Leo is nearly that price alone! Ultimately glad I didn't since I missed some work due to a covid close contact and MP Skywarp arrived early.

The G1 original and the HASLAB will look awesome together!
But now is to pay off the damn thing. Well, time to stop being lazy and work some overtime shifts.
G1 Victory Saber is my most expensive TF set yet.... That is, until I find my ultimate Grail, a 100% complete G1 Metalhawk with box and everything.

And man, what did I do to them?
Coronation Starscream is amazing. I don't regret double-dipping on ER Screamers.
But Amazon... Come on... The cardboard shipping box was in perfect condition. But when I opened it, the packaging of the toy was literally CRUSHED. As if it was used as a football before being put into the shipping box.
Y U DO DIS?
The backdrop was even damaged to the point of being inutilisable. Furthermore, I cannot get a partial refund and I must go through the hassle of returning the whole thing for a full refund, then Russian-Roulette another order.






I could have kept the box but looks like I have no choice but to throw it in the recycling bin.
Come on, Amazon. Do better.

Small (especially in comparison to all that), but welcome: the launcher and missile that make up one of Cybertron Jetfire's guns. Seller says it was the left-hand one, but based on which side the screw is on I think it's actually the right-hand one.
* Cyb. Galvatron key, missiles
* Omega Lock
* Primus Cyber Key, coattail panel
* Powerlinx Comettor
* Leader Sentinel Prime sword, shield
* RiD Galvy dragon head, beast arms
* Leader Ironhide windshield, R hood assy.
* Cyb. Wing Saber left chestplate (argh)

55K yen. Meaning over 605$CAN.
Shipping and taxes: 290$CAN
Total, almost 1000$CAN for this.
The complete G1 Victory Saber gift set!
The box is severely damaged, there's some traces of yellowing, and the stickers are used. But other than that, ALL PARTS ARE THERE, including the papers! Plus I didn't expect the box to be this humongous! The high shipping cost is understandable, but too bad Mandarake don't have the Amazon.jp deal. Regardless, it was still cheaper than eBay.


I'll post proper pictures in some days because my living room need some serious reworking to display this piece. One thing that I will not touch is that missiles tray. Other than that, expect me to transform it in all modes and post a lots of pictures soon enough!
I'm also looking forward the HASLAB version to display it side by side.
Now, to pay that bill...

Now all I need is to put several things in storage and reorganise all my video games machines to make the glorious display.
