Ok I got the kits in and they are in amazing condition. The kits inside are all sealed up and the boxes look almost brand new. I made room for them on my Robotech New Generation/Mospeada shelf and I think they fit in quite well.
Oh and I've got a couple more things scheduled to come in.. I'll post when they arrive.
Anyone else got anything new?

Got a few new additions to my New Generation/Mosepeada shelf. I got a lot of Robotech figures in this weekend, among them was Rand, Rook, and LUNK. These guys are in great condition. I was lucky to get them.
I also got in a carded Matchbox Roy Fokker. He's a tough guy to find at times loose.. so finding him carded is much tougher.
I also got in a carded Matchbox Miyria.. another tough find.

I've got what I think is the only "accurate" 3-mode Hover Tank.
Bought the original Matchbox toy in the 80's and found it had a serious flaw. The "Hover Tank" didn't transform to the Hover Tank mode, Only Battroid and Cannon. So I've done a lot of modifying to the original. It now transforms into all 3 modes, the arms pivot at the elbows, the hands rotate and pivot, the head rotates and I scratch-built the gun-pod and mounted it in it's proper place. Right now you can see it on my gallery upload. I just joined this site, so as I have time I will be posting pictures of the rest of my collection. Some pieces I've had since they originaly came to America in the 80's. I have all 3 of the High-Metal 1/72 scale veritechs (very rare). I have collected what I think is most of the 1/55 scale VF's including the (not Robotech) Elintseeker and the Trainer. Instead of going on and on, I will get busy posting pictures.

Awesome display. You've got a very nice collection. Really like the way you have th models set up.
I've got a few now additions to my own collection.
Last weekend my wife and I attended a small toy show in Ft Worth. I saw a jetfire sitting on a dealer table. While talking to the dealer I couldnt resist the temptation to pick it up and inspect it. Ihe was standing in robot mode so i turned him over and bam! I see the macross kite on the wing... Not getting my hopes up i did further inspections... after all I've seen my share of fakes. So I took a second look at the antenna... they were slotted! So by this time.. i'm gettin a little excited by this time.. but i wasnt showing it. So as a final check i unhooked his back and opened him up to check the manufactuer... Matsushiro! Bingo! Needless to say i now have him on my shelf... and i got a great deal too.
Here is are two other additions to my collection. I picked these up a couple months ago. Took a while for me to find these two.. but it was worth the wait.
Here's an updated shot of one of my Robotech display shelves.

Wow, keeney1958, that is an incredible setup. Fantastic display there, and a lot of awesomeness. I love the Zentraedi battlecruisers too. And you have the Matchbox SDF-1 as well as the Yamato SDF-1?? Wow man, talk about an abundance of riches!!! Great stuff!!
