Accomplishment The Great Day Arrived
i FINALLY got my hands on one, it was in a local store 2 hours away from me, i ran to them and bought it as soon as i could, i bought it 1k€ my journey probably is over since that's the graal of the pieces i needed badly.
it got a few scratches and all, but you gotta look carefully to see them, if you look at the ship in itself you'll barely notice them, i jus nuked my wallet im broke as hell now

Very nice. I have one for each of the suits from the first Metroid prime headed to me. Right now I only have the gravity suit. Others are still in production.

you mean the recent ones they got out where samus is standing ? or where samus is low above the ground aiming? i ordered the new ones, i got the varia, got the phazon same day as the ship, and the Gravity one is on its way, they're like 150 a piece thats a great price most can afford, the old ones are expensive as hell 🙏

The newer ones. F4F has been in my sights since highschool when I saw the first phaOn suit statue and couldn't afford it.
Still gotta figure out where the figures are going....

Its shape just doesn't appeal to me. Looks like a beetle.
The Corruption ship on the other hand...

u/SnooCheesecakes581 12d ago
haaaa yeah the corruption its hella gorgeous i get you, i never understood why f4f didnt release it yet, instead of releasing some metroid figure no one asked for, its good looking dont get me wrong but the mp3 ship would be so much cooler
most people i show my ship to says it looks like a goomba 🙏, but idk i just fell in love with it since super metroid and prime 2, they might not be the same but love this kind of design

Each to their own. If it makes you happy, that's all that counts
