Just bought mine today from Taobao, they'll be restocking around the 15th so probably wont ship until later in the month. BTW can the fully assembled 00 Qan an accessories fit in the Qan box or im forever stuck with the Metal Synthetic box to store accessories?

Congrats F360. Can't wait to see your photos. I PO'ed mine a long time ago via eBay and the seller, who constantly updating me which is good in my books, told me they're going to ship it this week. They just got their stocks so they're sorting out all the preorders they received. So hopefully it's going to arrive here next week. I hope.

You think it's ok to complain that I didn't get the brown box from the seller? Basically, all the corners of my box have creases, dents, and small tears.

It's still best to ask since it kind of damage the actual box and the price of yours is lower than mine yet you got the shipper box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kajnrig Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Preorder for above model kit at GK-M: http://www.shop2000.com.tw/GK-M/product/p26662593 $80 shipped ($30 + $50 shipping) Preorder for same kit at Gundam Model Center: http://www.gundammodelcenter.com/gundam-central-dragon-momoko-avalanche-exia-mb $58 + shipping I don't know if those prices are final. This IS still the preorder phase. I have a feeling the $80 will be closer to the final price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 no need to rush for pre-order unless the DM first batch has extra added as premium. There is also another Avalanche Exia coming from Daban branding (and the first batch premium of theirs is the extra parts to build the kit as Exia R1/R2/R3/Avalanche) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also another Avalanche Exia coming from Daban branding (and the first batch premium of theirs is the extra parts to build the kit as Exia R1/R2/R3/Avalanche) There are also a slew of preexisting Avalanche conversion kits, in both resin and injection plastic, though those are for the non-Metal Build-looking Exia MG kit. I believe this will be the first to have the Dash parts as well. Will the Daban version 1) be Avalanche Dash or just Avalanche? and 2) mimic the styling of the Metal Build or reuse their KO MG Exia? (If it's just MG Exia, that'll at least give this Dragon Momoko a bit more "legitimacy.") I also wonder how much of these will be straight rips of those earlier Avalanche kits, or if they'll go the extra mile and create their own entirely original toolings.

electric indigo Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 The DM kit looks really impressive. Has anyone experience with the quality of their offerings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) They are good for the price. It has flaws but nothing to serious that even a beginner modeller can fix. I had a pleasant experience with their Strike Kit and so-so on the Destiny MB copy kit. Common issue a. Polycaps are weaker compared to Bandai (dont ever buy their Tallgeese release, they have the reputation of never standing up) b. Pegs needs to be trimmed (more so if you plan to snap build first before painting) c. I dont know the correct term, but there are more swirl mark on the plastic (which can be remedied by both top coat or painting) d. if you love dry transfer or sticker, it is negative since from what I remember, DM kits comes with Water-slide decals. e. Promotional pic is always made by seasoned modeller, so some color separation on the promo pics are not separated by parts.(which they provide really ugly metallic sticker sheet) Edited August 16, 2017 by chyll2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajnrig Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Gonna stop with the model kit links after this to keep this thread on-topic, but here's a preorder page for the aforementioned 1/144 RG Avalanche Exia Dash conversion kit in case anyone's interested: http://www.shop2000.com.tw/GK-M/product/p26671889 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chyll2 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) That looking really good, again. My observation from the KO 00, Prices here in PH have decreased from launch time, might be due to MC flooding the market with it. Second hand price is slashed by a lot and it seems that the price for the Bandai stuff is slightly (if not) affected. Edit: If they release a SF deactive mode version, I am in for one.

chyll2 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 it will be probably cost around 120 shipped but expect WoL to be included as well. I had the Bandai PO'd but sold it since the review's I saw where not promising.

I have to agree the wings and backpack look too small for the body. Is the V fins supposed to be asymmetrical or is one side just warped? An interesting KO for $210, but I'm not into Seed Destiny enough to make a purchase. Speaking of 3rd party gundams whatever happened to that 1/100 kshatriya?

As for a Kshatriya, I know there was a 1/100 "MG" kit a couple years ago. Is that the one you're talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
