    My order of the RG Sinanju replacement parts arrived today: There isn't much to the package, just one tray of parts and a sheet of instructions that's all in Chinese. Now to dig out the Sinanju.

    More like a yoked midget wearing a costume.

    I was curious about that too, and here's what the sticker sheet includes: Everything else (lights, door handles, and manufacturer symbols) are printed. Great effort on Mattel's part for this kit: there's a thick, well illustrated instruction book with a history lesson on the car, a metal plaque that can double as a keychain, and the bonus Hot Wheels toy looks slick. The options of building a left or right hand drive NSX along with matching manufacturer symbols are nice touches: Mattel could do better with the brick pieces themselves, however. The red bricks are simply aren't as lustrous and deeply colored as Lego pieces. Just a minor niggle, nothing to make me stop looking forward to future kits especially with Mattel renewing their partnership with Ferrari.

    Got lucky at Walmart: The other Brick Shop kits look pretty cool and the added Hot Wheels car is a nice bonus. This was the first kit in the lineup that starred a car that I truly liked though.

    The gamers have spoken.

    Yeah, eat your heart out Bungie Inc.:

    Yeah, if it was larger I'd get one. It doesn't even have any figures of Liquid or Grey Fox (R.I.P.) to establish scale.

    I'm in the same boat. My backlog of unbuilt kits is so old that I haven't gotten to build my Sinanju. I'm surprised there's no available aftermarket metal frame available for the Sinanju yet. I bought one for RG Nu just as a trial, and it worked out quite well.

    This is the kind of product I wish more companies would make: It's a set of replacement joints from 107 Toys to make the RG Sinanju kit sturdier. IIRC that kit used waist joints from the smaller Gundam Mk.II, resulting in a Sinanju that cannot support its own backpack and torso weight. Now if 107 Toys can aim their creative guns at the self-exploding RG Zeta Gundam kit...

    A new challenger awaits: I'm guessing they changed the fork covers for legal reasons (even though it looks like it will come with the original covers)? I can't find details on it just yet. And with pre-orders asking over 50 USD for it, I reckon it won't be too big.

    Operation Night Strikers has hit the market: For me, Night Striker alone along with its Zuntata soundtrack makes this one a worthy purchase. This also sets up the sequel quite nicely:

    I guess after seeing the Back to the Future train I was expecting something bigger, but this is nice too.
  13. Valkyrie Hunter D
    Oooh, this will be interesting (and expensive):

    I haven't kept up with the Cobi catalogue lately, that Phantom looks cool. My boys and I had fun building their Concorde and Huey kits so I'll probably get their Phantom too.

    Brick Veteran's 1st Phantom set is going to be a gorgeous example of a USN F-4J, and here I am with a depleted play money budget:
