KOG Water Dragon

Worth buying the mag for alone? Or is there other Macross stuff in the issue?

Haven't seen a mention of it yet.

What isn't a Bandai kit?

Well crap. I wish I'd known. I would have ordered two. Now it's marked discontinued at HLJ. I'll have to get a second one elsewhere.

I want it for the Kakizaki decals and the box art. I'll pay extra if I have to.

Seems to be the case.

I'm a little worried, no private warehouse notice for the VF-1A Max I pre-ordered yet...

Japan only web exclusive or something.

Do we know if the Kakizaki unit is out as well, assuming one can figure out how to obtain one?

I ordered 3 decals along with 3 of each kit. When the kits and decals got released, kits went straight to backorder and i got nothing, but the decal order was fulfilled. A little while later, kits still backordered, but decals sitting there in stock. So I tried ordering another 3, to see what would happen. They went ahead and fulfilled the order, despite my other 3 sets still sitting there in private warehouse. So if they were ok with it, I feel clear conscience

I did. I did order the VF-22s on day one. I actually got 6 sets of the decals from HLJ, but 0 of the kits. 🤣

Ordered one of each. Which isn't super helpful as I like to get 3 of each. But I'm likely to get all mine local since HLJ rarely comes through for me. I still haven't gotten any of the Max/Miria VF-22s I ordered.

I'm thinking it was designed with close quarters combat in mind, for dense urban environments. I don't know if we ever really see it used that way, but it makes sense.

Really wish they'd put work into a Spartan, now that they could use the design for both 1/72 and 1/100 scale kits.
