That site is... Kurama Shop? Making sure.

Metal Build Aile Strike Gundam. Metal Build is another premium toy line, similar to the DX Chogokin series.

^ And YET my interest is once again piqued.

Okay, I'm gonna dip out of this for the next hour or two. Nothing anyone can do but wait at this point. I'll try to post any links available when I get back, just on the off chance that anyone has missed them before then.

Thirded. After the VF-31A disappointment, I'm itching for fortune to finally favor me.

Seems the DX YF-19 release time is 6pm JST as well. So... best of luck, folks. Phew. I'm glad I'm only keeping track of the YF tonight... EDIT: Source = https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10534411 "DX Chogokin YF-19 Full Set Pack (Completed) preorders will start after PM6:00 of 27th April, Japan time[GMT+9]" -
Oh wait, you're right... Hm... I hope this does't mean I have to stay up even later. I feel terrible for all you EST people... EDIT: That would be in line with the MB Aile Strike's release time, too. Seems Bandai is changing things up...
-
Yes, because it doesn't officially go on sale until then.

They won't.

Ah, I see; thanks for the clarification, you two.
-
Seconded.

You're welcome to list at any price you want. I could've sworn I've seen a forum rule (or maybe just unofficial code of conduct) that people can't/shouldn't criticize you for it openly, and take any price disputes to PM. Can't seem to find it, though. Seems like a good way to go about things, and for what it's worth, the price is totally fair. Like CharlesXavier said, willing seller willing buyer.

Do NY et al have more... shall we say... "up to date" search functions than HLJ? No having to do an advanced search, just look the item up through the regular search function?
-
Those are official product pics. Though yes, even so that's a great build. ...makes me wonder what happens to those kits used for promo pictures. Hasegawa should have Tenjin or Kawamori sign the base and sell them for a premium. I'd be first in line for some of them, no doubt about it.
-
Shouldn't there already be some up? I think for the MB Arbalest and re-release Laevatein, CDJ, Amiami, NY, and Hobby Search all had pages up several hours to a day in advance...

I'm not too bothered by that, considering the design of the YF-19 is inherently all sorts of ridiculous. The things they keep (relatively) consistent from design to artwork to cel is what's important, at least to me. The two deviations that the DX makes - the chest and the feet - bother me the most because they disrupt the otherwise consistent design of those areas. And really, it's only the feet that I have a major bone with; the chest looks fine in its own right, it's just "bad" because it's different. I've said it before, but my ideal YF-19 toy would be a 3-set of separate Fighter, Gerwalk, and Battroid modes, all tailored to best exemplify the design in each form. So a slim, long fighter, a somewhat deformed Gerwalk with exaggerated legs and arms, and a chunky, aggressive Battroid. (I keep hoping against hope that Hasegawa will release Battroid and Gerwalk YF-19 kits that do just this...)
-
I was wondering about that. Thanks very much. Is it the same regarding the toes? I'm considering 3D-printing my own set of replacement feet if the ones on the final product are as... lopsided as the promo pics look to be.
-
Is it just me? For a while now I've seen a lot of these links show up as errors. (I'm guessing this is the "don't argue about price" thread?)
-
Oh, my bad. I thought these were already released. Whoops. Best of luck, WaferMouse.
-
Has anyone on here bought/built one of these? Doesn't seem like reaction was all that hot to it. (For me it's the Girl that killed the kit. I STILL don't get why they couldn't have included one of the many many MANY Macross females instead.)
-
Thanks, I'll add that to the post. I didn't know if I wanted to include timezones for every place I knew people were from, because

I knew this would come in handy:

Shame the gunpod is still the spindly-looking thing that the Advance had.
-
^ Okay, so I might be wrong about this, but just hear me out. I think you might need bigger paint cups for those. More seriously, though, someone mentioned rattle cans earlier, and I wonder if this kit might actually justify the crazy amount of paint those things shoot out.
