  1. So just for clarification, Bandai released the Metal Build Exia that includes Repair III parts. https://tamashii.jp/item/10204/ Then they release the Exia Avalanche, it is the Metal Build Exia with Avalanche parts and different armor. https://tamashii.jp/item/10778/ The option parts you mentioned only go to the Exia Avalanche, I don't believe they are compatible with the regular Exia. https://tamashii.jp/item/10806/ Lastly, Bandai also release a weapon plus version of the Exia Avalanche. This version is the same as the previous one but includes two extra swords and a shield. I believe it is also harder to find at a good price than the regular Avalanche version. https://tamashii.jp/item/10779/ So I would recommend based on your post getting one of the Avalanche versions and the option set to go with it. I went with the regular release because it was accurate to the manga. Based on what I have read the Exia Avalanche only had (1) short sword, (1) long sword, and the GN Blade. Hope that helps.
  2. I like the set and think it is cool they are doing a three pack. I am passing on it since I don't collect DC (other than Batman Beyond) but the figure do look good.
  3. I would be surprised if it doesn't come with a display base. Stands were included with all previous GFFMC figures. Also did some comparisons between the regular Zaku II releases and the Black Tri-Stars. The previous Zaku II releases were 20,000 yen and the Black Tri Stars are 22,000 (excluding tax). The 24,000 yen price was with tax. So an extra 2,000 yen for an all inclusive package to make any of the three variants. I guess there will be plenty of extra pieces if something gets broken if you get three copies. Also to add to the fun that day https://tamashii.jp/special/metal_robot/barbatos_lupus/
  4. New information about the G.F.F.M.C Zaku II Black Tri-Stars. Pre-orders start April 2nd. https://tamashii.jp/special/origin/zaku_r1a/ https://tamashii.jp/item/13573/ Going to be an expensive pre-order.
  5. This is coming out sooner than I expected. And how is anyone supposed to get this during St. Patrick's day tomorrow? Poor timing.
  6. Super happy I pre-ordered the MG kit. Are those white pieces on the side and frond skits a separate piece or decals?
  7. If you want to pre-order the Robot Spirits EVA-02a head over to BBTS! $119 https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/155004
  8. BBTS reduced the pre-order price for Robot Spirits EVA-02a! $119 https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/155004
  9. BBTS reduced the pre-order price for Atlas Destroyer to $45. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/154593
  10. Good to know. I should have one or two items showing up in March that will push shipment order above $150.
  11. Thanks! Remember skipping The Chose Prime because BBTS was a little cheaper. Guess I will put in my pre-order for Unit 02 with TCP and see what happens.
  12. I am fighting the urge to buy the Chronicle White version because I already have the original release plus the weapon set. I don't need another white F91, I keep telling myself that.
  13. Thanks for sharing your impressions! Hopefully the figure reaches US retailers soon. HLJ got their stock today because it went from 'Order Stop' to 'Discontinued'. Did you order directly from ThreeZero? Seems like this figure has been slow to reach retailers.
  14. The regular release Mezco's seem to be hit or miss and I imagine alot of people hold-off pre-ordering until a review goes up. In Iron Fist's case the reviews were so good everyone jump on the remaining pre-orders and the value of the figure is going through the roof. Same thing might have happened to KGBeast. Then there are other times you are stuck with a dud like Cable that can't pose or hold the weapons. Might need to get a Ghost Rider pre-order if any are still available incase that one is amazing too. Just my opinion as an outsider looking in.
  15. Yeah, I will try for the other exclusives cause I am a gluon for punishment. Plus the Black Skulls in D amazing's review look pretty cool. Do you know the source of that post? I saw another post on twitter that is similar.
  16. I tired to get one but the site wasn't refreshing for me and the link didn't show-up until it was wait listed.
  17. The Robo-dou will be my first ThreeZero product also and I am eager to have it in hand. Yes, it is more expensive than the Robot Sprits but has more paint and better sculpt work. My concern is the build quality for this line. Based on reviews, the ThreeZero transformers are well built with great articulation and paint. Hopefully the Robo-dou is more like the Transformers line than their earlier work. As long as the figure can pose without issue the money will be well worth for me. And Sentinel is pricing me out too. For the price they charge I expect to move an arm or leg without pieces falling off.
  18. When I was looking a few weeks ago I was having trouble finding a store state side that had open pre-orders. I couldn't find an available pre-order but did find an eBay seller that had one at retail price ($190) with free shipping. Looks like the figure is in stock on at most US stores. https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/129581 I have a Threezero Eva 1 on pre-order at BBTS, really looking forward to that figure also. Wish I would have ordered through ThreeZero's store.
  19. Considering the EVA design is similar across all the units and they already have the mold, Bandai probably already has plans for other units. I can see them doing the "base" of every unit, even the Mark VI. I don't think we would get of the crazy EVA equipment designs though. Like mentioned above they would be massive. Plus the Dynaction EVA 1 sold out, so they won't be shelf warmers. My pipe dream would be see the Mass Production Eva with wings and a spear, completely over the top and far to big to display other than from hanging from the ceiling.
  20. I got my shipping notification too and it should show up Wednesday also. Looking forward to getting a new rumble society figure. Still wondering if Mezco is going to actually use that crypto cog.
  21. So I don't think Bandai has released a pre-order date for the Dynaction Eva 2 yet, only that information will be coming soon. The Robot Spirits however is available for pre-order here https://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000145955/?_ga=2.70193875.251868109.1615211245-1576291112.1614000627 but it is P-Bandai. Hopefully P-Bandai USA will offer pre-orders.
