    I have seen the movie once or twice, but it was years ago. From what I remember it wasn't the best but wasn't terrible either. Most if not all the gundam movies aren't that good, so it is on par with the others. Mostly re-watching for the suits and for recently finishing Super Robot Wars V.

    I have been enjoying the story so far. The characters are interesting and the plot is moving along. I like the proto-Sazabi, the Gundam built by the Titans and the Theta plus. Really hope they do a Theta model kit, that would be awesome.

    I really enjoyed 00 Gundam, I think it is one of the better alternate universes. Recently I re-watched the series and still have to get to the movie. Definitely getting the ultra blu-ray collectors edition coming out in August.

    Thank you very much for the offer but I already purchased the part from F360.

    Did the Avalanche have a giant sword in the side story?

    The last thing I need is more Exias Except for the Metal Build Astrea, at least it is red.

    I considered the new MG Avalanche Exia Bandai is releasing but I already have the Metal Build Avalanche Exia.

    Hi guys, I am hoping to get some advice from the members that have bought items from Jungle. They have a few listings for the Metal Build Avalanche Exia Dash parts, one of the listings is a "B" rating and $30 cheaper than the listing with an "A" rating. They don't have any description for the listing. http://jungle-scs.co.jp/sale_en/?page_id=121&id=2263595 For the members that have bought items from Jungle are "B" rated items OK and it is worth saving the $30? Thanks!

    Congrats on your first gundam!! Out of curiosity what made you decide to go with the 00 Qan[T]?

    BBTS and USA gundam store are safe bets. They get P-Bandai models but the pre-orders go up later. If Nippon Yasan is an option for you they offer a better price. Most of the gunpla will have a pay later option.

    I got my premium version in yesterday at work, no way was I going to ship it to my house and get the look of "How much was that?" from my wife. I was very tempted to open it up and SWOOOSH it as I left the office with my phone playing the theme song.

    Third Party companies can be very inventive and have the ability to try different things without going through red tape. FansToys was able to make a complete set of Masterpiece scale dinobots and Iron Factory is continually releasing new characters in legends scale. I think third parties would do better than the official companies.

    A third party doing MOSPEADA is wishful thinking but I can see them doing a good job.

    Fanshobby is a great choice. They do the bulky and boxy designs well. Plus their transformers are meant to be played with.

    I feel a 3rd party company would have a good chance at making a decent Legoiss. Sentinel hasn't had the best track record with transforming figures. Besides the Ride Armor their other attempts haven't been successful.

    HLJ came through! I got my order confirmation!
  18. General Rasp
    Considering HLJ just got slammed with hundreds of orders withing one minute, it might take a little while for the confirmation emails.

    HLJ's system is solid, they still don't have any slow downs.
  20. General Rasp
    HLJ is LIVE!!

    I just noticed that NY has the Harrison F91 in stock for 25,500 yen and placed my order. Hurray!

    For anyone wanting the Metal Build Strike but can't make the pre-order time I recommend keeping an eye on https://www.eknightmedia.com/. They carry Metal Builds and I was able to get the 00 Gundam Seven/G when missed the pre-order window. They do get there shipments a month or two after release but at least you will have one.

    @mechaninac C looks great, I would be in for a couple. Looks like I am going to have to find some tamiya paint. Hopefully the paint is layered clear blue then smoke but I will have to test to make sure.

    Since you read the manga I recommend: 08th MS Team, 0080 War in the Pocket, 0083 Stardust Memory, Zeta Gundam (In that order) All of those are solid series. War in the Pocket is a little slow but short (total of six episodes). Zeta will look and feel dated compared the first three. There is a movie compilation for Zeta if you don't want to watch all 50 episodes. That is like phase one of the Gundam U.C. Timeline. After that you get ZZ Gundam, Char's Counter Attack (movie), Unicorn Gundam and F91 (movie). ZZ Gundam is a hard watch in my opinion. The first season is really rough and the second gets a little better. Definitely recommend CCA and F91, very good movies that should have had their own series. Gundam Thunderbolt is also great and happens during/after the One Year War. The thing with Thunderbolt is that the technology is really advanced for the time period and can be considered separated from the main U.C. canon. Also they have been releasing the manga, I say read manga if you have time then watch the anime. The manga flushes out a few more things than the anime. But that is my personal opinion. And if you want something a little more contained Gundam Wing, Gundam 00, Mobile Suit Iron-Blooded Orphans are really good. Both only have one main series (50 episodes) with a movie/OVA and are completely separate from the U.C timeline.
