  1. MMMM..... Kampfer. I would love to see a Metal Robot Spirits Kampfer. http://www.taghobby.com/archives/243496 http://www.taghobby.com/archives/243712 I will be adding the C1 Zeta plus and Code Geass Albion to my pre-order when they go up.
  2. If Bandai adds the ratcheting hips from the VF-31 that would one-up the Arcadia. Those new VF-31 hips are so nice.
  3. Very cool! I love the Zeta plus designs and I will definitely pre-order this one. I hope they do the Blue and Red versions with the booster equipment. The older metal composite ones are too expensive right now on the secondary market.
  4. Just got these in today from HLJ!!! I can't believe I have a 1/60 Milia!! Just need Max now and I will be pretty set with my VF-1 collection. Looking forward to opening up Big Powered later tonight and seeing how everything comes together.
  5. That is not a bad price before the international shipping. I am going to have to try From Japan. I pre-ordered through Big in Japan and the shipping for EMS or FedEx was 4,050 yen.
  6. Big in Japan has pre-orders for the 2nd batch. https://www.biginjap.com/en/completed-models/19881-metal-build-gundam-astraea-type-f-gn-heavy-weapon-set.html FYI, shipping to Michigan was 4,050 yen through FedEx or EMS. These metal build just kept getting more expensive to get.
  7. Out of curiosity, has anyone had a problem cancelling an order with Big in Japan?
  8. I am holding out for Nippon-Yasan since I waited too long with BiginJapan. I would have jumped sooner on Big in Japan, had I known CD Japan was over $300. If there is enough demand they might do a re-issue similar to the Metal Build Heine Destiny.
  9. http://tamashii.jp/special/metalbuild/astraea/?wovn=en Well the Metal Build Astraea is on the "I MUST BUY IT!" list. I was interested in getting it when Bandai made the announcement a couple of months ago but wasn't completely sold. In the manga the suit gradually gains more equipment which is a key part in story and makes this Gundam special. Since Bandai is including every single piece from the manga plus some (I don't remember if the suit having four shields or two proto-GN Swords) I am definitely pre-ordering it. Bandai made the right move waiting two or three years to release this figure and did not release the different weapons as "sets". It is always appreciated when Bandai does not hold back on the accessorizes for these expensive figures. The number of different options and no worrying of "will there be other weapon sets later or reissues that includes different weapons" makes the price worth it. This is going to be another Metal Build figure that I am really looking forward to.
  10. That is fair. I have gone through Nippon Yasan which isn't bad, but I hate paying for their shipping. The proxy sites aren't bad either but extra fees suck.
  11. Stupid web exclusives, gotta make things difficult. Probably still going to buy it.
  12. It is probably a really good thing the stores in my area don't sell these, I would be so broke. Just walk in a store and see Arcadia and Hi-Metal figures, I would have no will power.
  13. Something would be nice . Even a post saying sorry again for the delay.
  14. Just got these guys in! I feel the $38 FedEx shipping from HLJ was a little high considering the size of the box. I got them in 4 days but $30 - $35 seems more reasonable. The destroids are like shots, the more you have the better things get!
  15. I believe you are thinking of Houquet, she had a bazooka-ish weapon. I remember Ray using the small pistol. I wonder if they will be able to pull off Yellow's armor with the missile bays in the front. Pre-ordered at HLJ!! Two down, two to go.
  16. Same here, I have about 10-12 pre-orders coming out in the next three months and none of them are cheap. I cancelled my pre-order for Re:edit Iron Man House of M armor since I will probably find it later, maybe a discount price if lucky.
  17. It looks really good but way too expensive after the extra fees and shipping. I hope the do the VF-31A in the Hi-Metal R, after they have finished all of the mecha from the original. I would love to have three of the VF-31A as a small squad in that scale.
  18. I am just happy they decided to re-release Max and Milia. There is no way I would pay the second-hand market prices. The delay sucks but better that instead of a $200 toy with quality control issues. I do wonder if this will delay the release of the SDF-1 and Max.
  19. Sweet you got the Hi-Metal Xabungle! What do you think? Lol, that a lot HLJ packages to come in. So I wasn't the only one waiting for Milia to be release and ran out of days with the PW? I will make sure to add mine to the thread when it comes in later this.
  20. B2five is the company producing the 1:28 line and there website mentioned that they will have other toy brands in the future. https://b2fiveshop.com/pages/about-us The Acid Rain line was always interesting but expensive. The 1:28 look really to actually play with and wouldn't take up alot of space. They remind me of Takara's diaclone reboot with everything is design to be played with. I haven't had any paint issues with my diaclones despite the numerous transformations. I am hoping b2five is the same and keeps going.
