So, has anyone gotten tracking numbers yet for the Regult / Battle Pods? Sometimes when KC ships stuff there’s no e-mail from them, but it will be silently updated into the order # in one’s account.

At first I thought a variant kit being planned to be released, but no, it’s a custom paint job done by Jun Someya from Bandai Spirits Hobby Division. This glossy scheme is pretty cool.
-
Based on the video @treatment posted just above, the white parts are painted. At first I’m wondering if the nosecone tip could be molded in white, but when I look at the other VF-0 molds, the tip is not a separate piece from the rest of the nose, so it would have to be white-painted as well.

Nexx's is nice because he can dual wield weapons and I like that they are both different guns. Really hoping Bandai will move onwards to a HMR VF-2JA one day.. -

I can see why the chunky doesn't need changes if it is reissued again. It's just I'm seeing something similar over at the TF scene, where if I'm not mistaken (I didn't look much into it actually) new molds based on the original designs are being done, but with some updated articulations. So it's like a best of both worlds - a callback to nostalgia with some modern articulations to at least enable some basic decent poses. But the chunky is much better than the original TF toys to begin with anyway haha.

Ghost on the 0D does look pretty good! -
Cute eye decal haha.. but the Monster is just as imposing as ever. I don’t mind if Bandai reissues this.

This is a actually an old post, so not sure if it has been shown here before, but I just love the gold canopy tint. https://x.com/nseman/status/1109224738973343744

If Bandai gives the 1/55 another run, I wonder if it would be better to give it a small update by adding one or two more articulation points? Perhaps just a ball joint at the end of the swing bars at the hips so it can finally do a basic A-stance. Or should it remain as a straight reissue? Unfortunately, HG continues to have stranglehold on SDFM / DYRL designs.
-
Haha I think that’s what most think of too, seeing how memorable that scheme is.
-
Although Yamato's backpack sits close to the body, it really does hinder arm articulation. I was handling a 22 again not too long ago, and the elbows always want to bang against the backpack. Bandai's shouldn't have that problem, but they potentially might have overcompensated in that area with that big shelf between the shoulders lol.. Anyway, it's almost upon us and sculpt aside, fingers crossed Bandai delivers a product with solid build, engineering and tolerances.

"Well Biggs, last we met you weren't too happy with Gerwalk being not large enough to battle the alien giants. What do you think now?" "I think it's perfect, Wedge!"
-
Still not entirely convinced yet that it's actually a retail release outside Japan, until more stores are carrying them. It's entirely possible US stores that have already listed it are just buying via proxies and reselling, like someone said what BBTS sometimes do for P-Bandai Gundams, and there won't be any legal block this time as long as the item is not from SDFM / DYRL. Over at Asia, it looks like stores are selling it like a regular Macross P-Bandai item with appropriate proxy mark-up just like they always did for years, instead of JP-equivalent price that they normally do for other WWM items.
-
If Bandai watching this forum, they would have released the HMR Tomahawk long time ago. Unless they take pleasure in watching us collectors slowly implode by gaslighting us for years that the release of that is juuuuust around the corner... Never say never I guess. This missile pack was one of those items that Bandai broke their practice of never reissuing P-Bandai items.
-
Jungle still able to under declare? I guess that's good news for some of us, especially when Mandarake has stopped doing so. Meanwhile, another HMR VF-0D.

Guld is looking pretty good!
-
So does this mean it’s going to be normal release outside Japan?
-
Nice buys. Roy’s 1S reminds me of when Bandai made 2 separate listings for it, one with the stand and one without.
