    Bought a Tekkaman Blade figure from some maker I've never heard of before. I it's a pretty nice figure, if a bit on the pricier side.

    I just PO last week the Reissue of Jungle of Tekkaman figure from HLJ I think is the same one you have, I always been a fan of Tekkaman and after doing some research I preorder, by the way how are material quality of this Tekkaman?, ulitmately what make me PO this figure were three things, the looks of  it, the height and very important to me the heft. 

    and this , 1 Kg? yikes!

    Not sure why in the description in HLJ or AmiAmi they don't add the manufacturing description , it took me a while to find correct one in youtube :D 

    I think it goes like this:

    Product Line: Metal Power , Maker: Innovation Point ,   Main Company name?Jungle

    This is a sister site to Showzstore. They created it to handle more of the Gundam type related merch. Have ordered from them many a time with great success. What I really like is that any points you have at Showz work there also, so if you've racked up mega points you can use them across both platforms...ultra cool.

    And yes, Alex GS, whatever they set the preorder up for is all you pay to guarantee a reservation spot. They will let you know when the item is in stock and that's when the remainder of your payment is due. I hope they stick around a long time cause they are one of the most solid collectibles platforms I've had the pleasure of dealing with.

    Just noticed 'mantisfists' already answered Alex GS...my bad.

    Thanks as well Claude :good:, is always great to know more information about good sites to get our high end figures, is not that easy to jump and try buying right away import stuff from websites you have never bought or knew they existed.

    Yes.  Also guarantees the preorder price whenever it is listed.  If the price goes up, you get the price you preordered at.  Show.z/Gundammit has some of the best after purchase customer service/support on the internet as well. Any problems with breakages or missing pieces are fixed at no cost to you. Shipping costs are included in the price, though it takes a bit longer than DHL/UPS. They also have one of the best rewards programs out there. Excellent place to order figures. I obviously highly recommend them.

    Thanks for the reply, I just order it. I hope it stays true to the design shown so far, I been collecting  high profile figures for more than a decade now and this Cyclone looks effing amazing despite some say otherwise.

    it looks so damn good, open up the POs for this one already!,   I hope the materials used are good quality, one of the reasons I stop from buying the Riobot versions is cause it looks so fragile  and  the price is kinda high for what they are offering, and since this is Moshow I have high hopes for it.  

  5. looking around in Amazon and this pop out not sure if this was post some pages back in this thread , it actually has good reviews 😅, very Jetfire and 1/55 takatoku look alike chunkyness, but this ko is made all of plastic.

  6. Most of the bad reviews refer to cheap plastic, and kinda I don't blame them, putting aside the great designs still when you grab them you instantly feel how light the valk feels , this line have always raised an eyebrow for me referring to the high metal R description, where exactly is the high metal Bandai?, unlike the Metal Robot line from Bandai mostly for Gundams , still the figures is small but you can definitely feel the heft due to its metal structure content of the figure, nonetheless I like the Hi Metal R line due to its: one is Macross :D, second it has a great detail design, and has lots of goodies inside most releases, so pretty much I know what I'm getting into when grabbing a Hi Metal R Valk so is cool, I know Bandai could do better with this line I mean just look at the insane 1/48 DX Chogokin VF valks, those are stunning :D.   Great price by the way for the VF 0S, would grab one but I just payed Ami for the Hi Metal R VF-0D a few moments ago alongside a not so nice DHL shipping handling fee. 

  7. Looks so beautiful even with low res pictures 😄, never had the opportunity to have the Yamato  or the Arcadia one due to its high selling price, even the standalone booster is very effing expensive,  so no way I'm skipping this Arcadia package release, I hope it sells fine enough so maybe just maybe Arcadia considers releasing the VF-19s and VF-19p as well.

    This is my hot take

    Dx Yf- 19 was a rip off of arcadia’s redesigned yf-19 version 3. 

    esp high speed mode wings were blatantly copied from arcadia’s version 3.  And the dx 19 came out nice.

    same for dx vf-1. copied most of arcadia 2.0 vf-1. tweaked it and it came out nice. 
     

    Yf-21 is bandai’s  first design for without being able to copy a redesign reference from yamato/Arcadia. May turn out good or bad. 
     

    i really hope Arcadia does a redesigned yf-21 to go along with their yf-19 version 3 after the dx 21 releases to stick it to bandai. 

    I kind don't think is a rip off from Arcadia the YF 19, I think  Arcadia and Bandai did a great job in their own respective YF-19 designs, the Arcadia and even Yamato love the bulkiness of each one of them how they look in their three respective forms, for Bandai love how slick/lean an more anime accurate the design is, also Bandai don't have that gap between the upper leg and lower leg in fighter mode.😄

    for the DX Bandai YF 21 in my opinion is now the opposite, the DX Yf 21 seems more bulky this time than the Yamato YF-21, the Yamato one looks more anime accurate and lean this time. Nonetheless I will try to get at leas two DX Chogokin YF 21 no doubt 😁.
