  1. I have the steel legends one, and apart from some tight joints it’s great. Few if any paint flaws, lots of detail, big and heavy yet everything stays in place when posed.
  2. Those Bandai kits are surprisingly nice. Easy build, transform well/easily, and a decent amount of detailing.
  3. I picked up the Bandai transforming SD kits, and I actually quite like them. Though I don’t think I’d ever spend the effort on building and painting an eggplane.
  4. Wow, that actually made me slightly interested in these. Not having to paint on all that striping is pretty huge.
  5. They had the pre-order up, but that's different than having the parts produced or the figures assembled. Plus there was a delay in releasing the Mirage unit, that could have been due to mold changes.
  6. I mean, yes? Can anyone see things changed from the pictures?
  7. Can anyone tell if there are any model improvements in the BCV version?
  8. You forgot how the international market's only way to watch the relevant movie currently have been camrips or going to Japan.
  9. They’re likely running out of storage space to hold all the PW items due to people leaving them to accumulate for *years* at this point. Space costs money, and keeping track of that huge number of already sold items also costs money, plus they’re responsible for if anything happens to the stored items.
  10. NY is dead, have been for a while now. You cannot order from them, and even if you found a way to you shouldn't.
  11. Try using a saved address if able, sometimes my address gives errors when I try to input it directly. Can also try using AVE vs Avenue, CT vs Court, Cir vs Circle, etc...
  12. Oof, that's some spendy VF-19S. Though looks like the YF-21 price went down a bit since Bandai announced their version.
  13. Suddenly a lot of interest in the Arcadia VF-0S.
  14. Looks like a normal version sold for about ¥35,000 back in early January on YJA. The harder part looks to be finding one for sale at a reasonable price.
  15. I think part of it is that buildings in disrepair are more interesting than clean modern buildings (which have very little detail). You also see a lot of older style architecture, stuff like the Opera House or the Boutique Hotel. Though it's likely a bit more repetitive of a build. Personally I like the more playable sets, like some of the roller coaster submissions, or the buildings with some built-in gimmicks.
  16. There's one on Yahoo Japan Auctions right now (unopened) for ¥60,500: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/w1037493683 You'll need to buy it through a proxy like From Japan or Buyee, and pay international shipping. Should come out under $700?
  17. Finally, took them long enough after that cliffhanger!
  18. Anyone know what the actual bandai price is for the Bogue 31AX?
  19. I meant it looks like the base of it is not wide/heavy enough to keep the thing being displayed from toppling. Need to have a low center of gravity and a wide base to avoid tipping.
  20. It’s siloed on the surface of a planet at the start, so air resistance does matter some.
  21. Hard to say, the MGEX Unicorn (¥23,000) didn't have all the gold plated bits, but it did have a full LED kit built in. Probably in the ¥15,000-¥20,000 range? The fully plated normal release MG kits (Phenex ¥12,000, Hyaku Shiki ¥6,800) aren't that expensive. Though the P-Bandai and Expo ones are usually quite a bit.
  22. Sounds like at least part of it is changing the head laser to a shallower angle.
  23. They seem to have been putting in a single green tea KitKat recently. Got it in 2 of 3 things I bought from them.
