  1. I dunno. They seem to release a Metal Build Exia variant every other week. It might be possible.
  2. I bought it and dual funnels too. Not a fan of price gouging but I don’t want this line to be a flop either. I’d love to see more 1/60th scale gundams out there from any maker. Hopefully Bandai and other third party makers here the fans, realize that there’s a market here, and make adjustments/plans accordingly.
  3. Thanks @sqidd! That looks a bit front heavy though and might topple forward. Have you considered putting another arm on there so the center of gravity is more centered in the middle? Did it make it more wobbly? I live in California so earthquakes are something I always need to think about.
  4. I broke a few Yeti stand arms trying to put together four Yamato VF1s (the heavy metal leg version 1/non-perfect transformation) on one stand. I gave up on it but I’m still interested in using these. How well do you guys think this stand would hold up a Bandai DX 1/48 VF-1 with strike packs in jet mode? It’s a heavy beast that seems to give Bandai’s own stand a bit of trouble. It feels very wobbly. Is there any modifications you would recommend to make it stronger/stiffer? Dual arms/longer screws/etc?
  5. I’ve been wanting to do this pose since I first saw it.
  6. Yeah haha! My shelves are fixed at 12" which is just tall enough for a DX Battroid without SSP to stand up in. Guess I'll have to take them out of the display case or display in Gerwalk or Valk modes. I dunno if I want to pay another $100+ for effect parts but it would be nice to have the option available! I think I'd go for a GBP with effect parts though.
  7. I might go for this. How does one start a sub for this? What are the best options to purchase and ship every other month or so to lower costs?
  8. Hmm. I wonder if Bandai is trying a new strategy here of incrementally releasing more units in batches. This way they don't sell out in the first few minutes/hours/days so scalpers don't purchase them all at once and give more people an opportunity to buy.
  9. They're available on P-Bandai right now. You can get them. Yeah, they reached out to me on Christmas day asking if they should continue looking/waiting for more stock. I thought we should be patient and sure enough orders opened up again. I had let them know and in a few hours they secured my order.
  10. I also ordered first night from AE. No confirmation email or anything but i got three sitting in stock (along with a couple of other items) waiting to ship. Woohoo! However, now that I’ve requested shipment all of the items I’ve ordered, history, etc, have disappeared. Is this normal? Seems kinda scary that their service works this way.
  11. I had an order with Dejapan for the fin funnels but my order is still open and the funnels are already sold out. I’m assuming they weren’t able to secure a copy. What are the chances they’ll have another wave of funnels available for order?
  12. Agreed. Go with your heart! However, I do have to mention that I think Vehicle Voltron is technically the better made toy. It's sturdier and has higher possibility. The GX-40R is an impressive looking piece but there have been reports of breakage where the arm robots break off from the main body. I don't know if this is from mishandling or if that connector is just too tight. I haven't even attempted to take mine apart. The bicep rotation is also very loose. It's beautiful if it's just 'standing there' though. Despite this, always go with what you have the most attachment to.
  13. That is an AMAZING pose that I'm going to have to copy/steal. Great pics as always @Kuma Style
  14. from google translate: And the proto package sample Arrived. This time too, Mr. Tsukasa Kobuki drew the package illustration! Nice! Please wait a little longer for release! # Megazone 23 # Garland
  15. Nope. Worst multiplayer game ever.
  16. That’s my favorite detail considering the other two releases where the pilot just gets jostled around.
  17. Who else is still waiting on an VF-1S from NY?
  18. If you were charged and it’s now in your PH then yes. You got one. Consider yourself lucky.
  19. Nice! Hopefully more people can get it and at a reasonable price. If only Bluefin was allowed to also sell Macross as well...
