  1. Metal Structure is the super detailed super gimmick top of the line Metal Build is the next step down thats smaller in size 1/100 and has great detail in both frame and accessories with a full alloy skeleton built in. Metal Robot is the next step down with the cool designs based off of gunpla kits. More plasticy , less detailed but also a lot more friendly on the wallet. It really just depends on which figures you want Metal Robot Spirits has a better/wider selection where metal builds are seen 2-3 times a year and Metal Structure is seen once every 2-4 years and costs in the thousands. im sure I left something out or if im wrong someone please correct me
  2. "We will broaden the Brands offerings by expanding the choice of characters and creating unique variations" Havent they been fleecing fans with their unique variations of releasing the same figure in a different color for a while now?
  3. I am in this same boat. I want the spears but I do not want any more Evas. This is also considering there is nothin new/special/updated about them. At least with the 2020 test type they had a unique coloration I have been holding out for GFFMC Heavy Arms as well. Considering Bandai already has so many Gunpla variants of it im really surprised we havent seen it yet. Im sure people would pay good money to complete a GFFMC EW set considering the big nostalgia factor behind Endless Waltz
  4. Its hard to process what bandai does next. Remember the GN arms unit? They displayed it and it wasnt til 4-5 years later that we actually got one. Given they just created a mold and such for Burning Gundam I would not be surprised if we see Shining gundam first. It would be similar to what they have done withe Exia, Astray and Crossbone figures
  5. Pre Order now live at Hobby Genki ¥11,090.00 https://hobby-genki.com/en/metal-build/52068-metal-build-hyper-mega-launcher-option-set-limited-edition-4573102675163.html
  6. Thats no excuse from the guy that used to pre order like 4-5 VF-1 planes at a time. Also does anyone here collect those Heat Boys Mecha Ninja Turtles (I know,slightly off topic). I was asking in case anyone needed parts for the Ninja Turtles van or wanted to trade. I bought Donatello and have the runner with the sides of the van but will probably never buy the other 4 if anyone is interested in them or trading (Raph/Michael) parts so I can complete the van
  7. It was a Battle Royale type gundam thing. It was a really cool concept for its time and one of the more underrated series in the Cartoon Network days (just my opinion)
  8. I havent been able to find anything other than P Bandai Singapore / Japan Even then it sold out in 4 minutes. Not really sure why bandai is pulling the limited edition BS with this. Im sure they would make a lot more money if they just made these readily available.
  9. SO these went to lottery sales for the first release, then bandai released the accessory sword kits and then bandai releases the actual full saber for regular sales?? how sneaky of bandai to maximize their profits
  10. I totally agree, also a must for me. btw does anyone know where there is a GFFMC Deathscythe Roussette available? I totally slept on the pre order and dont want to pay $450 to bandai
  11. The Red and Yellow skulls are beautiful ... Do you have a rough estimate of when these are expected to go live?
  12. There are two Sazabis. One with a basic red color and one with a more metallic red. It is possible that the recent release dropped in price. Maybe people werent feeling the metal build price tag on a chogokin
  13. Yes. As someone who has been into gundam and gundam products since the release of gundam endless waltz on cartoon network I, in my opinion, can say Bandai has progressively gone down hill sometime after 2012. This used to be a hobby to share and be passionate about but Bandais corporate greed has now made it a competition between collectors and scalpers. Gundamit KO stuff and Moshow Toys have been getting a lot more of my money as of the last couple of years.
