Thanks for the rundown. I thought it was a MB by looking at it too and went to the MB list to check it out and couldn't find it.

How about value? Would you consider that a $200 figure? $225?

Thanks as always!

I wouls say less than 200, it is small as kuma said. It would be little bit disappointing compare to MB standards if you spend 200-225USD.  Also ORB-01 does not have lots of equipments, the coating of gold color is very expensive that makes the price not very reasonable. 
However, without considering the price it is a good collection, it is more like the TV series not MB kind of style.

lOOKING GREAT @carlsylar

Thx XD, love your photos ! 

Finally got some time to play these around, and some new arrival of metal robot and robot spirits of KA YAY. Waiting for X2 and EVA-02(*❦ω❦)

You asked what the description said and I answered with what the description said. And I stated that they state that pieces are broken and/or missing so I don't know what the latter half of this response really means? I'm a bit confused but hopefully you've gotten the information you were looking for.

--------------------------

I feel like an oddball not really being as much into the Astrays as most other people seemingly are. I don't know what it is but I have yet to see a single Metal Build variant that really strikes me. In fact, I'm getting this latest red more for the Aile Strike parts than anything else.

It's okay, maybe it is my english== not your problem I am being clearly asnwered. Thx 

------------------------------

For the red astray it is the third time bandai sell it so I am a little bit tired of their repainting works. Personally I feel the only thing new is the transfer item that allows astray to equip strike gundam's package. However, it is a bit odd for astray to use strike's equipment or strike to use astray's in my point of view

I know what listing he's talking about and it just showed it as being a full package. They show item and box grades but don't really give particular descriptions outside if anything broken or missing.

 

 

I mean it is not the original package they should inform the customer and they do say something about broken and missing unless it is a A grade item

So I ordered a Full set of the Destiny with the wings of light from AmiAmi

Aaaand they put the old Destiny with the set!!!

It was pre-owned but the description didnt say anything about it

 

Just waiting on their reply but  some kind of reimburse would be in order, or am I being too naive with their customer service?

 

 

What does the description say in the page of your order?

I have a Seven Sword.. what am I looking at here that's incorrect/wrong?

The face part and the antenna, they are not in a straight line

Just now, Kuma Style said:

So what does that have to do with being careful? I'm not trying to be funny because I've seen that issue but I was under the impression that it comes out of the box like that and not due to some sort of user mishap. 

Well I guess what I am trying to say is that you should know that. Since you already knew I think it's ok.

What does this mean?

Like this kind of issue, it is very common on all seven sword /G

Looking forward to seeing it offset the 7s/G

Be careful on the face, it has common issue that the face is misplaced

I wonder if bluefin will come through this month on the EVA-02. I’m was really surprised I got the EVA-01 from Entertainment earth before japan got stock in. Hopefully they can do it again

Yeah the brown shipper box tamashii we shop exclusives come in. Mine came with the box but it was opened however the item box was not

So the tape of the shipper box was cut and opened? That's strange.

If anyone is interested, http://newtypehq.com has several MB Eva-01, GFFMC Zakus, and GFFMC RX-78-2 figures in stock.

Amazon.com is still accepting PO for EVA-01 for 240 USD before tax and free shipping. Surething toys have Zaku for 220USD and RX-78 for 200 USD both freeing shipping.

Mine just came in today and the brown shipper box came with it lol. This is my second metal build and I’m seriously thinking of selling my collection to get the rest. It’s a perfect mix of gokin and plastic. The EVA-01 and strike freedom are solid like bricks but actually move really well, it’s crazy

There are three layers: brown shipper box, Soul blue cover, Strike Freedom box. Bluefin version does not have the second layer but still a great price and outstanding collection! I am looking forward to EVA-02 and crossbone X2 which will be release end of this month, can't wait !

Just got a look at my Metal Build Strike Freedom from bluefin website, there is a difference: the bluefin version does not come with the cover below but other versions does.

For those who own the Astraea (Not F,) how's the quality?

Better than F and cheaper than F, but F got more weapons

I've never PO'd one of these. I'm not finding them available for PO anywhere but the Tamashii Nations site linked above. Is this my only option?

And do I need to use a proxy for these through Tamashii?

Thanks!

i think u can look a few pages before there’s a instock link posted by F360. Since this is a pb item, in japan it will be sold in lottery and it is already sold in other area, I recommend you just buy one instead of PO one

Ok cool; I'll certainly be sure to ask any questions if i run into funny business.

I really want to read up and know the history behind this Mobile Suit. Everything about it is so interesting... and amazing displays btw.

 

Thx, but I’m still a beginner. Well the gffmc wing zero is more like Bandai original creation since this one is different from the one from OVA “endless waltz “. Gffmc version can shift into a plane and has extra canons looks like claw. The snow white was originally appear in the novel and does have any settings at all. I think the reason why Bandai makes it  is they want to reuse the tooling by changing the color and add little new stuff  to maximize the profit lol

7 minutes ago, Kuma Style said:

No. I'm getting the original. When I talk about the upcoming one I'll try to be consistent about calling it the Snow White gersion or whatever to differentiate. 

Well we joked dat by calling it “snow grey” since it looks light purple is the novel gallery but bandai makes the toy grey lol
