  1. I just received an email from HLJ saying that my pre-order for the new Z Gundam Ver.ka won't be fulfilled on this print but i will have to wait for the next one, which is probably going to happen in the fall but they are not sure. It's the first time that something like this happens to me and I am pretty sure that this kind of mess is due to the new Bandai policy of not selling gunpla outside Japan. Anyway that's a different story. Now, do you guys have any idea where i can find a copy? It's very likely that i will be moving to another country in the summer so i really want to get this piece in the next couple of months...I am located in Europe. Thank you.
  2. Those are really beautiful! What about the customs, are they model kit or yamato/arcadia? Also, i always wondered, does the weathering version from Yamato come with waterslide decals?
  3. Beautiful video! It will definitely help me a lot once i have to transform the new Z into wave rider mode. Actually after watching this video i have to admit that i like this version better in WR mode than Mobile suit.
  4. I just received the shipping request from Anime-export. Shipped via EMS. I hope it will be here before Easter.
  5. I own both arcadia and bandai and i do love both of them. If there is one thing i wish arcadia had was the arm cannon the DX comes with. In battroid mode it looks really stunning. Also if you decide to go for the arcadia one you might want to keep your eyes open for the Premium finish version which has been released yesterday. It is a bit more expensive than the regular one but it might be worth the price.
  6. Wow, it does look beautiful. The panel lining looks great. More subtle than the 0D for sure.
  7. Everytime i look at VF-1 customs like the ones in the previous pages i always think about how many possibilities there would be for some "gaiden" or parralel story set into the timeframe of the SDFM series. A show or a manga that would tell the stories of other squadrons, possibly with a little bit more action and less love songs(only for this occasion).

    Macross figures

    Do we know how tall Minmay and the other two figures are going to be?
  9. This is the wonder fest week, right? I am not expecting any bombs but i really wish we could see something new or at least refreshing like a 2.0 YF-21 or M0 CF...
  10. Thanks, i will definitely look into that!
  11. Thanks, but i think it would be really expensive to hunt down for one, unfortunately. I will keep an eye open for them anyway, thanks for the info!
  12. Yes, it was the V2 for sure. I have the V1 and the two pilots are just regular SDFM pilots wearing a white and green uniform
  13. That would be perfect but at this point i would go with one with an helmet too...my VF-1D is in gerwalk mode holding Minmey in one of its hands...i like that pose and i really don't want to change it. I hoped Bandai was going to put an extra pilot on the angel birds release....but knowing bandai they will probably be organizing a lottery. Send 5 coupons of the 5 angel birds you bought and you will have the chance to win an extra Hikaru Hichijo figure without the helmet to put into the Fan racer...jokes aside i really hope to find one sooner or later. What about the one in the arcadia release of the fan racer?
  14. I decided to pull the trigger for two...for the amont of space i have (and the amount of money) it looked like the perfect number for me. And i was lucky i could get both for a good price.i was wondering though, was anyone able to recreate a Hikaru's figure for the fan racer included in the VF-1D? I wanted to display mine with the Fan racer in the middle but there was only one pilot in the box of the 1D... i wouldn't mind buying a resin (or plastic) copy (possibly without the helmet) and painted it myself.
  15. Thank you. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't a second batch kind of thing and it was delayed only for those placed pre-order after a certain date.
  16. That's correct, although i think it was more for trying to correct the mistake of the inverted number on the Hikaru's VF-1S(001-100). Personally i think that the best solution would be to add a small sheet of decals so everyone can decide which number to put on the toy and can buy multiple without having to worry about having two VFs with the same number.
  17. On the yamatos it wasn't a problem because you could use stickers or waterslide in order to put whatever number you want. But in the VF-25 from frontier the number was already printed on it, 027 if i rember correctly. I actually do not own the toy but my understanding from reading reviews here and there was that you could not change the number. Since that Bandai does not use stickers or decals on their dx it would be a problem for me if they just print a random number all around the VF and doesn't give you the chance to change it.
  18. I am too, actually one of the few releases that i am pretty sure i am going to buy(both SDFM and DYRL). I have been wondering though, how are they going to solve the question of the aircraft number...it would be a bummer if it was like for the CF from Frontier, where you just have to stick with the number already printed on it. That would stop a lot of people (including me) to buy more than one copy per VF.
  19. Looking forward for some pictures in bike mode. Although i don't think anything is going to change on the helmet.
  20. I don't disagree. Way better actually.
  21. It would be a really cool design...except for those bunny ears on the helmet.
  22. Seems like Z Gundam Ka release has been postponed to april...are you guys getting notifications about that too?
  23. For me the choice would be that or paying € 5.000 + shipping + import fees. And if you live in europe it's very likely that you won't have any import fees to pay from anime export(or very little). I ignore the shipping cost. Compared to what i have been hearing in the last few days doesn't seem that bad to me. So yes, call me crazy but i call this a decent deal(which i cannot afford and even if i could i probably wouldn't feel comfortable to pull the trigger).
  24. 😍😍😍 Thank you so much!!! I never check the BBTS because i live in Italy and it's not very convenient for me to buy in the states...but it looks like i was actually able to secure a pre-order for both and i m really happy about that. Thank you again!
