    https://www.taghobby.com/archives/738551 I like that the blue colouring is not too metallic, but errs more on the matt side.

    That is some nicely engineered torso and shoulder articulation for the YF-21.

    Pre-order: 2 October

    Correct, but there is also the recent Shin Getter 1, Laevatein has just released and Sirbine as well as a Ryujinmaru are soon to come.

    Don't forget Gamlin's -22S, greenish-grey with yellow stripes for the win!

    Trust me when I say that I already know what that word means. 🙂

    Lovely. If only we could get a new show with our beloved G1 Transformers with classic vibe and attitude like this.

    I like what Pose+ is doing here, but I still need to get used to those rounded hips and thighs. Feels a bit out of place with the rest of the angular design.

    You know I'm reading this and I'm seeing scenes of 08th MS Team and Gouf Custom flash up before me – not KÃĪmpfer. You sure you are not mistaking the OVA here? 😛😄 The special forces/SWAT team connection has never occurred to me, but I can see how that would make the KÃĪmpfer somewhat special amongst other Zeon MS. Hmm... interesting, the Geara Doga has always been the more "German MS" for me, especially for the head design. And I'm not really a colour guru, but to me it's a long way between the KÃĪmpfer blue and German grey. I guess it boils down to the MS design not really being in line with my aesthetic preferences, that very bulbous and somewhat squat main body in combination with the wider looking hips throws me off. Thank you all for your input on the KÃĪmpfer. I'm torn, on the one hand I want to give it pass, but on the other hand with a possible Gundam NT-1 (however long that might take) it would be a great companion to have in the collection. As it is P-Bandai, it will be well over 40k Yen to get a pre-order in – I need to contemplate.

    I like it and will pick one up, and with WWM this should be a relaxing pre-order phase. I'm glad there is a company that acknowledges YF-21 as three mode mecha in total and not just a future fantastic fighter jet with some type of half hearted bonus modes tacked on.

    A novel and bold move by Bandai to initiate a new animation entry in the Metal Build line with a non-Gundam or non-hero mecha. I guess that means to also start saving money for the eventual MB Gundam NT-1 release (Chobham armour P-Bandai release ). Maybe someone can explain, but personally I have never understood this love affair for the KÃĪmpfer. If my memory is not failing me, it featured briefly in one episode and didn't really do anything noteworthy, only to quickly get dispatched by the NT-1?

    Ash like snow... Ash like snow... Had some free time to spend on the Dynames. Definitely a great entry for MB line, love that sniper rifle.

    Maybe 1/100 only applies to fighter mode? What are the actual measurements for the two Battroids, would be nice to know if any of those properly scale to those official specs?
  18. lechuck
    Thanks! Indeed it is the SOC Mazinkaiser SKL. Honestly it is a bit of a disappointing attempt by Bandai, most of the articulation doesn't have good range and the biggest offender is when attaching the two guns to the chest. They do not lock in securely enough and will easily pop-out when touching it from certain angles due to how rounded the chest is. Unless you are a die hard SOC collector or big fan of SKL, it should not be priority purchase. My hope is that Sentinel might take a stab at it in their Riobot line.

    Not official Metal Build, but it is possible to achieve that now with some third party offering a replacement metal frame for the MG Hi-Nu Ver.Ka. TLX 1/100 TLX-04 Metal Frame Upgrade Kit for MG RX-93-2 Hi-Nu Gundam Ver.Ka Point Factory Studio 1/100 Alloy Frame Upgrade Kit for MG RX-93-Î―2 Hi-Î― Gundam Ka Versio

    Already? I thought pre-orders don't start until 13/09. Anyway I pre-ordered, not making the same mistake like I did with the Dynames, having to spend even more on the secondary market.

    One more night to go.

    Nice. Now imagine walking in there and asking the store clerk when the latest Transformers will be incoming. ðŸĪŠðŸ˜„ Hopefully we get to see something like this in Europe, but I'm guessing it would probably end up in London or Paris not anywhere in Germany. Right in line with every other nerd/geek boutique shop out there, followed by people catching on that prices are too high, less visitors/buyers, no new stock, shop going into a lull sitting on old stock and finally closure after a brief couple of years. We will have to see how long corporate Bandai will want to entertain something like this outside Japan.

    The greatest victory is that which requires no battle or in trend speak – total ownage! After all these years, this is to me is still a great TNG/Picard moment.

    Let the pre-order wars begin!
