Nice! Now you're making me want one too. I know this is the best solid RX-78 figure to collect but I'm still not sold on the overall re-design of it. Guess I have to wait until he finally shows up in the next Gundam The Origins installment. By the way, does this one comes with a stand like the Metal Builds figure? Or it only comes with a platform kind of base?

Is this something you have to be in the physical Gundam Base store in Tokyo to obtain it, correct? Probably it's best to ask members who's in Japan at this moment. And just pay their service fee. Or email proxy site and ask if they can get it for you like CDJapan, FromJapan, or Buyee.

Nah. Bandai is just telling us how screwed we are for their plastic creations. Hahaha!

That's true. In all its full color glory sans logos, labels, and whatnots. So even though I don't collect HMR besides the few I have, there's the Sortie book to fill my Macross addiction.

Point taken. And I do agree. It's just a wonder why they need to put it in the artwork even though it's not featured in the movie.

Looks awesome! Even though I still don't get that 'ring holder' wing design. Anyways, at this point I'm not sure if I'm going to get every Armor. I'm pretty sure I'll get one for Arad's 31S. If there will be no Super Parts for 31A and it will be just an Armored Pack, I'll get the Armored Pack instead.

Thanks guys! I didn't notice it at first that it was a black and white photo of the item itself. I do agree that it would be nice if the whole Tenjin image bleeds to where the black and white image is.

Nice! Regarding the boxart, I’m curious. Is the image behind the window panel area a black and white photo or a pic of a black skull squadron heat shield VF-1?

It’s a nice view from down here, Miss VF-31C.

The 31J Super Parts looks good indeed on a 31F.

True. I don't blame them actually. It's just their lack of customer service. At this point, I already stopped asking them about that missing exclusive item so that it won't jeopardize the VF-31A that I'm waiting for from them.

Oh yes. I do mean items. Because another ‘exclusive item’ got lost in transit and up to now I haven’t heard anything nor having reimbursement from them even though I keep on asking them via chat and ticket system. And it really tests your patience. So yes it’s ‘items’.

I agree. But for me lately, Arcadia is like HG now. Don’t get me wrong though. It’s just that it takes awhile for them to reissue and release their old VF-1/0 products and yet months and years after it gets released they’re still re-releasing the same thing. And at this point, I don’t care about their small company excuse anymore.

It's funny how they put those lineart for reference in the eye and some tech details. Yet they don't show where did they get the idea or reference for those neck pistons.

And you get to test your... ..too for exclusive items ...for months.

Next Lego Creator product.

That's the problem with NY with this order. They don't offer the store credit as an option initially. They will offer it the moment you keep on bugging them about your undelivered order. So I doubt they will just sent emails to everyone stating 'we're having hard time to get more stocks so we're just going to give you store credit on your next purchase'.

Let's Google Translate it. Shall we? http://arcadia.ac/premiumfinish/ "Premium Finish" product which began selling limitedly at Arcadia Online Shop since 2017. This line-up started with "Perfect Transform VF-1S Strike Valkyrie (Premium Finish)" which was released in the same year, but in the regular version it is the marking by sticker sticking, in the Premium Finish version the tampon printing We expanded it with a special specially designed. And in "Perfect Transformation SDF-1 MACROSS Premium Finish" released in April 2018, we added additional elements such as black ink and light accumulation and pushed it almost to the limit of the mass production completed product which should be the flagship of our product Realize quality. I got a lot of pleasure from customers. Although it is such a "Premium Finish" product, we are still planning various product developments from now on, so we are progressing to deliver further excitement and excitement to our customers. So I would like to introduce product information again from this special page to "VF - 0S Phoenix Premium Finish" starting with "Premium Finish Ichijyo boarding machine" and currently the latest "VF - 0S Phoenix Premium Finish". In addition, as we introduce Arcadia's perfectly deformed Macross item, there is comment in Q & A format from "Mister K" in charge of development, so please read this first. Q: What are you having trouble with in the process of planning / what is troublesome? A: The most troublesome part is to do frankly! It is detailed in the "Tampo printing part" which is not applied in the regular version, in concrete terms, the tempo is not misaligned? Is not it distorted? Are they peeling off during the manufacturing process? Etc. VF - 0 S is really confusing because we do 101 places to confirm · · · (Oh, I'm checking the robustness of the movements and joints properly) Q: To Customers who have purchased Macross products from Arcadia A: I think that I will struggle variously because the item of ours is expensive as I explained in the previous blog, but basically "Premium Finish" is a special edition limited to our mail order, so do not book We do not get to ... As for the price, while staring at with estimates and trial charts, We will make efforts so that we can put it in a price that you can purchase even a little, so Congo Tomo Yoroshiku · · · Q: Are you committed to product specifications? A: There is no particular preference to say this if viewed in breadth. Well, I just did it because I think it's cool. However, although I am issuing a normal version before releasing "PF", I am adjusting, refurbishing, etc. with "PF" based on customer comments received in that normal version. There are things that I do not notice for me who is in the inner ring so far, so it seems that things that are being accumulated while studying variously have become "commitment" as a result. It will be connected to the future in the future ~ is not it ~. It is truly appreciated! From here we will post comments from engineers responsible who are working hard day and night at the factory in China! Q: Why are you struggling / what are you careful about? A: Hello, I am a person in charge of the engineer who is doing information sharing and checking etc. between Mr. K. and in the field. In terms of producing "Premium Finish" items, it is tough or careful points, so what we think is simply the following part. ◆ Points to remember · I will not stop focusing! · It takes time simply! ◆ Points being carefully • Unity of color intensity! (In the case of SDF-1) · Be careful not to misplace the tampon anyway! Regarding "a serious point", as Mr. Mister K explained, it is necessary to check whether there are mistakes in all parts of the tampon printing. Although it is not the whole amount inspection, it is a difficult part to work for a long time and maintain concentration. Regarding "Points to be careful about", as described in the "SDF-1 MACROSS Premium Finish Shipment Immediate Report" the other day, because the luminescent paint mixes the solvent and the powdered phosphorescent material, it is gradually pulverized by gravity It precipitates. Therefore, it is difficult to unify the color taste from the usual paint. However, as much as possible, we carefully wish that there is no significant difference depending on individuals. It is literally meaningless in regard to "to pay attention to misalignment in tampon printing". From the next page I will introduce "Premium Finish" products released so far with images. We will also post comparison images with the regular version so please do not miss it!

Oh. The Popbox Hikaru DYRL figure. Yeah, I hope some company will make a better one soon. I find mine too tall with the rest of my 1/6th scale figure. But I really like the helmet and the suit. And got it on bargain too from Robotech Store before.
