I have both the 31JKai and DXYF-19. The Kai is just a repaint of the 31j, with four reaction missiles included. The YF-19 is a slightly reworked 19Advance, with a lot of different ordinances plus the fold booster pack. The 31Kai was shown only in one episode of Delta, and was not shown in the Movie. The 19 is of course the main hero valk in Plus. Between the two, disregarding the toys' engineering, the obvious choice for me is the 19.

Got my YF-19 from Amiami yesterday! Did a quick check, and my copy's antenna is unbroken. Woot! Haven't had time to check anything else though. Will check the tail fins to see if their mounting points are misaligned. +1 on Bandai making a DX YF-21 to go along with this.

GX-86 now available for pre-order at HLJ: https://hlj.com/chogokin-damashii-gx-86-space-battleship-yamato-2202-bans55265 Even though I have the 2199 version, I couldn't resist double dipping for the 2202 version. I'm intrigued by those remote controlled turrets .

Wow, didn't know there was such demand for a Fokker-type Gundam.

I hope this is a sign of more UC era Metal Builds to come. I would like a Metal Build Double Zeta based on the MG Ver. Ka, but I could settle for a Mk II if they are only doing non-tranformables.

Anybody get a payment notification from Amiami yet? My lone pre-order for the DX YF-19 is with them, and I'm getting worried that they haven't asked for payment yet, considering this will be released in a couple of days.

If my Nihongo serves me right, the disclaimer says something to the effect of: "items pictured that are not part of the Iron Man Mark 50 Nano Weapons Set (Avengers Infinity War) are sold separately". Take note that the disclaimer is only made in the pics where parts are mixed and matched with the Iron Man Mark 50 first release. The pics where the Mark 50 is shown wearing the backpack, double swords, and modified leg armors does not show the disclaimer. Also, there are no pics showing the nano parts detached, which Bandai normally shows for products that are meant to supplement a separate product. Finally, a quick translation by Google on the Tamashii product page of the contents of the package says as follows:  Main product content  · Iron Man Mark 50 body (wing, both hands, both feet are attached with weapons)  · Complete set Hence, it's my reasonable assumption that the Nano-weapons set DOES come with another Mark 50, except with different lower legs, thus the asking price. For the price, I also would have liked to for Bandai to have included more of the nano weapons shown in the movie (i.e. the shield, battering rams, repulsor beam amplifying funnels, and other variations of the nano swords), just like the Hot Toys version, instead of paying for another Mark 50 figure. I'm thinking that Bandai is probably considering releasing a third variant of the Mark 50, packaged with the other nano weapons, just to...you know...make more money?

Looks like the Nano weapon Set has a separate Mk 50 with different lower legs, hence the high price. Great way for Bandai to reuse the mold somewhat, and make an additional profit by selling it with the weapons set. That hasn't stopped me from pre-ordering it though.

Are they re-issuing the Renewal Messiahs? How come Alto's DX VF-25F is on display along with the DX YF-19? https://twitter.com/T_KOTEN_Q/status/1038599921073410049

Saw the movie. Overall, it was....meh. Storywise, the Frontier Movies were superior. Action was okay (better than the TV series overall), and the footage of the Armored Siegfrieds is some good, although familiar, eye-candy. (Can't shake the feeling that they've re-purposed some animation from Ozma's Armored Messiah). I hope they make an announcement for the armored parts soon!

While I enjoy this toy collecting hobby immensely, I'm saddened by the blatant profiteering involved in it. I feel sorry for those who were not able to get toys like these at close to retail price. Capitalism at its worst.

Oh well. At least I got one order in with HLJ. It would have been a nice bonus to get it for JPY17,920, but I'm satisfied with what I've got. Good luck to the rest! Have a blessed day everyone! Signing out.
