Nice! ;)

But why Bandai? Why not use the traditional Setsuna MB Gundam Boxes design to make it consistent? :huh:

What's the plastic quality on those gundam kits?

The one Anubis posted is Metal Build and not regular Gunpla kits. Metal Build are already built. Plastic used on the Metal Build ones are thicker ABS plastics with Diecast Metal for the inner frame.

So I pre-ordered this march 1st, 2016. 16 and a half months later I've finally got her. I've got one of every character in the line now, although there's a couple specific figures I need before I feel like I've got a complete set. still nice to have though.

Nice. You gotta snap some pics of that Nerv Eva-Godzilla. That thing looks so frickin' cool.

The SS/G isn't piloted by Setsuna, right? Or at all, really, if I remember correctly. It was simulation data, same as the Full Saber Quanta, from whatever that side story was. 00V, I think.

SICK!!! looks awesome mate! 

Good to see a 1:18 car back in the thread! :good:

Thanks man! I remember now you were the one that mentioned Otto cars don't have any opening doors or anything and I wish it had that or  at least wheels that can be turned to different angles but otherwise, the detail is fantastic from the exterior to the interior. The closeup pictures I took bring out a lot of flaws but I never noticed anything but beauty in my hands. It's super solid, like a chunk of mostly metal. I'm really glad I got my hands on this one for sure.

Shiryu is what i was the most excited to get in that package. I'll mess with it later on today and snap some pics. 

I have no clue whats the story with the 7S, never really got into the MSV stories of 00. All I know is I like the designs and I really want a Metal Build Astrea Type F :wub:

Nice 1/18 car.  The only 1/18 car I'm still considering getting is another 1/18 Knight Rider for $50 shipped that I can easily convert into first appearance KARR.

I should be getting MS Colossus and ML Archangel today!

Thanks! I haven't got any "fantasy" 1/18 cars yet and I'm kinda glad. Would be yet another line of things I have no money or space for, lol!

Glad to see people getting the Nerv Anti-G. Mine should arrive someday and I'm highly anticipating it. Should go nicely with my SHMA and NECA Monsters. My Walkure SHF figures are also packed together on the way to me with 1:60 Hikaru 1S and some other goodies too. Now that I think about it, I have several other packages from all over on the way to me.

Also just got some MLs including Dark Phoenix/Cyclops, Jackal to complete my Sandman BAF and SDCC Commander Gree.

Also got a digital copy of Irregular at Magic School: Out of Order since the physical was out of stock. This is also my last purchase for a while since GW is preparing to assault my wallet with new model releases.

Yeah I saw the listings for Commander Gree and ML A-Force but I passed.  I need to stay focused.  I plan on getting the Deadpool wave and X-Men wave for sure.  The 12" Wolverine looks cool but it needs to be super discounted.

I haven't bought any of the 12" MLs yet but they all seem to go on discount. I want Spidey, Deadpool and Wolverine but don't think they are worth more than $25.

I just checked and it was. Setsuna piloted the 7S/G in the 00V chapter. The Full Saber Quan[T] however are run with Veda's simulation test. So far, seeing it has different box design kinda threw me off. Hehehe. :lol:

Hear! Hear! Hope they make that teased Metal Build Astraea soon. And hope it's the white one first. ^_^

 

Anyways, great catch everyone! ;)

Now now. I only wanted to have a regular white Metal Build Setsuna Box. Is that too much to ask? ^_^

You know, kind of like when you joined them together it will form a one-of-a-kind cool looking art. Just like this one. :rolleyes:

That's a cool figure, Anubis. ;)  It feels like it came out from Zone of the Enders video game. ^_^

That's because it was designed by Yoji Shinkawa. He really likes that head shape; he started using it with ZoE and has been putting it into his mecha designs since. Metal Gear Ray has a similar head, and his original design for Frame Arms, the Byakko, also shares that look: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10465646

Looks great. I dig wagons; they're such sleepers.

Thanks! And yup, exactly! Nothing like being able to take the whole family on a trip just about anywhere, and being able to wipe the floor off just about any other car in the road on a stretch or a winding road in the snow :)
