Thanks...bought another one....just in case...

[Radioguy]

Now where can one buy the official gloves? 😄

[Shawn]

Its being delivered now, so soon we'll have SOMEONE open the freaking box so we can look inside
Resellers are just posting the cardboard box right now. 

 

they just MOCK me!

[jenius]

That's a good price.

[Shawn]

[Radioguy]

I'm surprised there isn't a slipcase.

That's a nice lookin' box. Hope I get mine soon. At least a shipping notification

[ZYZY]

Anyone got news from yoyaku to ship yet?

[grogall]

@tekering Is running to the Tamaschii store right now, to get us some more picks! 🤪

[tekering]

Sorry, I've long since run out of space for displaying non-canon schemes.  I'm giving this one a pass.

In fact, I haven't even figured out where my DX VT-1's gonna go, much less Fugu's FG-01 Jetfire...  They're just cluttering up my photo studio at present. 😐

I  did not expect the cavity fillers to be transparent for some reason, but that makes sense.

 

[Shawn]

So next I'm waiting for someone to put the Clear Mechanics Edition Fast packs on it

The Iron Type made me just noticed that the Heppoko's DX seems to be missing the usual UN Spacy Kite logo and stuff.

Wonder if it comes with sticker/decal sheet...

you going to open it or keep it MISB?

[Shawn]

Oh thats not mine, I was just searching for one online to see the box

I still don't get why they don't have a normal painted pilot.

It's kinda a stealth plane, so why not a stealth uniform?

[Radioguy]

It's weird they chose to make it UV/Blacklight reactive (Just like the covers on the Fugu Jetfire Arcadia KO).

No one will expose a collectible this expensive with that, so ZERO point to this.

[MKT]

No tampo printing at all? 0? Is it really made by Bandai? 

[Chronocidal]

I mean, they printed the stripes, if those count?

It's.. interesting to look at, I'll give it that.  Definitely not something I'm going to try and pick up though, so I'm happy to decrease the demand a little.  

Hope all of those coated bits are done with a heavy enough coat to not rub off in a stiff breeze.

[no3Ljm]

Hope they just did like the Iron Type. Just the kite logo, UNSpacy and nothing else.

Kinda weird the pilot-figure included is DYRL-style instead of TV-style:

Its the Stonewell-Bellcom Matrix

I love the clear parts and final product looks good to me. It would be cool if they did a matching GBP but also annoying since I skipped this release and that would make me want it a bit more.

Clear and mirrored Strike parts would be amazing.

Thanks! I'm getting a weird loop on the "check you are not robot" part in my phone. I will try on the PC 

Thought were already sold out there.
