Nice. Can't wait to see them in formation on a yeti stand. -
What shipping method did you choose? I used EMS and NY sent mine out late Monday night Japan time.

I'm not seeing the rainbow tint on your VF-11. Did the picture not pick it up or were there some produced without it? -
No waiting for me. Must. Have. Now.

I'm always impressed with cell shaded figures. Logically my mind knows that it is a 3D figure by my mind keeps seeing it as a 2D screen capture. Would really like to see the finished product.

Good choice! I went ahead and got them both since I am a sucker for Guyver figs but the purple one is much more visually appealing. They also went with a more refined swappable chest like Guyver III so I think you'll like the figure. -

I'm eagerly awaiting that one as well. Really hoping they also give us a Guyver 0. Lisker Guyver II is actually more than a re-color though. Besides the head difference he has a larger body since he is older than Sho. And while very close almost everything is different on the armor like the chest hoses, ab plates, calves, etc... As long as they get it right, like they have been doing, I'm willing to wait (hopefully not as long as between Guyver I and Guyver II F). -
Those pics are pretty awesome. I love seeing people having fun with their collections like this.

Yes, it is still open and they said they are trying to fill it. My problem is that these things can sell out fast. If I sit around waiting for them to fill it I may miss out altogether (or have to pay inflated ebay prices). I just would have preferred that they let me know the situation up front so that I would know what is going on and decide how to address it ASAP. It's a minor irritation, but an irritation none the less. -

Seeing multiple people receive their Guyver III from HLJ prompted me to contact them to see why they hadn't charged me yet. Apparently they received a lot less than they expected and won't be able to fill their orders. They said they filled the orders in chronological order. So even though I pre-ordered on 1/6 I was still too late to the party. Wish they would have let me know without me having to follow up with them. Thankfully I was able to find a shop in the US with a reasonable price and free shipping. In the end I probably paid less so it worked out. If you haven't received your payment request better find one somewhere else while you can. -

Nice box you got there. The RS Kshatriya is one of my favorite toys. If I had to pick only one RS it would be that one easily. Have fun with the funnels. -
Where's my premium finish pre-order ? Or even a date for the pre-order? I am am not amused with Arcadia's penchant for toying with my emotions.

Of course there's no way to tell for sure without seeing it in action but from what I can tell there is at least the potential for some good articulation. The ankles have a side to side pivot joint without anything in the way to hinder movement. I cant tell what kind of joint is used for front to back and it does seem like the front may be restricted by the armor but the back isn't. The knees appear to be free and clear and may be able to do a complete bend as long as the fabric allows it. The hips also appear to be free of any obstructions. My only concern would be the side armor that connects at the waist and knee restricting movement. The elbows seem to be on a double joint. I doubt that they will be able to do a 180 bend but more than 90 should be doable. The shoulders also have lots of room for movement. My assumption would be that the waist and chest won't have any or very little movement to be able to support everything attached to it. If the articulation lives up to the potential I see I think that it is going to be able to get into some very dynamic poses.

Such a gorgeous machine. I really want to be able to display it in some action poses (leaping around, blasting enemies mid-air, etc...) and I'm pretty sure that display arm would fail at that. If it does, hopefully Yeti can come to the rescue. Something this nice deserves to be displayed in something more than a boring standing pose.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Boobytrap replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Thanks for pointing that out. I always try to buy official products so I hadn't even considered the KO. But if the price between the two is pretty much the same it would be hard to choose the official. Also, with Noel indicating that the KO color is a closer match (they look the same in the pictures though) that's another point for the KO. I just know that the KO 00 would be forever in a box somewhere as I don't have the real estate to display two 00's and I can't get past my OCD to sell off parts of a toy I don't use.- 6025 replies

I'm curious about this too. I was planning to pick up an 0 Raiser if they look good together.- 6025 replies

This will probably be my first and only premium purchase. I won't be getting them for the VF-1's as they wouldn't match any of the Yamato's in my collection. No issue with that here. As long as it is $500 or less I'll order it with no hesitation. More than that... and I'll order it with some hesitation.

Gundam Figure Thread - Newtype GN-002
Boobytrap replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Thanks for the link - that was helpful. So since it seems that GFFMC doesn't have as much metal I'm assuming it doesn't have the same heft. Based on that assumption how stable are GFFMC when posed without the stand? One of the things that is drawing me to purchase more Metal Builds is that the low body weight from the metal makes them very stable, even in highly dynamic poses.- 6025 replies

Boobytrap replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
What is the difference between GFFMC and Metal Build? I've only recently received my first Metal Build, with a couple more on the way. I've also considered adding a Unicorn and now this Wing 0 but only if they are of similar build quality to Metal Build.- 6025 replies

Nice pics. Looking at them helps to pass the time until I get mine. -
Nice paint scheme. Definitely adds some visual interest to it.

Also save $10 when you buy 1 or more. Talk about savings! Its practically a steal. I'll leave it to you to determine who's the one doing the stealing.
