  1. I know exactly what you're going through. All my stuff is sitting in piles of boxes right now for lack of space to even build anything. Finally was able to buy a condo, but haven't moved in yet.
  2. Interesting, though next time I've learned my lesson, waiting to get those until there's a "free shipping" promotion somewhere.
  3. Nice work, loving the details.
  4. Well, apart from Arad, there were two other versions shown in the movie: Chuck, and VF-31a (cannon fodder) versions. It'd be down for at least 1 copy of each.
  5. HMR VF-25, VF-0, and YF/VF-19 would be instant buys for me.
  6. There we go, was wondering how long that one would take them. I suppose I'm in, may as well have it to go with the PBandai RG Tallgeese II, and the plated RG Tallgeese.
  7. @Xigfrid has a bunch of 3D printed ordinance in his shapeways shop that'll fit on the DX hardpoints. There's also some knock-offs you can find on ebay of the missiles that came with the VF-171 armor pack.
  8. There's been talk of everything from a TV SDF-1 to a new YF-21, but nothing concrete.
  9. Yeah, there's a premium finish VF-0D on the release list for later this year.
  10. There's a couple other issues as well. Metal parts add weight, which means even more metal is needed, and joints have to handle more weight. Also the metal parts need to be painted/coated, and that paint tends to be less durable and prone to flaking off.
  11. I think Tenso and FromJapan let you change declared values as well.
  12. The bits are so sharp by the time it got to me the knees and a few other bits had poked holes in their respective covers. Thankfully the tray and plastic cover are well fit to the figure.
  13. Looked up an unboxing video, dumpted out the tray, and finally found the head. D'oh
  14. It's a lovely figure, very well made and with good crisp paint apps. Just wish mine hadn't shown up missing the head. Apparently I am blind, finally found the head after pulling everything out of the tray.
  15. They might do a re-issue when the GBP hits?
  16. Right, that's why I'm either going with Amazon Japan or CDJ at this point. Though with Amazon Japan I'll be out international shipping if anything goes belly up.
  17. Amazon Japan just dropped their price again, down to 12% off (ï¿¥35,038). Which puts it in the same approximate range as NY or CDJ when using a Tenso shipping address and forwarding.
  18. Honestly, it's a bit odd since they're using split pins. Even if they expand, they don't necessarily have to change diameter since they're hollow and have a break in the circumference.
  19. Looks great, big fan of the Shinden (canard/pusher) aesthetic in general.
  20. I got my P-Bandai Neo Zeong (Narrative Version) in yesterday. I had not fully comprehended the sheer size of it before this. I could use the back "skirt" as a small shield...
  21. So, I told GK Gundam Kit about the missing head on my Steel Legend Kshatriya about a week and a half ago, heard back they're looking into getting me a head for it, about a week and a half ago. Poked them again, but no response yet. I'm really hoping I don't have to do a chargeback.
  22. I've got 2150, but they don't start expiring until 6/14. Makes it a tougher choice.
  23. When counting the 3% points and bonus points, comes out just a smidge cheaper than NY shipped to the US. So probably going with CDJ for this one, unless Amazon Japan starts allowing shipping to the US on it.
  24. I do know 0.5mm drills exist: https://www.amazon.com/Versatile-Tungsten-Japanese-Installation-Woodworking/dp/B01MR7746O https://www.amazon.com/Carbide-Micro-Drill-0-5mm-Dremel/dp/B00C7PJBU6
  25. I have no clue where I'm going to put this thing until I move.
