  1. Would be nice if we can finally order exclusives delivered direct, without needing to go through proxies or grey-market sellers like NY.
  2. Mix some phosphorescent powder into transparent paint? Looks like the powder's not that expensive. [edit] This place sells a bunch of colors 0.5oz for $6. https://www.technoglowproducts.com/glow-in-the-dark-powder/
  3. Paint some phosphorescent stuff inside?
  4. Order stop again.
  5. I'm guessing this is the second wave without the extra flight stand?
  6. Oh well that's good then, 6,000yen is a bit easier to swallow.
  7. I'd ask why this is ~50% more expensive than the others, but cat ears, bigger boobs, and VF-31A... Reported MSRP is Y7,400 before tax: http://www.taghobby.com/archives/306521
  8. You could just buy a HMR VF-1A Super for what the original super parts sets cost.
  9. I'm wondering as well, that was the first thing I've heard about it that wasn't positive.
  10. I tried one of the pods using the hi-def Acrylate, wouldn't recommend it due to massive printlines. I haven't tried the "Professional Plastic", so I can put it as an option if you want to give it a shot.
  11. Here's the google translate of the article: I suspect 1.0 was original, 1.1 was 35th anniversary, and 1.2 is the catgirl?
  12. I picked up an Arcadia VF-1J Milia for Y13,080, on sale. Cost another Y5,000 for EMS though.
  13. Looks like they're re-releasing the first version with some improvements: http://www.taghobby.com/archives/306145
  14. There is, it used to be the HP plastic, but now it's called "Professional Plastic". I think it's an option on the dropdown for the gunpod clip, if not I'll add it tonight.
  15. You take that back. Plus and Frontier were great. Also Zero had awesome eye-candy.
  16. If you want a cheap Hi-Metal R to see how much you like them, the VF-1S Messer is relatively inexpensive if you look around. https://order.mandarake.co.jp/order/detailPage/item?itemCode=1076181053&ref=list Probably end up around $75 shipped if you select SAL shipping.
  17. Odd, for some reason that post didn't show up when I checked to see if it had been posted. I did check.
  18. That's the same pair I picked up. Got the 101 on a VF-1J Hikaru, and still looking for a VF-1A CF for the 102F. Or I'll just throw it on Messer.
  19. FYI, Good Smile has announced that these will be delayed into September. http://www.goodsmile.info/en/post/4756/Release+Dates+and+Changes+for+August+2018+Products+Scale+Figure+Delay+Apology.html
  20. I hate HG with a burning passion, but this would sway me. Dan Abnet does great work.
  21. Eh, I'm a fan of the jesta and went in for both. Mainly for the backpack and the tripod cannon.
  22. If what you're looking for is available on your country's P-Bandai sight, that is. The US one only ever had 1 thing I wanted: the metal Composite Wing Zero. Hopefully the re-launch expands the selection. I ended up going through a couple different proxy sights, ZenMarket and FromJapan. Had to pay up front though, oof.
  23. Bandai's apparently cracked down on grey market sellers of their Metal Build stuff, last 2 P-Bandai Metal builds were instantly sold out at NY. VF-31A may have been a similar issue.
