    Gotta do a VF-1 first, because it gets the recognition; and it gives people a stand-alone figure, rather than one that needs to go with the rest of the line.

    Well, that certainly explains why the parking is so bad at my condo complex, despite everyone having 2-car garages. I keep mine in the walk-in closet, personally.

    Easiest method is probably an airbrush and some stencils/templates so you can be consistent. Could even cut the templates on a CNC, or print them up with a 3D printer.

    Where at? Didn't see it pop up at HLJ yet. [edit] Found it at Hobby Search, with some runner images!

    My question is how good the articulation is going to be, and how stiff those leg joints are. Though I suppose it won't be too hard to mod them in all likelihood.

    Using the 20% off one earlier for an order including an Arcadia PF YF-19 and SV-51 was even more effective. 🤑

    Well, just used the HLJ 10%off Black Friday code and pre-ordered 101-150. I’m in for the duration, going to try not to think of how much I’ve spent on it every time I see the finished product.

    Fwiw, I just took a shot at designing my own display cabinet (polycarbonate). 36” wide, 18” deep, and two 24” tall levels. For displaying a couple of large lego sets. Estimated cost is in the $600-$800 range.

    Their Ingram unit is nice, if they make a non%transforming vf-1 it could be pretty good. But if they instead make Zentradi units or desdroids, I am totally down.

    Kiki loose joint fixer ought to work.

    Which ones are you spraying to buy? SDFM and DYRL aren’t worldwide yet.

    Try setting sort by "newest", that sorts the VF-1 issues from #100 to #1 in order. Also sorts Mazinger in order, going down from #100.

    USA GUndam Store pretty much always has a 10% discount code available if you look around.

    ...I'm already like $1800 into the VF-1, may as well add the strike parts.

    They sell all the other premium Bandai figures. Now that the Macross licensing has been worked out for non-SDFM/DYRL stuff it makes sense that the usual US stores would carry it.

    I’m betting next release will see more overseas sales. A lot of us ordered from Japan before the US options were available, before there was pricing even. Plus the US scalpers haven’t noticed Macross yet, while the Asian scalpers have.

    If you check the pictures on the tamashii event website, the 0S states that it’s a Japan only item, while the -25 does not. I’m guessing it’s probably because the 0S is a “Roy” machine, and Roy is part of SDFM and thus HG has some of the international rights per the agreement. So they’d need to get HG approval, and likely pay HG a licensing fee outside of Japan.

    Usually for Bandai products the actual release day is announced at the start of the release month, and until that’s announced the retailers just list the last day of the month.

    No problem, had the same issue last night. Fortunately my web-listener spotted it showing up at USAGS.

    Unit 0 is up for $300 at USAGundamStore, in case anyone still needed it. https://www.usagundamstore.com/collections/new/products/bandai-metal-build-evangelion-eva-00-figure

    In many cases because we're too busy checking out before we get cart-jacked to make a post.

    Went up on Anime Export, but out of stock now. Managed to grab one... I really hate daylight savings time, was almost 20min late to the pre-order.

    $141 in 2011 would be approx $173 today, vs the current price of $192. It's a bit of an increase, but not going to complain if they're using better plastic this time. Especially with how FUBAR'd supply chains are at the moment.

    Note that all the HMR stuff is listed as domestic Japanese release only, whereas the DX sets are not. Yes, even the VF-0s (probably because Roy). We can hope that Bandai and HG work something out, but probably still going to be cheaper to buy from a Japanese retailer.

    They probably mirrored the image.
