    That's the Amatsu Mina Gold Astray Frame (Originally in Black). The picture is turned on it side to make it appear to be in flight. There is a White version now available for pre-order as well: Amatsu Mina Hana Gold Astray Frame.

    I would personally keep trying to purchase all issues through HLJ.com. Even if you don't get all the current issues say 'Order Stop' they will end up with extras after a week or two. I even purchased two extra issue ones to try my hand at polishing out the plastic line on the canopy. At $2.75 a piece, why not?

    Unless Harmony Gold is written on the box and they get a cut it will never be released.

    So purdy! Man.. I wish I had the courage to weather a $300 toy...

    Not dissing your display! It's nice! I wanted to purchase that diffuser myself so the LED strips would look more like a light stripe than dots.

    Ahh! Awesome! That LED diffuser doesn’t work as well as I thought it would.

    Thanks! What exactly is wrong with it? I'm really enjoying the build so far and love how most of it is diecast so far. It's a heavy beast! I wonder what the total weight will be once complete.

    The HiRM Gundam Wing EW with angel wings was garbage like the Barbatos before it but I don't seem to have any issues with the Gundam Wing EW with the solid white/blue/red wings. I think Bandai finally got their act together on this and the Red Astray thereafter.

    Looking good!

    Is that a BESTA Ikea shelf? How does your display look with the glass doors closed?

    FYI Play-Asia canceled my VF-31E Chuck pre-order about a month before release.
  12. Grey728
    I'll take you up on that offer!

    Crap. I wasn't subbed to this thread and missed the PO. Oh well.

    I still see stock available at various websites in Japan and Hong Kong. Looks like no issue in ordering for those who really want one.

    Amazing work. Love that image of the Strike vs Aegis and the pilot looks great too. You even painted the boot detail at/near base of the foot.

    I hate it... Pre-ordered one anyways. What the heck is wrong with me?
  17. Grey728
    Brilliant. I LOL'd in a work Skype meeting I was pretending to participate in.

    Thanks guys!

    Thanks @spacemanoeuvres! I appreaciate these links. Does AmiAmi have a good reputation for helping customers out with SV-51 Leg issue? I'm tempted to pull the trigger but don't want to get screwed obviously.

    I want to be excited for the Amatsu Hana.. but for some reason I'm not and I can't pinpoint why.. On paper I love it and can't wait. But after seeing the promo vid and pics.. meh? I'm getting a 'clown' kinda vibe from it. Like Ronald McDonald.
  21. Grey728
    Wow. That pic took a lot of Red Astray Metal builds to pull off. Or do you happen to have a lot of tiger claw expansion kits at your disposal?

    I don't get it.. how can he be selling it so cheap? Aren't normal motorcycle helmets upwards of $300+? Is he really offering a full helmet here? is it for a child or something?

    Thanks for the info. I'm talking about spray can Mr.Hobby type gloss coat that tends to lay unevenly on the plastic. I would like to polish that but I don't know what that would do to the panel lines or the decals directly underneath. Would I really have to put that much elbow grease into polishing a layer or two of glossy top coat? I really appreciate the Novus #2 recommendation. I'll have to try that out on bare plastic. I was thinking of reviving some of my old Yamato 1/65 Valkyries where the duster I used over the years ended up leaving a bunch of micro-scratches on the plastic.

    I'm curious. How would polishing look on an unpainted gundam kit with a gloss coat finish? Would it remove the 'spray on' look to it? Maybe make the 'paint' look like a cherry finish? I'm also curious to know if this would be something I could use on a Soul of Chogokin where the glossy plastic has gotten a little scratched over the years. Could this breath new life into it?

    I LOVE this laser image. Hilarious!
