Anyone have side by side photos of the MB Crossbone x3 and the MB Crossbone patchwork ? Im trying to see if the colors are the same or slightly different and its hard to tell due to lighting in youtube videos. Trying to figure out if its worth buying the patchwork now that its down to $200 ish -
You’re giving the greedy sleezebags at Bandai too much credit. This is going to be a full release , then they will re release the other GN Arms with a slight color change and then maybe they will just sell the conversion parts by themselves
-
At this point in time id say that is a conjecture. You see the classic dual barrel design and you can see parts of the Dynames Armor panel. Also , knowing how lazy & greedy bandai get , it would make sense for them to re hash the same product with minor changes.

Kuramatoys/DenDen Hobby have poor shipping practices just in case anyone is thinking about ordering from them. They prices are generally higher than most so thats normal for them.

$360 + tax = shipping ?!?!?! Ouch

The missile pods are usually magnetic and click onto the shoulder shield thing.

*thinks about recent Crossbone and DeathScythe releases*

Kampfer also made a few appearances in the Yu Gi Oh of the gundam franchise, Gundam Build Fighters. It even smokes Gundam Legend in the Build Arena . Ill probably pick one of these up as well GM Sniper vs Kampfer

I wouldnt be surprised if we get a Metal Build Hi Nu version in this color soon as well

Someone at Bandai is dropping the ball. First it was a struggle for most people to Get the new Freedom Concept Spark Sprinkle or whatever , then they hyped the MS Nu Re issue with no actual pre order info and then they jack the price on Providence.... Now they posted those addition photos , its cool .... not $350 + kind of cool tho

I stand corrected, its capable of two poses. $320 is just them charging us the nostalgia tax with this one.

So is this a countdown til pre order or count down til further information? I dont think Ill get this giant brick because you really cant pose it but im curious to see what the cost on this will be.
-
That was me , I bought 2 of them and I brought it up at some point in the comments and never got a reply. Then i totally forgot about it until now. I still have that second set just sitting a closet somewhere

For those of you that bought Hi Nu and only wanted the shield without buying the bazooka , here you go https://gundamit.com/hm-model-lightning-shield-for-rx-93-2-hi-gundam_p3372.html

I really wish they would have sold the Fan Racer separately. I really like the VF-1D but not enough to buy one now that its 350+ since I missed the boat on it. Is this the Mechanic Edition or whatever it is? Whats the story with this? Im not versed in Macross enough to know why its limited edition.

Across the board the MB line has had more issues now than just regular joint issues in the past. I was pretty pissed when my Trans Am Raiser came in with paint defects and knubs. It was like i paid $400 for a KO or something. There has also been fitment issues with the spare hands , shoulders and some of the gimmicks on some of the MBs get stuck and dont move slowly. Justice was was brittle AF and the shoulder joint break or pop out of please easily too.

Ok so they have just ignored me all together now. FYI to anyone thinking about shopping with them. I already bought another set on ebay. I just dont want these parts to get stupid expensive in 6 months like the MS Fin Funnels The first Amatsu Mina released in like 2015 was the one with joint issues. The Princess of the Sky ver wasnt bad. Bandais QC in general (Post Covid) has gone to s*** while the prices continue to go up. Luckily the two you are looking at are generally ok despite the above issue with the dragonics. Just buy them and dont look back

I just double checked my Strike Noir to be sure but the Regular strike, Strike Rouge and STrike Noir share the same rear mount so it should work. I also have some of those MC KOs from ShowZ and Gundamit. It all comes down to how OCD you are because the quality is ok if you stand more than 24in away. Any closer and youll see the nubs , the blemishes , the uneven paint and the finger prints of whoever assembled it.

No outer box. It was just Bandai transport box. I have been too unmotivated to open it. I contacted customer care and they didnt seem to care. Lesson learned but Ill probably sell the parts (without a box) in the marketplace soon.

Standard thin bubble wrap that most sellers use
-
Remind me to never use DenDenHobby/Kurama Toys ever again. They shipped my Rewlula parts in 3 layers of bubble wrap and that’s it. This was the result
