The plastic on the Bandai seems to be "softer", easier to sand. At first, I thought the old Bandai kit would be simple, easy to build, but it was actually a pain in the dick as well. Decal sheet for the Bandai Super Decal sheet for the Hasegawa In order to save time and headache in the build process, I chopped the hell out of the model. Figure I don't need these parts to move so I'll just glue all the sub assemblies together, sand the seam lines, paint and assemble. Should be easier than glue, sand, paint, glue, sand, mask, paint, glue, sand, mask, paint and so and and so forth.

I finally finished off the Hasegawa 1/72 VF-1S Strike Valk I started 17 years ago. Also built three more Valks right after. Started a thread about it here: Anyway, after building 4 Hasegawa kits (plus weapons kits), I decided to slap together a Bandai 1/72 Super Valkyries kit I stole a 1A head from. Long story short, I needed to build one Strike 1S and three Super 1A but I didn't have enough 1A heads so I got one from the Bandai kit. I had a few spare weapons, pilots and decals from the previous builds so I'll try to spruce up this old kit. Be gentle guys, I don't know what I'm doing.  Since I already built a Hasegawa Roy, I decided to turn this one into a brownie.

Hope so.

I saw that, wtf? Limit to 20 per person??? Even thought you can't add anything to cart? Their website blows at the best of times, it totally died last night at the crucial moment.

Good morning gentlemen, who is still up from last night? What a $hit show, my first pre-order experience and it was a total cluster fuk, lol! Not even sure why I bothered. I feel like I just woke up with the worst hangover only to roll over and see a fat ugly girl laying next to me. Guess I'll have to pay a scalper, or hope I'm in Japan at the right time in November (I left Japan literally the day before Hikaru's release). Someone posted this on FB yesterday about the pre-order, thought it was funny: "Misa, I can't be with you tonight, I'll be pre-ordering sempai's....."
