    On first look it does look strange but I think it is the photos and the white all melding together. Something that most Strike figures have had the problem with had been the side skirts because they have to be a bit oversized to accommodate the armor schneiders. IMO the legs and feet are comparible to the Astrays

    eggy99 replied to seti88's topic in Toys

    Definitely buying this because my Arcadia has a busted wing.

    Sad that it is coming to an end. Will be a sorely missed resource.

    Yep I’d be up for the normal Astraea.

    Not another web exclusive.... ah well. Not a fan of Astraea Type F. Bit too red for my taste.

    Ooooh. Didn’t realise MC 00 Raiser trans-am version was out yet. Tempting, but I have no spare cash for it.

    The screw covers are nice addition.

    The yellow parts look to be all gold chrome now. Hard to tell if anything else is changed. The misaligned right shoulder really irks me. Haha. Do we really need another Exia? I have Exia, R1 Repair, and trans am versions and that is enough for me.

    A word of warning that I checked my currency conversion options on my Paypal again this week, and it had reverted back to Paypal conversion rate, so I promptly closed the merchant agreement with HLJ and will do all my payments manually now. I doubt Paypal will ever fix this as it is as everyone suspects. It's a NEW feature that Paypal has instituted to skim money off the top of all their users and claim ignorance of the issue.

    F360 already revealed it was Endless Waltz Wing Zero. XD You can see the feathered wings, shoulder detail and V fin clearly. Bandai ain't fooling anyone with that darkened image. haha I'm interested in that Meer Campbell. Woooo!

    Bandai DX VF-31

    eggy99 replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    That seems like the standard practice for NY on Bandai premium items now. Promise a great price up front then charge you more at ship time. Any other stores do this? BigInJapan? CDJapan? Anyone used Buyee to purchase from Bandai Premium before? I just received advertising from them about it and tempted to use them for my Messer Super Packs order.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    eggy99 replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    I've shaved the pegs a little and no difference. I'm hesitant to shave them too much as they might serve a purpose that is not obvious to me. The good wing clicks in right and tight. The left bounces back from the flush position. So there is something. It must be the hinge. An obstruction wouldn't allow it to go flush then then bounce back. Since many have this issue too I'm not fussed. I won't notice once it has as super packs and banking left or right.

    Bandai DX VF-31

    eggy99 replied to UN Spacy's topic in Toys

    Just opened up my Messer 31F and noticed that the outer left wing on mine is a little saggy compared to the right wing when they are locked into place for fighter mode. I push it into place and it pops back out again a tiny bit, so it's not 100% flush with the inner part of the wing. I've tried to shave away some of the plastic around the inside, but hasn't made a difference. Wonder if I should try just cutting off the pegs. Do they even serve a purpose?

    When do pre orders close for Messer VF-31F Super Parts?
  22. eggy99
    Yes. First is Seven Swords 00 Gundam, and I think the 00 Raiser has been released too. There were early pictures of Strike Freedom and Destiny also WITH wings of light! I don't recall if anyone posted direct links to those KOs here as they really are KOs, as opposed to MoShow and FanMade releases which are not copies of Bandai MB.
  23. eggy99
    I reckon a MB Aegis (perfect transformation) would be the BOMB! I'd buy 2 of those just to pose in robot and waverider mode (is it called waverider in SEED or is that strictly a Zeta term?)

    I can also vouch for RX-78-2 The Origin GFF MC being amazing! Lots of swappable parts, fantastic articulation, and amazing detail. It's in line with how good the Metal Builds were in that period. Granted Metal Build line has improved since then, but that isn't to say this still isn't an amazing piece to have in your collection. All the GFF MC releases weren't great. Very limited articulation, and they felt just like 1/100 versions of the original GFF line, but with better materials. It is surprising that Bandai put out so many GFF MC Unicorn releases under the same mold, because it was quite terrible. Bandai don't care... they still sold LOTS of them, as it seems Unicorn Gundam is more popular than the RX-78-2 now. I think GFF MC line will disappear now and will only be Metal Build line, since they released the F91 under the MB label, which we would have assumed would be released as a GFF MC. I'm still waiting for a MB Perfect Strike Gundam. Also a Force Impulse would be cool too.

    I did start to document the work I was doing on my VF-1A CF, so if I ever find time to go back again and complete the work I would like to post it in the Workshop section.
