Ack! And here I am trying to fight of the temptation to start collecting the HMR Destroids. B.I. ka talaga Saburo.

Man, I really want a Monster, as well as the rest of the Destroids. Gotta stay focused though and complete Delta Platoon first. I’m already getting sidetracked by a lot of things I didn’t plan on getting, of which the Premium Finish SDF-1 is the biggest. I hope Arad and Chuck comes out after April next year... -
Good for you Noel! Now I wonder how long they’ll take to get mine to ship...
-
That’s too bad. It would have been great to use the missile pod as an option for the 31. So our only hope now is for the upcoming Delta movies to introduce more pod options, hopefully with an armor pack variant, and missile loadout for the wing hardpoints. Can’t believe I’m suggesting more ways to get me to spend. My wallet is already in a coma.
-
Has anyone ever tried swapping the container pods between the 30 and 31? A bit lazy to dig up my 30 from storage to try it myself.
-
Yay! Me too!

Since they're doing Mac 7, I wish they'd release the rest of Fire Bomber in 1/60. That'd be so awesome. A VF-11C with armor parts wouldn't hurt either.

Wow, must be impressive to see them all lined up! I have the normal cloth ex Libra as well and all that diecast armor makes for one seriously impressive figure. All those weapons and extra hands for the rest of the Saints can only make me wistfully imagine how awesome having all of them together must be like, especially the God cloth versions. -

Nice purchases Anubis! Esp the Sheng Long! Sorely tempted to start collecting the Dragonball Figuarts, but I can't afford to start collecting a new line. Also digging the God Cloth Pisces Aphrodite. You a Pisces? Or are you collecting all the Gold Saints? I'm a Libra myself. Managed to snag a pre-order of God Cloth Libra Dohko from HLJ. It seems he's in high demand because he has the weapons and gripping hands of all the Gold Saints. I'm just after the Libra Saint though. -
Ditto Noel! I've warmed up to the Kai quite a bit, so I'll be happy to get one if I can. But I'd be happier if they'd give us the rest of Delta platoon already, not to mention their corresponding super parts. Speaking of which, Mirage's supers are just that...a mirage. For now.
-
Well, how else would you color the planes of a unit whose primary function is to distract and subdue the enemy through music/culture? If Delta Squad used military colors, then wouldn't that make the enemy shoot them even more? This is actually hinted at in the show, where they showed the early stages of Walkure. During their initial unsuccessful sorties, Walkure wore less gaudy and more functional clothing, while the valks had the default military/navy grey colors (except for Arad's who retained his dragon skull emblem). Or would you rather have them look like this?
-
Thanks Chyll! So as long as the declared value is under USD 200.00/PHP 10k, it won't get held by customs right? That's good to know.
-
Just a quick question chyll: if you ship by DHL, do you still get chopped by PH Customs? Or does DHL deliver the package straight to your address? Only ever tried ordering from Japan online once when I was in the Philippines. I ended up paying as much as the price of my orders (a couple of MG kits) in customs tax . Never tried it again since then.
-
So they made the box thicker, while lowering the profile. That's definitely going to mess with how I store my valks. I put the boxes of the supers/armors right next to its valk since they're the same profile. Only the supers for the YF-29's are stored differently because of their size. The OC in me is already cringing at this change.

I spotted Mirage’s 31c with super packs on page 82 of Model Graphix #396 over at Cosmo DNA, although that might be the 1/72 kit: http://ourstarblazers.com/vault/237a/
-
Still no news on Mirage's super pack?

Nice Lolicon! Emerald Force > Diamond Force! -
For that price, they'd better deliver!
-
Wow, I was wondering why the CDJ page for the 31 kai was removed. And I had put on an alert in figinstock too. Oh well. If NY is not selling the Kai, then I can give it a grudging pass. More money to pay for the 31E and 31S. Out of curiosity, how much was it in BIJ shipped? Too lazy to search past posts.
-
Man, this one I cannot resist. Unfortunately, I missed the CDJ pre-orders for the 31j Kai. Did they ask for payment upfront? I hope NY puts this up as well, with an option to pay later. My wallet is also reeling from recent purchases and upfront payments.

My two new purchases: Surpised by two things: 1) As my first GFFMC, I didn't realize that the box of the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam was so big! I'm happy that I got this sealed for a good price from Jungle! 2) Although the Cosmo Zero's box is almost as big as the Unicorn's, the actual toy itself is a lot smaller than I anticipated. Also, I can see that swapping the wings is inevitably going to cause scratches and paint chips due to how the slots for the wings are implemented. I'm not exactly sure that the size and gimmicks justifies the price, despite it being partly diecast. -
C’mon Bandai! Stop teasing us with the single horn releases and give us Delta leader’s quad horn beauty already! And while you’re at it, make sure he gets more screen time in the upcoming movies, preferably with a new armored/tornado/strike/everythingbutthekitchensink loadout pack. I don’t care if you put full concert lights, speakers, fog generators and flame throwers pack on, just release Arad’s ride already!

Now what are the chances of Bandai releasing Arad's Kairos custom? I'd probably consider getting that instead of the cannon-fodder Alpha 03.
-
Wow, I can't believe they're releasing the VF-31A ahead of Chuck's and Arad's! On one hand, that's good news for me because that means more breathing space for my wallet. I'm kind of in the minority in that I'm not after the 31A. The drab military grey color scheme doesn't do anything for me. I'd rather have the complete Delta Squadron, airshow colors and all. Funny because the 31A is the only real delta winged valk in the series.

Thanks for the size comparison Lolicon! Looks beautiful! Can’t wait to get mine. A little disappointed that it was’t in scale with our 1/60 valks. I guess that’s the closest we’re going to get to a “DX” quality Cosmo Zero.
