Valkyrie Hunter D Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 SOC Arcadia on sale at HLJ for 19,600 yen. http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN987859/Sci Nice price...but not ENOUGH for me to bite. I bit. I couldn't resist, and I was already hunting it down, so it must've been fate. Quote

If the chest was bigger.. head was smaller I'd be a lot more interested. The legs look great. Looks like an Animated Cartoon Network version. Not crazy about the proportions but it's cool that they are doing something with the licenses. Edited February 17, 2015 by Gakken85 Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 GX-69 Goldymarg! I'll take it! I hope we can get a genesic GGG soon Quote
Dangard Ace Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Kinda pricey. Hope it comes with the Star parts at that price point. …..who am I kidding. I'll still buy it Quote
treatment Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Chachi recently reviewed the GX-31V 40th-anniversary "Voltes V" for RPA: He also showed a couple of significant improvements over the original GX-31V edition in an actual side-by-side comparo. Check his review out! Quote

treatment Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 w00t!got my SKLv2 today...poor SKL's gotta get 0wn3d by Squidy... Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Holy crap? Re-doing it? I was just thinking there isn't an SOC i really care about but I'd be down for this. Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) The latest GaoGaiGar is currentlyy favorite SOC but I've heard many great things about this. Is it a reprint, recolor or renewal? Edited April 21, 2015 by VF-Zer0S Quote
Silverstreak Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Really? I've been debating picking up SOC Gunbuster for a while now but the Aftermarket price isn't nice. Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 It's an "alloy color" version of the old one. I think it's going to be more gunmetal grey, as the first one is the blue and orange. Quote

That sounds awesome. I wonder what new add-ons are going to be released for it. Edited April 21, 2015 by VF-Zer0S Quote
IXTL Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) 22,000 yen MSRP (without tax). A 4,000 yen bump from the original release. Edited April 22, 2015 by IXTL Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 It's a really nice blue color. Perfect just have to pick one up though lol Quote
dizman Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 I missed the first release, shiny gunbuster will be mine! Quote
Silverstreak Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 This will be mine! I've never ordered one of these before. Best places to pre-order? Does the Macross pre-order madness extend to other Bandai lines? Quote
joppewo Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Considering that many people have been waiting for this, I'd predict a quick sell out across Ami2, HS, HLJ and NY once it opens up. The positive side though is that it isn't restricted by licensing issues, the regional Tamashii distributors would get some stock too. But if the recent Voltes-V is of any indication, Bandai might be limiting the stock on this as well Quote
Gakken85 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 The re-issue of God Mars wasn't impossible to find, but it sold fast. I think BBTS and Toysource will get some for sure. Quote
gunbuster76 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 i normally don't buy variants. especially a color one. but ima have to get that gunbuster. Quote
VF-Zer0S Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 i normally don't buy variants. especially a color one. but ima have to get that gunbuster. Judging by your name I can see lol. Speaking of your name, do you still own the original release? If so, how has it held up throughout the years? Quote
gunbuster76 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 it's a sturdy toy. probably one of my top three favorites. in looks and quality. it's held up well over the years. fingerprints are easy to see. but nothing a wipe down won't take care of. Quote
Dangard Ace Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 It's okay. Gunbuster was almost never that blue in the show. I'll stick to my original. I might get one to check it out or flip. Quote

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 If there are any significant improvements or added accessories, I'll do the double dip. For now, I'm ok with having a grey Gunbuster. The artbook illustration above looks like it has the color that would result if you mix the toy's two different colors. Quote
Dangard Ace Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 I give you Noriko Takaya's Gunbuster Index. (I wonder where that dude is now, he should be all over this.) http://www.toponeraegunbuster.com/Gunbuster-Index.html Gunbuster's got some blue in it some screens, when it's reflecting off some lasers or Earth but in shots without that effect it's grey. If there are any significant improvements or added accessories, I'll do the double dip. For now, I'm ok with having a grey Gunbuster. The artbook illustration above looks like it has the color that would result if you mix the toy's two different colors. Exactly! That blue is too blue. Quote
