calubin_175 Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Metal Build Red Frame to be web exclusive as it said "reservation date pending". Phenex is regular retail. I must say the choice of gold decals is poor for the Heine colour, it blends in too much. Due to the lack of contrast with the orange and red, it really does look like an "event random color exclusive", rather than a separate legitimate in universe color variation. But then again, TM Revolution colors was really forced on anyway. Quote
chyll2 Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 I guess it all boils down to preference, I actually like this exclusive better, I liked the gold/yellow to orange to red colors though I doubt I will be able to get one close to SRP so I might skip it as well (since I prioritize Valks now) Quote
Falcon Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Tamashii Nations '15 exhibition exclusive: Metal Build Destiny (Heine Westenfluss) http://tamashii.jp/special/tamashii_nation/ Does this mean it's not a web exclusive or standard issue? Will be hard to get then? Quote
areaseven Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Does this mean it's not a web exclusive or standard issue? Will be hard to get then? Yup, it's gonna be a Tamashii Web exclusive. Quote
calubin_175 Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Tamashii Nation 2015 exclusive on 30th October 2015. Anyone interested? Yahoo Auction Japan is already listing it for 26,000 yen, a substantial mark up. I think scalpers will be camping outside before open and the Metal Build figures will be gone within the first hour. Meanwhile, the auction price of Strike Freedom has dropped down to 31k. I think it may fare similar to the Astray Gold Frame in terms of production numbers. Quote
F360 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 http://biginjap.com/en/mecha/12759-metal-build-destiny-gundam-heine-custom.html at 28000 yen and is already pre-sold out at Big in japan. This being a Tamashii Nations '15 exhibition exclusive makes it much harder to get since you have to go their to buy it. Quote

F360 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 F360, did you get to pre order one? no, I missed too. I wasn't expecting them to post it so early. so when I was checking around for the new Takara Diaclone Dia-Battles V2, I saw the bad news. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Thanks! I wonder if anyone got an order in? Quote
Loop Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 I missed it for sure, but oh well. I can live with the standard edition release. Quote
joppewo Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 http://tamashii.jp/special/tamashii_nation/item_05.html ※開催記念商品は、イベント終了後『魂ウェブ商店』でも販売を予定しております。 Seems like it'll be offered on the Tamashii web-store eventually. Most likely lottery based I guess Quote
F360 Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Good to know , thanks for the update, so theirs still hope of it not being too expensive . Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 My guy said he can secure me one for 27500, im crossing my fingers he'll come through... But it looks hard to get Quote

Most likely lottery based I guess Historically, it may just be from the same production run, so lottery based is likely. So what Tamashii Event items had been offered through web-store post event previously? Quote
joppewo Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 (edited) I believe that all the Tamashii Nations event exclusives from 2012 (MB Trans-AM Raiser onwards) have been offered on a lottery basis. Not too sure about the previous years for GFFMC Psyco MK I (H.K Night) & RX78-2 Roll-out, although these were made available at various gundam events around where I live.

Guest davidwhangchoi Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Thats some good connection you got there .if you're looking for one nin nin game has it for pre order. Personally i heard some crappy things about the site re: taking more pre orders than they can deliver and then taking time to get a refund but some have successfully got stuff from them. http://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/japanese-import-hobbies-toys-bandai-premium/16404-destiny-gundam-heine-machine-metal-build-tamashii-nation-2015-en.html Quote
Loop Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Damn, looks to be about double the price at Nin nin, I refuse to use them ever again they screwed me on the avalanche weapons+. Quote

Now that they are doing a recoloring, I wonder if they will every announce the Wing of light kit that they tease us with. Quote
areaseven Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 For those who are already mad enough to buy the Assault Kingdom Psycho Gundam... Assault Kingdom Series MA NZ-000 Queen Mansa Quote
anime52k8 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 It makes more sense then Psycho gundam, There's almost nothing in the way of toys/models for Queen Mansa, this is really the first opportunity to get it as a large toy. Quote

Now that they are doing a recoloring, I wonder if they will every announce the Wing of light kit that they tease us with. Nin-nin is evil. They always claim to have stock and they don't. You also have to chase them for refunds or equivalent amount vouchers. For mainstream stuff they should be okay, but not for event and web shop exclusives. I ordered a Heine Destiny from YJA via middleman. Quote
F360 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Ok, I just found something awesome on Taobao and is wondering if any of you can recommend a good agent to get stuff from them. I bet some of you can already guess what I'm trying to get. But I'm no good at those guessing games so here it is. Metal Saga - RTX-008 Vanishing Trooper ( Huckebein ) Fanmade metal build for a good price too. http://suprememecha.blogspot.com/2015/10/review-metal-saga-rtx-008-vanishing.html It's $200 on Aliexpress but should be much cheaper on Taobao even with with agent fee and international shipping fee (under $150) Quote
calubin_175 Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Taobao is definitely cheaper, if you get one, let me know how well the production quality is. Not sure how much diecast is in it. Japnaese reviewer said the painting is similar to Bandai's. Review here. http://www.inask.net/blog-entry-566.html There is a joint strength diagram, with green being the tightest, and red being the worst. There is no waist articulation. I think this agent should be okay, haven't used it before. http://www.frugirls.com/en Quote
F360 Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks, I'm definitely going to get it, just deciding on which seller now. It seems many seller still don't have them instock yet so I was inform with a 2 week wait. and only a few were able to get them early. I found 2 video reviews on youku which talk about some of the QC issues, many minor ones. The waist does turn left an right, just no arch up and down. And the Hands look cheap. here's link to the video. http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTM1MjAxNDU1Mg==.html?from=s1.8-1-1.2 http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTM1MDY3MTE3Mg==.html?from=y1.7-1.2 Edited October 13, 2015 by F360 Quote
