There's going to be a 2nd round of pre-orders opening on Tamashii-web.

The date/time for the 2nd round of preorders for the MB Destiny Heine Custom is set.

my copy/pasta with quick translation.

November 11, 2015 (Wed) 19:00 sale starts!
This product has only a limited number of orders available.

Once that number is reached the acceptance of pre-orders will end.
※ Limited to 2 per person?. (not sure on that one)

It is ridiculous how good toy engineering is getting now!

RD Gundam has improved so dramatically over the past few years.

Has any additional preorders for red frame popped up? Usually they come up again within a week of the initial preorder, but I haven't seen any...

Nope , the last one was from anime-export and it went quick .

I doubt this is going to be a hard-find.

Just wait around, there should be sufficient stocks on release.

I did the second I found out NY had the orders open up last week. I had to pay for both of them right away, but that's OK I will not have to worry about the bill when they land.

Damn, sales tax in Cali though...still, comes out about $10 cheaper than BBTS or Amazon.

Oh well.... No Heine Destiny for me. I was just not "destined" to have has MB Destiny in my collection. :rolleyes:

Hmmm, maybe it will show up for decent price next year after release like Trans Am Exia. Still seeing these for around RRP on Rakuten etc.

Posted

I'm pretty sure Nippon-yasan brought some extras to sell later like they always do . But I'm sure they will do their normal increase price after each couple of purchase.

I don't need it, I don't need it....

Anyhow. Can someone explain what the Assault Kingdom figures are? I figured that the bigger toys are similar to Robot Damashii figures but they are actually too big for the RD line so Bandai created the Assault Kingdom line where they can do these big toys and have smaller candy toys to be in scale with the big boys. Is this about right?

I believe you can think of them as essentially a lower quality RD?

Paint apps aren't that great, at least on the older releases.

Thats the reason why I asked. The smaller releases all look like low quality candy toys while the bigger suits like the Quin Mansa and the Psycho Gundam are way better looking. Similar to the RD releases.

That's because they are candy toys.

Yeah, but how fit the bigger toys into the line? Quin Mansa is 14k Yen, the Psycho Gundam is 10k. I know nothing about Japanese candy toys but I assume that they are cheap toys that you get in addition to the candy. I can see how the Gundam Mk-II fits into a candy toy line. I'm confused where the expensive toys fit into the picture.
