anime52k8 Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 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. They're the same scale as the candy toys (about 1/200), they're aesthetic is the same and they're compatible with the same stands/accessories. but because there so large they're being sold through their online shop as stand alone figures with a much higher price (which results in them having a higher quality finish and construction). Also, even though they're huge toys that cost a lot of money, they still come with the same nasty gum that the regular candy toys do. Quote
joppewo Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) If anyone still hasn't managed to snag one, SF @HLJ: http://www.hlj.com/product/BANN01279 Also, new Tamashii column for MB SF: http://tamashii.jp/column/43/ Seems like MB Destiny (Heine) will be getting a 3rd release in June 2016 Edited November 16, 2015 by joppewo Quote
eggy99 Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 There is still hope for me to get a Destiny Heine custom! WOOHOO! Quote
joppewo Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Oh, I missed this part out "なお、対をなす「METAL BUILD デスティニーガンダム」について、あまりにも多数のご要望を踏まえまして、このたび 「魂ウェブ商店」 で 「リニューアル発売」 をすることに決定いたしました！" MB Destiny 'renewal' sale as Tamashii webshop exclusive incoming too . Not sure if it will be a straight re-issue or with minor changes. Perhaps the WoL might be thrown in with this release. Edited November 16, 2015 by joppewo Quote
F360 Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 The demand for the MB Heine Custom must be overwhelming, due to lack of the normal MB Destiny reissue. Now that the word is out that they are going to do a Renewal of the MB Destiny , I wonder if the 3rd batch of Heine Custom would finally slow down. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 how about a justice mb and infinite justice mb. i can't stand that sorry pilot shin getting so much demand Quote
F360 Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 Maybe they will finally make a MB Infinite Justice after MB strike Freedom, seems the time of MB normal Justice has come and passed. (at least they made a RD Justice ) Quote
SuperHobo Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I could go for an MB infinite justice for sure. I don't own a pink/ magenta gundam yet so this will do nicely. Quote
eggy99 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I want a MB Perfect Strike before Justice. If Bandai were cheeky they'd could milk the Strike mold and release it 9 times - AILE Strike, Launcher Strike, Sword Strike, Perfect Strike, Strike Rouge, Strike Rouge (Kira colours), Strike Rouge Ootori, Strike Rouge IWSP. 1 Detolf for just all those MB Strikes. XD Quote
SuperHobo Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I hope the payment requests for strike freedom come in early this week so I can have SF before Thanksgiving. Quote
F360 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I hope the payment requests for strike freedom come in early this week so I can have SF before Thanksgiving. I wont bet on it. The release date is 11-21-15 which is a Saturday, but it's almost 1 day ahead of USA, and all Shipping services close on Thanksgiving. And with the holiday season already active , it pretty much impossible to get it before thanksgiving. Quote

calubin_175 Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 If anyone still hasn't managed to snag one, SF @HLJ: http://www.hlj.com/product/BANN01279 Also, new Tamashii column for MB SF: http://tamashii.jp/column/43/ Seems like MB Destiny (Heine) will be getting a 3rd release in June 2016 That SF was from my cancellation. I still have 3 in total on order from various sources though. The Renewal Destiny will either be a color tone change if we're going by the definition of renewals from the SoC line(Voltes V, Gunbuster). It may include the Wings of Light or be released separately, likewise with the one for the Strike Freedom. Though, I think not including the Wings of Light in the one package would be a smarter idea since they could reuse the existing box size and layout, Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 Good news on the MB Destiny re-release/renewal whatever. I sold my first copy on the Boards awhile ago and wouldn't mind picking up a copy to replace it. And like a big dummy I drug my feet and missed the Heine pre-order on N-Y. Sigh. -b. Quote
eggy99 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 so does it mean that only Shinn MB Destiny is getting a re-release and not the Heine MB Destiny? Or is it both getting a re-release? Quote
joppewo Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 so does it mean that only Shinn MB Destiny is getting a re-release and not the Heine MB Destiny? Or is it both getting a re-release? Third release for Heine Destiny in June '16 (pre-order window opens 19th Nov on Tamashii web). 'Renewal' for Original Destiny TBA - confirmed as Tamashii web-exclusive Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 i can't believe i want original destiny. but he looks good. Quote

joppewo Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) Wouldn't be surprised if they took in too many orders for it. Most other shops seemed to have closed their pre-orders fairly quick unlike NY Expect to see it pop-up again on release date for a significant markup on NY Edited November 18, 2015 by joppewo Quote
Loop Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Damn it, now where do I go! This sucks... Quote
F360 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) at least we know a 3 batch is on the 19th, so maybe we'll see some open slots .. maybe.. Edited November 18, 2015 by F360 Quote
joppewo Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) I'll just wait till it's released to the market. With 3 consecutive release windows, it might end up like the Trans-AM Exia and stay fairly close to retail price. What's more, with the upcoming 'renewal' of the original Destiny, prices might not spike too much *edit - got my refund notification from PayPal Edited November 18, 2015 by joppewo Quote
Loop Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I hope so, cause it is a sad day when I say "Shut up and take my money! " only to have it thrown back in my face Quote
F360 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I hope so, cause it is a sad day when I say "Shut up and take my money! " only to have it thrown back in my face this feels almost like when they cancel my connecting Flight and I was stuck at the airport for 8 hours, but without the comp drinks and the class upgrade later on Quote
eggy99 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Maybe I will go with My Kombini for the 3rd Heine Destiny preorder. Shinn Destiny is not my cup of tea. I passed up preordering it originally when it was being offered on OzGameShop for $180 AUD. But I absolutely love the Heine Destiny. Such a striking colour combination. If they do offer wings of light, I will definitely want a set for Destiny and Strike Freedom. Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 wait wait what happened?? i thought people got their pre-orders in... did anyone get an order in with NY that has not been cancelled? or biginjapan? maybe i didn't get ripped off paying 35 bucks more afterall to get it early Quote

Some already got their refund. They haven't refunded me yet, so I'll email them later in the week Quote
