F360 Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 What is the exact release date for the Metal Build Exia Repair III reissue? HLJ states 31st of May which would be too late for my PW shipping deadline. Yeah , Hlj mess up the dates again , it will not show up in May . By tamashii's May releases , the only metal build releasing this month is the Metal Build Hiene custom (orange). The Exia is in August, so it could be your next next PW shipment . Quote
Scyla Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Thanks for the replies. I myself was surprised about HLJs release dates because I thought the MB Exia ought to be releases later this year. Oh well time to update my toy budget spread sheet. Quote
F360 Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Amazon have the GFF metal composite rx-78-2 the origin repack for $89. I'm sure most already has it , but if you were thinking about it before . This is a very good price . http://www.amazon.com/Bandai-Tamashii-Nations-G-F-F-M-C-RX78-02/dp/B00QEQZAM2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_mini_detail&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&tag=viglink20248-20 Quote
Loop Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 If I was looking for this release I would bite, but I have a 1x of each type of GFFMC rule so I can save for other Macross related toys. Quote
ErikElvis Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I hate my gffmc black unicorn. (Forget what it's called). It's floppy and the gold looks cheesy. I have a preorder for the Hein custom at bbts but not sure if I still want it. It's $300+ bucks and I don't even watch gundam. I just like the metal builds. I'm still waiting on the red frame from them too. Quote
Loop Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 When you order from BBTS it takes a while after release for them to get them. I really have only been using them if I miss out on a JP pre-order on these things. I will say though that they tend to jack up the prices on Tamashii web exclusives quite a bit. They also did the price gouging thing on the Metal build Exia Avalanche. The Hein Custom is going for 19,000JPY on the we shop. If it's a general release the price hike is not too bad considering they had to shop it over. I will reserve the general releases if I missed out just in case. If I see it open up on a JP shop, I cancel the BBTS order and order from JP. It cuts down on the delay. Sorry to hear about Unicorn Banshee being floppy. I have not taken any of mine out of the box. I wonder if that is a common complaint on that model? The only one I have touched is the original GFFMC Unicorn and it felt right to me, but all I did was transform it and then put it on its stand.

F360 Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Well Hein Custom is suppose to release this month so if you see a better price just cancel BBTS. The demand for it seem to die down after announcement of the normal destiny with WOL. Also not sure if Blufin is having problems or anything on the USA distribution but they have not update their website for a long time only little stuff on Facebook here and there . The joints on my MC BANSHEE is not loose either so maybe you got hit by Bad QC? Quote

Loop Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 So it looks like they messed up the plastic base on the 1/72 "mech warrior" the base says "mech worrior" saw over on this thread: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=43723&p=1277473#entry1277473 Quote

Loop Posted May 17, 2016 Posted May 17, 2016 I guess if push came to shove you could take the old stuff off and do a custom paint job to the base. Quote
F360 Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I guess if push came to shove you could take the old stuff off and do a custom paint job to the base. I'll probably just leave it alone , I know it's a Strike gundam , anyone that comes over to my place will know it's a strike gundam and will probably get a good laugh from the name. Quote

F360 Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) And the MB Blue Frame (full Weapons) appeared Edited May 22, 2016 by F360 Quote
Loop Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 Can't wait to get a Blue Frame, not so hot on the Powered option set though. I might pick one up any way though. Quote
Scyla Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 Not really interested in that Blue Frame variant. Quote
F360 Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 I would much prefer the Astray blue frame second l , but they might make the Second L as a Option set similar to the Powered Red. Quote

Big s Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 So I guess Megahouse is putting out a poseable worker unit from IBO. Looks like it has a pilot included too. I'm hoping it's popular enough that some petit mobile units get made from other series like the ones in 0080 or CCA or Unicorn. Quote
