I want a Sazabi...... Hahaha! Can't blame them. It's instant money for milking out old molds while adding new accessories. And besides this is the first time I believe this will get semi-reissue. Prices now of the first one is astronomically high with some loose joints to boot. I'm hoping this one is much tighter. Much tighter than the KO counterpart. But I'm interested also to see Metal Build versions of Nu Gundam, Hi-Nu Gundam, and Sazabi. They can include Unicorn and Sinanju as well to that list. Edited June 1, 2017 by no3Ljm Quote
dizman Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Metal Build Zeta with a well thought out transformation and lotsa locking tabs is what I'd like to see eventually. Maybe try and get it back to the angular 80's look and stay away from the rounded corners look Zeta releases usually have these days. I'd even be down for a Wave Shooter variant if they don't want to do the complex transformation. Edited June 2, 2017 by dizman Wave Shootin Quote
davidwhangchoi Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 how about another Gundam Seed Metal Build? seems like they don't like church of yamato or Shinn and SEED Destiny... we haven't one in a while. like destiny anime, bandai's so original and never seems to rehash anything with new markings. Spoiler s/ Quote

I want a Sazabi...... No worries, considering how much MC unicorn/banshee they released, im sure they will release the heck out of wing variations. If they ever do a Nu/Sazabi it'll most likely be metal composite . Im still waiting for their metal build strike gundam. They already have the framework so it should be easy cash for them. Im open to whatever they plan to release. Quote

F360 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 its a prebuild frame with some diecast , then you assembled the armor, head , weapons, etc and attach it to the frame. Looks very nice as is . Quote
Kanedas Bike Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 Interesting, this didn't go up at HLJ. At least I can't find it, even using their Advance Search option. I want to pick one up since I have the Hi Resolution Barbatos (still unbuilt, just sitting in the box). -b. Quote

Their pre-order usually go up one or two days after other sites like NY or Hobby Search. Quote
F360 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 You beat me to it , I was just about to post that too , but im really surprised that the msrp is lower than Barbatos. Quote

Loop Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Son of a B, I didn't expect this at all and missed out lol. Hopefully I can get a hold of one. Quote
F360 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 I did not expect this to be sold out that quick. I mean it's a high rez..... might have to be more prep for the metal composite now Quote
chyll2 Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 it took hour to get sold out. Chances are, you can get one again, just monitor via FigInStock. Quote
kajnrig Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Kind of surprised to see this being covered in the figures thread. It'll take (a bare minimum, but still) some building, but I suppose the prebuilt frame with metal included and intent to NOT paint/customize it does sort of put it more in the figure category. I don't remember the Hi-Res Barbatos selling out so quickly (though that's understandable). Hopefully Bandai will note the interest and ramp up production of this for all of you. Me, I'll stick to the "classic" design. Quote
kajnrig Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 I wouldn't worry too much if you can't get the initial batch. Bandai tends to re-release popular kits pretty regularly (as opposed to their strategy for figures) until their popularity wanes. The Hi-Res Barbatos is still seeing fairly regular reproduction runs.

anime52k8 Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 I'm probably gonna drop this once the GFFMC Zero preorders open up but I might as well order one just in case. Quote

F360 is correct they will backorder and reprint model kits. Quote
Loop Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) I missed it again too even with help from a friend... I'm sure I'll catch it sooner or later. So is it confirmed that there is indeed a GFFMetal Composite of the wing or will it be a hybrid of some sort like the Metal Robot Spirits? Edited June 9, 2017 by Loop Quote
kajnrig Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 It's confirmed. Full "line" is "Gundam Fix Figuration Metal Composite feat. Metal Build." Quote
