You can trry and get those Metal Saga / MoShow brand first to experience it before you splurge and hunt down those released one. It's much cheaper. Good luck!

 

Thanks! Are those the KOs? I'm sure those and the official are both well worth the money. My main thing is waiting for them to release a Gundam I want (recognize). I have no idea where the releases so far even come from but I haven't watched any Gundam since G Gundam.

Yes. Some KO and some original like the 00Qant. The KO ones actually is a good built. The Seven Sword has tighter joints than the one Bandai produces. Hope the official one down the line is much tighter. The releases were mostly Setsuna's suits from Gundam00. And then Freedom, Strike Freedom, Destiny, and the Astrays from Gundam Seed/Destiny. And the recent one is the Gundam F91.

Yeah, I have no problem with KOs as long as they are the kinds that are as good as or even improve on the originals. Seems like a lot of KO companies are run by fans who know what they would want and are really catering to people who care about quality and value.

and finally the very last piece I need to complete my VF1 collection. I can say I am now 100% done with the VF-1  (until the M&M 1J re-issues )

 

Anubis. Did you rob a bank?

How much dd the Zentran uniform cost you? I need one myself at a reasonable price.

 Not at all but ive sold maybe a good 50 items over these past few weeks so I had some extra cash to splurge. Bad news is there is none of these at a reasonable price  They are all way overpriced but in the end to me it was worth it to complete my collection 

[Xigfrid]

@arbit I got an "improved" copy made by @erikos0311 some time ago. He stopped making them but if there is demand, perhaps he can supply again ?

Edit, just saw that you were on the selling thread. Did you got one in the end ?

Busy with work this past week but some new stuff came in. Needed a third Draken for sword posing and another RVF for customizing purposes.

Finally got this guy at a super cheap  price. Funny how much cheaper this was than the firm's version.

[dragonstar1982]

Sorry, the figma version

Nope, they didn't have it...

Got another YF-30, I love this bird. Not crazy about the stand but the VF is cool as heck 

[sh9000]

One to open and one for Slave IV.  

[no3Ljm]

Great purchases, guys!   

Got these today.

MoShow 00Q Gundam

S.I.C. Dunbine: Lord of Byston Well Vol. 4 Leprechaun
Finally I got this one for closure. It's been awhile. Good thing I've found one at eBay. Was watching it and when the seller cut $10 off the following day, I didn't hesitate to purchase it.

Oooh. I really need a Jim Lee Cyclops in my life. And not just Cyclops but the rest of the Blue and Gold teams in Jim Lee style. But not in 6-7 inches figure form but in Hot Toys quality type figures. I don't mind if it's just the Kotobukiya Fine Art statue.

Not really

28000 on buyee. I won another YF-30 for 21500. I just need like 6 more haha jk

[spanner]

28k still isn't too bad for one of these things as we all know how much they have been demanding recently but 21.5k is a great price! Even I would probably have picked up another at that price and happily had 4!

I'd definitely buy the teams in 6" Marvel Legends, especially a Professor X with hover chair and updated Storm figure in white costume.

damn those are some really good deals, especially the 21500 one. i remember that was the price i paid for mine at launch

[Slave IV]

I know I'm late in the game but finally got my hands on one of these and holy $h!t is this thing good!

And to think I almost didn't get one and thought I would be ok with it.

I know all the rage right now is new, like the Spartan and the 31J Super Parts so here's some other new stuff that seems seriously underrated:

 

These missile effects are so versatile and let you achieve the look we all have in our heads when we think about Macross. It's like a dream come true.

[ntsan]

Got Michael renewal at good price and it's from local too!  So hard to find one at decent price.

The other two is from Japan, ironically one of the newspaper they used for wrapping got a big ad about travel to NZ, well the ad indeed landed on NZ lol
