Ouch. Sorry to hear about your bad experience @Arky. Hope @LUNA PARK delivers your Metal Build 00 Trans-Am Raiser.  

I know I haven't really purchased anything to try Luna Park but based on what I'm seeing on everyone's experience, their process is kind of inconsistent. Yes, maybe one worker is different from the other. But then, it's Luna Park's responsibility to oversee such things. Management and its owners. They need to do a better job to build reputation. I know they're small compared to the big Japanese online stores out there but if they already charging a lot on these exclusives, then they should treat it properly.

Anyways, good luck Arky and hope to hear good news soon on your Trans-Am Raiser.  

Thanks.

P Bandai is usually 4-8 weeks behind the curve. When the MB full cloth came out I ordered 1 from Nin Nin Game and 1 from P Bandai a few hours later.

Nin Nin had it at my front door 5-7 days after release date.

P Bandai took about 6-8 weeks to arrive after the release date. 
 

so just be aware P Bandai is legit , their shipping times suck. I believe someone said Pbamdai has to wait for all US bound builds to finish because they send them over on boat or something of the like

It'd be cool to see how you display them all, if there are any pics available.

Yup, they usually on boat.

And you even replied after his display post.  

Unless you want him to post all of the Ootori packs on all of his Strike, then I also want to see it.

I wonder if the red MB 00 Seven Sword is vaporware bow that they didn’t show any new images during the last Tamashii Nations event.

'Alternative Strike' is the Lego of Metal Builds.  

And yes, I'm also waiting for Skygrasper and Perfect Aile Backpack.

Ootori X Lightning looks really good too. Fairly unstable though with both the backpack and stand just on the edge of staying connected.

Any chance for an EVA 00 MB preorder to go on Amazon or somewhere else US based?

I missed out on the initial round a couple weeks back.

Thanks! That looks awesome!  

Can't imagine how it's going to look if the Aile Pack is the actual Perfect Aile Pack that has those mounts for another Launcher and Sword armaments. Overkill.

I hope Bandai will release a Nu Gundam and a Sazabi in the Metal Build line to. 
While I adore the sculpt, deco and gimmicks on the Ver Ka MG kits (love the green psycho frame on the Nu) and I have issues with the sculpt of the MB Hi-Nu they are just so fiddly and not fun to pose.
Generally they are too heavy for their own good. On my Hi-Nu the backpack falls off if you look at it funny, the legs on the Nu collapse and the Fin Funnels are a mess. 
The Sazabi is probably the best but the weapons are too heavy for the wrist joints.

Don‘t know if this post would fit better into the Gunpla thread. 🤷

I have to change the 'MB' to 'MG' on the Hi-Nu sentence since you made it sound like you already have the 'TBA' MB Hi-Nu already.
