You're welcome!  

Would be nice too if they will offer the 00 Trans-Am stateside during this event.

Usually that will come in November but let's hope for the best

^ Nice!  

Looking at it, I can't help myself hearing that Zaku 'Eye' sound effect in my head.

Already have the Aile Strike and Metal Build Infinity versions, so easy pass for me. Glad folks can get them relatively easy though! 

[weiser21]

It's the same as the Aile Strike version no?

Same as the previous solo Strike release.

Lol! US gets scraps for metal build. They could have gone for the Destiny Soul Red with the Soul Blue wings of light. Better yet, they could have offered the current OO Trans Am Raiser. Instead we got this lame Strike Gundam. @BluefinBrands what's the deal?

Why Bluefin? They’re just the distributor. Hehehe.   Even with MB’s and DX’s the only culprit here is Bandai. Hahaha!

While Bandai has the final say on what gets sold in what region, Bluefin can have their input and suggest what to bring over. They're responsible for all those Dragon Ball figuarts event exclusives that make it to P-Bandai. They're doing a good job on that so why not Metal Build exclusives as well.

The Strike does seem like a lame choice compared to the new OO Trans Am Raiser.

My point exactly.  

 

[no3Ljm]

For 10th Anniversary celebration, they should have lower the price of the Strike to atleast Y15000. It's already an existing mold only new packaging box. Just sayin'.

I know. I'm trying to find out if the other items were even brought up by @BluefinBrands for consideration.

Bandai is too busy milking the **** out of the Metal Build Franchise. If you really look they just keep re releasing Exias , Astraeas , Strike Freedoms and Raisers. The F91 re release was trash and so was the White/Gold Frame astrays. They have been rebooting the poor Exia frame for how F***ing long and it still has hip/shoulder issues in 2021?

This BS is happening because of the Star Wars/Transformers community. All they do is re release a character with a small color change or different box and all the fanboys are trying to shove a pre order down their throat. Then it came over to the Macross community with all the revivals/revisions/re releases. 

So unless more people voice their opinion we are going to keep getting these **** re releases. This is coming from a devout Metal Build addict too. At the same time Im also pissed that this is going to be the 5th release of that Red Frame. Can we have Nu , Justice or any of the other teased Metal Builds?

Thats a very good point , forgot about all the reboots of the Metal Build Destiny. The Soul Red was a good redemption but 2 other reboots and an ugly *** Heine custom :vomit
