I only got the aile strike and gun barrel striker a few weeks ago, as it is my first Metal Build I couldn't see any difference. But I will be trying to get the addons when they come out though.

Draig Strike Gundam? Hmmm... 'Alternative Strike' indeed. Like the previous Gunbarrel option set, this is also an 'insta-pass' for me. :db:

Now Bandai, where's the actual proper Sword and Launcher set? :aggressive:

 

 

Just the sword and launcher set feels kinda plan as a option pack .  Now if they can add in the Skygrassper to that set , it would be more complete.  But then the twe price would be 11000 yen similar to the gun barrel set.

I'm reposting the links again from @F360 and adding Nippon-Yasan's:

https://www.nin-nin-game.com/en/preorders/31666-gundam-seed-gat-x105-strike-gundam-limited-edition-metal-build-.html

https://www.nippon-yasan.com/figures/27960-metal-build-strike-gundam-limited-edition.html

 

I'm now reconsidering for a seoncd one since NY's price is a little bit cheaper than the first two. :rolleyes:
Scratch that. Nin-Nin's cheaper. Hehehe. :lol:

Got mine from local pre order. Lucky to be in Asia where Bandai opens PO outside of Japan. And it was pretty smooth compared to previous POs. Perhaps not many want this. 

but not every pre orders are open to bandai online outside of japan rite?

It's limited to one per pax. Think they'll cancel one for you eventually.

oh i see...great if they can cancel cos have issue during payment that y i put in another order.

 

but if it goes through then I guess will use it with the gun barrel set then

I decided that I will allot my budget to upcoming stuff like Sentinel's Mospeada than get another Strike figure. I'll just await for any anime canon packs for it.

Wow the strike price at n-y jumped to 28000 yen.   

It's Y28000 now? Now I'm wondering if I should've bought one when I posted that link last night. :rolleyes:

I know, that is what I am saying, they want almost the same price as my aile strike, NY are pure scum

Can't blame them. That Strike Gundam is an event exclusive release. Unless you live in Japan then you can pick it up from the event itself since that's the requirement to obtain the figure. If not, then people should've ordered one last night when the PO went live since it was just Y21000.

Scum or not,  they're one of the few stores that's doing this preorder. So that's already a given to any event or web exclusive items that they might have.

The problem is they are no better than the ebay scalpers at this point, this is why I avoid NY even if they are the last place.

If it makes you feel better, an unopened MB Aile Strike at Mandarake is already at Y32000. And they're no eBay scalpers.

Not sure about US p-bandai but SEA p-bandai had it for PO yesterday.

Sad to say, US P-Bandai only have apparels to sell. I'm not sure why they even bother setting up a US website. :unknw:
