I can still hardly believe (in a good way) that they're seriously giving us the command car.

>>5691240
What a beast.

>>5692836
Unit 2 and 3 as a p-bandai twin pack, or just Unit 3 as p-bandai and then unit 2 as normal.

Can't tell if they will distinguish between movie and tv versions.

>>5692557
Vifam only has one one or two releases left, realistically and L-Gaim probably has 3 or 4 left. Cross Ange is also probably already dead too considering they avoided doing new tooling for the past several releases. I'm curious what will replace those lines as well. I just hope it doesn't end up being even more UC or Seed Gundam.

Maybe bring Fafner back? That has a shit ton of stuff left considering Bandai mostly only released recolors of the Nothung Models instead of anything with new molds. FMP has a couple things they could put out next year to coincide with the new anime next year too.

I suspect Layzner is a shoe in as well as a possible Xabungle line. Gorg could only support three releases tops, Votoms has a ton of other modern Bandai stuff already, and Galient isn't terribly popular as far as I know (though if they must stick with 80s Sunrise Real Robots it or Gorg would be ideal in my opinion).

Ugh..... same size as Revoltech, but more expensive.
With Phantom Labor on the horizon, hopefully they release some of the more obscure labors like TV/OVA's Peacemakers, Saturn, or reactive armor labors.

Hey guys, I was wondering if the repaired Kshatriya was a full suit, or just an option set? Cause it says parts in the title, but as far as I can tell otherwise it's a full suit of its own.

>>5692879
The prototypes appear to be fully-painted from head to toe like the SHF Stormtroopers.

I'm happy to pay a bit extra for that, it means the white won't yellow over time.

>>5692876

It's a full, complete figure! The parts comes from the fact that it includes parts for you to convert it between the Besserung (OVA episode 6) and Repaired (episode 7) configurations.

Backing up Monitoranon here to say that the Besserung/Repaired is a full unit. Has the components to convert it between the two states.It's pretty damn nice too. Then again the base Kshatriya was amazing so it's hard to screw up a bunch of parts swapping on it, really.

Nevertheless, it looks fantastic every time I see pics of it, so I'm always really tempted.

I do find myself wondering if the reprint of Kshatriya proper will have the changed stand attachment point/adapter that the Repaired/Besserung has.

Char's Zaku and Barbatos are 50% and 60% off on CDJapan.

>>5694963
I wasn't too surprised about Barbatos going on a steep discount---it was already predicted in this board.

But I'm surprised by the discount on Char's Zaku. I wonder why it's being marked down so aggressively... Maybe CDJapan has overstock? Could it be it's not selling as well as predicted?

>>5694963

that doesn't seem right.

>>5695171
RX-78 was on sale too but sold out. Char's Zaku is still around some places. Both are being reissued too.

>>5695186
jump on it, even if it's a fuck up, it'll still be discounted, and it's one of my favorite figures.

>>5695408
yeah but seventy bucks for two guys i only kinda want-ish is a bit much for me

>>5695305
RX-78 is still up on AmiAmi fwiw

>>5695412
Yeah, I feel ya. I have the SHCM Pro of Char's Zaku and while I have no doubt the RD has more articulation, I am just happy with it and I prefer the more 'real' approach they took on it as opposed to the anime accurate approach of the new RD.

>>5694963
Thanks for the heads-up. I cancelled my Civil War Cap preorder earlier after seeing the early 2chan pics, and picked Char's Zaku up instead.

I'm the guy from the last thread who just picked the ANIME RX-78-2. I promise I'll take some nice pictures of them together when Char arrives.

>>5696018
What's wrong with the new Cap fig?

>>5696035
I just didn't like the look of it. The 3D-printed faces are fine, but the body bugged the fuck out of me in the in-hand pictures. Looks more like segmented armour than a cloth outfit and the legs are really weirdly skinny vs the film design, they look like skin-tight leggings.

I think I might just take the plunge on a Hot Toys EvansCap, the new Civil War version looks pretty definitive.

>>5695186
EMS just went up in price recently IIRC. All orders cost about 500-600 yen more now. Makes DHL or SAL more attractive options.

>>5696266
Sorry, it goes up on June 1st. CDJapan might just be calculating the extra cost already.

Anyone have the Codarl weapon set? I was going to finally order a Venom and I was wondering if it was worth picking up too. The weapons look cool, but 3000 yen seems pretty steep for what you get. Maybe I'll just pick the set up if I decide to get a few mass produced Codarls later. I think the spear or ax could look great with Laevatein though.

I eventually had to hold the back part with my finger while connecting it one peg at a time with my other hand.

Completion-ism is the way to madness. Just buy the specific stuff you really love. Makes your collection more eclectic and unique. Saves your wallet and takes up less space. Makes you happier.

If you always really loved the Vierres, by all means, grab that fucker. But if the only reason to get it is cause they made it, maybe you are better off pretending it doesn't exist.

Would anyone who has the new zaku be willing to swap an activated heat hawk with me? Mine came with a scratch in the paint and it drives my autism.

[email protected]

>>5698249
Can't you order a replacement from Bandai?

>>5698255

A spare heat hawk? Or the entire zaku? If the former I've never known you can get individual parts.

>>5698268
The hawk, obviously.

>>5698284

Do you just contact them or what?

>>5698292
I don't know, I've never done it before.

>>5698297

>>5698234
I like the entire Dunbine line. Skipping the hyper Leprechaun though,

I am a semi-completionist. If a mould is good, then I would get all colour variations of that mould unless the colour is ugly. Like how I got all the VF-25s but only two of the YF-29s.

>>5698234
Not him, but it's hard for me to not want to buy more Dunbine RD's. The few figures I've gotten from it are fantastic, and they're some of the most unique mech designs out there.

As much as I want more Dunbine RDs for my collection, I think I'm gonna stop where I'm at with Dunbine, Todd's Drumlo, and Virunvee. But it's so tempting to pick up anything from the Leprechaun to a Fou, just because I love the designs so much.

If you love the Leprechaun, you might want to go ahead and get it. It's one of the best Aura Battlers they've made. Sweet hand-candy.

>>5698482
>and they're some of the most unique mech designs out there.
This is really only true in terms of a comparison to other 80s mechs. The RD line alone has released a bunch of mechs far more out of the box than any of the Aura Battlers. Just look at the Fafners, the Anti-Zegas, Tauburn, or Dann for examples. Not to say that I'm shitting on the Aura Battlers, they have a lot of good designs and generally the esthetic was very innovative for their time. I just think "some of the most unique ever" is an overstatement.

I do think Drumlo and Zwarth stand out as some of the more interesting Dunbine designs and are still very unique in their style to this day. The incorporation of their backpacks as the carapace in their beetle motif isn't something that I can think of as being repeated. The heroic units tend to be far more in line with the general proportions of other 80s robots. I'd love to know how well Dunbine merchandise sold in comparison to the other Sunrise robot shows of the 80s.

>But it's so tempting to pick up anything from the Leprechaun to a Fou
I usually see the Leprechaun going pretty cheap. You could probably pick one up for under $35 if you shopped around and waited for a good opportunity.

I'm the anon that had the broken Shenlong part a few months ago. Don't bother contacting them, they don't deal with non-Japanese residents. You'll need to go through a proxy, pay for the part, pay to have it shipped to the proxy from Bandai, then pay the proxy their fee and the cost to ship it to you. Using SAL you'll still be paying 2000JPY+.

Just wait for Bluefin to bring it over, buy another Zaku from them (everyone needs plural Zakus), and claim the flawed piece came with that one. Their customer service isn't the 8th level of hell like Bandai JP's, they'll help.

>>5698637


Thanks for the advice anon, are you talking about snagging it off amazon?

>>5698759
Yeah, when Bluefin distributes it. Not sure if they've even announced it yet, though. I don't really keep track. One thing to note is that Bluefin's CS requires you to input the code on the stickers that they themselves put on the boxes, so you can't just buy the JP version and expect them to help. It sucks, but what can you do? I guess that you could always ask an anon here for their code, they're all the same for each individual item I think.

So I wasted money buying an extra char for the accessories then.

It seems someone escaped her containment thread...

Look, everyone understands that the retro look is not for everyone. Personally, I prefer the modern iterations of MSG suits over the anime accurate ones. But that doesn't mean that the ANIME RDs look like 'shit.' They look like they are supposed to be, anime accurate. So what you really are trying to say is that you don't like the look--just fuckin say that if you are so inclined in voicing your hot opinion. Shitposting is a waste of time.

>>5698987
I'm not sure about it fitting on the gundam bazooka. I have one coming in the mail so I'll let you know after it get's here.

THIS

I want a RD DP sooooooooooo bad

>>5701540
Buy the HG.

>>5701260
Damn. I bought it some time ago for like 35 bucks off Amazon prime.

>>5701268
Nothing really. I don't have the Aile Strike so I can't confirm if it uses the same body (not that it would necessarily be a bad thing), but I'm inclined to say that it doesn't because it is in scale with modern RDs.

The biggest issue for me was the face. It looks a bit elongated from a profile view but once I had it in hand I was pleased that it was not a problem. It is a bit back heavy because of the Noir pack but the wings have crazy articulation so you have many options in balancing it and getting a cool pose. For some reason the trigger hands work better for holding the anti-ship swords than the regular grasping hands---I actually like this a lot because I hate having to swap parts in a toy. I would post pics but the Noir packed because I am moving.

At such a deep discount I would recommend it. I guess if you don't like the design that's still a no go. But if you are even the slightest bit inclined and have the $ then go for it.

So as it turns out the horns on Barbatos are kind of fragile and easily snap if, say, it falls off your desk. Oh well. At least they're heavily discounted on CDJapan. Expensive mistake, but it could have been worse.

Patlabor coming. Unit 1 in October, seems to include command car, revolver, and stun baton for accessories. Mentions the arms extending via parts replacement and face replacement part, so that'd presumably be the armored visor.

Fitted the missile-butt to my Xi. Hadn't been too big a fan of the thing when it was first shown, but in-hand it works incredibly well. Really fills out the design in a cool way, adding some considerable junk to its trunk.

>>5702309
Ouch, sorry to hear that anon. I've had antenna get bent due to dorp before, but was luckily always able to bend them back into shape with no ill effects. Bandai used to be really good about including spare antenna/v-fins at the beginning of the line, but now that's more the exception than the rule.

That being said, two of my recent RDs have included spares (Char's Zaku and the Xi; ANIME RX-78 kinda includes one too if you count the vulcan muzzle efffect).

It's annoying, but the way the damage came out was easily cleaned up to look like how it did for a few episodes when part of the horn got torn off. Plus if they do release that options set of the extra configuration parts I'd want extras anyways. So a somewhat expensive lesson to learn, at ~$30, but not the worst of things.

My understanding is that if you use the code that comes with Ingram 1 and preorder Unit 2 on the web shop you'll get the Unit 2 command car and the "special parts" for Unit 1 and 2 included with your Unit 2 order.

Would the special parts be to convert to the movie versions? The differences are all in the head and shoulders right?

As an aside: there's a single sprue nub on the right "shoulder pad" of the figure (or whatever that is). What's the best way to get rid of it? Wirecutters?

Bluefin doesn't even release exclusives for the RD line, at least currently. Only SHF and Monsterarts get webshop releases in the United States.

I hear Tamashii Nations has significant say in what they bring over which is why the RD line always ends up on clearance on places like Amazon. They just push Bluefin to bring over the latest standard releases, even if they're things like Vifam or Wataru that have never even been licensed in the US. Predictably they end up bombing and Tamashii Nations/RD management decides it must be because of a lack of interest in the entire line, justifying their decision to not bother putting out stuff like webshop releases overseas. A classic vicious cycle.

Also, I got my Crossbow in today. He's pretty cool. Hopefully I can get my lightbox set up and do some photos I've been interested in later tonight or tomorrow.

>>5705510

>I love Rise From the Ashes but I don't $90 shipped love it.
Dang anon, you used to be cool... haha, nah I totally get where you're coming from. One thing that helps defray the cost though, is that most Mandarake listings give you TWO Dingoes.

This is because when the Dingo Sniper was originally released, Bandai actually forgot a paint app. To correct this, Bandai shipped out free replacement GM bodies with the corrected paint app to people who had ordered. That's why in the listing you linked there's a Dingo inside a baggie, that's the replacement GM!

The missing paint app is barely noticeable (can you spot it here?), and even when you do see it it still totally works as a paint variation within the squad. I 'only' paid $70 shipped for mine, so it was easy to justify that as paying 35 bucks for each Dingo. They're really excellent figures, and the White Dingo deco looks superb! Definitely recommended if you've got cash to burn.

>>5704945
>Might take some pictures later.
Dooooo it.

>>5705130
Looking forward to your pics! For removing nubs, the absolute best way (in my opinion) is to use a very sharp hobby knife to shave them off, and then a fine file to smooth out the spot if needed. Tools that clip or cut the nub off tend to pinch the plastic together, which results in a not so clean looking mark after you remove the nub.

For a small nub/area though, it might not be too noticeable if you just cut the nub off. Just be sure that the tool you use is sharp.

>>5705510
Oooh, grats on the safe arrival of the Savage, anon!

Peacemaker does have a figure actually. From the CM's Corporation Mecha Action Series. it's probably shit though, based on other Mecha Action Series releases.

Orders are still open on amiami, so it'll probably end up on clearance eventually. Most Tamashii Nations stuff there either sell out in minutes or end up price cut for lack of demand. Seriously, almost every RD for the past half year has ended up getting major price cuts. The OYW stuff is some of the only things that haven't and those were cheaper anyway. I think we've about hit the point were price inflation is becoming a major problem for the line.

From my limited knowledge of other Gundam products, I know the original RX-78-2 and the HCM Pro versions came with even more than this, but coming into this line off the back of SHF Star Wars, where you're lucky to get more than four hands and a gun or lightsaber with each figure, damn. That's a great assortment of accessories.

While I like the Zeon designs more than the Feddie scum, in all honesty the Char's Zaku isn't as well-made as the Gundam. It's got a few rough edges here and there, and has a more soapy texture as opposed to the lovely satin finish on the RX-78-2. It doesn't handle ground poses as well either.

That said, it's still a ton of fun. Will probably pick up a couple of regular Zakus to go with it.

Not really. Because of the waist articulation it has the ability to sorta float around. It's up to the user to position it best for a given pose.

Or do you mean you have a loose cockpit door? Mine will close up nicely and stay closed.

I'm a big Battletech fan, so I couldn't pass up getting what the Unseen Marauder was based off of. The figure's fantastic and towers over most RD's and my Hi-Metal VF1. Really well engineered figure, and the sculpt and paint are top notch.

Hard to go wrong with the Glaug. I got it in along with my Figuarts Mace Windu and Captain America (CW ver) and loved the hell out of it.

It's big and hefty and has some very nice joints on it. Can't really think of anything wrong with it, let alone worth hating on it. Despite how sturdy the leg joints are on it I'm using the stand just for the sake of safety, since mine is sitting up on my desk with a bunch of other goodies.

So who has her? Mainly interested in knowing how QC is and if you can actually play with her, or everything just pops off. I am pleased with my one AGP and wouldnt mind getting into the line a bit more.

>>5711899
Nice additions anon, have fun

God dammit, Bandai. Let my wallet go. Dodai looks good, and I'm surprised at just how much I want the desert colours stuff.

Really liking the RX-78-20. I see why people prefer it over the Zaku now.

Have her, and think the figure is decent; but can't say the AGP is something you can play with really.

QC on the paint/tampo is pretty good. Though the yellow trim on the base body, looks more like a 'mustard'; than the brighter yellow everywhere else might be my only gripe.

So far for part attachment issues, only part that comes off easily is the backpack with the thrusters attached for mine; as well as the Vulcan-pod for the head making it a bit cluttered with the twin-tails. Articulation is limited or well awkward on the figure, certain things like a 'Launching!' pose, took me modding the ankles, waist-side armor, and the wrap-around 'belt' part for the waist to give the legs enough clearance to move as such.

Not the brick the GFF ultimately was, but not something we could play with like a RD.

Hope this helped a bit, and what's your other AGP figure if you don't mind me asking?

Ditto, holding off on Char's Z'Gok in favor of the blue one, and a regular release would be great.

Took some shots! Lost a ton of time fixing my Figuarts Mace Windu so didn't take all that many though (sorry >>5712391 !).

Both figures are great, and >>5712803 was totally right, love the Dom! My one gripe with the Dom is that on mine, the right ankle joint is soooo dang tight. Everything else is superb though (looks gorgeous, excellent range of motion), and hopefully that ankle joint loosens up a bit over time.

Zaku is great too! >>5697986 is totally right that attaching the leg missile packs is a huge pain in the butt. Once you get the hang of it though, it's not bad; after finally getting one set on I was able to immediately attach the other set.

The trick is to first attach the rear half as you're supposed to, then while holding that half in place with one finger, connect the halves at the inner-leg side. After that, push together the halves on the outer-leg side. They'll snap together once you push them close enough.

Kinda easier said then done as it still takes some finger gymnastics though, haha.

>>5713555
Hah, love this shot! "Yer not so giant, come and get us!"

Zeek group shot, can't wait to add the Gouf and Desert Zaku (thanks for the video >>5711711 !) to the line up. Would have liked if the grunt Zaku were a slightly darker shade of green, but still overall super happy with both the Dom and grunt Zaku. Especially love the Zaku's cracker grenades.

>>5713570
>the right ankle joint is soooo dang tight

Makes it easier, and I think safer, to rotate the ankle joint if you tilt the foot into an extreme forward position first (toe pointing up).

>>5713570
>>5713573

Which do you think is more fun in hand? The Dom or the Zaku mold?

264KB, 1200x900px

>>5713627
Very good advice, I'd been doing something similar (bringing the foot all the way forward) so that I could reach in and get a grip on the ankle assembly to have leverage when moving the foot and hopefully limit any stress on the joint connection points.

>>5713630
Oh man, that's so hard to say. If you forced me to pick, I'd give the slight edge to the Zaku simply on account of its accessories, which give you more play options.

>>5713758
The Dom is no slouch, though! Just in terms of the figure alone, I think it's definitely the superior RD. It just looks so dang good and the range of motion is perfect for darn near any pose you can come up with. I really think that whichever RD you pick, you're gonna have fun with it!

>>5713764
The Drumlo equivalent for this year.

Heavy, tight, balanced, articulated, army buildable and in need of a new figure.

>>5713758
>>5713764

Thanks much for the input. I already have the Dom, and count it up there with the Drumlo and Leprechaun as one of the line's best.

And lately I've been tempted by pics of the green Zak. Most of the accessories don't do much for me, but if the figure is good solid hand-candy, I think I'll have to grab one.

And since the Alexander is one of my favorite RDs ever, I really want the Valiants, RedOgre and Liberte too.

I wish I had this much cash to blow. I'm such a pennypincher that I won't get any of them until their prices get slashed a bit more.

>>5714045
Are you one of those guys that just buys a shitload of toys, like $1000+ per month? Or are you one of those guys that has no excess in their collection, doesn't get distracted by impulse buys, and keeps a laser-tight focus on just the core things you like?

Either way: can we switch places?

>>5713094
how's that mazinger?

>>5714234
Ha ha, I spend a lot, but I've yet to spend $1000+ in one month.
I wish I had that kind of money.

I just like to army build grunts in my collection. Makes my collection/displays look nice.

>>5714045
I got 3 Doms, 1 Char's Zaku, 3+2 green Zakus.

Not sure how many Goufs to get. 2 extra green Zakus to flank one guy, maybe flank a Zaku I in the future.

Expect to get 3 Desert Zakus.

>>5714246
I am a person that do spend $1000 per month, but cutting back now due to approaching the pleasure limits of toy collecting.

Just focusing on timeless works like First Gundam, Macross and Star Wars. Avoiding all other temporary fads.

>>5714293
3 Zakus for Side 7 squad, 2 extras to flank any ace, including potential MSV ace Zakus. I hope we will get Garma's Zaku.

Too bad there is no proper bluray remaster version, but only in the form of the PS2 extracted ones that came with the recent bluray extras.

You can buy $1000 per month and still get no excess and shit you know.

>>5714521
It is tough, I now just focus on upcoming releases rather than exploring existing releases through pre-owns.

Over the past few years, upon completing one line after another, I just find another one and sometimes have to pay premium pricing for past releases to play catch up.

>>5714521
Impulse buy would be buying a heavily discounted pre-own to test out the line and then end up completing the line. In short, Impulse buys are unplanned.

Man that hard point thing those had which were so great and were only used on like that and the Gouf Custom.

The RD Gundam mk-2 is pretty good, It's just the head that sucks cock on it.

Still passable enough for me in titan's colors.
