Previous Thread: >>11761789Other mecha toy discussion is also more than welcome!Bandai's official RD page with images and release dates: http://tamashii.jp/item_brand/robot_tamashii/
Bandai's finally releasing the TV SDF-1 they showed off 4 years ago, official page isn't up yet but the listing leaked. 70cm tall, 64cm long when transformed, 90000 yen.
>>11796178manI really want it but its probably gonna cost an extra $300 to ship
>>11796178>90k yenhaha wat
>>11796204The world is collapsing
>>11796178https://x.com/t_features/status/2058730017752748370?s=20
>>11798215I wonder how hard it'll be to get one. At this price even the scalpers have to hesitate, I'd imagine.
>>11796178>90000 yenthat's like a car deposit, fuck you
>>11798238>At this price even the scalpers have to hesitateOnly because it's not Lego and/or Pokemon related.That Venasaur, Charizard and Blastoise Lego set is even more expensive than this and the scalpers went crazy over that one.There will deff be a few scalpers, and some buying to just sell off at a profit in a few years as a minor investment.
>PO CCS toys eva 02 on gundamit a while ago>releases and is available on hlj mid march>still nothing from gundamit>listing doesn't even appear unless logged in and have it PO'dIs something the matter with CCS toys and gundamit ? Same thing happened with the ultimus edition of eva final model, save for the listing which is still here but still shows as pre order
>>11800542Message them. Funny thing is that i also checked out the listing last night and some people on gundamit already got theirs.
>>11800542a lot of listings on gundamit don't show up unless you are logged in; I always assumed its for things they don't actually have the rights to sell outside of china
>>11800548Seems they don't have it yet. Which is weird because there's one review from a purchase. Maybe they're getting it in batches, I did PO quite late. I hope it's only a thing with CCS toys, I have something PO'd there that can't be gotten anywhere else anymore, not getting it would ruin my year>>11801183That would make sense. This one used to show up while not logged in before
ANIME Zeta this summer, Bandai.
>>11801586>get payment request after messaging gundamitOn a sunday no less. Thought even automated mails didn't get sent on sundays
>>11796178It's definitely a "wait for a sale" item. I'll give Bandai some credit not making it an exclusive. But still, that price tag is a hard swallow.>>11799067The lego pokemon hype has definitely died down. That 1k set is now available everywhere since people have come to their senses (and scalpers realising they have to store that shit somewhere).
>>11805101Don’t think this will be going on sale. Bandai loves underproducing DX chogokins so they can cause artificial scarcity and ensure they always sell out. Best case is probably getting one for retail with less of a headache when they reissue it for an anniversary after most people already grabbed this one.
>>11805119But will they force their customers to pre-order the toy by discontinuing it on day one?I noticed that for select items, some Japanese companies force their customers to pre-order their shit by outright taking away the option to buy it after pre-orders close. Why are some items on HLJ “discounted” on release date? What is the name of this scam again?
>thread can’t be bumped, even though it’s 280 posts away from the bump limit.I don’t get it, why do Jannie’s keep putting wheel boots on Robot Damashii Generals?
>>11817683Because letting threads auto-sage was easier for them than dealing with the spammers.
What's a good price to pay for modern damashii nowadays. >>11817691It doesn't change anything but kills the board, but they always hated this place.
>>11796178>>11796179>>11796181Is this ever going to go up on like P-Bandai, or some American store...?
>>11820273>P-Bandai,Why would it? It's a regular release that's already gone up and even sold out for preorder on some sites.
>>11820273>SDF Macross>American storelol, lmaoIt sold out immediately even with people having to pay up front.
>>11820285>>11820356Other Macross DX-Chogokins go up on American stores/P-Bandai.
>>11820448Yes but SDF/DYRL items aren't allowed because of the kikes at Harmony Gold, it's been this way for years.
>>11820454
>>11820464Note the price, 2x regular retail. Bbts is literally buying them at retail to resell in the states, there is no licensing for US retail of SDF, only robotech. Harmony gold is a cancer that just won't go away.
Why does this line feel so dead?
>>11820844It’s very strange, the pace of the line has become glacial and yet we get the most insanely obscure shit like >>11820773 that even AoZfags may not want just because there is some mold reuse.
>>11820773wtf is this?
>>11820773>>11820984>>11822418There isn't even mold reuse for this one. It's a totally new AoZ design they're picking. It's such a bizzare pull from AoZ. It's like if they decided to randomly do a Metal Build Methuss. Bandai makes some absolutely bizzare decisions sometimes. I don't even think this is a popular AoZ design. I don't think it even has a kit yet. There's some guy on the MRD team who just loves random AoZ suits.
>>11822439So theyre releasing a MRD asshimar? Thats... a weird choice.
>>11822439>I don't think it even has a kit yetJust a 1/200 scale one.
>>11822439>There's some guy on the MRD team who just loves random AoZ suits.I just want to shake that guy's hand. Him and the folks at Bandai Hobby that keep making AoZ kits.
meanwhile, Dunbine now gets as many RDs a year as the ANIME line.
>>11820773>>11822439>$270 on US P-BandaiFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
>>11824964It's pretty big
>>11825042>posed with the two AoZ figures 99% of people preordered and nothing elselel
