>>11866099>by 1 second
>>11866268so is this the "good" thread then?
I'm kinda interested in the new absolute act line. If it's not obscenely expensive it could be a nice line
Got some stuff directly from those wackos at Augusta labs
>>11866449The Banshee is an absolute beauty with that deep dark blue metallic color, the shade greatly varies depending on the lightThe gold plated horn and mask make a great contrast
>>11866451Whoever painted this probably was a Titans fan as the dark blue / yellow really reminds me of them, although in the ovas it is black
>>11866453The fully integrated weapons in the arms are a very odd choice, even more so when they give you the standard Unicorn loadout so equipping everything is possible but looks weirdThe figure itself is also kinda finnicky as the sliding panels and armor parts keep moving in either modeThe articulation is the weakest point by far, single joint elbows and knees? Right from the stone ageBut hey, this is for purely looking sexy and won't have the horrid yellowing issue
I preordered the Meteor. Worst case I can sell it later I guess. Not sure if the old Freedom works with it.
>>11866478>Not sure if the old Freedom works with it.They had an image advertising that it does. Every single SEED MB barring the Providence(as far as we know at least) is compatible with it.
>>11866546That's the more recent one. But I don't see why it wouldn't work with the old one. Molds are different but the size is roughly the same
>>11866546>>11866561I actually found a list here: https://tamashiiweb.com/item/16006/?wovn=enBasically, everything you'd expect it works with, including the 1.0 Freedom.
>>11866268I was going to suggest moving to the other thread since I typo'd the OP but I guess people still found it.
>>11866546>chang already released a 1/100 zeus silhouette with more gimmicks and way cheaperI seriously don't get how bandai thinks this is worth 88k yen
>>11866851Whale farming
>>11866851All those super expensive Nu and Sazabi releases aimed at old men who watched CCA.This is just Bandai moving that focus onto Seedfags.
Does anyone own the Snow Sparkle Freedom? I'm conflicted about which one I should get. Really I like the white coloring of the original but I feel like it wouldn't match well with the super detailed Meteor. If this image is correct, it seems like the Snow Sparkle version is the one that's closer to the white coloring? Just curious what people think.
>>11866933Get whichever one's cheaper.
>>11866947The OG Freedom is the cheapest, but I'm not worried about the cost. I want it to look good.
>>11866933The original(non snow) isnt white btw its blue tinted as hell and very aparently in person
>>11866561look closely at the front skirts, shoulders and wing markings. that's the MB Freedom 1.0
>>11866933I've been conflicted on this too. Overall I think the Snow Sparkle looks better. But I like the gold vents on the OG version/ But the Snow Sparkle just pops way more.
>>11867123Where is that pic>>11866546 even from? I watched the announcement video again and only see MB freedom concept 2 being used in different angles, and I can't find that one angle from the pic. I tried reverse searching the picture but the only relevant result was a facebook post that ended up being the video with no trace of the pic
>>11867008Yes that's why I was looking at the snow one.
>>11867365Get the snow one than. My friend has it but i personally love concept 2 og more so i dont regret buying it during release. If youre remotely conflicted spend the extra on snow because atleast you know it is safe (color wise).
What time do Bandai pre-orders normally start again? Haven't ordered anything in a while but that VF-1J is tempting me, it's about 4-5 hours from now right?
GUYS?
>>11867580oh shit
>>11867580holy shit they’re actually doing it I was wondering why they were rereleasing all the fucking aquatic suits and nothing else
>>11867146It was in the announcement vid. It's not an image that people post a lot and it's not as advertised as much by Bandai, which makes sense, they want you to buy a C2 Freedom.https://youtu.be/pnwWQ1hmrf0?t=3746
>>11868234I was watching this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abfpus82ofM they made sure the og freedom doesn't appear beyond the seed MB timeline kek
>>11867580*the boys are back in town- the boys are back in town!*
Ordered 3 Acguys, I have a question though. Can you make it so your Acguy has two iron nails and another two missile pod arms? I believe the extended arm piece can be used with either arm, but I'm not sure if the tip of the arms can both be swapped.
>>11868403They can be swapped.
>>11868409Thank you!
>>11868411Lewd
>>11868403>Ordered 3 AcguysThat's why they sold out already
>HD Zwarth randomly pops up for US retail preorder weeks after going up as a p-Bandai japan exclusive well fuck you too Bandai, would have been nice to know in June
how is this fig in your opinion? worth $100?
>>11870250those AC figures really missed the point by not including any effect parts for the coral weapons so nah
MS-06J Zaku Marshland Combat ver. A.N.I.M.E. for the MS Museum line
>>11870524or *Wetlands
>>11870525
>>11870482I'm not into effect parts, I mostly care about figure quality itself. I hear it has diecast in some parts, is it metal on metal joints that get floppy? heavy limbs?
>>11870527its a cool paintjob but I'm gonna pass on a $120 zaku
>>11870531the first one they released for Ayre does not even turn into the MA modeimo, those were just quick cashgrabs, not really worth it with how much they are missing if you are an AC6 fan
>>11870560>$120Guess I'll pass on a second one myself. Wouldn't want the base anyway
>>11870531also, that red one, the rifle is too big so it sags down the arm if fully extended
>>11867580DON'T MOCK THE ZOCK
Anyone know what Good Smile Moderoid's are like?I haven't even seen this anime but I love the look of this guy.
>>11872769they are model kits, some have prepainted parts but otherwise they’re nothing special as far as kits go, their main claim to fame is a lot of licenses no one else is making
>>11872769I have their ED209 and Robocain. You need to put in a little extra effort to paint/weather some parts but they're solid, plastic quality is slightly lower than Bandai but not noticeable. I imagine this wouldn't be an issue with simpler designs like Tetsujin though.
