I wanted to give this idea a go, we have a thread in the GD, Transformer and Video Game forum for this type of thread. This is a spot to post all of your latest Mecha. It can be anything from Gundam to Macross. I wil lstart us off.

I just ordered from BBTS:

Yamato 1/60th Shin's VF-0A with QF-2200D-B Ghost Booster from the series Macross Zero. It can be seen here.

Ah Noir. I still need to finish that kit. Maybe I'll finish it next week.

its quite a nice kit, perhaps one of the best SEED 1/144 kits and its posability is incredible, the only niggle is that the sword handles don't assemble properly on mine so ive had to cut bits out my self (and my thumb)
the choice of weapons on the Strike Noir is cool and the Beam pistols are great for a John Woo pose and the siloutte pack changes from wings to assault mode really easily.
all in all i'd give it a 7.5/10

1/144 HG Gundam SEED Kerberos BuCue Hound.

Got it at Space Oddity in Amsterdam. I asked for a discount because the box was smashed up so I got a €10 discount. The costed me with discount €15.

There is still one Kerberos BuCue left there with a box in even worse condition. You probably pay €15 for that too.

oi, both of my Calamity and Freedom boxes are dented on the corners... I should have asked for a discount as well.

Thanks for the great tip though, i'll likely be around there this week so i'll make sure to make a visit and try to get me a discounted BuCue

Thanks for the review Dough-bot, maybe we should create a thread for figure reviews like that. :-?

Dented? Roflol, no discount for that. Mine had a hole in the box a partially water damaged manual, some parts that were popped of the partrunner. :lol:

The one you will find is what I can describe best: smashed by a totem pole, but the totompole missed most of the kit parts.

Wow that sounds pretty serious. Did those kits survived a ship wreck or something? :lol:

"Most of the kitparts" if possible I'd like a kit that has all parts intact

The smashed bucue was apparantly already sold so I got me Akatsuki and GP-02 instead

You actually were insane to pay €32 for a HG 1/144 Akatsuki? :lol:

I have money.
Also, it's shiny. I can't let a shiny object like that on the shelves. Spoon likes shiny.

Now GTFO mortal.
