Only the Leo and Aries, and some special versions of those (Aries Noin colours, Leo space type in green and purple, flight type in green and blue).

[Sigma Magnus]

Wow, how much are you spending on all those?

...and speaking of spending money, uh...help?

[ZeroWolf]

Premium Bandai... That's your answer to why its so expensive

[Sigma Magnus]

Yeah...I checked the P-Bandai site itself too, it's out of stock there. Ebay's prices are even worse. Any idea where I could get the kit for a mildly less unfair price?

[ZeroWolf]

Hmm What other sites you checked?

[Sigma Magnus]

Amazon, Ebay, P-Bandai. Don't really know where else to look...

[Sigma Magnus]

Alright, checked HLJ, Ami Ami, HobbySearch, Mandarake...all either don't have it or are sold out.

That kit is a thing of beauty.

It really is and I want it so much but I can't find it without spending way too much

This will likely be my final post on Seibertron. It's been fun. If you guys wanna keep in touch, see my signature.

[ZeroWolf]

Everything okay? If you don't mind tweets about writing then I may follow you on twitter take care

[wilcosu35]

Got some more stuff in

[ZeroWolf]

Very nice haul again Freedom (and strike) was the only suit design I liked from the main series Seed, I just never gelled with the series.

A week or so ago I went to a convention and nabbed my second ever Gunpla- the HGUC MSV Black Tri-Stars Zaku!

I have a Miss Sazabi too which I need to clean up and paint...

[ZeroWolf]

Nice score black hat! I need to go on a gunpla binge but that will probably be in the new year now.

[Sigma Magnus]

Okay, this is probably definitely maybe my last post here. Just wanted to pop back in real quick to say...



...grail acquired.

EDIT: ...or rather, it would be if it weren't for shipping costs. I was so close...!!

You know, you could just unsubscribe to the rest of your threads and visit just for this thread

And inform me, what is this grail? give me some info on it?

...okay, fair enough.

And inform me, what is this grail? give me some info on it?

Gladly!





Alright, so, this is the Gundam Amazing Exia (the HG kit specifically), piloted by Meijin Kawaguchi III toward the end of Gundam Build Fighters, and is one of my absolute favorite Gundam designs (alongside the Amazing Strike Freedom and a few others). Unfortunately, the Amazing Exia only appeared in its completed form, as seen in those above images, for a few moments in the show. It saw plenty of screen time, but was mostly seen in an incomplete form, damaged, or corrupted.



The corrupted form, the Exia Dark Matter, gets much more love, but I personally prefer the Amazing.



Now this here is the grail I've been after. The P-Bandai exclusive Master Grade 1/100 Amazing Exia kit. Thanks to that exclusive status, I've only been able to find it for about $120. I thought I finally found a good price on Madarake, but the shipping cost ended up being almost $50. I was so close...

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Yay, minor victories for continued Gundam! I still read everything, even if I don't comment much.

Hmm, so it was only seen very briefly in ultimate mode, but mostly in an evil mode? How does one corrupt a Gundam?

Well, this was in Build Fighters, so it wouldn't apply to your standard Gundams, but in this case all they really had to do was brainwash the pilot and give their machine an evil makeover.

Hmm, interesting! corruption of the good and whole is always fun! Pacific Rim showed me that recently, and giant robots are always fun, especially when turned bad

[ZeroWolf]

I love that design so much, I'm also soft towards Kamfpher Amazing but then, I love the original version as well ahh 0080, I'll need to watch that again at some point
