I have yet to build my mini-pla Megazord, and I know that kit got some grief for crappy stickers and iffy plastic but I saw this and pre-ordered it anyways: Mini-pla Voltron/Go-Lion.

What's the longest wait you folks have had to wait for a kit to arrive? It's been over a month since I ordered my White Ogre and I'm almost concerned.

IBO weapons set 1 arrived this morning. The mobile worker is so tiny. The Barbatos gun is so big.

Is gundamplanet ok to order from? I see they have some kits cheaper than amazon, but never had any experience with them.

I've got an action base in the wind. Should probably check how long it's been, I've ordered and received a fair few things since then.

"hmm I don't understand tubing yet I think I'll skip it, a cursory google review says that the tubing gets covered up" *finishes leg skeleton, goes to laptop after getting breakfast, idly looks up the kit on dalong* ... The tubing I actually did gets covered up, the tubing I skipped IS EXPOSED

I got my Haropla in the mail today. It is adorably teeny  .Also the base is a puzzle-piece kind that can snap in with the Petit'Gguy ones and contain the limbs should you not want them extended  .

Banzaihobby to Australia via sea freight took about 2 1/2 months (It was Psycho Zaku ver ka and an assortment of other things and shipping for that was starting to get pricey.) When I got the PG Exia I sprung for the fastest method and it was at my door in three days.

Romes128 posted:Is gundamplanet ok to order from? I see they have some kits cheaper than amazon, but never had any experience with them. I've ordered a lot of kits from them, they've been great. Prompt shipping, sturdy boxes with bubble-wrapped contents, and shipping manifests that have obviously been double-checked by a human. The closest thing I've had to an issue with them is that sometimes they'll stick something small (like an LED kit) inside an MG box, with an accompanying note on the manifest.

Yeah, I can see getting that with the cheapest shipping, it's already an expensive kit. My White Ogre was ordered through amazon from Juness Japan Shop, and while I'm not worried about it not arriving - if it doesn't arrive I get a refund and reorder from someone else - but typically I get 2-4 weeks delivery from Japan, and having it exceed that is unusual. Fortunately my RG kit arrived, so I'm building instead of waiting impatiently for both kits!

Blackchamber posted:I have yet to build my mini-pla Megazord, and I know that kit got some grief for crappy stickers and iffy plastic but I saw this and pre-ordered it anyways: I am definitely buying this when it comes out, but I'll probably wait til the local shop gets it in. This looks pretty cool in color, I'm tentatively excited to drop $60 on it. Romes128 posted:Is gundamplanet ok to order from? I see they have some kits cheaper than amazon, but never had any experience with them. I've ordered plenty from them and they're good. They easily have the best site for browsing gunpla I've found - they seem to actually categorize their products so it's easy to filter and search. Unheard of, apparently. I've moved a lot of my shopping to USA Gundam Store - it's not as nice of a site, but they're closer so I get better shipping speeds from them, and they keep sending discount codes which makes the prices really good.

I can vouch for Gundamplanet; they're pretty cool nerds who are all college kids/recent grads that operate in New Jersey. They recently had to stop offering free shipping within NJ but they still offer pretty solid prices. If you live/visit the area you should stop by their place for a visit, their warehouse doubles as a barebones store that often offers better prices than the site itself. Also offline and online they participate in the "buy X HG's get this exclusive option set" promo which is nice.

Goddamn trying to kitbash the Miss Sazabi is hard. I got some sick legs off the Zee Zulu but finding a decent big bulky arm/shoulder replacement without cannibalizing one of the kits I actually wanna straight build ain't easy.

So another (possible) mass release P-bandai was announced apparently, the MG Gundam Avalanche Exia Dash https://www.usagundamstore.com/collections/new/products/pre-order-mg-1-100-gundam-avalanche-exia-dash   USAGundam is the only place Im seeing a listing at right now, they might have put it up early or Im just bad at finding things. asterioth fucked around with this message at 01:32 on May 10, 2018 |
