beware of the bandai dvds! i had to buy gundam wing (2 box sets of 5 disks) twice both sets have given me issues ine disk broke in half the second time i tried to remove it from the box
@jayko657 only way i can say its bandais fault is shoty quality control when you handle your disks with care push down on the center like you should and it comes out easily but with a huge crack in it that kinda ruins your mood especially when its the first time you open the package not to mention the disks had a reading issue no matter what dvd player i put them in they wouldnt play i contacted bandai and they wouldnt help bought them again no breaking but wont play on all players
Two great kits, I'm eagerly awaiting the delivery of the MG HeavyArms and can't wait to start painting those missiles.
Awesome progress on FA Unicorn, looking forward to seeing how the final scheme comes together. Its just a pity Bandai haven't returned to releasing water slides sets for their new MG's, particularly as the Unicorn has significant number of stickers and dry transfers to apply (both of which I particularly dislike working with).
Can't wait for mine to come, it's in the mail now, can't wait for your review on heavy arms, do you think they'll release a nataku mg? I thought about taking the mg shenlong and a hg nataku to make one
@macro312 Use google. It takes far less time to type "tatsu hobby" or "hlj" into google than it takes to be a dick on youtube. If you can't find the kit on your own I strain to think out how you'd ever build it.
@macro312 Dude, you don't need help. You have everything you need right in front of you. I'm not trying to be an ass, but seriously. You are given the name of the site. All you need to do is type in the name with ".com" at the end, but instead you will spend days insisting someone needs to give you a link on youtube?
Lol I just got Banshee today too...well both of them, my bro ordered the normal Unicorn in both modes so we just got all 4 today, gonna do a fun dual build hehe
@vegeta8259 I'm guessing you're probably not going to get the MG Banshee. After all it's just a recolor with a few extra accessories. Plus the fact you have enough Unicorn MGs already XD
just wondering why not preorder from US Gundam model stores? The shipping is way cheaper them HLJ and I know US gets new gundam release 3-4 weeks later. but i cann't see spending $25-$45 dollor on shipping are one gundam kit. hope i'm not sounding mean or anything just wondering why thats all. love the reviews and WIP videos. yes it's awesome they releasing some Gundam DVDs before Bandai 100% not all north america anime sales/support.
@vegeta8259 How do you get those prices? Every HLJ quotes i have received are WAY higher... I have never ordered from them since their shipping is nuts.
@enderwiggen100 I've never really had any problems requiring customer support, so I can't really say. But anyway, I really like HLJ. I've never had any serious problems with them, and their prices are reasonable since they started offering permanent discounts on products and shipping. I think most of the bad press they get is mostly people who have one bad experience and then blow it out of proportion and claim the entire site is crap.
@vegeta8259 yea they have good prices just need to actually work on a shipping calculator =\ and really only order from them if im ordering several things cuz then the 20$ shipping would be worth it, fast and many things
@crosly It's what is of value to you and where you want to use the money you earn. For me, I don't smoke or drink alcohol, that saves a lot of money for hobbies like gunpla.
@vegeta8259 You finally got the MG Heavyarms EW, eh? Cool... 2 boxes but the cost cutting by cramming the DVD's into 1 case... eh~ The HG Unicorn Banshee Destroy Mode is still semi new. =) I like that efficient packaging that Tatsu Hobby used...
but i preordered the MG already, anyway. and i ordered the DC hobby SD unicorn which prime92 recently unboxed to mod it into the banshee [final battle] version. it comes with both a green and a red runner of psycho frame pieces, might as will put it to good use and it should be a fun project! will be the first time that i actually mod a model and since its just the v-fin it shouldnt be too difficult.
the heavyarms, what a surprise! ;D everyone seems to buy that guy... but im holding off on it until they release the kai version! i like that version better and i simply refuse to pay twice for what is essentially the same model. all kai and upgraded suits will have to do for me.
and about the banshee: i wouldnt be surprised if they hold the HG back until the MG is released to push the sales a little :P in fact at HLJ it WILL be back in stock in march when the MG comes out^^
