Hey, just so you know: I ordered some kits from hobbylink and I live in New Brunswick, Canada (east coast). I used the slowest shipping possible and it took exactly 3 weeks to arrive in my mailbox! I thought that was pretty fast shipping! I guess Japan's mail is in good working order.
Haha, trimming down those pegs would be really difficult! Those things look HUGE!
Also, as a quick question, how does this plastic compare to their Gundam model kits' plastic? Is it weaker, stronger, or about the same plastic, just on a much larger scale?
A good tip is to remove some of the sticking on one side/tip with your fingers. Then place it down and it can move around in the plastic. Not too lose or not impossible to move. So you can get it into the right place :)
Not exactly what I'd build, but nice to get a change of pace from seeing robots every week. It would be nice if you guys did a Kamen Rider figure on Gunpla TV.
I'm buying mine - in a month and a half ^^

I do recommend not to handle stickers with the fingers, glue side that is. This decreases the chance over time for stickers to become loose.
