Loots & Purchases 17

It's been 3 months since I last purchased any gunpla kits, and now... behold, my first splurge of the year!

List:
TT/GG PG 1/60 Wing Gundam Zero Custom
GoGo MG 1/100 Hi-Nu Gundam Evo

Mcmodel HG 1/144 HWS Nu Gundoom

Daban MG 1/100 Astray Red Frame Kai

Daban MG 1/100 Epyon Gundam

BTF 1/100 GN Sword IV Full Saber

Tamiya Pla-plate set

Mr. Hobby Mr. Masking Sol R

I bought the PG Wing, MG Hi-Nu Evo & MG Epyon from Taobao, while the others were bought from local sellers. I've been searching for the normal TT/GG PG Wing for quite some time, and there is only the Pearl Coating version available everywhere as China stopped production of the normal version at that time. Recently they have started reproducing it again, so I quickly grabbed it before it become scarce again ^_^v. Good news is TT/GG PG RX-178 Mk-II both AEUG & Titans versions are also being reproduced, so grab it while you can!

The MG Hi-Nu Evo is finally released! I mentioned in a post few months back about China is making a snap-fit plastic kit out of a Hi-Nu resin conversion kit, now finally released, and the results is an awesome looking kit! I bought the 1/100 GN Sword IV Full Saber though I don't have a MG 00 Qan[T] yet. The reason is that this kit is a limited release, so I better grab it now than regret later XD. If you didn't already know, Daban is a new China bootleg company that just started business recently, releasing  MG Astray Red Frame Kai as their first bootleg kit, and the second kit being MG Epyon. On a side note, Dragon Momoko is releasing MG Epyon too, but with add-on clear-orange parts for the heat rod. I can't seem to find any Taobao seller which have Mcmodel HWS Gundoom in stock, so I have no choice but to get from a local seller(last unit to boot) at a higher price =(. Lesson learned for not buying a Mcmodel kit when it's just released. 

I also bought a few decals from Samueldecals again.

List:
RG Freedom Gundam decals

MG Zeta Plus decals Ver. 1

MG Zeta Plus decals Ver. 2

Oh yeah, means I finally can make a move on my previous backlogs, though new backlogs are added lololol. WIP of MG Strike Freedom coming soon!

Loots & Purchases 16

Ordered a few decals, now I can finally start other projects~
(after I finished my MG Strike E & MG Strike Freedom, that is lol)

List:
Gundam Decal 20 - MG Zeta Gundam 2.0 (RM20)
Gundam Decal 60 - MG RX-78-2 2.0 Real Type Color (RM20)
Gundam Decal 70 - MG G-Armor (RM20)

I ordered from AF-Hobby with Skynet postage RM8, so total RM68 spent. The price is slightly higher than market price, and with postage this purchase is indeed expensive. However Bandai's decals are rare with hardly any shops selling them. Even if the shop do sell, they don't have much choices, not to mention these 3 I'm looking for is especially scarce. So I have no choice but to pay the extra =(.

Loots From 2011 Mid-year BAKUC @ MIECC

Been quite busy so can't blog much, looks like I'm gonna skip the WIP Part 2 for Hi-Nu Gundoom, or just minimise it.
Today's post is about my loot from 2011 Mid-year Bandai Action Kits Universal Cup(BAKUC) event held at Malaysia International Exhibition & Convention Centre(MIECC) @ The Mines.
Litt Tak, the distributor for Bandai products in Malaysia, took this chance to have a small warehouse sales during this event, and here are what I bought from there:

*Definitely not bought MG 00 Qan[T], it's just the paper bags containing my purchases XP
Quite nice designs on the bags, going to store it nicely =D

Here's what's inside...


List:
MG MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam 2.0 (RM165)
HG MSN-04 Sazabi GPB Color (RM150)

The purpose of me going there today is to buy a second unit of MG ReZEL Commander Type, because I've been informed that it is selling for RM135 only!
Originally I've decided not to go, as MIECC is not near to my house and not very convenient to go there, but this awesome price changed my mind!
However, after going all the way there, lost the way a bit in between, frustratingly searched for parking, finding the way to the exhibition hall, looking around for ReZEL Commander Type......
Found the last unit on sale, and you know what? The price tag shows RM165!
I thought it may be a typo, so I asked a staff, and to my dismay, he told me that was the true price!
I interrogated further that I was told it was RM135, and the staff told me that yesterday's price of RM135 was a typo, those who bought it yesterday were lucky!!!
CAN YOU IMAGINE MY RAGE?!?!
How irony that I thought RM165 price was a typo but in fact actually is the RM135 price that was a typo!

Damn I was so pissed off, I passed up on buying the kit although it was still cheaper than usual price, but I don't want to went all the way there just to leave empty handed, so I choosed the MG Zeta 2.0.

In forum(lowyat.net), members were saying how awesome the white Sazabi was, and it's a limited event only edition, but I didn't want to buy due to it's a HG kit(an expensive one too).
But I saw the assembled kit on display at BAKUC and I immediately decided to buy it, because of the large size of Sazabi for a HG kit, and the white colour is awesomely cool! Felt like a guardian knight xD

I didn't have time to post some of my purchases last week from Berjaya Times Square:


List:
RG GAT-X105 Aile Strike Gundam (RM90)
Mr. Super Clear Flat (RM39)
Mr. Super Clear Gloss (RM39)

Hell I'm so regretting buying the RG Aile Strike, because it was on sale at the warehouse sale for RM80 only! Bundled free with Action Base 3 some more!

EDIT: I misunderstood sbout the RG Aile Strike promo, it is not bundled with Action Base 3. The promo is if you buy RG Aile Strike + Action Base 3, you'll get a free 3D RG Aile Strike postcard. Sorry for any misunderstanding caused.

Kinda lots of disappointment today, not to mention burnt a hole in my wallet >_<

That's it for this post, kinda long winded, LOL
