i think he show the runner along with the LED (also along with straight build QanT?), maybe really got include LED
or perhaps just a mock up (like pop in gesture only, NG grade style) maybe still need to buy the freaking LED seperately

Hi, I heard from Aunty Lenny that the price is going to increase by end of this year where Sirim takes over the control of toys.. So if wanna get the Limited Edition better get now.. or price will be increase Sad news for us.

Isn't Sirim already take over the control of toys half year ago ? Transformers, Spiderman, Iron man and other stuff all increase the price already...

It's Bandai, dude. There's no reason for a surprise inclusion of the LED when it would be a major selling point. LED is still sold separately, just like GN-X, until they actually announce otherwise.

Worry not! So far, SIRIM only applies for importers and local manufacturers. So, this means tho get a better pricee we'll just have to resort to buying those which are not brought in by Litt Tak(for West Malaysia) or buy online.
Though, I really wonder if Gunpla will be categorized under toys cause even now they are putting the "This is a fine scale model for collecters" sticker. Perhaps it's to avoid the SIRIM check for toys?

i thought they already went to the meeting with the higher ups about this?? aunt lenny said that the meeting was held on July ( which has already happened, & also after the meeting, model kits start to have those "this is not a toy" sticker)
correct me if im wrong

y tax on toy ??

i think i saw "this is not a toy" on the MG DS. EW box.. mann.. i hope they dont increase the price again.. last time i bought FBM and EBM 210 each.. now crazy high.. ==

figuring wanted to paint a not

im really confused now
see the catalog there have LED model picture...
lights shooting out from chest...

I think its only reflection.

gaiachronicler : its already mentioned that the LED is sold separately, for display purpose of course they put in the LED gimmick.

sial mia marketing gimmick.........

well, yen rate today is 0.038.. Exia IM is at 5,800 yen -> rm 220, ebm and sinanju are 7,000 yen kits -> rm 268. the medal is a free gift, so that shouldn't make any difference to the pricing. that's about the right pricing for the kits.. its not the tax or whatever, but the exchange rate skyrocketing.

Like I've said before the 00Q on display may not be the normal edition(as they've stated that LED is sold separately). Eg, (here I go again) Exia Ignition Mode. Like the picture below,

Bandai clearly never stated anything about the transparent sticks or GN Ring in their promo poster for the MG 00Q so, it would not be wrong to assume that there is more than one version of MG 00Q.
Anyway, doesn't Bandai always put a small notice on the bottom of their display saying LED sold separately?

doesn't the poster said that the LED sold separately?

why does bandai want to sell the LED separately? what so special about 00Q MG led?

Bandai also sold GN-X red LED separately. I would guess this is to save cost manufacturing the LED units. Perhaps more people bought the normal version of Exia rather than Exia IM?

bandai got sell the red light led for gn-x kah? never know about it ... if got i sure buy 1 for my gn-x n no need go buy a exia trans-am mode ...

never understood why people put importance in the led. you're not gonna leave it on whilst in display are you?
