yesterday saw MG Crossbone Ver. Ka at Graffiti Toys BTS, priced about RM125..

can that be considered cheap, or that's the actual pricing for the CB Ver. Ka?

Haha.. I think u mistaken edi... Bandai is just a brand.. they can have many other types of mecha release from their brand.. Gundam is 1 type of mecha that they have.. in their production.

please go to http://www.bandai.com/ to see wat is it before start saying bandai = gundam..

quite cheaper than a few Rm's , but last time i saw at Time Machine for 120 during their clearing out promotion, since they are moving to Plaza Imbi i think. (4got the place name but its opposite Times square)

I see.. I only went around 5th floor, accompanying my friend to get his ReZEL C-Type.. also getting myself a Tamiya silver marker paint..

haven't got to the 7th floor..

agrreeeeee!!!!! X 10000000000000000000 % with u bro

like the title : "Gundam & Mecha Modelling Thread V17", any mecha or gundam still relevant ^^

a good way to gauge if a kit is 'cheap' or 'worth it' is thru conversion of yen price.
0.045 =expensive
0.037/.038= normal nowadays
0.034/.033= cheap
anything lower than .033= buy buy buy!!

where to find yen price? either dalong.net, hlj, or just the side of the box above the barcode.

look at yen price, take local price divide by it
example:
kit is 5000 yen, selling at RM 180
5000/180 =0.036

ok good?

ooo.. ok.. now i see.. haven't got around with this conversion thing.. looks like there's a lot more to learn other than just assembly

no need la, just buy.... see my siggy

dey, what i meant is, only Bandai can produce gundam. If u see gundam from other brands, it's pirated liao, cos they no has lesen.
from my understanding, even if another company edit/modify design and produce their own, it's still violation of copyrights.
so tht's why i think we shouldn't discuss more of the McModel liao.

ok? faham?

i tot u will faham if i say it's not bandai, but seems like i gotta spell it out for u also. D:

somehow AIRA on ur siggy attracts me more than the "buy buy buy...." thing.

last time i use to love Graffiti, they sell Gundam tepat2 yen 0.035 last time....now ni....sigh*
since yen nowadays is 0.037 (correct me if im wrong), its hard to find shop that sell below than the yen rate.
(last time i bought MG SF for Rm165 at Graffiti)

me got not much money.. need to get best bang for my buck

hahahaha... dun care la Bandai or Bundai or Bendai.. as long as good quality gundam I will love it...

^same goes for me la but ini tered for ori stuffs ma :|

i don't wan admin come delete this tered cos diskusi of pirated stuffs..

OK OK

just asking: anyone knows where or who should i look for if i wanna buy replacement parts for maybe a pg model? for example: the head armours of a strike?

locally? good luck......

if internationally,

try HLJ replacement parts service....

or GG infinite.......each part cost 2.50 USD+5 USD shipping

or you can get the whole runner, i forgot how, but there was this video on youtube showing.

be a neutral
harddisk mentioned that bandai=gundam + others
not bandai = gundam


sry if i see wrong

I don't think there would be any la.. I haven't seen any even for MGs and HGs..

i heard of that video but it's for japan use only. and upon checking...just for one part replacement may cost up to 400 yen and that's expensive @.@ asked hlj since they sounded like they sell the said spare parts...in the end...



...they say they don't provide spare parts for model kits =.= fml
