but atleast building an RG kit gives me a great idea on applying metallic color, like silver and gold on those tiny 'gap' on other model kit. For example, the small little round whole on armor plate, or those small little gap appear at the cross of 2 panel line.

I have to agree with bandai on this one. Repaint version of this two version I doubt would be popular with people
from what I see so far, most gunpla online exclusive are just repaint with some small add on sweat.gif

although i question the move of making so many things exclusive.. i really don't get why they don't just make it a regular release.. they would still sell, EXCEPT MORE, since it will be in other countries too.. fans would not be mad, and they would still earn

like the crossbone X-2.. surely they had to make a new mold for the shot lance, and clearly fans were screaming for an X-2.. but there they go making it exclusive.. i don't get it at all.. why the exclusivity doh.gif they'd definitely earn less

as for repaint versions.. let's just say... Zaku II, Char's, Black Tri Star, J.Ridden, etc etc

I believe their production line does not have the capacity to roll out so many unit per time.. Maybe they make it exclusive
as in produce in a small quantity that will not affect their main operation line where newer kits are rolling out constantly +
it give something exclusive to make those loyal customers feel special in japan when they have that extra parts or kit that
differentiate themselves from the crowd who have common kits without those parts. Just my thought..

okay the first part seems reasonable.. but i thought bandai's production line would have a bigger capacity hmm.gif

as for the second part, i'm not convinced.. bandai has a huge fanbase outside of japan as well, and they're definitely losing out by not catering to them as much as those in japan

tongue.gif if they produced too much it wouldn't be exclusive anymore.. maybe its the nationalist thing that they appraise their
own native hobbyist first and make them feel good or
a marketing strategy to make overseas hobbyist pay more by acting as a 3rd party suppliers to
sell U and Me at extra premium price overseas..and when their native fan see us pay so much make them more happy tongue.gif
my statement are just speculation and not based on truth.. if its me I think I might do it.. tongue.gif

but the thing is, little of the overseas hobbyists' payments of that premium price goes to bandai, i believe? i would think they earn pretty much the same, a lot of the premium prices are because of shipping and handling, middle men, etc.?

I like the Jesta also, and I'm also waiting for the cannon version, but....
somehow I believe Pandai will make them exclusive again, by following the trend.
exclusive this, exclusive that...DUH!!!

Don't think it will affect them Pandai much since the funnels being exclusive and limited. All the POs have been shipped and delivered weeks ago.
Had 'they' announced the news much earlier, then I believe it will have a HUGE impact on the Pandai's funnels sales.
