well, as u said, cheaper  tongue.gif
I used to use those, so I know
yes, they are cheap, but they don't stick well
so what I do is, the important edges where I need to mask away I use Tamiya ones, then the centre larger areas I use conventional masking tape
cost more, but save time and trouble  icon_rolleyes.gif

ic...so in the end, still depends on individual's masking skill...looks like i still noob at this...sigh, have to cut it into smaller pieces and continue with the tedious process. tongue.gif

buying from GG Infinite would be pretty much double shipping.. you have them ship to GG Inf then to you.. plus the price goes up from GG itself, so you're going to pay way more than if you buy them here.. i think some shops will have them on PO.. such as Gamers Arena.. prices are fair too
*
oh, gamers arena said that they will bring it in? oh if so, maybe other lowyat sellers will do so as well

found out one thing when i use enamel black to paint the panel line, actually using pen (Artline water based 0.05) also can achieve the same effect (for me, it has better control than using enamel paint)

just draw on the panel line and use cotton bud dip ABIT of enamel thinner then rub the excess off. Same result (for my case)
though i have wasted my money on buying the enamel black, sigh

not sure what you're trying to say but usually people will use pen@gundam marker first for panel lining. Enamel too time consuming whistling.gif
from what I understand, you're doing the hard way first laugh.gif
*
i actually did panel line using gundam marker but it was messy, then i bought a enamel black to do panel line, in the end, the result was not pleasant, as i'm getting frustrated, i used artline 0.05 which i bought recently to fix those lines, and then found out that it has better outcome compared to the enamel way. And it can be cleaned using enamel thinner as well laugh.gif So, for now, i think i stick to artline pen + enamel thinner

*ps: i found that enamel paint alre did some damage to my pieces due to its corrosive nature doh.gif

people usually buy from them through postage. Another thing is you will only get the kit in march laugh.gif
bts is pricier probably because of the shipping

maybe i'll just wait for other lowyat sellers to get the stock then i can compare which price is cheaper, since quite busy now with

wing proto zero....
hg unicorn....
mg sazabi ver ka...(maybe)

what's wrong with penang? They do provide delivery of your item(s) to your doorstep, if you're not aware  whistling.gif

nothing, as the item is around 1kg...i think the postage also quite pricey...so held back abit... laugh.gif

astray noir is a must buy for my case, really like the design, cant wait to paint it with candy coat purple drool.gif
just that have to get the best price (the one not deviate too much from the base price selling in jp) tongue.gif

and since i have other kits to busy with...so, not urgent for me, but if i see a good price then surely will get it first then put it back home for worshiping before actually do the paintjob on it few months later

D-y not that expensive, but i waiting for the seller who normally do free shipping if u know who i mean brows.gif

one thing as a reminder, this one is NOT mass-product, it's a Pandai limited kit. you wait, the price might get higher, or it will be more difficult to find later on...

yea, i know, if i'm not wrong, there were some online exclusives previously which became available publicly?

QUOTE(HxiiiK @ Jan 24 2014, 11:39 PM)
you should know who to ask for this whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif whistling.gif
will the one who can make this magic happen please show yourself tongue.gif

i'm keep an eye on his fb page, but highly unlikely that he can bring in the kit as this is online exclusive. (not sure if we are thinking of the same seller though)

so you would rather buy from A rm260 free shipping rather than B RM250 without ship?(if add, would be same with A)
this is not regular release anyway, grab it before too late
*
oh my, hard to decide like that, either wait for the best price to appear or just grab now. doh.gif

isn't it still up on pre-order for a newer batch? you can always check p-bandai website if you can still select a number.. only if the drop down menu doesn't let you select a number to purchase then he can't help

oh, went to p-bandai.jp, the item is still available to pre-order. laugh.gif

then he should be able to help you tongue.gif but you have to pay for the shipping, of course
then again it should still be slightly lower than 250

then have to wait for him to reply and hope that he can estimate the price. laugh.gif
