Anyone belives Bandai is stealing money from us raise your hands.... Burning a hole in my wallet is an understatement, more like punching a hole using pneumatic sledgehammer. Thas said what will we do without out kits.
With the wide range of prices being thrown about for kits... what would be a reasonable cost for: 1. PG Strike Rouge + Sky Grasper (how much in yen?) 2. PG GAT-X105 Strike Gundam (14,000yen) 3. PG MSZ-006 Z Gundam (20,000yen) 4. PG Wing Gundam Zero Custom (how much in Yen)
Dunno where to start bargaining oso. I see that the practice is to convert from prices in Japan. Does anyone know the Japanese prices for the Strike rouge and Wing Zero. Also has anyone seen these kits recently, which shop and at what prices.

QUOTE(VincC454 @ Feb 6 2007, 03:19 PM) cannot really said steal your money la.. you got a choice not to buy it also rite those repeat gundams.. they just try to do business Ok then what do you call, creating the need and the want for their product, then coming up with various grades so that u want to continue to get better versions, more articulation, more details.... then the icing on the cake.... overpricing for the few pieces of plastic.  The alternative is to go to a Gundam Rehabilitation program to get rid of the addiction. Anyone know where to sign up. In the mean time, any help with the PGs?... anyone, I need my fix.

QUOTE(StarGhazzer @ Feb 6 2007, 03:45 PM) Well, you could bank in all your money into my account so that you won't have any to spend on gundams  Good one there. Here is another suggestion, everytime you buy a kit.... get 2 instead. Send the extra one to me, so I dun have to spend any money. I have to agree with nlik. Ask yourself, what made u move from normal grade to HG then to MG? How much detail is enough detail? How much articulation is enough articulation? You see what makes a modeller stop at a particular grade may not be the same for another. I dun have any PGs yet, gatallah. After seeing the PG reviews, I am sure you must have felt your loins move.... even for an instant. Must see what all the fuss is about. But one thing is for sure... the price beh tahan.

QUOTE(VincC454 @ Feb 6 2007, 04:26 PM) yea..so what you wanna upset for? its your money and you can always choose not to buy those upgrade or anything icing as you mention up there mah.. if you are addicted to them..then no choice have to keep on buying them lo..no matter how many version bandai release it.. gundam belong to bandai..so they can release whatever version gundam they want..japanese also never complaint about how many version of the same gundam bandai release.. Cool down bro, I am just having some fun playacting the love/hate relationship that almost all of us have. I am not upset. Sit back and have a few laughs, makes the day pass faster, so that we can go home fix up the kits! BTW, I am sure the Japanese as well as all Gundam fans complain. If we get another version of the RX-78 for the 100th MG version.... some will celebrate but most will complain unless the kit breaks new ground. Life is like datlah. Peace bro.

To avoid scratching the paint on your kit..... dun play play with it all the time. Gatal, gatal go and change pose... sure paint will come off.

Referring to PG Strike talk a few pages back, as far as I know you had to buy the PG strike and the PG skygrasper seperately. The other option is to get the strike rouge which comes with the skygrasper. Two days ago, I just casually strolled into a shop and to my surprise I found this.
The store owner wanted a cool RM1000.00 for it coz it was supposed to be special edition. Manufacturing date is 2006. Apologies if this is a repost... but it was certaily a surprise for me. Must be a show/exhibition edition. I wonder how many types of these special one off editions there are out there? I did not buy coz can get the PG Strike and skygrasper seperately for under RM650.00.

To all Gundam kaki please help,
I am asking on behalf of a friend and also myself. Where can I find the MG Strike Freedom Full Burst Mode in KL/Klang Valley. I.e. the box is on the shelf and not some vapourware preorder groupbuy thingie. And what is the price?
If you are going to visit your favorite shop in the next few days, please keep an eye out for it. I'd really appreciate it.
Please refrain from commenting that this kit is bling and not worth the markup of the standard MG kit.
Thanks in advance.
