^I dunno, paying RM350 is too high since the price of the PG Wing is about the same as PG Strike. FYI, got someone in the Trade Zone selling ori PG Wing for RM480.

@liewpk: That's unfortunate. If they sell PGs, especially with their amazing prices, I think we can get em' for less than RM200. o.o

At any rate, anyone that wants to know about the TT Hongli HG 1/144 Dynames can take a peek here. =)

Just an update on Jln Raja Laut new stocks.

1st shop (finally remember to jot down the name, its Fu Yang) - TT Hongli GN Arms Type E + Exia (Trans Am mode) RM120, GN Arms Type D + Dynames RM140 (this is a new brand, 4 chinese characters). Another 2 HGs from the new brand.

2nd shop (Toy Box) - RX 93-2 Hi-V Fighter RM150, Unicorn RX05 RM94 (both TT).

3rd shop (Jia Yang) - nothing. Lady said boss placed orders, but don't know when stocks will arrive.
*
Those prices are before discount, right(1st shop specifically)? If so, after discount, the prices may seem really great. The Unicorn, especially, looks like it has a nice price going so far.

Yo, I was wondering if anyone got any pictures on hos Jia Yang looks like from outside. Thinking of going there sometime early next week (hope they open) while I'm going to KL later this week. Erm, there is a LRT station nearby the shop right?

Also, from what I read through the topic, I just say I got recommended through online forum to get the discount or do I have to say specifics?

Thanks. ^^

want to learn burmese, go hang out at chowrasta or wherever in Penang with lots of foreign workers  tongue.gif Just make sure its not vietnamese, cambodian or sawadeekap.
RX 178 Mk2 AEUG PG and Shin Musha SNJ MG has landed in M'sia  drool.gif . Unfortunately, not at Jia Yang  sad.gif Hope it won't take another year to arrive there.

Also, TT has created history. TT Sinanju more expensive than Bandai. 1 shop quoting RM299 (Bandai only RM249). Guess thats what happens when people starts to "goreng".
*
Yeah, saw them at Fu Yang yesterday when going to Chow Kit. Didn't ask price since I haven't went to Jia Yang. XP

Woah, TT Shinanju more expensive than Bandai one. ...cool. But it looks like I won't be buying it like that lah. @_@

Anyways, I managed to go to Jia Yang but the available Gunpla was really limited. It looked so little it might even seem like they might not restock them anytime soon (but I hope they will get new stuff soon...). Then again, I might only be able to go to KL next year by the earliest.
While there wasn't that many choices, I bought me HG Virtue, HG Throne Zwei, HG Tieren Space Commander, HG Destiny, MG Strike Noir (the ONLY MG there) and PG Wing Zero Custom (the ONLY PG there). Wished they had some other MGs though. Gonna build the PG first... my first PG. ^^
I actually wanted to go back to Fu Yang to get me the Strike Freedom FBM but I felt that I might not be able to stuff it in our luggage later so bleh (and the PG Wing took so much space in the end). x.x

Good haul also. Too bad you came at a time when Jia Yang hasn't restocked for a few months.

Post work in progress on your PG (you have a blog, right ?). Mine is still in box, so interested to see how it goes.
*
Will do. Hopefully can start tonight. See so many screws so far but doesn't seem all that hard... I hope. XP

^Hmm, I'm curious about that too. I don't recall ever seeing that kind of bootlegs before though. X/

Anyways, continue to celebrate New Year by building the TT PG Wing;

Okay, managed to finish the body of the Wing. Gah, it was rather PITA to do. Some parts really needed a lot of force to put in. Not impossible but annoying and frustrating.

I wasn't able to make the LEDs work out. However the LEDs DO work. If you want to make it work, make sure you have the right batteries and maybe some hot glue...

Aha, ya lo. Nonetheless, at least the hustle already past. Just hope the wings won't be much trouble. XP

Also, looks like I can use my action base for it though I don't know how it'll be when the wings are on. >.>

^By far, TT Hongli is the best. It comes quite close to the original. ^^

The extra finish Impulse looks quite nice for a bootleg but I don't really like the NG proportions though. XP

Anyways, if any one is curious, here is another bootleg review done. This is the 2nd completed out of the 6 I've bought from Jia Yang last month. ^^

Hmm, looks like Toy Box is the new highlight. I should pay them a visit the next time I get a chance to go to KL. Too bad about Jia Yang though... their prices are really nice... well, the year is still long, hope they will restock... soon-ish. ^^;

Ah, do you have the exact location of Toy Box?

Model GD PG Strike has a lot of problems. The one well known one is the broken fingers... you better avoid it at all costs. ^^;

Nice, Jia Yang got some new stocks in! ^^
Too bad I'm not going to be anywhere near KL for a while. I would really like to get my hands on that PG MKII and RX78-2. XD

BTW, if anyone is curious, I tried to apply the clear stickers and decals of the TT MG Strike Noir I got last December.
You can see/read that here.
