3rd recolor for a figure and you can order 6pc per account, even US can get it. I smell a flop. [Full disclosure: I can't predict the future.]

I already have the Red and White Astraea and both with option set, but black! I mean it's BLACK! It's also readily available on US p-bandai. Very exciting!

Bandai: "Here is a MB Astraea X army builder. You are supposed to get 3, I meant 10." I personally like the white & blue one with the add-on kit the most.

Black color in Bandai's storytelling experience screams a covert organization. Strike Noir for assassination squad. Black Astray Noir for an Italian assassin mercenary. I'm not surprised the manga squad in Bandai is assassinated by the Astraea X already. No backstory for you bro.

From what I can understand from the video narration, there is really not much story to Astraea Type-X that got revealed, other than some ambiguous dark/hidden history that link to its existence. But it did mention that this release is a kickoff of a new "Gundam 00 x Metal Build" project, whatever that may be.

So, should we expect every Tamashii Web Exclusive to be available on P-Bandai US going forward? If I were to guess, in general it seems like 00, Wing, and Seed are the ones that make it over here. Maybe IBO based on the Metal Robot Spirits releases.

Someone on another forum said that it was from the same radio? drama that the Exia Repair IV, Dynames Repair III is from, probably the antagonist suit? Can't verify that though.

I suspected that but I couldnt find any info (weird). I lost interested because I read somewhere it is a mass produced unit, so it lacks uniqueness (I know I'm weird)... anyway after thinking about it I'd rather go after the exia repair IV than this one...

Any difference with the 10th anniversary version compared to the initial release?

I think it's just the paint job. Also, more mecha from Eiyuden Wataru have been announced for the Metal Build treatment... According to MFC their names are Jyakomaru, Ryukomaru, and Byakkomaru. Attachments:

Correction: The 10th Anniv version is same as the Aile Strike Gundam but without including Aile Striker.
Aile Strike (L), 10th Anniv (R) There is a difference in tampo from the previous web exclusive Strike Gundam tamashii.jp/item/13011/It looks like for the photos they reused the shots but edited in the tampo from the Aile Strike version.

I feel like MB Wataru stuff deserves its own thread if it is getting more releases, just to keep the convo easier to follow. Oh it has a thread here robotjapan.proboards.com/thread/26092/ryujinmaru-metal-build

Okay, really glad I skipped the Anniversary version and went with the Astrea Type X after seeing that only thing I'm missing out on is a tampo marking on the skirt armor.
