Now, slap BANDAI logos on it, and price would go insane...LOL BANDAI DX METAL BUILD AILE STRIKE bla..bla..bla...29,000 Yen exclude tax. I would say something more like 42,000 yen if it were Bandai... LOL.... 42,000 Yen. With those LED gimmick, surely will reach that number. Third party manufacturer surpass BANDAI on this one! IMO 1/72 scale (27 cm) for Gundam, is perfect! not too small like Metal Build or too big like Perfect Grade.

Yes, I absolutely agree...the main reason I don't build that many 1/144 kits is that they are just too small for old eyes, haha. The MB 1/100 size is decent, but I think 1/72 is actually perfect in many ways...

Wonder if they're going to do the 5 suites from Seed in 1/72. Buster seems cool and all but holy crap I got so much stuff I need to drop money on my wallet is weeping.

The first prototype photos of both Buster and that medieval looking Destiny originated from MoShow/Warrior Toys account, then got switched. They are just wanting to avoid bad things happening like last time...although I’d stillborn wait and see how quality control is.

Just got the Poison Toys Sword and Launcher Packs in the mail today...Since most aspects were covered in the Youtube video posted earlier in the thread, I'll just give some of my impressions. As you can see from the box photos, size is very similar to the Aile Strike box, as is the fonts/caution wording on the back. Plastic tray holding the parts is also very heavy gauge, just like the ones covering the Aile Strike, so definitely some similarities. The mold for the tray really clamps all the parts in, so you may want to push things out from behind to avoid damaging any parts, but I like it...things don't rattle or fall out of alignment when you try to put things back. Quality control is great, I didn't notice any paint apps that were bad or misaligned tampo printing...so quality is definitely up to par with Mo Show. One main difference I notice between the Aile Strike main body and these packs, is the treatment of the panel lines: on the Aile Strike they are colored in black, while on the expansion packs they are left blank. So those of you willing or prefer the more line-heavy look can probably go in and panel line the parts, especially on the Launcher. Otherwise detail and paint apps are all very very good. Launcher is a gigantic since it is taller than the main body itself which is already quite large, but relatively light for its size. The double sword hilt has the metal handle and is ridiculously large and heavy; I can pretty much hold it like a large dagger when the handle is fully pulled out. For those curious, I was unable to get the Perfect Strike configuration to work...the holes on the old Aile Strike backpack are smaller (and too shallow, with probably plastic walls that are too thin to hold properly anyways) than the post for the metal arm of the Launcher, as well as the sword hilts. So I guess the pictures shown in previous posts were user modified to make the attachment holes larger, out of the box it does not support Perfect Strike. It's super cramped back there anyways, and you'll have stuff running into each other so I doubt you'd be able to do much of a pose...so I prefer to display these two packs on their own, separate from the Aile Flight pack. It was mentioned above, but probably that when sliding the Aile Flight pack to expose those holes, you don't want to go too far or you risk separating the wires for the LEDs...mine doesn't slide as far as some of the other pictures I've seen, and I can feel the resistance of wiring pulling on the inside, so YMMV. I think it's decent value ($50 each with shipping), but if you can get it locally at it's original price for about $35 USD each then it's a no-brainer. Let me know if you guys have any other questions.

@ leeboo1211 Is it possible to purchase separate set? or its consists of two strike packs for every purchase? Great review, anyway. If Poison quality product is on par with Mo Show, I didn't have to worry with Buster then...LOL And if anything goes smooth as planned, perhaps we could get complete SEED MS in 2 or 3 years...

I do hope the weapon leds don't require wires though that would be annoying.

WOW, that was quick! leeboo1211 Any experience with this site? Really tempting, but my retailer didn't post anything about this. hmm.. I think I just wait a little while, until further announcement from my retailer.
