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. Yeah I've bought a lot of stuff from New Gundam Central, they are legit though since their prices include shipping sometimes it takes 2-3 weeks for things to arrive and the shipping doesn't update until the package arrives in the destination country. They also pack well with plastic corners. |

Bought 2 copies of the MG 00 Raiser from them. No hassle or anything and came to the US in about 11 days which is pretty good for free shipping.

It seems they (Poison/ MoShow) keep low profile on this one, to avoid BANDAI raid.  Dragon Momoko incident teach them a lesson, that BANDAI will go any length to protect their IP. |

Holy crap good I saw this thread. Was about to collect Metal Build but I don't like 1/100 scale. I'm going to have buy one of these 1/72. So they are just two of them by Mo Show at 1/72?

Welcome to the Club! Unfortunately, yes. Almost two, for exact words, because Buster is not release yet. Collecting 3rd party Gundam is like playing a roulette. If we get lucky, we will have it. If not ( I mean, BANDAI shutdown the company first), then we won't. LOL |

All the retail release versions are updated to not have the cable between the main body and backpack. There is still a short wire between backpack and the stand though. |

I also think it is simply rationing to spread the release between all the retailers since they are generally a bit more focused on the mainland China market. |

I Manage to get a Aile Strike for my Xmas present and just opened it. 😀
Thanks for everybody's great feedback in this thread I had to have this piece in my own hands. This is exactly the scale I'm looking for and very happy with the purchase. I just preordered the Buster. Like to have Vientiane 1/72 Destiny Gundam once it's available.

Always glad to help fellow collectors.  Sadly, its become more difficult to find, and price is hiking up. IMO, this is the best Metal Build available on the market today! Glad u still manage to get it. I just hope Poison Toys continue to release all remaining MS from SEED series. |

Buster review is up!
It is a prototype sending to reviewer to review; there might be slight modification, but it is pretty much what you can expect. The lights are cool and you won't need a stand to keep it light up like strike did.
Enjoy!

The lights are cool and you won't need a stand to keep it light up like strike did. Enjoy! This looks just as amazing as the Strike. I like how they are now using smaller button batteries now so no need for the wired stand. Launcher pack fits right in place too. Must buy, already pre-ordered. |

Now, this is what I call a Metal Build is!  Look at the size of this beast! Its even a slight bigger than Strike. |

Now, this is what I call a Metal Build is! Look at the size of this beast! Its even a slight bigger than Strike. Yes I'm excited for this release and I don't think I can buy Metal Build now after owning one of these 1/72. That's right don't need stand to keep LED lit up. My only concern like with Hot Toys is leaving these tiny batteries inside figure itself. Sometimes the batteries are pain to install and take out especially if the batteries need to be replace often from my experience with my War Machines. Unscrewing panels, losing tiny screw,removing head off potential broken tabs or just forgetting the batteries in general. But I can deal with it because these are just damn impressive pieces. I'll buy any of the releases I'm sold. 😀 I have ton of Chogokin and this is one of my favorite pieces in my collection. It's on top center shelf |

Another review with details and articulation. I do hope the knee missile banks get part separation, instead of looking like legos. But that's about the only complaint I have.

Thanks for the video share. I was thinking it would be cool if missiles come out myself but seeing that shoulder missiles do that makes me smile. I agree the knee launchers should be separated or more define.
What is that other taller gundam that was used for weapon height comparison? Is that that something that's unreleased or in the making?
