Good for MC, if Bandai made enough so everyone could get one I was against the 3th party companies but this model is so rare and goes for around 550-650 new in box! A lot of collectors got left out because of scalpers or collectors who felt the need to own 3 or more. All my MB's are original Bandai but I think this will be my 2nd 3th party model (first one was the MC Kshatryia and I was very impressed by it). The Wing Zero was an unusual one compared to other releases since it was a Tamashii web exclusive yet this had multiple pre-order rounds in different regions, including here in the USA. Up to 3 rounds in one even. I think the last pre-order attempts stayed up for quite long as well. So saying Bandai didn't make enough is false at least for this one. You just missed out USA had pre-order rounds indeed but here in Europe we are dependent on websites like HLJ, NY, AmiAmi etc. Those websites are usually sold out in minutes and because of the increased traffic websites are slow or just fail. I tried to get one multiple times but pre-ordering times in working hours and the reasons mentioned before prevented me from ordering one (that where already marked up in price).

I just got notified to the MC Freedom is ready and I paid for the figure. Weird issue though is ShowZStore has two listings for it.

I was notified to pay for the MC Freedom 2.0 in full last week, so I assume it's close to shipping.

I've got a Poison Toys Kampfer on its way here. Bought it sort of on a whim since the Kampfer has always been one of my favorite MS designs - I guess I was lucky to get into the first release batch. Didn't get the lighting set though because I think the clear "caps" on the boosters look absolutely horrid and was planning on popping them all off. I'll hopefully take some pics once it comes in (whenever it comes in, the post can be so unreliable these days).

I dislike the new heads tho, wonder why they changed designs at last second, legal shenanigans?

Got it from ShowZ store. They're listing as pre-order because the first batch they received is sold out. Hopefully this doesn't become a case of "the first batch has issues that get fixed on later runs", but that's a gamble you take sometimes.

Got my Poison Toys Kampfer in. I would definitely recommend it. Finish is clean, super poseable, and the joints are really tight. It's about 11 inches to the tip of the antennae and quite hefty. There's some aesthetic things that I don't fancy but I think it's pretty minor overall. Also, there's no manual, at least mine didn't come with one. The video review posted earlier helped quite a bit.

Keep in mind that could just be a pre-production sample sent to reviewers.

Another video of the Kampfer - the stop motion must have taken forever! Like the look of this one!
