Hi Guys,
This is my first thread in quite a while.
Anywhoo, last I read, the DX MSiA Dendrobium is pretty hard to find, if not, rare. I was lucky enough that my toy supplier (www-greattoys.net) was able to find one.
Box is battered, but contents are still in their sealed plastic bags.
I would like to know, if anyone here has this toy in their collection, and how is it. I know it's only a few scales smaller than the 1/144 HGUC Dendrobium, so it's pretty big.
How's the overall look, quality? Does the long beam cannon sag/droop after some time, like what's been reported with the HGUC?
Any information, and if possible, pics, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have this item, but no digital camera right now. I really like it. It is huge, probably about 3 feet long from tip to tail. From what I remember it took about 30min to an hour to assemble.
The front mast/pointy thing may sag very slightly, but not noticable at all. I've had mine on display for approximately 2 years now with no problems.
I am not sure how rare it really is though. I see one on e-bay right now for $109, and I know a local Bay Area store has one from sale new in box. I believe I paid about $120 for this item new from BBTS.
I highly recommend this item. Hopefully this helps some.

Thanks for the information!
That's about the same price I'm getting my Dendrobium ($120). Getting it at the end of this month.
Hope someone can post pics. Makes the anticipation all the more tasty. ;D
