pg 00 raiser

(no subject)

FUUUUUUCK

I'll make this my final, final gunpla purchase.

But if it doesn't come with O Raiser, I'm forgetting about it. jgdlskj if they make O Raiser a separate release, I will throw up and give this kit a miss.

But I remember Strike Rouge and Sky Grasper. Those two came together as a set. And what is 00 without O Raiser?

gjdslkjh I just remembered that 00 has slightly muted colours. If this PG doesn't have them, NO GO.

*APPLIES FOR PART TIME JOBS EVERYWHERE*

Everything is out to make sure I don't stick to my plan lmao, but...a big expense once in a very long while is okay, right? ...right? >_>

Gundam Astray Red Frame - 18,000 yen [at HAG, the special price was ~S$333 |||OTL]
Gundam Wing Zero Special ver - 30,000 yen [ O_O ]
Strike Rouge + Sky Grasper - 19,000 yen
Strike Gundam - 14,000 yen
Gundam Wing Zero - 15,000 yen
MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam - 20,000 yen
RX-78-2 Gundam - 12,000 yen

Strike Rouge + Sky Grasper - closest price? Taking into account higher costs and everything [these prices were like from 4 years ago lmao], it may be around 19,000Y~25,000Y?

Target: Save S$450~S$500 by about...March 2010? June 2010?

Note: Possibility of O Raiser being released as a separate kit. x_X Or I can wait till the hype has died down to get mine - possibility of discount [especially if it's released during the Great Singapore Sale AHAHA *shot*].

EDIT:
Does anyone have at hand the average height of a completed PG kit? OTL

Astray stands at almost 30 cm. Okay, upon more detailed googling, 30 cm seems to be the norm for 1/60 kits.

EDIT:
Oh cool, someone is selling past magazines!! I should do the same. I've been thinking of holding a EVERYTHING IS $5 sale lately.

EDIT:
HYDE is going to be at OTAKON!? ENVYYYY. >:|

EDIT:
Oh,

gundam00_rating is dead-ish. ;_____; I was thinking of doing a re-application just to see if my stamp as Christina still stands. Who would vote if I went to apply again ahahaha 8D

waaaaaaaaaaahhhh PG 00?!?! I'm surprised they came out with 00 before Exia though... I don't think it comes with the O-Raiser though, they'll probably make it a separate kit and you can put the two together (like how the PG Strike and PG Skygrasper has parts that you can share)...

Goodbye PG 00. B|

On a more serious note, I'll see how it all pans out. T.T If I'm lucky, they might do some special bundle thing. If I'm unlucky, it'll be a Japan-only offer. I guess with this news, the chance of a PG Exia is smaller. D|

They might do what they did with the PG Strike, where they release the PG Skygrasper separately, but also have the bundled version of Strike Rouge + Skygrasper... so there might be just the 0-Raiser, and you can put it together with the 00, and they might eventually bundle it together maybe?

But the price... ;__; .. my Strike + Skygrasper together is like $220 USD (I bought them separately though), and I got the Strike at a con, so no shipping fees for that (and shipping will be expensive if you buy online, 'cause the box is huuuuuuuuuuggggeeee)

My fave part about PG kits though is the pilots they come with =3 So if they do have the Raiser, you'll probably get Saji (and maybe red Haro ^^) with it. ~~I so did not get the PG Skygrasper just for the little Mwu it comes with >__>~~

But yeah, chances for PG Exia look bad... =( esp with the MG release... (I'm surprised Freedom/Strike Freedom doesn't have PG yet, despite being so popular, maybe 'cause it has so many MG versions?) and 00 really being the title Gundam...

I'm going to be smart this time and wait for the bundle version. XD I bought the NG 1/100 ones separately and fell for Bandai's tricks again when I got SD 00 AND SD 00 Raiser. T.T You're not tricking me this time, Bandai!!

The thought of a tiny uncoloured Saji figurine just made me squeal. XDDD Now I'm hoping very hard for a bundle. OTL And yeah, the price is the biggest problem about this kit. ):

Same, plus I saw your reply on the comm in which you raised the possibility of a MG 00 Raiser so now I feel conflicted. x_x I think a MG kit is much more manageable, but personally, I really don't feel satisfied if I have to stop gunpla collecting and not try my hand on a PG kit. :S And I'm really surprised that Strike Freedom doesn't have a PG yet either ~~unless they're saving it for the GSD movie that they announced years ago. XD~~

yeah, stupid Bandai... although I want the SD 00-Raiser, I already got the SD 00 and don't want another one >___< It's like that for the SD Exia too... ~~Maybe they created the 00-Raiser just so they can make more money on the duplicating toys DX..~~ I think they had the many versions of Exia, like Exia R2, Trans-Am Exia, Exia Ignited, Exia Repair etc. to make more money on kits >__>

haha yeah, the Saji figurine would be cute (though I wish the pilots came painted >__< 'cause it's so tiny and hard to paint). I hope it comes with Red Haro too (though the size will be miniscule and I'd be afraid to lose it >__< )

Yeah, I'm surprised they don't have an MG 00/00-Raiser yet. But it'll probably happen eventually. I guess it's good to at least get one PG kit to try it, in that case, you can hold off on the MG 00 (if it comes out) until you know whether they're gonna do a PG 00-Raiser bundle thing (haha I still have to start mine.. but I'm so afraid I'd mess it up or something >__< ), though it'll be hard to try and sneak it past parents 'cause the box is huuuuuuge

Yeah. -A- And it's not just G00 alone - I've lost count of the number of renditions for EndlessWaltz!Wing Zero, and the multiple MG kits for Strike Freedom. Not to forget all the different Zaku from the UC line...

Same. ;__; I guess if the pilots came painted it'd be even more expensive but I sometimes find myself thinking that I probably wouldn't mind paying extra for a coloured pilot. ;-; Much kudos to people who actually try painting the figurines - I have no idea how the people who make the kits for the photos on the boxes do it. x_X"

True on the MG kit thing, and I've decided that I should tell my parents about my decision to get the kit IF I really do go for it. XDDD No doubt I'm going to meet with a lot of resistance, but I want to work so that I'll buy it with my own money and not have to ask them for cash. Plus I've been looking forward to a PG for a long while and I'll quit after this kit, so it's an exchange of sorts. ;__;

PG 00?
Don't know if want.

I mean PG is awesome and everything but I probably wouldn't have the skills or patience to build it. OR THE MONEY OTL

/cuddles her HGs >|

Ahaha, this. OTL I've always wanted to give PG kits a try though, so I'll just be sitting on this until more information is out.

*expects this around the 20,000~25,000 yen range at least* The import tax will make it higher i bet B|

Yeah, definitely. I don't know how much Strike Rouge costs here because I've never had the urge to check its price, but I bet even that can't accurately tell us how much it is.

Still, it's a long while away, and I just estimated that if I start saving now, I'll just have to save about S$32 each month to reach my target by March ahaha. BUT I REALLY WANT A JOB.

HELL YEAH PG STRIKE is 200 bucks at TnJ what

HOW MANY PLACES HAVE YOU APPLIED TO

Oho, that sounds about right.

I applied to 3 places.

Holy crap Hyde?! OTAKON?! ;A;

Not that I would ever spend money on an actual trip to go there but... ?!?!?!?! *cries*

I KNOOOOW I only knew about this just now. ;___; And a good chunk of the people on my f-list have gone so I'm feeling envious. B|

Hahaha lol... it's like how most of my flist was talking about Cosfest all of last week, sigh. I hate it when that happens, it makes me feel like I want to be there even though I don't even cosplay anymore. ;A;

Aaah CosFest. ;___; I don't have many cosplayers and photographers on my f-list, so it just came and went for me. XD

Oh also since the PGs are 1/60, with my calculations PG 00 would be around 65 cm in height. (wow that's fucking huge)

WAT LOL That thing can't possibly fit into any display cabinet. o_O

Um... 00 is 18m, so... 1800/60 = 30cm ^^;

I kind suspect they will release 00-Raiser later rather than separate 0-Raiser. Or is that too evil corporate-ish?

I'm kind of leaning towards a full 00 Raiser set as well, because 00 Gundam without O Raiser is a little... o_O And the trend seems to be that they'll eventually release it as an entire set. Lol NG 1/100, HG 1/144 and Robot Damashi.

If that's the case, I'll just put off buying PG 00 and wait for a set. If the set never materializes, I can go and get the PG 00 provided it doesn't sell out. XD

I still want to hold onto my Setz Stamp, but lmao with more characters, they should have a revamp~

Yeah. But there's no one voting on the new apps, so I don't know how much good a revamp will do.
