too bad every online shop I know, which would ship this kit worldwide, sells it at a rather high price, such that I think it's no longer worth buying... =(
It's not like they can afford to give you 30% as if you were buying a regular kit from a bulk reseller. This kit is full price, direct from Bandai. Only hardcore fans (in Japan and elsewhere) will be throwing their money at it.
I "throw" my money in the MG trans am raiser and it was worth it, yeah this kits are expensive because they are LIMITED if you miss the chance, well good luck finding one, try on ebay thats your last chance to buy it
Okay. Correction: "hardcore fans and fans that have more money than they know what to do with". That said, I certainly wouldn't mind having tons of disposable cash to blow on gunpla.
my point is, the real price is around 5k yen, and it's sold at over USD120 online, which is quite far from the real price... I don't mind throwing extra money for a limited kit, but USD120 is too much for a 5250 yen kit. (this is just my opinion, I know that online shops would sell this item more expensive than the real price because it's not easy to get it too. but for me, it's no longer worth buying)
This one I will buy.

DeleteMakes me feel happy that I pre-ordered mine for 6250 yen.
ReplyDeleteOnly an extra 1000 yen. Worth it.
