Bandai Gundam stock info, need it? want it? wish list here!

[Tuuuuuuuuuuu :DD]

So Rhyan, is it possible that Seven Swords OO will come in by Saturday or on Saturday? I would like to know an estimate on the price too please.
Want to bring enough to get it if it's out or when it's out.
Forgot to mention, do members from the AnimeClub get discounts this Saturday? hahahahaah....... 

[rhyan@hobbyco]

^ Nope no chance of getting the Seven Swords ($31.25) in by Saturday, we have stock deliveries from our warehouse on Tues and Thursdays no sign of it in this morning's load, we are hoping to see it by next Thursday unless it gets delayed in que .

Yes 20% discount off RRP, on the day on all Gundam models. We open 10AM 

@ Mak0: GN-X shipment unfortunately been split up and it missed the boat leaving Tokyo so its been delayed again *sigh* were hoping to get a handful in the shop on the container that is in the warehouse, not sure with the numbers until I see it.  At this stage most of our kits are Gundam related however we are happy to say that we are close to securing other stuff in such as Armoured Core,Zoids etc...I'm 99% there so watch this space! I wont mention Macross or Code Geass otherwise all hells gonna break loose  oooops that slipped!

[Mak0]

How much is the "1/144 HG FA-78-3 Full Armour Gundam 7th" ??
from what i can tell from the FB page, it looks like a sweet uni to start out with

[rhyan@hobbyco]

^ $27.95 for the "1/144 HG FA-78-3 Full Armour Gundam 7th" thats a damn good model for the price!

[Tuuuuuuuuuuu :DD]

hahaha.
I'm also curious about that pre-order and get discount off seven sword OO too. 
Well, I'll look around for any other HG I might decide to get to build on the day since seven sword isn't out by then.

Hmm... I wonder how the Armored Core deal is going - I might want one 

P.S. IAre there any plans to import Anime figurines in the future

[rhyan@hobbyco]

^Were nearly there with the jap pop culture,anime figures and the armored core stuff,just like with most things I'm workin on its taking a bit of time to sort out fiddly little details,rest assured hobbyco will be geting some nice stuff in soon.I'll keep u guys posted.

Needing some painting advice, because spending a few hundred dollars on a compressor and airbrush makes my eyes water, is painting using spray cans (such as the tamiya spray cans) viable, or does it pale in comparison to using a proper airbrush?

[rhyan@hobbyco]

You can still get good results from a spray can but can the trade off is the overall finish and control,with an airbrush will have a finer spray as well as being able to control paint flow where you want it to go.

I actually know a very skilled modeller that paints his Gundams with a paint brush and tins of humbrol paints then clear coats it afterwards! no joke he's old school lol but seriously if you see his work its as good as any well built airbrushed model.

Yes the initial outlay on a compressor is pretty scary however using an airbrush will save you money on paint on the long run. 1 can of paint $13.00  you buy 10 cans and your half way to a decent compressor, I guess it all depends how serious you are with your modelling.

[phr0z3n]

@rhyan

Thank god At least you have plans to import figurines at all. Absolutely NO ONE sells them here. 

Oh and how soon is "nearly there" 

[Mak0]

Wow, gotta see that modellers work, my first and last attempt at painting was with a paintbrush and some humbrols. didnt turn out so well 

Guess i'll suck it up and get a compressor and airbrush....once i get the funds together
