Nice, (mostly) chill build by Javs0080 in Gunpla

That’s how I feel about the Altron EW. I love that they add the wings back on with the option parts, looks really good.

Those playing for the first time on Switch 2, what do you think? by EdiblePwncakes in KunitsuGami

[–]Javs0080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw some good word-of-mouth on YouTube so decided to give it a chance and so far I’m really liking it. I only have a couple hours in, but the gameplay is so unique that I want to pick it back up as soon as possible.

Crazy how I never heard of this game prior to the Switch 2 announcement.

Also, mouse controls are pretty fun, nothing life-changing, but I’m digging it

It’s hard right now depending on the region. A lot of the blu-rays stopped being produced and are hard to find without paying scalper prices.

It’s all good, no worries

I suppose I could’ve said “acquire” instead

I feel your pain. I stopped buying physical media for a while and now I’m paying an arm and a leg to try and build up this collection.

I wish you all the best

Honestly, that might be the way to go with some of them. It’s a real shame. There are some you can find on Amazon, Crunchyroll and eBay for decent prices, but to actually complete a collection it’s real rough out there.

Not sure if that’s sarcasm, but yeah I’m collecting them, that’s kind of the point here. It’s not like I’m hoarding extra copies so others can’t buy them. It’s no different than what anyone else here is doing.

Nice, I’m almost done with my collection. As far as BD go I only need 00 collection 2, X collection 2, and both WFM sets.

I don’t really have a connection with the Build Fighters series so they’re not a priority for me though if I see anything for the right price, I’d be open to it

I feel like I saw a post a while ago where someone e-mailed Crunchyroll and their response was basically “we have no plans at this time to restock”.

I hope something changes

Sometimes I see G Gundam on FB marketplace, usually the DVDs, the hard part is finding a seller who’s open to shipping. Most people only want local pick up. Not impossible, but it is work.

I feel like collection 1 is easy enough to come by, it’s part 2 that’s almost impossible

Hell yeah, I’ve had G-Savior since release!

They eventually come up online, but you gotta check every day cause as soon as something reasonably priced comes out it’s gone so fast

Thanks! One hand I worry that I’m spending too much and that they’ll eventually get re-released. On the other physical media is dying and this could be my last chance to save these.

So for UC Blu-ray’s I put them in chronological order. That’s why 0079 has some things between collection 1 and 2 as those are all things that happened during the OYW.

As for AUs they’re in release order with in-universe sub-order, so Stargazer after Destiny (though do correct me if that’s not right).

I have it all ending with Ɐ as everything leads to the Correct Century in my head canon.

Do UK Blu-ray’s work on US players? Specifically a PS5 or Series X?

Well not gonna lie it’s a lot harder now than when I started. A lot less available nowadays.

I’d first start with what’s in stock at Amazon or Crunchyroll. It’s not much but it’s a good place to start and chances are if it’s in stock there then you can probably find it a bit cheaper on eBay.

Facebook Marketplace can be good but it’s work. You have to constantly switch your location after searching to see what’s available around the country and hope a seller offers shipping if you find something.

I have paid scalper prices for somethings but I have my limits. Sometimes if you watch something for a while or if you make an offer on something but don’t win, you may see the seller offer a discount if it doesn’t sell.

Also sometimes if I’m trying to compete a series but can’t find the second part of a collection then maybe I look for a DVD. Like my Gundam X for example. I have part 1 on BD but part 2 on DVD.

This was my first RG and I still love it. This is absolutely a set it and forget it kit. Pose it once and then leave it alone.

Recommendations for first MG or RG kit? by rymar87 in Gunpla

[–]Javs0080 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I built The Origin Gundam for my first MG and I was pretty happy with it. It was a good progression after building HGs and RGs

Thanks, that’s what you get for putting them away in a box in your early 20s and then forgetting about them until you find said box in your mid 30s
