  • streum13 posted an update in the group Group logo of What just arrived from HLJ??What just arrived from HLJ?? 9 years, 8 months ago

    I just got these a few minutes ago: Metal Gear Rex, Vic Viper, X-Wing and RG Zaku 2.
    But before I start those I have to finish first the Jehuty and a 1/48 De Havilland Dragon for my father.

    • A bit dark to see the delicious box covers but nice nonetheless… and I have that X-Wing as well! 😛

      • In the south of france the light is so powerful during the summer at midday that I have to put the settings of my smartphone on dark otherwise the picture would be overexposed. Plus the box of the Metal Gear Rex is printed in silver colors witch is difficult to get on photos.

        • And Philip is your X-Wing already finished? I’d love to see pictures of it, it could help me doing mine even if I have some ideas already on how to build and paint this kit. I ordered also a weathering set with smoke only for this one.

    • cool x-wing

      • Yup I opened the box to check the content. That’s my first Fine Molds kit and yes, they deserve their name! The parts have full of details, the water decals are really nicely done and like on Ryan’s Millennium Falcon the manual shows very precise instructions for building and painting.

        • @streum13, yes I was impressed by the details too. Bought a panel wash cos I will go nuts if I actually do the panel lines with a gundam panel lining marker lol.

          • Use is it for RG too. I bought Tamiya’s Panel Line Accent Color black and grey for my first RG because they are too tiny to fill them with a Gundam panel line marker.
            Now I use that for all my panel lining, just using the marker for little details sometimes or if I missed a panel line previously.

    • So many update and i’m still waiting mine ^^
      I’m actually so jealous as i’m waiting since the shipment notification the 18 june :/

      • What country are you from Tobi? Got those from japan to france on around 10 days since the shipment notification with a delay of one day due to customs.

        • coucou français ben je suis à Paris et en livraison standard donc bon. D’habitude ça arrive en 2 semaine max 2 semaines et demi et là non.

          • yep c’est vrai, moi je les ai commandé en Fedex.
            Sinon en bateau je les reçois en 3 ou 4 semaine.

            • Le truc c’est qu’avec un seul colis (enfin le OO raiser MG + 1 paire de led) il était plus rentable de passer par le bateau car livrer par la poste qui met moins de douane qu’en EMS. Bon fedex est vraiment chère a utiliser si y a beaucoup de colis je pense. Il y a beaucoup de taxe de douane avec eux?
              Faudrait limite créer un groupe pour savoir qui vient d’où et partager les bons plans du coin ^^

              • Je confirme j’ai payé 46 euros de frais de douanes pour celui là. 😛

                • Je vais mettre celui là en anglais pour que tout le monde comprenne 😉

                  I had to order those by Fedex because HLJ didn’t proposed me the boat option. I had only Fedex and EMS available. Maybe the box was too big for shipment by boat, I don’t really get it. 😛

    • I like to see the rex 🙂 I am curios with that kit
