      Oh man love the box art of the Banshee. Also the Manual look real nice. The only thing that bug the hell out of me that they made the Armed Armor VN/BS P-Bandai. Oh well, guess Bandai is still “that” Bandai that we know, looking forward to the build.

    • Did they use a dull gold on the frame parts because they don’t show as much, or is it because coated gold could potentially scratch? And of course, excluding financial or technical reasons.

      building the ova mg unicorn right now. looks badass. Never really warmed up to the banshee.

    • I’ve been following you guys on YouTube for a year and a half now, and I just finished building my first 3 Gundam and it was fun. So thank you for inspiring me too build Gundam instead of watching people build them.

    Hi,
    The Hermes was so much fun I took a second aircraft carrier from the stash, this time another Orange hobby kit, the HMS Victorious from the 60s era which involves some interesting airplanes.
    The structure is finished already, and here is the picture 🙂

    Hi,
    so the work is done, a very challenging kit, but I’ve enjoyed it a lot. I have another kit of Orange hobby, and I plan to get more. The complexity and interesting subjects are very appealing to me.
    thanks for taking a look,
    Eyal.

    Do you guys know if there are other online stores that will still sell Star Wars kits besides ebay? Please share links.

  • Mathew posted an update 9 years ago

    The white X-decal 4 from Wave Corporation arrived this week so I was able to apply them to my GM.

    Syd and Ryan get serious to talk about what’s been happening in regards to the Star Wars plastic model kits from Bandai.

      No, i can’t believe this, I loved the Star Wars kits from Bandai. They combined two of my favorite things: Gunpla and Star Wars. Is there any chance that they will come back in the future?

    • Hi! Will the Boba Fett come out in time for us abroad to order it, before Sept 20 that is?

      Kind regards
      Kim W.

    • Sad news. Those kits were super detailed compared to Revel.

    • I doesnt look like Bandai decision. Still the kits should still be avaliable by ebay just with a mark-up by the seller who would have to pay the full price of the kit and also earn some cash from the sell.

    • It does suck it really does, but lets look on the bright side, for all we know bandai has gone into talks to distribute the kits internationally so maybe we will still be able to get our model building paws on them. It does suck that Hlj wont be able to sell em but that deal that HLJ is running is awesome so lets snap up those kits.

      • I personally hope this is the actual case.

      • That would be the only thing that makes sense. They aren’t going to sell more Revell kits by doing this. They are painfully dated in comparison to the stuff Bandai has done with the line.

    • It sucks, but I understand. I choose to blame George Lucas and the evil empire (AKA Disney).

      • Actually I don’t blame George at all. Say what you will about the Prequels films George knew how to sell the Star Wars merchandise fans wanted to them. He knew that when doing the midnight toys sales people are really ONLY there for the action figures so he made sure the toy stores had a surplus of figures to sell. He could sell a thousand or more figures per store on these midnight madness events. Since Disney took over they had MAYBE 100, if that, figures to sell TOPS. They didn’t want to buy the other crap Disney had wasting shelf space.

        We all know how Bandai tried to sell Gunpla in America and failed because nobody knew what they were. This would have been a HUGE win/win for Lucasfilm and Bandai.

        Oh well. At least HLJ can still sell me Gunpla…

    • Oh, for the real reason why, here is my guess. Revell bought the exclusive rights to sell Star Wars model kits in certain countries (like the USA). This means that model Star Wars kits made by other companies can not be sold directly in the USA without Revell giving their permission.

    • I hope that you’ll explain the reason why this happened. I’m a huge fan of bandai’s star wars kit and this is such a dreadful news!! T-T

    • Is it all Bandai Star Wars products or just the model kits? is HLJ still gonna be selling for example the s.h. figuarts star wars figures from bandai internationally?

    • Now all we can hope for is that Revell will buy the kits from Bandai and repackage them for Europe and America!

    • is this limited to model kits? is it going to affect complete figures? i’d hate for this to affect the marvel figuarts line… T_T

    • WWHHAATTT????!!!!! THIS IS INSANE!!!!

    • scid replied 9 years ago

      I would love to buy them from hlj rather from my local distributor as they mark the price double if I bought them from hlj even with shipping. Hate bandai for the star wars and the ‘P Bandai’ stuff.

    • scid replied 9 years ago

      By the way @Ryan I dont if this is only my pc prob or my web browser problem. I’ve been inconveniently seeing alots of ads from hlj site. mainly ads like malware. the problem is Its only on hlj site. other site is ok. I’ve been cleaning up my browser and updating my antivirus but the problem persist.

    • LAME MOVE Disney. There is a reason that fans don’t buy the American model kit releases and its called THEY SUCK!!!

      You aren’t going to generate any sales in America by doing this. You are only going to cost yourself additional sales of people who want to buy these kits and now can’t buy them. It’s like you are purposefully trying to lose money or something.

      Between this and the Force Friday debacle, where you had almost no figures which were THE ONLY THING PEOPLE COME TO THOSE MIDNIGHT SALES EVENTS TO BUY, your licensing marketing team needs to fired.

    • To be fair Disney’s licensing team for Star Wars is currently 0 for 2. They totally misunderstood what fans wanted to buy on Force Friday by short-stocking the action figures and now they are preventing fans from buying stuff they want with these kits. I’m hoping they realize the error of their ways but I am not holding my breath yet.

    Who is Revell to decide what I can and cannot buy. This is invasion of my personal life. There is no free trade in America. Disney and Bandai should buy out Revell to prove a point.
