will probably cost half the whole gundam kit,
some japanese websites do sell parts of the kit,
but at a huge mark-up.
hands are hot in demand definitely.
you'd be better off buying the whole kit
the HLJ manipulators for 1/100 gundams
are a fantastic alternative.
I was thinking of those too. |

I'd say they're about the size of deluxes, maybe slightly bigger depending on the deluxe.
Looking at those prices, you can get a 1/100 Gundam kit for about the same price and you get 1 set of semi-articulated hands with the kit (the index finger is individually articulated and the 3 other smaller fingers articulate together and the thumb is stationary which is pretty much the same amount of articulation as Alt/BT hands). You do get 3 sets of hands if you buy one of the HLJ sets but they are not articulated. |

See here: http://dalong.net/review/00/0102/0102_p.htm
I recommend the manipulators for gelgoog because they are larger than normal gundams. You can replace the fingers with wires and styrene rods. http://dalong.net/review/mg/m82/p/m82_33.jpg http://www.hlj.com/product/BCL2613
The best option is if somebody is willing to make and sell recasts of the MG gundam hands.  |
