And apparently, as of the recent news, HLJ will be the only export outlet that it'll be available from, at least for this initial run. And all Bandai plamo in general.
Draias is superb, really is, at times handling this felt like handing an actual toy. It is remarkably well built. The transformation is brilliant save for a weird bit where you have to take the tigers under gubbins apart and then plug it back in again in a slightly different spot. The dragon doesn't do this and it was only when putting Draias together that I realised why. The dragons under gubbins includes an actual functioning waist joint for Draias. The tiger separates so it can utilise this joint. The jet mode is pretty decent for a third mode, features some pegs to lock the wings in place and this also holds the lower legs in place too making the whole thing much more solid. Excellent model all around and much less parts formery and frustrating then Great Fighbird.
PO'd I also ordered the Grand Bird set and have it sitting in my Private Warehouse, hopefully, they get Draias soon so I can ship.
Thought it was slated for April? Not that I'm complaining. This guy and Gaohn are probably my most anticipated releases for the year.
Guys! got a haul from Japan! Dragon Kaiser in a beat up box and King J Der (and a Exkaiser head) And just noticed, he is missing the Arm Arrow (goddamit!) Auction didnt mention it nor was noticeable on the pictures Instead, he came with these guns and pieces, anyone knows what are those???
Oh man, I can't wait. Just out of curiosity, I always felt the SMP line was a way to get vintage toys in the hands of fans at a lower price point. Is SMP Draias still cheaper than the vintage toy?
Mandarake is a second hand site, so selection will be pretty random, and unless shipping is back to normal your only options are EMS or DHL
