Wah abit hard leh whole chest piece but you can try! Mine only the side skirt of my 00Q so not so bad. The 8RMB is excluding shipping cause I bought other stuff also.

If the seller don't have your parts maybe purchase a bootleg kit just for the chest piece lor. Good luck!

Expo Update
-MG Sword Strike Gundam $55 Added.

Dragon Momoko action base now in Singapore for $12.

*Supports up to 1/100 scale. Comes with 10 adaptors for bits but has 17 slots in the ring. I can see its made for just about all MS kit types including MA as well since balance supports can deploy from beneath the base. A tad overkill for use as a normal stand but when Bandai stands cost very well above the 550 yen range even at the Gunpla Expo, this is a better buy if you have the space.

Was thinking of buying some HG OO gundams at the fair. Still pretty ex and not much choices st the fair. Think I will just span at yodabashi then, but given the strong yen, probably only save 10 sing dollar pierce piece..

If u are already going Japan, why not get MG/RG or even PG? With the money saved, u can get HG here anytime.
HG and SD price saving not a lot, can't really maxmimise ur luggage space. I only aim those SD or HG units which I can't find here.

Actually more worth to order HG online as it can work out to 3 dollars shipping per hg kit. More worth to get older and rare kits when in japan or kits from series that are hard to get online. Especially those you dont trust shipping to deliver in one piece.

Bought Gundam strike freedom full burst for 4528 Yen last year. RG exia for 1741 Yen, and HG Barbatos gundam 825 Yen (so cheap!) at Yodobashi. Have RG trans-arm OO raiser too.

Thinking of buying the full range of OO season 1's Gundam to create a warzone. Arios, dynames, Virtue, Ali al-Saachez's flag etc. Probably a few Trans-arm version too.

This time round going grand chaos mandrake to look for rare kits. Hopefully(as if I know what are rare. lol).

I dun see much profit margin for MG kits since carousell also sell quite cheaply nowadays.

And SG getting P-bandai too !

 

[Spectre007]

Looks like more worth to order the HG kits online and only buy local if cannot find anywhere online. MG grade and above is better to buy there. Since you bought at Yodobashi, does the tourist tax refund and visa discount stack?

Yeah the 5% off via visa and tax refund(need to exceed 10000 yen) stack. However, since the exchange rate is set by visa credit card, not sure how much the saving also.

Ya, it's more worth it to get MG and PG. But nowadays Carosell price so competitive Liao. Think it will be more worth to get rare kit...but not easy to find..

I buy tamiya tools and markers there. Cutters etc. Quite good price. Going this month again:.
