oh..might be the newer packaging of the same duck. not sure, but if it's different I might get it!

2-3 times the height?! that will be too high alr man...no space to store lol!

don't think it'd be the same duck. i think it's those duck with a green head that kind? something more colourful like mandarin duck..

hahaha then that'd be a challenge!!!

 

[Ginna_Hippo]

serious?? hahahaha. i still haven't had chance to try.
Marlinspike very boring. just laying bricks around the house.
but the tintin fan in me insists that i must get all of them!!

After i finish building i probably get the ship along with the hippo

Interested to see what that new steam locomotive looks like

Was wondering whether you guys going to do MO on the white tiger?

I'm also very interested in the version 2 Deluxe Tokyo Sky Tree however it has a very high price for a new retail kit. The original Deluxe Sky Tree sold for around 7500yen when it was first released (you can see it listed on AmiAmi site, sold out of course). Of course because the original is now out of stock you have to pay more like 20000yen for it off the auction sites.

I guess what I want to know is why the new V2 is priced so high. Does it really have that many more pieces? AmiAmi has it's height listed as 550mm which is similar to the original of 528mm (although the height of the new one might be wrong since it's still so long away from release). Although it may also be an indication that it's a slightly taller version but with a much more solid build, i.e. better design and more pieces. From what you guys have said the Deluxe Sky Tree is probably the most difficult nanoblock build by far.

Anyway, can't wait to see pictures and find more information about it.

haha. you are right. the huge price difference between ver 1 & 2 has me questioning whether ver 2 will really be worth it to buy.. or are they just pushing up the price simply because the secondary market price has shot up so high as well..

That's my fear but would love to see a better version. I mean if it is an official Kawada release then I don't see how it can be that expensive if it has similar number of pieces to the V1. 20000yen is more expensive than the Deluxe Castle which has 5800pieces, way more pieces than the V 1 Sky Tree.

Then there's the more recent Tintin boxes which are reasonably priced. If this is an official product and the price is right, then this could mean a fantastic new version of the Sky Tree. I really hope so. Can't wait to see it.

Maybe the Sky Tree Version 2.0 includes the adjacent mall and town. Anyway its just a provisional pre-order... not confirmed release yet i think.

[Zefbot]

If you were able to decide on a new deluxe kit for them to produce what would it be?

I think I'd like to see a Deluxe Sphinx model.

 

[Jasonovic]

anyone interested in getting things that launched in JP now, and not in SG yet or wun be able to found in SG? I going to order from my JP supplier soon by next week. Anyone interested can PM me..

I thinking of getting the white tiger, soccer boots. Soccer fever coming soon in June..!! Hahah..!!

 

[lsl7994]

white tiger must be damn ex.....

 

[lilrex21]

ya.. i second it.. white tiger must be damn ex.. let me know the price leh! haha..

 

[Rekseah]

what I meant is, in terms of cost savings.

Coz people buy like 2 packets of something to make the designs and have some spare parts left over. But it does not necessarily translate to savings immediately, but will only happen so in the long run, of which I estimate 30-40 kits lor...

like you said that time mah...nanoblocks mostly no rare parts wan.

Ok ok. hmmm... but i dont think will need so much. anyway, i got the numbers of the himeji castle down le. show you next time.

 

[NanoblockFanPage]

hi all! this is simon, the person who runs nanoblock fan page on facebook: facebook.com/nanoblockfanpage so if you guys have fb, make sure to like my page! i provide a lot of info/pics related to nanoblock straight from japan! of course, please feel free to post pics or share info u know too!

anyways, you guys were asking about the price for white tiger. at the nanoblock store, it's retailing at 997 japanese yen. which is a little more expensive than the other regular releases at retail price (by 250~300 yen, not accounting for the big electronic retailers who sell nanoblocks ever cheaper). it's supposedly limited to 3000 of them (i went to the store yesterday and there's still a lot). i posted pictures on my fb, so definitely check them out there!

if u guys ever have any questions, feel free to ask and i'll be more than happy to answer as best as i can!
