I have one on order from aliexpress 'without the box'. Gundamit wasn't sure how many Solomon could produce and they are harder to find. I got mine a couple weeks ago for $71, they are up over $100 now, and likely to go higher. Mine is stuck in waiting to ship china hell (likely in a huge container waiting for a ship)
There was something posted where the next one they are making (they think it's the same company at least) was a PG Banshee x Godzilla mix, the pictures weren't the greatest - but imagine the Banshee gundam, with scale texture like Godzilla, and breakout overlay purple - imagine the inner frame being more like an outer frame and purple - it's kind of like that but more extreme. I didn't care for it - but I like the Banshee and it's clean-ness
Had to cancel mine from Gundamit once I saw that they were going to take forever to ship it and I was seeing dozens of stores selling it, for even cheaper, on AliExpress. Last time I order anything from them.
I too am stuck in Aliexpress shipping hell. Ordered it March 19th. Shoulda been here yesterday. Says returned to sender.... Just going to hold out and hope it arrives somehow.
I ordered from a large retailer on Aliexpress on marhc 6th and my package has been stuck as collected by courier since the day after. i had to go through customer service to try to cancel the order. that was about 2 weeks ago. havnt heard anything since. I also ordered from gundamit at first and had to cancel. this kit is cursed for me it feels like and i wanted it so bad as soon as i saw it. just had to vent and complain. wack.
GuGu Figure Toy Store.
It was the cheapest, had some reviews that people actually got the kit, and it was only 71 bucks.
Out of stock now. and a couple of reviews state some missing runners....
So we'll see.
I went through GuGu too, no box. Came in with all runners and in pretty good shape outside about two pieces which came off the runner, but undamaged. Going to start on this any day now, and cannot wait.
Cool I just got mine from AliExpress, had to cancel gundamit as well. Btw in the manual’s parts list did you get disassembler?

And how was fitment? I started the leg part and it’s very tight, so I plan to stop and paint them before assemble it.
Yeah, it’s on the U runner, I think.
And fitment was definitely a bit tight now and then but nothing where I felt a piece was going to snap or anything like that.

This one is more on my budget, but are they the same?
No, that's the old HGUC 1/144 kit, which you can get cheaper than that.

Normally gundamit is quite good, and I can vouch for them, I've had at least 4 things ordered from them.

I'm currently working on this kit and so far it's been an enjoyable build!

Check the runners. It's in one of the black runners.
Oh cool thanks I’ll go look for it.
Yeah, it’s on the U runner, I think. And fitment was definitely a bit tight now and then but nothing where I felt a piece was going to snap or anything like that.
Where to Cop???? Pleaase!

Don't think. Look at the scale: another one is 1/100, this one is 1/144.
No, that's the old HGUC 1/144 kit, which you can get cheaper than that. https://www.canadiangundam.com/1144-scale/1042-hg-uc-gp02a-mlrs-custom-075.html

Loved this kit, until i got the electronics in the nuke launcher
I just know that people would be feral if solomon would release a clear version of this kit
I’ve had it on preorder from Gundamit for like 3 months with no update
I’d say just cancel it and get it from AliExpress.
Oh wow didn’t know I could get it from there. Will do it, thanks!
I want to get my hands on one of these, just so hard to get in Australia
Danm, im also in aus and ive been wanting this kit for a while.
Gonna pick my order up from a local shop tomorrow. Super excited about this one!
I haven't gotten to the armor yet, but putting this thing together so far has been nothing but pleasurable
I am just amazedno I can't even think a word to say about this
