Today browsing casually on one of my models site I've discovered that CIG has apparently partnered with Kotobukiya for producing some new models:
www.hlj.com
F8C nontheless!
Also in two flavour: the model kit (a snap-fit one)and the complete kit, both including light effect.
Some personal consideration about the kit (pure speculation since is not yet relesed)...
Cast will be of gorgeous quality as expected by a Japanese company, maybe not at Badai level, but still very very high quality.
Price will be higher compared to the linked page since those are japan domestic prices, add shipping, import taxes rate exchange etc... consider a local MSRP around 1.5-2 time (at least for my experience in Europe), still, for the expected quality not a bad deal... (and way more cheap then the digital one)
Now I'll have to wait for August to get my hands on one (maybe in multiple copies), then I'll defenetly let you know more about it
Fun fact: this model is already outdated: it still use the old version of the repeaters that CIG has recently re-design...
