Bandai release schedule
- Thread starter TazMan2000
- Start date
I was thinking of using cheap plain black lingerie to get a fine thread count. Might be cheaper to buy the fabric, then have enough for Vader, Phasma, Grievous, Maul hopefully too!

I can just see the wives now when they find the receipts.
Wife: "Hun? What did you buy from Victoria's Secret?"
Modeler: "Um... a... cape for my General Grievous model?" :facepalm
Wait till they find holes cut out the back of all their existing lingerie :lol White for Leia, Red for a Guard, black for bad guys, green for Fett, brown for Jedi etc
I wouldnt destroy VS, i was thinking of cheapest plain black stuff off ebay/amazon from china, in XXXL size might get four capes out of one!

I heard that there was an issue with the optical compositor, which left the artifact of the red in. It does look intentional though.
Started building the Bandai AT-AT today - this is about an hour in! Very complex kit for what it is, but astonishing in the amount of detail and complexity.

Yep its a shame, but at least you can get the rest in local shops, here in the UK we dont get anything at all. Ebay and Amazon are our only hope!
My Girlfriends mostly into dental floss and lace so no good to me.. and how dare you, i dont wear cheap lingerie...
Ive got an expensive black gimp outfit with some Led's so i can look like Vader

Considering the Bluefin representative said something BIG was coming this summer, I beg to differ.

Hi I've been lurking these boards and a few others for over a year, always forgetting to register. I'm affiliated with Bluefin, the company that Bandai uses to distribute the Star Wars products to U.S. retailers. I am not from Bandai Japan itself, but I am in constant communication and reporting with their departments on a daily basis. I am a model enthusiast though my subject material is often not dedicated to firm accuracy, but instead what new creative interpretations that could be inserted into that source material. More or less I'm a big airplane and sci-fi fan.
I just wanted to update on the following U.S. schedule that Disney/Lucas has authorized Bandai Japan to put into the U.S. thus far. These will be available at u.s. local hobby shops as well as online stores.

1/144 NEW item that will be up for pre-order in about a week
1/144 Millennium Falcon (The Force Awakens version)
1/48 AT-ST
1/72 Y-Wing
Will update this again after more information is confirmed. The reason it only goes to March is because that's when the fiscal year ends for Japanese companies. I can assure you there is a large item coming out in the summer months though. Hopefully Star Wars Celebration will allow us to bring the prototype of it to the U.S.
