I saw Build Hazard around those prices well before Metal Build was announced and the ones you listed are Seihous which wasn't on my mind...I thought we were just going off of regular exclusives my bad....

I never saw Hazard that low prior to Metal Build.

And I thought we were just talking any Tamashii Nations exclusive. Apologies if I came across rude.

Well I should say that Realizing isn't -quite- Tamashii exclusive -- it was a normal PB exclusive, just for a very very limited time.

Lol that's because it comes and goes that quick and this is coming from someone who's been stalking Mandarake since last year �� and my apologies as well for not thinking of all exclusives....it's just Build Hazard is always on my mind because I haven't been able to get one and when I see the sold out listings his price stays high. I just got back into buying on Mandarake so I'm wasn't aware of his previous commanding prices

So, some dude living literally in the same village as mine is having a yard sale of sorts. I noticed two of those for sale was some SHFs. A Drive Type Special . for 60$ and a Drive Type Speed for 40$. They still got the box and stuff.

I only have 65$ on me right now. I like Type Special, but I also need a mainline Drive. Do I get special and wait for a model kit, or just grab Speed?

I'd say go for Type Special and wait for the eventual FRS kit of Type Speed.

Yeah, FRS Type: Speed is inevitable; and to boot it'll come with more stuff -- at the very least the sword, and I'm absolutely expecting Type: Flare parts.

If you're into FRSes and don't mind them over SHFs, I would wait. But I will say that 40$ is a very nice price for SHF Drive, and really not far off how much FRSes cost! If he's a fav of yours my advice is to pay the slightly higher price, and if not I'd say grab him and sell him to someone else who'd love a fairly cheap SHF Drive.

I guess. Though, the height gap might look janky.

Actually planning to get the FRS Decade and Joker around after I finish school, so I'd have time build them. So, I'm definitely into rider kits. This would've been an easy pick had Type Special not been there. Tho, this is probably just my "movie bias" talking.

The height is really only noticeable if you have him standing stock straight up next to other SHFs, if other FRS kits are anything to go by.
