The FRS Joker is P-Bandai, right? Or did it get the reverse P-Bandai treatment? (Webshop on Japan, general release everywhere else.)

Noticed some physical stores carrying him. Not just hobby shops that normally don't carry P-bandai. Like Toy stores and stuff.

Joker, Genm and Amazing Mighty are the Preban exclusives, yes. Which physical stores are you seeing carrying him? Is it in the west? Because as an import that wouldn’t be out of the question.

Not a physical storefront, but BBTS has it for only $37, a buck less than the Cyclone Joker kit. Seems like some level of stock got released via wholesale.

Just in general the PB FRSes see good distribution and prices through BBTS I’ve found. Certainly not complaining!

If you're in the UK you can also pick up Joker and Genm at Gundammad.com

Need to finally build some model kits I've had I've had lying around, including Figure-Rise Zi-O, and want to a better job with them then I have in the past. What's a good suggestion for a still affordable clipper to use? I've just used nail clippers before, and that's not the prettiest way to do it.

A Mr. Basic Tool Set runs for around $25-30 and comes with a set of decent nippers if that's a good price point for you.

I live in asia. Joker's coming around basically my country's version of a "Toys R Us". In good numbers too. I really gotta get him, then.

The lines on the Figure Rise Faiz can easily be glowed with some red glow in the dark paint, of course

but how about the visor? maybe some white glow in the dark paint behind the visor?

FRS Double is down to $27 on Amazon US right now. What a great price for these kits. The usual $40 is a little high imo, but the results are just so nice.

Someday I'll take apart double to paint the cyclone half. I really should've done it before I built it.
