Hope so. The sooner this show fricks off from the public conscious the better
from Mercury model kits are now shelf warmers
>Does this scare Bandai?
what model kit isn't?
Models can sit a while before people buy them.
>Darryl's balde
not Mitsubishi Pajero tier but the japs should really search the web before naming stuff
They posted record profits for the Gundam IP so no I don't think Bandai is worried.
Just Aerial, the rest we don't know.

>’However, there has been remarkable growth since FY2020, which also coincides with the increase of Gunpla sales throughout the pandemic’
Hmmmm
get yuri, go broke?
Go yuri, make money.
>Witch from Mercury model kits are now shelf warmers
Only Shaddiq, everything else sold well.
I'm just waiting for the Calibarn to come in stock locally and then I've got the full set. Haven't been able to find the Weapon Display Base tho. Want one for my Darilbalde.
picked up a demi barding and zowort heavy today, and placed an order for a schwarette in my shop's next shipment
feels good to have a nice local place to support while buying products that make homosexuals seethe online
Come back to me if you already have a solution to the "Calibarn Sold Out Everywhere" problem.
My store has every WfM kit just sitting there. Same with IBO. I just fricking want some UC shit.
should've pre ordered moron
just got mine lmao
I tried to preorder, butthole, but to no avail.
OP's brain is shelfwarming
never seen G-witch but was popping off the hand seriously one of its gimmicks? That is even more moronic than everything is a funnel Gundam
Yeah it can pop off and it has 2 beam sabre arm drones on it's back to act as replacement.
Not sure why it just doesn't use the beam saber arms on it's back as drones instead of first popping of it's actual forearms with hands to use as drones and then use a pair of beam sabee arms as replacement.
Though they kinda course correct that and now it has an upgrade that just uses 4 beam saber arms as drones that can be used as a replacement arns if it's actual hands get fricked up.
Eh, it's basically the Doven Wolf arm gimmick except the suit comes with replacement attachments if the arms are lost in battle.
Doven wolf has a subarm hidden underneath. This is just putting beam saber into the polycap
Although the subarms are too weak to use the Beam Rifle IIRC.
It's probably also why the Supressor has to constantly burn through arms because the Silver Bullet has the same gimmick and the entire launchable arms weaken the internal frame to fit that all that shit inside it
Only the commander's Doven Wolf has wireless forearms which detach to reveal baby sub-arms. The standard Doven Wolf has wired forearms and no sub-arms because the retractable cable takes up that space.
Character goods are doing fine.
>now
Always were aside from a couple of them.
No, almost all sold out.
Witch was a mistake, when is the next Gundam series?
if you count build stuff, this october. Also there's that 3DCGI Gundam movie that seems to be a sequel to Gundam Igloo, happening whenever
>when is the next Gundam series?
Considering the gap between IBO and WfM it seems like we've got a fun eight years ahead of us, anon.
All seriousness though, I'd imagine it depends on how bad of a flop Witch was. If it did okay, maybe we'll see a new Gundam in the next 1-3 years.
I honestly wonder how bad a series would have to do for Sunrise to stop doing TV series and just stick to OVA/movie content.
G-witch isn't a flop.
Many of the kits are either lacking that wow factor or the associated pilot wasn't written to be compelling enough. They had the kits before they wrote the show, and they didn't fill the wienerpits well enough.
The only actual Shelf Warmers in the WFM line was the Michaelis. Everything else sold fine initially and whatever's on shelfs now are from the 2nd/3rd wave of reprints.
The Chuchu kits, Heindree, Ticklabang, and a few others were also big flops.
I hear the Demi-Trainer (both versions) did okay but it was the expansion weapons set that nuked. Shame about the Heindree, I actually like it. Doing a Tikbalang kit was silly in the first place because it’s barely ever used in the show. It’s not like Base Jabber that appeared basically constantly throughout Zeta and ZZ, it’s only in two or three scenes
>The Chuchu kits,
They weren't. The weapon set was but the kits were not.
>Heindree,
Shame but the Pente replacing it in the duel did hurt it.
>Ticklabang
Make sense since it was only in ep 15.
Chuchus sold better than everything but the Gundams
The only stuff that shelfwarms is the expansion kits and shit from Gr*ssley, everything else sold great
I wish. I want me a Calibarn at not outrageously inflated price.
The show is over now. What did you expect?
>Implying the new Freedom will not fly off shelves once it's revealed.
It also has the power of being a new Okawara design
>Okawara design
What's an Okawara
Some boomer
Designer of the original Gundam
>Witch from Mercury model kits are now shelf warmers
They aren't
>Does this scare Bandai?
No, figures and merch are still being made.
I only buy regular Dilanza for the Felsi association, and chuck out the Lauda parts.
Bandai already got what they wanted
And still getting more
>meddle with the show because you're worried about shelf warming kits
>kids become shelf warmers because of your meddling
Prophetic.
At Yodobashi Camera, everything that isn't bought within a week of release is a shelf warmer.
if this show's kits shelfwarming fricks over the HGUC and MG lines even harder than AMAIM did, i think im going to go insane.
I don't buy gunpla anymore because Tomino says it's bad for the environment and the Earth
Dunno nog, That kit is one of the two kits tnat I want to pick up but I can't find it anywhere
WFM suits have some the worst names I swear. This one is called the "vulva".
You gotta a problem with suits named after the female reproductive system?
Yeah
Suits and characters being named after female reproductive organs is a staple of Gundam, this is one of the few things that G-Witch does that actually makes it feel like a Gundam show
The name Gundvolva is wasted on this machine because it doesn't have a revolver
I bought this as my first kit about two weeks ago and had a lot of fun building it. My panel lining isn't the best but I had fun, topcoat comes in the mail this week for me to finish him up. Now I have 3 more kits waiting for me to start on them. I was surprised at how fragile he is though, his knee pads and horn especially just fly off if you look at him the wrong way. Still love him though. And no I have never watched a Gundam anime just liked his design.
thinking of getting the schwarzette to customize, I'm not risking funding any future wfm projects right?
