Description After I came back from Germany, besides my work in daytime (and over-time work in evening), I had been preparing for Wonder Festival. Wonder Festival is Japan's biggest sculpters / modelers convention and latest one has been held on Feb. 25 Sunday, at Tokyo Big Site where is also famous as the place of Comic Market.
(Please refer to below)

What I really wanted to buy is the one shown above;
-1/144 ADFX-01 Morgan from "Ace Combat Zero" (TAC & Chawanmushi).
I visited their booth only to find it was sold out. They told me they could only prepared a few pieces of the kit while they had announced they prepare 15 pcs at their website. I also failed to buy a rare-color version Transformer which my friend asked me to buy.
Then here is my "bought" list;
-Figurine Mrs. Pepperpot from anime "Antie Spoon"(Hyoutanyama-denki)...*1
-Figurine Leina Stol from anime "Machine Robo : Revenge of Cronos" (Cherry Blossom)...*2
-1/72 VF-19P parts for Hasegawa YF-19 from "Macross series" (Gokigen-seimitsu)
-1/144 Drop Tank for JASDF Mitsubishi F-2 (Platz)
-1/144 P-51B Mustang (Sweet)
-some cheap toys
Now I am happy surrounded by high-quality models!

Don't worry.
Kotobukiya's doing a Morgan of their own soon.
Should be good.

Those modified ADFs looks like eastern block jets from 80s, just like CFA 44 Nosferatu...

I have the 1/100 ADF-01 Falken from Bandai...kinda makes me wish that Bandai would produce the Morgan or the Fenrir too, these planes are awesome.
They (or maybe Hasegawa) should also make some waterslide marking decals of the entire Ace Combat series' planes too.

Tom107 In reply to BoggeyDan [2008-09-16 03:57:41 +0000 UTC]

1/100 Falken was a very nice kit, but unfortunately no other Ace Combat planes followed. Bandai should produce more, as they are now the lisencer of AC series. But their biggest interest for now is Sky Crawlers models. I think it is a mistake on marketing. Sky Crawlers is an Oshii movie, ovbiously not a one for air-combat excitement.

BoggeyDan In reply to Tom107 [2008-09-16 04:37:12 +0000 UTC]

Makes a lot of sense, since I don't see a lot of gamers/otaku that are both World War II enthusiasts and anime fans.
Even stranger is the fact that Project Aces (the creators of Ace Combat) is making a Sky Crawlers game for the Wii.

So Bandai, if you're reading this, PLEASE give us already EX Models of the Morgan, the Fenrir, and the Nosferatu!!!

Are you setious i mean Ace and Expert were hard to beat on that level but if you use the right aircraft you should be able to at some point i cant tell what aircraft fits your fighting style but the SUPERs as i call them should work .
1.F-22 with XMAA
2.ADF-01 Falken with TLS
3.ADFX-01 Morgan with MPBM
Strategy for the gauntlet mission is also dicey becuase its a random assortment of squadrons.Best of luck to you beating it "and thanks friend see you again"..............

Ryuuhiken [2008-05-04 19:08:53 +0000 UTC]

Its awesome when you play the final mission using the "same" aircraft and color scheme as Pixy.Cuz when you do the oposing knife (after youve owned him) it looks like a mirror (i.e. two sides of the coin) .Nice pic man..."and thanks friend see you again"..............

Thank you for comment!
Yeah, the last duel between Pixy is a simple One-on-One but it has many dramatic elements inside and you can enjoy it in many ways!

BTW I could never beat "Gauntlett" level at Ace difficulty orz

Bandai 1/100 ADF-01F Falken model kit have some Wardog emblems and national insignia. Beside this you have to print ones on your own.

I would pay so much money to buy one of those...
Oh. My. GOD.
I think I'll move to Japan. They have all the uberly cool stuff there. Here in America (or Argentina... or wherever...), we don't get awesome imported things like that.
But dude.

If I ever find that in a store... I don't care how much it would cost! I'll buy it!!! Too bad it's hand-made. But, the one who made it sure is skilled! x_x

Yeah, indeed! I hope that guy will produce as many kits as possible next time so that I can by one.

Yeah, sounds nice!
But, hehehe... it costs 5000 JP Yen (almost 40 USD)!
(It is not a mass production plastic kit, but produced nearly like hand-made)

Wow! The Wyvern... X-02...

Including one of my fighter squad (171st)...

Though they're not as detailed as your models...T_T

Tom107 In reply to Panzerfire [2007-03-02 12:08:09 +0000 UTC]

Sorry, it is Morgan flown by Pixy, not X-02.
Anyway those who loves X-02 are my friends!
