You are so right.  The fit is perfect.  The only part that needs a little work is where the back pack slides onto the MS.  Just a little filing and slides on and off perfectly.

the kit was sent to japan already. the customer should be doing the casting and selling to his close friends by now.

I have some photos from my cell phone which show the kit overall appearance back in oct before the last refinement. Once the non selling period ends I will give more update to you guys!

Hey Ako,
I am working on the first of the BD conversion kits  and I seem to have lost the collar piece to one of the kits.  I fell on the floor and must have rolled away.  Is it possible to get another one?  If so just let me know how much for the part and shipping.

Thanks
Matt

If we can arrange it to save on shipping, I will be in Hong Kong from Feb 8th to the 11th. I can meet up with you in Mong Kok to pick up the part for MVM.

Hey Matt,

Cool, figured I would offer. :) I'll try to snap a few shots of the G-System store for you this year. :)

I am in Singapore right now and its fantastic so far, can't wait to get to HK though for the nerdy shopping.

That Efreet conversion is looking wicked, very savage. I like it! I was also wondering if there are any updates on the sentinel GM-III plastic conversion kit. I'm really looking forward to that one. Thanks.

Hey Ako,

Is the Efreet going to include the metal pieces in the WIP Pics? (spikes and power cables how about thrusters)  Also is it based off of the Gouf 2.0?

Thanks
Matt
