Tired of the endless wait for Alter’s Full Metal Panic! ARX-7 Arvalest? or put off by its high price tag?
Well, fret no further because Kotobukiya is releasing its very own version of Arbalest for less then US$10! [ Hobby Search is selling it at 797yen/7.52Â USD!. ] And there a release date set for it; 25th October, much better than Alter’s ‘Winter 08′.






This Arbalest is a non-scale and stands approximately 15cm all, consisting of 50 parts.
I’ve thought of getting this but the ball joints from it are nothing compared to our usual gunpla joint which worries me. But its pricing at less than $10 might just be the deal-breaker for me to grab this. I’ll just wait a little longer when this dude reach my local hobby shop before deciding where or not to buy it.
So are you gonna pick up Kotobukiya’s Arbalest this October or are you going to sit back & wait for Alter’s Arvalest a little longer?
*Update (26/12/08): Alter 1/60 ARX-7 Arbalest has been now set for May 2009 release.

@sev0107,
unfortunately, there hasn’t been any official release from Alter as on when we’ll be seeing the Arbalest on sale. I’ll do an update as soon as there’s any news on its release. Till then, all we can do is wait.

@Boo,
I agree with you that the quality of it looks kinda off. Likewise, I might get together with other kjits when I make my next plastic model purchase, just to see and experience it myself.

Looks cheap. Will pass.

It looks a bit…..weird???Not as high quality as a gunpla,but maybe acceptable…since Alter’s price is very unreasonable….This one’s very cheap,although yo could see that the details are very off….Anyway,i think i’ll get it when it reaches Indonesia….
