Not only Japanese kits have higher quality at lower prices than GW (even taking into account the so called GW´s exclusiveness) but they can do this for a instant noodles' promotion! Two different colors on the same sprue on the cheap! Why GW refuses to learn from other makers (even if they apply higher prices)?
Currently I have the following from Dougram (using the btech naming conventions) a new kit Shadow Hawk, an old Scorpion and a revoltech Griffin.
I'm praying that the Battlemaster gets also a new kit.

Second rate plastics of inferior quality and design that clearly profit from GW's IP and are more expensive to boot. You should be ashamed of yourself Sas

You complaining Fafnir? Try living close to the source of temptation Went to Volks and had to run away to keep my wallet closed. Takara reissued the Dougram 1/144 and 1/200 collection in one box for 4000Y. I buy that box I die at the hands of my wife

I know what I'm getting next May. I've been waiting a long time for that Battlemaster... if only the Wolverine was the same size size than the Shadow Hawk :( (I know that FASA were the ones that messed the scale)

Spoiler:
Kaiyodo is making 1/35 scale capsule toy model kits of various Maschinen Krieger power armors. If the picture loaded properly, you should see an assembled and unassembled AFS suit. The lineup will also include the SAFS power armor and the Fireball power armor. They come in drab green, desert tan, clear, and florescent pink.
Here's the three suits in green
With a bit of work filling holes and some paint, they look pretty nice.
All pics shamelessly stolen from Hobby Search. You can get a set of 12 from them for 5,000 yen or you can get them from HLJ for 4,800 yen.
I Like MachinenKrieger but their kits are not cheap and mostly too big, from Kaiyodo means that will be reasonably priced
When you find them drop me a mail.
