Whoa,
Just out today, DML USA is offering a deal that's hard to pass up if you're in the market for this model kit and upgrade set, take a look here!

And look closely at the images....the 1/350 figgies from DML look FANTASTIC!

WOW
I just read this post (and checked the ad) after I read the Tamiya 350 figures posting.. what a DIFFERENCE. Sorry the shouting, but just compare the two figures.... I rather have 6/8 of the Dragon ones than 100 of the Tamiya ones.. answers the question "Yes, you CAN mold good looking 350 people in plastic".

So tempted...... you know, this place is like the Borg, resistance is futile Cheers, James

My sentiments exactly, mate....I'm not sure if Tamiya rushed production to be in the market with Fujimi and DML, but it's a no-brainer, IMO, when it comes to the 1/350 figgies....if the real ones are even HALF as good as the pre-production images, DML will be pumping these things out by the thousand's....
