My goddess finally arrived!

Wasn't able to preorder her on 1st wave at P-Bandai store but thankfully, they issued a 2nd wave and managed to order her within 10 secs before she sold out again

I wish P-Bandai to just let preorders open for a period of time for products then make a set of numbers for said product based on how many orders they received, that way no more scalpers or bots buying all the preorder stocks leaving non for collectors then selling them at mark up

PSA, there is a tool to extract the head of Lacus compass version included but since I don't read instructions, I only knew about it just now after watching reviews(I'm the type who postpones watching reviews till I get my copy), just used my hands carefully to swap them but do remove 1st everything you can like the ponytail, faces, bangs, wings, floating chest thingy, etc so you have more room to work with and don't use the hairpins as leverage, it will break as seen on a vid I posted a few threads ago and it is even mentioned in the instructions

I can now cancel my Amazon preorder which is way more expensive and I think the release date was pushed back to December

She pairs better with Kira as now both of them are wearing a pilot suit, would have like a non ponytail hair but I guess they can use it as an excuse to release another version of Lacus, hopefully her 1st appearance version
