They're trading figures. Vic Viper's in the set as well.

I saw this set on Amazon just yesterday actually. I’m not entirely sure if I want it or not. Most of what is in the set I don’t care about.

I have the black one. It came with R-Type Command. Amazon still had the toy in stock to go with R-Type Command last week and it was on discount (which is when I finally broke down and bought it).

Well I'm impressed that they are offering limited time R-9's with the purchase of the game, I was actually hoping they would have a 144 type scale of the ship that you could build but that's good too.

Wow, I assumed RGG had the Vic Viper one at least already.

Only place I know that has the set still:

http://www.amazon.com/Shooting-Historia-Co...16562869&sr=8-1

NCSX and Play Asia were offering them months ago. I never bought any because there only were two that I wanted and the random risk didn't sound good.

I'm way happy to get the R-9 with R-Type Command though... which I guess I'll get to whenever I get through SRWAP once. >_<

Uh, technically I already have 1/100 models of Vic Viper from II, III and Sky Girls already, and waiting on I, IV and V. I'm looking to complete my collection of... everything Vic Viper...ish. Even the ZOE2 model >_>

Nice colors, stickers and a good selection of extra parts if you don't like the instructions' default armament. However, Atelier Sai's too lazy with a lot things, and you may need to spray or use glue, and sand a lot of edges before they'll fit. Overall, a nice piece of work but very, very volatile. It's almost impossible to pick up and "fly" around without a piece dropping off randomly.
