Kubara items fall into two categories.
1. Legitimately unique items (e.g Psycho Wand). These are the rare drops I'm talking about; current plan's that all unique kubaras and all manufacturer gear above a certain rarity (11* or so) will be treated that way, so for instance Lightning Espada (14ish* GRM sword) may drop exclusively from, say, level 150+ Polavohra, while Huge Cutter (10* GRM sword) could drop from any enemy on Parum between levels 75 to 100.
2. Kubara copies (Rodoc, De Ragan Slayic, etc). I don't know exactly where I'm putting these yet, but they're aimed at being customizable--very low base stats, but sky-high maximum grinds. Because of the new grind system, this means you'll be able to make them have pretty much whatever stats you want. Of course, in retrospect, that falls back into the "why would you waste that many grinders trying to turn a Viedema into a usable weapon" trap... this will require more thought.
The colony's going to both drop and sell an arbitrary selection of manufacturer items. Probably not everything (this is a lot of items!), but a good range of them, most likely.
(All examples are strictly hypothetical.)
