Reccoa and Glemy were a mistake, they're nothing but trash.

Great work! A very clean build for your first. I love G-Self, myself. Probably will pick up this kit soon.

Great work, both of you.

Slowly making progress on my Byarlant. I'd say it's 60 percent complete and is fully space capable. Lacking offensive capabilities, though.
It looks pretty big. Looking forward to the finished product, dude!

It's turning out pretty well, if it get too big but still lacking weapon, just do what most gundam villain do. Add tons and tons of funnels.

Is it the one from Unicorn? That ripped apart that guerrilla army with a pea shooter and a laser blade, then left without a word lol.
Yep. The Byarlant is awesome and way underused. Such a badass MS. Not to mention there's always the awesome fan rumor speculation (that sadly the manga killed) that it was piloted by the ghost of

I'm hoping for n RE myself. Granted I'm not a fan of the suit, but I also love several model kits of designs I hate (OOq, Turn A, and Exia RG) so I tend to love buying kits of designs I dislike lol.
So having a birthday celebration for my old man my parents start whistling to their one year old grandson to keep him entertained while the cake is divided up and it sounds Just...like...this.
Thanks. And yeah, it's much larger than the standard 1/144 HG kit.
I feel someone at the design made a mistake and thought that management said "more thrusters!" when they actually said "more funnels!" because this suit is filled with them. Qubeley had a funnel butt while this suit has a thruster butt.
I'm with you on that. I think it won't happen though. At best we'll get a RE but I don't mind.
I'm so sorry.
Bad times are ahead. Your life will be turned outside down because of a jealous scientist and the government.
We have seen the show exclusives as least.
Clear and metal Green Unicorn Gundam (looks closer to awakening to me then anything) Raiser and Wing Proto Zero. I might have been tempted for Zero but I'm hoping we start to get leaks soon.
MG Wing is the best transforming MG on the market.
Granted that is partly because Wing's is simple, but it is rock fucking solid and what's more they made every piece that can be a problem work.
Wings have ridiculous articulation, are not back heavy and hold a pose for years. The huge Buster Rifle has a simple lock that allows you to do anything you want with it and even its monster of a shield works very well and has the cracking design in full force.
Biggest down sides are the hands (which seemed to have popularized the switches, though they first showed up in this form on the Victory ver ka) and it was touched up by Katoki so it's not exactly the TV design.
Double post but worth it.
New line of SD Standarts.
Kicks off with 78-2 and Aile Stike. Shareable weapons and back packs. Wing Zero Ew and Exia are the follow ups. Strike Freedom Unicorn, ?? And OO teased.
HgUC Leapord Destroy. Looks like they are going all in on HGAW
mG Red Warrior. First MG based on Tri Fighters.
RG Astray Red to finish off the PG line.

They brought in Justice to match Freedom, they will need to bring in Blue Frame L with the tactical arms.
Wow. Nice frame. PG 1/144 tier. I wonder if they'll do a Tactical Arms/Tiger Pierce add on.
Maybe a Red Kai P Bandai?

Of course we got a new Freedom, because its not gunpla unless we get 7 of them a year.
Hah I called it being the Red frame! Was an easy call to make though... Aside from Unicorn there aren't any more PG kits that aren't RG yet so after this they can move onto some new subjects.at least.
Disappointed with the MG Red Warrior. I'll stick with the HG. The Origin kits look great!! I'm really loving the Origin Zaku II I have. Best Zaku in HG.
I'm sure we will. Just may take a few years. After all we've gotten a lot of X love in model kit love over the last few years.
I just hope we get X Maoh over Crossbone Maoh. That and I need Wing F and a Build God would be nice.
Disappointed there's no MG G-Self. With only one new Recon kit being shown I wonder if this is the end of the Recon HG line. At 2,700yen this things is rather pricey for a G-self and backpack. Will be glad if the Recon line is finished so those resources and slots in the release schedule can be filled with better stuff.
Edit:
Also it does look like we are getting Ortega's Zaku with the giant Ax as a regular release
Edit 2:
Looks like those new SD kits are also designed so that their parts will work with HG kits as well to make customs. I usually skip SD releases but may have to pick one of these up now.

I still don't understand the popularity behind it.
Moving on.. The Dijeh and Hyaku-Shiki 2.0 look mighty fine, I may have to pick one of them up. Probably the Dijeh because I'm going to hold out some hope for the Delta Gundam.
I like the Goufs, but I want the B type. Surprised there's no Origin RX-78-2 though, but then again, it hasn't been spotted in the OVA.
Edit: Those new SD kits actually look really nice, I may need one.
Gundam Ace will be coming with some extra weapons for the Revive RX-78-2 as well. Two separate releases even.
Really hoping that along with the Revive version of the RX-78-2 that eventually we will get the PF-78-1 Perfect Gundam. Perhaps as a HGBF Takeshi Iori version.
Also there is a new BB Knight Gundam coming.
And man looking at that RG Astray... that frame is going to be pretty difficult for anyone who wants to paint it!!

I guess I am one of the few that waiting for freedom and strike freedom mg 2.0 or Ka.

The Freedom is to Gundam as the Nissan Skyline is to Gran Turismo.
I'm kind of leaning towards the Crossbone, but I loved the improvements they made to the original X.
The fact they went straight to the Rinascita makes me think the regular Fenice is a ways off.

Agreed.
I still have a hard time believing it because Wing F had the longer run and seems to be far more popular the Wing F/R. Still I do have my tin foil hat that says this is all because they plan Crossbone Maoh so you can create the WX Strike.
Hope the MG is real, but I don't think so. They would at least tease the back pack it's coming with be it perfect or Aile.

Then is the Freedom the Impreza?
I think that be closer to Strike Freedom. As it stands overall I think since SF intro we get that more often and in bigger media pieces like games and stuff then the standard Freedom.
RX-78-2 is AE86 Trueno
Strike is Skyline GT
Freedom is STi/Impreza
Exia is RX-7 FD
Destiny is Lan Evo cause it's a wanna be Freedom that gets wrecked every time.
Too fake looking. It's kinda surprising how there's still no news on on MG G-Self, even though the show ended. Didn't Age get one really early?
Age 1 Norm, Sparrow, Titus hit right at the start of the second Age. 2 Normal and Dark Hound came later.
They teased Three Normal and FX with grey proto types, but it can be guessed that given how the Gunpla performed they where either delayed or scrapped out right like the Vegan MG.
2 Double Bullet launched much later along with Memories of Eden.
Yes. Tamiya sells one.
I figured this might happen so I went early this morning....
Day before official release shortly after shops open and already Petitgguy kits are almost gone.
Plenty of the other new kits still left. Picked up the new Guntank and The End as well as the Ballden arms arms. Skipped Dahack for now...
