a model kit isnt always just about the looks. its also about articulation, balance and how you actually have to put it together.
you might not like the looks of it but that doesnt make it a terrible kit!
you are looking at it from an objective way only and completely ignore what lies under the relatively boring armor.
and when you look at it from a subjective way you will realize that the kit looks EXACTLY like the machine that appeared in one of the most iconic works of sci-fi ever. and lots of people love the kit because of that.
i mean, its not a coincidence that almost everyone recommends this kit as an absolute must have :P

99% of the time a model is on static display just to look at, it aint an action toy and how many times do you take of the armor after you built it? For most NEVER...

I rest my case

My MG OYW rx-78 gundam might be 20% less articulated then the 2.0 horror, it looks 1 miljoen times better, do the math

Spoiler for Not that much:

What's next, the Zaku live concert or Farsia? This was my first HG 00 kit; I just wish you can store the carbon blade on the MS itself.

Since the Teiren Taozi is a custom for ace Soma Peries, the distinctive pink also worked as a deterrent.

you completely ignored the fact that most people prefer a model that actually looks like what they saw in the show.
and besides, why would i want to buy a model that is less interesting to build and offers less features?

also, its a model kit and not a toy. you are always free to make it look better and more interesting!

Yeah I agree with you totally. It's fun to put together something that is structurally interesting. Then when you start thinking of cool extras you can do... Part of why it takes forever to finish a kit lol.

Just waiting slowly for MG Age-3 normal while doing the HG right now

[Appel]

i had fun with the HG. although HGs seem a little boring now after building the danazine^^

[Obelisk ze Tormentor]

duotiga, why don't you built your Destiny Heine Custom? I wanna see it!

[suiton629]

Do you think Bandai would take the MG Epyon EW and tweak it to create a new mold for Wing Zero Custom and do a Wing Gundam Zero (TV)..?

i can see them releasing a wing zero TV version but again, the EW version is just fine! it doesnt need a new release...
