Ugh too many good kits coming out, probably gonna have to put this beast on hold until after I get the Rozen Zulu

[bio9205]

I'm saving up for both the Byarlant Custom and the Rozen Zulu. I'm already prepared to give up on the Clanche Custom and AGE-3 Fortress

[firefox]

I find most UC unicorn suits extremely ugly and uninteresting. Only Sinanju and Unicorn gundam itself are woth my attention. I have both as RD figures so no model kits of those.

I gonna go mental with clanche custom. I hope we still get that G-bouncer custom and the chronos.

Yesterday i received my Robot Damashii AGE-1 normal which i got out of a HLJ sale. What a great figure! So underestimated, the promo pictures (where he almost always stands bent forward) don't do it justice!

Unicorn designs are....ugly? Thats probably the first time in my life I have ever heard that lol, not disrespect, to each his own

Im with you on the Clanche Custom & Khronos >.> its a pretty easy remold of the Zeydra imo, the only problem I think which is holding them back are the AGE sales.....

I don't, so I appreciate it when people do post the images.

Kinda have to agree with firefox, I just can't find the vast majority of UC suits to be appealing. Some of them are, though.

Yeah, for those who don’t like the Zulus, GMs, Zeon’s Marine Suits, Rezels, Jegans, Loto, Anksha, or Byalant will be pretty much left in the cold. I can understand the sentiment. Nothing’s wrong with that.

Left in teh cold???

There is more to gundam then UC! I got AGE 1/144 HG's and seed MG's that are fantastic and a MG tallgeese in januari . I'm don't feel like left in the cold at the moment. I do feel that tehre is inconsistence. There are for instance too much designs, bandai should focus more a a suit and let it do it stuff for more then 1 episode.

I like some UC suits, i even ordered a 1/100 MG rezel (mainly because of the 50% discount ). i'm even building a 1/100 MG Hi-Nu gundam!, even if it is inferior to the 1/200 HCM pro version of it...

You do realize that I was talking in the context of Gundam Unicorn, right? I wasn’t talking about the whole UC Gunpla, let alone Gunpla in its entirety .

On the subject of Unicorn designs I also fall in the area of finding a lot of them ugly. However I actually find that part of the appeal to me, that Byarlant Custom for example, just looks like an absolute brute (haven't seen episode 4 so I don't know yet if it was a brute). And that brutality makes for a appealing and interesting design to me.

That said the Byarlant is not on my purchase priority list.

I kinda know what you mean. I'm not a UC fan at all as you all know. But I have to admit that some of the designs are decent. But my love of Gundam 00 followed by Gundam Age/Gundam Wing to a certain degree makes me disregard (I will admit) other series. =P

Oh and..

For me the appealing thing about the UC suits is their detail, and some of them are really unique, like the Byarlant Custom.

Also, looking at the HG Full Granza - the armour looks like it's too big. It looked much sleeker in the show.

Well, it is an early build, and it's also a HG. If we get it in MG, I would definitely expect that version to look sleek and streamlined. =)

You should check out UC4 & 5, designs are ncie and the mechas dance around. Ep4 has superb grunt combat

Thats what happens when you do the Obari workout.

it's a full armor, so honestly i doubt it'll look sleek at all in model form, It wasnt really sleek in the show eithr to be honest.

i'm more interested in the backpack then the actual armor. Armor will make you less sleek, see all other gundams with armor like Alex NT en duel assault shroud.

I received my RD Strike dagger today, in some area's it's a step back from the AGE-1 normal. Why Banday? Why do you have to mess everything up? Can't you just keep what works and add some hardpoints to fit weaposn on??????

[Araxiel]

I kind of hope the full-armour Age-1 stays chunky like that. [I imagine it'll be parts over the top of a Normal rather than moulded-on armour, so hopefully so.]
