exia r2- no 00-like legs for articulation? =(
And it seems that the r2 can be equipped with the 7 sword system

[LordStrike]

i really hope we get 0 Gundam in 1/100 edition o.o

[duotiga]

The blurb about the Arche mentions that its transformation is via part swapping.

My question is what transformation? Is it just referring to removing the escape unit? Ir is this something it didn't do in the series?

And I'm glad O Gundam comes with both the condenser and cone units.

The Archie was based on the Zweil Turbulence which did transform into a MA. IT coulda just carried on into the HG but they never showed it in the show.

Kinda expecting the "transformation" to be that for the Escape Pod, since it does take a chunk of the Arche's chest along...

hohoho... 0 gundam =)


any idea of the gn drive gimmick on the exia?

[beamknight87]

yes, I knew I could wait long enough to get that GN Sword III without having to purchase any version of the 00 Raiser which frankly, looks horrible. Exia FTW, best Gundam in the 00 series lol

[Spitfire]

^You do realize that the GN Sword II with Exia R2 is not the same as the one 00 uses right?

[beamknight87]

so what, I just wanted the new green edge blade. Never liked the 00 design and didn't feel all too enthusiastic to purchase a model I never wanted just for a weapon lol, this Exia R2 now changes things

I think it may be what we saw in episode 25 of the show, the flaps opening up as the drive produced that circular wave of particles?

[LightningZERO]

I will probably buy R2 to recreate the final fight scene

[atlans89]

Well, if Bandai continue using 00 to milk money, I wonder if they will release Seven Swords 00 like they did with Avalanche Exia.....
Look at the quality of the HG 00, I wonder what kind of quality a MG 00 serie will possess
Hope a MG Exia will be out this year

00 MG would probably have fingers which are movable, even greater detail, finer details added, weapons all included, GN Drive and head light up units, openable cockpit with Setsuna figure??

O Raiser would be the same in that its cockpit might be openable and it would have higher details, maybe even a Saji figure.

im not one to buy 1/144 kits because i dont like the size, and i can pretty much get all the mobile suits i like in MG but i think ill get the Exia R2 just for the heck of it.
