Speaking of 00V variants, I'm still hoping that a 1/100 00 7 Swords is released eventually o.o.....

Well they've released an HG 1/144, but Bandai is pretty stingy on their 1/100s

Joints are always tight at the start.

But two things will always loosen them. Weight, and constant movement.

But it seems to me that the more serious problem would be the balance in the waist rather than on the GN Drives.

Well, it has got a lot to do with weight. The 00R can't do it's Trans-Am Raiser pose like in the show properly because of this.

Like so?

I'm more interested in the backstory for the 00Q Full Saber than I am in the kit itself, given the role the 00Q plays in the movie. Then again, most of the 00V stuff has strange backstory...

PG 00/7S? Not going to happen, seeing as nothing else in PG has gotten that kind of addons taken from side-story material. We might possibly get the 00Q or Exia in PG some day, though it won't be soon.

I'm hoping MG 00R is followed by an MG Reborns, or that we at least get that in 1/100 - way more interesting than most of the alternatives.

HG Gundam X-divider was practically a given, I think, since most of the work was already done in making the Gundam X. If Bandai wants to milk us properly, we'll be seeing G-Bits and the black version as well. A proper Gundam XX might also show up. Not sure about the grunt suits.

On the HGUC front, I'm kind of hoping for a Full Armor ZZ, and a Nightinggale to go with my Hi-Nu. Also *Give us some proper V-gundams in 1/144*. V, V', V2, V2 Assault/Buster - I'd love to show a V2 off next to a same-scale EX-S, just for the sheer David-and-Goliath factor. Even with the full kit, it would look like a dwarf...

But, most critical on my wish list right now, is more shelf space on which to put my gundams...

THIS

If they ever decide to release an HGAW Gundam XX, I wouldn't care how much they sell it for, I'd still buy it in a heartbeat

I think they did their best. 00 Raiser is a nightmare to turn into reality. That's why the 1/100 kit is so horrible. The PG from what I've heard is reasonable if not overpriced.

What makes me angry is that they had to ruin the other 3 S2 1/100 because of 00R. I heard the non waist movements for them is just to make it in the manner as 00R.

Fortunately, HG 00 Raiser is a Godsend.

I think it would but dont take my word for it.

Do you know what the builder used for the panel lining? I've heard Gundam Markers are pretty good, but I was wondering if there were any other recommendations.

From his website, Dalong uses just those plain Gundam Marker pens, the thin ones instead of the large felt-tip ones. He basically lays on the lines thick to show where the panel lines are on the model, he supposedly cleans them up later

I'm guessing he uses rubbing alcohol to do it? Speaking of PGs, do you guys think they'll release a PG 00Q?

I'd buy two HG 00Qs. One to torture on camera and spam Prime92 and you with.
The second one would be thrown at the wall whenever I see fit. Every throw recorded and added to my '00Q hate blog'.

I take it you don't like the 00Q?
