Perhaps, but after they have exhausted the lead gundams/opfor suits first. A possible reuse of RG Zeta's frame would be Hyaku Shiki, being a Char's MS.

That'll be awesome, but I would like a RG ZZ Gundam first.

Hmm, new images for the upcoming Buster Gundam.



I wasn't all that keen on the Buster's design, never have been, but the details have really done it some favours going by that, and I suddenly really really want one.

How about we get the other MG kits for the Age series first?

MG Age-1 Flat (w/ backpack)
MG Age-1 Flat (w/ armor)
MG Age-2 Normal
MG Age-2 Double Bullet
MG Age-2 Normal (Special Ops)
MG Age-2 Darkhound
MG Age-3 Normal
MG Age-3 Fortress
MG Age-3 Orbital
MG Age-FX

After we get all of those, then maybe we can get some RG's.. =P

Speaking of the Age-1 Flat, anyone else feel like Bandai might do what they did with the SD Age kits and simply have all the parts for the backpack and armor in 1 kit? So people will end up getting 3 sets of it to display it all?

LOL

Man~ If Bandai did that.. lol.. GENIUS!

They should hire me to make decisions for their GunPla business.

Have done both MG Duel Assault Shroud & MG Blitz, i say the new SEED MG line details are superb. Buster is next for me on the list

I rather see them not go bankrupt tbh, they make some unexpected moves at times but at least they do market research.

[duotiga]

*sarcasm to Nike

They SHOULD HIRE ME instead of you as have done more variants kits than you since my collection started in 2004.

Is just a matter of time before they would be making it for ZZ. What I wonder is will they do RG F91 or V/V2 . That would be something especially V/V2

I would LOVE to see F91 done right in RG ver. The fins (or whatever they called) on F91's shoulders look so tiny and bad in MG ver. It doesn't live up to the original design (the RD is better looking). As for V2, that'd be nice too, but I'm still waiting the MG of it.

i just ordered the MG blitz since its back in stock at HLJ^^
and you know what? i guess its time to bust out the airbrush again i already have all the paints i need (i hope) and a ton of gloss top coat, i just need to get some thinner now.
it will be completely painted. every single piece.
at this point i just dont know whether i will paint the inner frame with chrome paint or in a darker shade... the chrome spray paint that i have is actually for cars but it works really well on plastic. it is also extremely durable so it would be perfect for the frame. it would also be a good contrast to the black armor. ALSO, from the pictures that i have seen so far the frame seems to be molded in a ligher shade of grey anyway. the paint also sint super shiny, its just a very nice silvery matt metal finish.

Just get some Tamiya or Mr. Hobby and get it in gun metal. I love when inner frames of MG and PG are in gunmetal unless it's like Strike Freedom then in gold (for example)...

i painted the very dark blue pieces on my MK-II 2.0 with gunmetal and its almost black. thats way too dark for the blitz in my opinion. it is an AMAZING color and i really love it but it just doesnt fit in this case in my opinion^^
also, i really dont want to pay 8 bucks for a can of spray paint because they dont have gunmetal as a small pot here :P
also also, it would take a damn long time for it to cure properly and even with top coat it would still scratch of easily when applied to the frame. the chrome-ish paint that i have doesnt scratch at all.

[suiton629]

Just get a bottle of the Tamiya acrylic paint. It's so much cheaper and it's less of a health hazard.

I haven't purchased a spray can in a while. I remember the first time I used it it stunk up the house for a while to the point where I had fans blowing like crazy (had like 4 fans on high setting) as well as the 6 air purifier units in the house.

>_<

Took a few hours but got the house smelling fresh again.

Just use the Tamiya acrylic paints and either air brush or just hand brush it. Simple. Just mix a little bit of paint with a few drops of water, mix it, and then brush it.

i can see that happening after the next seed suit, they seem to be doing SEED for the HD releases. Way to make money from SEED fans, and new fans. then their doing the old UC show suits. RX, and zakus were a given at the start of the line.

I see it like this.
UC: Zeta
Seed: another seed Suit.
Uc: Hyaku Shiki
Seed
Uc: Double Zeta or an Enemy Suit like
Seed
UC: Nu Gundam
Seed
uc: Sazabi

I really doubt we will be getting this much SEED unless they start going into SEED Destiny. Kira and Athrun's suits I can totally see, I don't however believe we will see them go beyond them outside of maybe Prov as a bad guy.

Glad to see Zeta is coming up. If it goes well then I have much more hope that the Transforming leads are will be here closer then later. So now I just needt o wait for ZZ and Wing to have my two favorites in RG form.

[suiton629]

Would rather see more MG and RG from the 00 and Age series.
