We've already seen the original forms for Bael, Barbatos, and Flauros.

We already did? Together with the weapons? Well then that makes my question meaningless.

The 4th form of the Barbatos in season 1 was specifically stated to be a recreation of the Barbatos' original appearance. All signs point to Bael being in its original armor configuration, on account of it being a particularly important symbolic piece within Gjallarhorn. Bandai's already released model images of the Flauros in its original color scheme before it was painted in the Ryusei-Go colors--and as it was apparently defeated in battle during the Calamity War, it is most likely unchanged from its original incarnation.

The only one we don't know the original form of is the Gusion--all we know is that the Rebake setup that Tekkadan created restored much of its original functionality, so we know it had a classic Gundam setup. Aside from specific setups that would depend on it, like the Kimaris Vidar, the weapon sets of the Calamity War-era Gundam Frames are largely meaningless as they'd most likely be swapped out as situations warrant, much like they do now.

makes me wonder why they haven't made 1/100 scale or even Master Grade versions of the G-Reco suits, yeah i know the show has controversies surrounding it but the suit designs were sorta cool, i mean the Grimoire is popular for some reason, at least AGE somehow got MG treatments minus the canceled Gafran,

also we need a 1/100 or MG G-Self, the HG version is not that good.

Give it time. G-Reco is a flop just like X, so it will take time. Age is an anomaly where Bandai was in a hyperactive mode in producing MGs when the show was still airing. But now that G-Reco has done airing, Bandai will need a stronger reason to make G-Reco MGs. It took more or less 18 years for MG X and 19 years for MG DX to be released after their flop show ended. So that’s probably the amount of time that we must prepare to wait especially now that the status of MG releases are becoming more and more uncertain.

MG Age-3 Normal & MG Age-FX also got cancelled mercilessly, don’t forget that.

Eh, I'd settle for the RoDa G-Self while waiting for the MG for another decade.

Why is the status of MGs uncertain?

They have been seeing less and less releases over the years, with more focus being shifted to RG and stuff like the 1/100 IBO line, which are both at/close to MG quality, yet cheaper

Barbatos' other arm is bigger than the other one? That's one sound robot.

There are OO designers that are part of the IBO team right?

I wonder if the Dantalion and his backpack-to-armor gimmick is originally an idea for the Virtue family.

Faux Mecha · 2017-03-11, 02:57

i can't believe it took me time to noticed Dantalion's shield/claw weapon has a demonic-looking skull face on it which i am not sure was intentional.

Dantalion needs a 150 Gerbera Straight.
