No problem! Just time it right when your going to clean off the excess as you want it to stick into those panel lines and don't worry about leaving too long to dry before cleaning, you can still easily clean it up with the cotton swab without any thinner. But if it really sticks onto the plastic, use a cotton swab with a drop of thinner(not too much as it may end up running along the panel lines and ruining your work) and rub it on to the intended surface then wipe it clean with a cloth, cotton swab/ball or tissue to remove any remaining ink residue.

Alright, caption below the shot of the Banshee's version of Unicorn's Magnum and Shield confirmed that they will be bundled with the HGUC Banshee along with the new armaments. Which is certainly very kind and uncharacteristical of Bandai. |

A quick examination of the HGUC Unicorns' runners will shed light upon the truth behind Bandai's reasoning :-
It's most likely Bandai is too lazy to remove the branch containing the old weapons from the runners, so they just copy everything wholesale and introduce a new runner containing the new armaments for the HGUC Banshee. But it's still puzzling as to why not an increment in the pricing with the intorduction of the one extra runner ? |

Not an uncharacteristic goodwill from Bandai at all; they simply can't separate the magnum for the Banshee NT-D since there are no "optional" gates on the Unicorn's NT-D's D plate.
Any translations on the HGUC Juaggu?

As for the price being the same, you have to remember that transparent plastic is pricey compared to normal plastic. The Banshee instead of having translucent plastic has the wonderfully "adored" (or hated) Strike Freedom brown gold. This drops the price, but because of the added parts for the new weapons, the price ends up being the same. On the other hand the Unicorn mode of Banshee is indeed 100 yen more since a new runner is being added without any changes.

But think of the possibilities if Bandai had thought way ahead of time here. Something tells me that the changes made to the Banshee was an 11th hour thingie and we might have transparent yellow instead of brown gold if everything was planned from the start. |

I think we still would have had that Strike Freedom/Sangokuden Gold, but a trade off being that we don't get the Unicorn's standard weapons. =/
Bandai seems to think gold=brown gold, which is unfortunate if you don't paint kits and also unfortunate in that the chemical composition of this on ABS plastic is weaker than the normal gray plastic. Anyone who has the MG SF or PG SF knows that those pieces are extremely weak and are prone to wearing away through simple movements.
